Few people would refute that using a credit card could make day-to-day life more simple Cheap Douglas Costa Jersey , reducing the need to hold money and making it uncomplicated to shop online and by telephone.


On the other hand, having to pay with plastic can be a touch too easy, simply because it doesn’t always seem like you’re in reality parting with any money. This means the lure is always spend without taking into consideration the results too wisely, until you hear the threatening thud of a whopping credit card bill hitting the doormat.


If you were caught out like that Cheap David Alaba Jersey , the size of your credit card debt may appear overwhelming, but don’t panic – there are some simple steps you can take to start getting your debt back in balance.


Make an effort to make a little more than the minimal payments:


The minimum payments required by credit card companies have routinely gone down through the years. Where once it was typical to have to repay a minimum of 5% of your balance every month, it’s now common to only have to pay 2.5% or 3%. With payments this small compared to your debt, a huge piece of each monthly payment gets swallowed up in interest charges. Depending on the APR rate of your card Cheap Corentin Tolisso Jersey , up to 75% of each payment could be ‘lost’ in this way, meaning that it takes a very long time for your balance to reduce to any great extent.


By trying to repay more than the minimum, even if only by a little, you can speed this process up Cheap Christian Fruchtl Jersey , and in the long term you’ll end up paying much less in interest charges.


Focus on your card debts:


In case you have more than one credit card with different rates of interest, it feels right to concentrate on the one with the highest interest charges. This means not just the one with the highest interest rate, but the one which actually charges you most each month, which may have a lower rate but a higher balance.


Look at your statements to see which card is costing you most in interest per month Cheap Arturo Vidal Jersey , and try to focus on repaying this card first by putting any spare cash you have into extra payments while keeping to the minimums on your other cards.


Change your card:


The credit card market is very competitive, and rates have fallen over the last year or so. You might be saddled with an old card charging an old rate that is much higher than newer cards. If you can get a new card with a lower rate and transfer your account balance on to it, you could save a lot in interest charges, helping you to decrease your debt. If you can get a card with an introductory rate on balance transfers then all the better – you’ll receive a few months of interest free credit which you can use to really decrease your balance as 100% of every repayment will be helping to clear your debt.


Debt consolidation:


If enjoying a more affordable card isn’t an option or isn’t something you feel happy about Cheap Arjen Robben Jersey , then maybe a consolidation loan would be worth considering. If you take out a loan and use the money to pay off all your card debts, you could benefit from a lower rate as loans are normally quite a bit cheaper than credit cards.


The downside to these loans is that the repayment period might be quite long, and so even though your repayments will hopefully be lower, you’ll stay in debt for longer and so end up paying more in interest. Done carefully Wholesale FC Bayern Munich Jerseys , however, consolidation can be a sound move if there’s little chance of clearing your debt in any other way.


Watch your spending!


All the above tactics for getting your debt under control will only work if you stop getting deeper into debt – and this means stopping spending on your cards. Ideally, you’d slice them up so that you can’t use them again, but this might not be realistic as you may need to keep them as a credit option for unexpected expenses. At any rate Wholesale Bayern Munich Jerseys , cutting your spending to an absolute minimum will keeping your repayments as high as possible is the only sure strategy to clearing your debt in the long term.


Today is the first father聮s day for me without my own father. I know that wherever my father is he knows he did the absolute best he could for his family, NO questions asked. When I was 5 years old and said I wanted to be a dentist聟.no questions asked. I know that I would be nothing today had it not been for my dad聮s immense support and love.





So, my reflection this morning (as my two boys still sleep in after staying up way past my bedtime) is what kind of job have I been doing as a father? My wife and I have been blessed with two boys, Josh age 21 and Joey age 17.





Let me start with Joey this time. It is funny how yesterday my wife Janis described Joey as the Pigpen (from Peanuts fame) in our family. And it is true. Even as a little child we would say that the minute Joey got out of the shower he was covered in dust again. Never found a mess he couldn聮t make. But Joey was a great little athlete and we loved to watch him play youth football and basketball in the Parks and Rec leagues when he was in elementary school. But he had an even more incredible talent聟 could remember lines from movies he had seen only once and it could have been years before. And my wife and I always said that .Joey was not destined for a 9-5 desk or book type of job.





Fast forward to high school and Joey wanted to play football Cheap FC Bayern Munich Jerseys , and he did. Before his junior year he had a dilemma because the theatre teacher wanted him to be in the performance group聟 you couldn聮t do football and theatre so he chose football. After the season ended Joey decided that while he appreciated all the physical exercise and development he had attained in football that he was going to concentrate on theatre. It is something he loves and he wants to pursue as a career. And where was he this Friday during summer vacation 聟at school reading a p.
