How To Lower Your Credit Card Payments

Lowering your credit card payments can only happen in a credit card counseling, debt settlement and with bankruptcy. These three options are available to those consumers with $10,000 or more in credit card debt, medical bills and other unsecured items.
With a credit card counseling program you will not be able to lower your credit card payments because the creditors will require that you pay back the full amount that you owe plus fees and the reduced interest rate. Typically about 75% of the people that enroll in a credit card counseling program drop out within the first 6 months. The main reason behind the fall out rate is that the person with the credit card debt did not lower their credit card payments but rather just reduced the interest rate. If you are just looking to pay a company to pay your credit card bills for you credit counseling is the route to take. Don’t expect to lower your credit card payments in anyway.

Debt Settlement And Retirement
Our clients are comprised of people of all occupations. We have civil service clients, accountants, professional athletes and even financial planners that get paid to help others manage finances. For one reason or another they may be able to make a plan and tell some one to stick to it but lack the ability to remain diligent and stick to their own plan for retirement.
With personal savings at an all time low having a plan to live debt free at retirement is very important. You may have a percentage of your income going towards your 401k or other savings plan but you will need to take into account that you will need your expenses to be very low in order to live on your retirement savings. As an example if you are receiving a pension of $2,000 per month when you retire and your bills amount to $3,000 then you will need to supplement that income to keep the lights on. This is where the personal savings will come into play. You can use that money that you set aside every month to help you with the bills and other medical expenses.
When you retire after 25-30 years of mortgage payments you will own your house. This is great because you no longer have the mortgage as a monthly expense. If you have credit card debt though it can be a very precarious situation. Even 30-40k in credit card bills can cost you $1,000 + dollars per month. Debt settlement can be an effective way to reduce your debts so that at retirement age your hard earned savings can be used to enjoy life as opposed to paying your debts.
