It is Possible to Have One Monthly Payment
 
It is crazy to think that the average American household currently holds eight credit cards. This is simply ridiculous in terms of debt. For many people they have an American Express, a Visa, a MasterCard, and probably several store credit cards. They then use all of these cards so they are carrying mountains of debt every month.
 
When you look at it it really does seem bizarre that consumers would carry around as much debt as they do, and quite frankly, it is because many of them don't realize that it is possible to only have one monthly payment instead of several. They want to get a debt consolidation but they don't realize that it is an option.
 
With a debt consolidation, consumers take all of their credit card debt and add it up. This tells them how much money they need to borrow in order to pay off all of their credit card debt. They then use the debt consolidation loan to pay off all of their existing credit cards leaving them with only the one monthly payment. This debt consolidation comes at a fixed rate so they don't have to worry about the credit card company changing their rates as they see fit.
 
Then their best bet is to get rid of all but one of their credit cards and to pay off their debt consolidation loan as soon as possible. This then leaves them, once paid off, with only the one credit card to their name. Their credit score is now better than it was before, and their stress level is assuredly better as well.
