To think so, is to just make excuses for your bad choices. I highly recommend you pick up a copy of Dave Ramsey's book - Financial Peace. He also has a radio program that comes on every day. I started listening to his show and then bought his book. He will help to give you an understanding of debt and a strategy for paying it off and living debt free.

If you live in Orange, ca I know someone who has an opening! You can make a couple thousand a week, if you are good at talking to people! You don't sit at a desk, you go where ever you want to get people to go to an orientation, and if they go you get around 80. It really depends how many people go, you get payed more per person. Great job most people don't hear about! Work as an O.P.C for a time share! If you live in Orange, ca I know someone who has an opening!

It is best to only use credit cards when you can pay off the debt when the bill comes in. Otherwise, you are paying interest on those balances sometimes to the tune of 18-20% or higher annually. That doesn't seem like much but over time it adds up and would be better served by putting it into savings or investments. Education, homes and sometimes cars are acceptable forms of debt but if they can be avoided why not? Vacations and other non-essentials should be saved for so they don't create burdens later. By starting now to create a spending plan, saving for wants, and investing you will be able to live more comfortably than your contemporaries in the coming years who don't. Planning is always best.

School? House? Car? or Fun? Debt is not a bad thing. In fact, debt is a very good thing if you use it right. There is a difference between good and bad debt. Should you take a loan for college? Yes Should you take a loan for a car you can afford? Yes Should you take a loan for a house you can afford? Yes Should you go 5k in debt to buy some nifty gadgets? No. The 1k in credit card debt might be a problem. It largely depends on your income/expenses. I generally dislike credit card debt and would advise most people to pay these off asap. To make a long story short, borrowing is fine if you are doing it for the right reasons. Just be careful about what you borrow for and how much you borrow. What is your 5k loan for? School? House?

Live within your means. Follow those two rules and you will not be in debt like countless americans. Credit crunch, housing crisis, recession are terms that only people in debt are worried about. Im 22 with no debt and house and car paid in cash, thanks to hard work and not buying anything I don't need. Lower your standard of living. Do not buy what you can not afford. Live within your means.
