Saving Money
If you have a
lot of different loans now is the time to put them "all
under one roof". Naturally you will have to examine quite
closely just where your money is going at the moment.
Look closely at how much you spend on current expenses
and where you can make cutbacks. All the usual living
expenses come in to the equation.
Mortgage
repayments, car insurance, life insurance, health,
electricity, food and fuel and heating costs are all
areas you are going to need to place under the microscope
and suss out where you can make savings. Diverting every
single cent you can, towards paying off your student loan
consolidation loan, is the best thing you can possibly
do.
Sometimes the
level of debt is so high that you are forced in to doing
things that you hate, like taking work which you do not
like to do but which pays well. Anything to do with
making money becomes the focus instead of focusing on
profiting from whatever you do. There is a difference.
One point of view focuses on a single dollar in the short
term, where as the other focuses on maximizing your time
to make money over the long term.
It's no secret
that most people live beyond their means and carry
continual debt with them all their lives like a mill
stone but you do not have to be one of these people. With
enough effort you can get debt free and you can live the
life you deserve instead of working it away for ruthless
finance companies.
The fact is
that the finance companies will bury you in debt if you
allow them to. They do not want you to re-finance or
consolidate your debt because they know that if you do
then they will lose the profit they were collecting from
the higher interest rate you were being
charged.
You see this
is all about money and selling money on at a
profit.
It is a little
like wholesalers selling goods at retail prices, no that
is exactly what it is like.
