I have noticed that those who pay off huge amounts of debt in a short
time usually have huge incomes already and are just simply wasting it
away to begin with.
Someone like myself with a very modest income and after paying the
nessasary bills has only a few dollars to pay extra on debt, there just
isnt any money left to make a differance.
I will still have five years with monthly payments to pay down about
$22,000
It Doesn’t seem like a huge amount but when it isn’t there it really
seems out of reach,but someone making a household income of 120,000 can
realisticly pay off 80,000 in a few years of tight budgeting.
