Most people don't realize that credit and
debt really mean the same. Debt is the term
that describes owing money. The only way to owe someone
money is if they give you credit, so debt and credit
can really be used interchangeably.

You may have a problem with credit or debt
if you regularly borrow to make all purchases.
For example, if instead of paying cash when
you make a small purchase at a store you regularly
use credit cards, you may be using credit more
than you should, and that can cause problems.
Do you find it impossible to service all of
your debts each month? Do you see an item in
the store and buy it on your credit card, even
though you can't really afford it?
If you do, you may have credit or debt problems.

I have problems with credit and debt - can I still
get a debt consolidation loan?
Most people have problems with credit and
debt. In today's society we are constantly
bombarded with credit card applications and loan applications.
Every department store has their own credit card,
and they all offer special deals if you use their
credit card to make your purchase today.
Of course all of this credit makes it
easy to get into debt.
Even if you have problems with debt,
even if you have bad
credit, it is still possible to get a bad
credit debt consolidation loan.
Start by researching your options. There
are many online
debt consolidation services that offer advice
over the internet.
Talk to your friends and family. They
may be willing to loan you money to help you get back
on track. If they don't have money but they have good
credit, they may be willing to co-sign so that you
qualify for a debt
consolidation loan.
You may need to spend the next few months
reducing your expenses to pay down some of your debts
so that your debts are a more manageable level. If
you do, you may qualify for a low interest debt consolidation
loan at your bank.
You have options, so reduce your expenses
and work to get back on track.
