m*****y 发帖数: 1 | 1 Debt, the most accepted and dangerous obstacle to building wealth for
American, is continuing its growth without slowing down. Debt has become a
life norm as a vehicle to lead us to a better life. It allows us to own a
car, a home and many other believed to be necessities. No one in your life
to be surprised that you have a debt and debt is so normal that the majority
(56%) said that debt has “low” or “no impact” on their ability to
achieve financial security.
Now allow me to be very bluntly here. How many people around you who owes
higher and higher debt each year accomplished their financial paradise? Most
of them will forever in debt. You probably will argue that the debt will be
paid off at some point. A 2017 study from Experian and Credit.com, 73
percent of consumers had outstanding debt when they were reported deceased.
Here is another fact to show indebtedness has become such addictive disease
that many of us don’t realize. Per Northwestern Mutual 2018 planning and
progress study, 53 percent of Americans cited debt reduction as their top
2018 financial priority, average personal debt (exclusive of home mortgages
and among those with some debt) climbed higher to exceeding $38,000 in 2018
compared to just over $37,000 in 2017. More disturbingly, credit cards tied
mortgages as the leading source of debt, spiking from 19% to 25%.
