August 17, 2007, Newsletter Issue #76: Staying Debt Free After Recovery

Tip of the Week

For those that have recently discovered the happiness of being debt free, it is important to never lose sight of where you were not too long ago. It is easy to fall back into debt once you have gotten yourself out. To keep out of debt for the long haul, here are a few tips that we hope will help. Don't Get Spoiled – For people who spend a long time making monthly payments on their debt, not having these bills each month leaves a lot of money left over that was never there before. What should be done with this new surplus? Save these funds and re-invest them if possible. Build wealth now that you have no debt and you will not need to go into debt in the future. Stay Away From Previous Problems – No matter where your debt problems originated, now that you are debt free, do whatever you can to avoid falling into the same traps. If credit cards got you in trouble before, tear them up. If you had a home equity line that was spent on things other than your home, close it out. Do not repeat your mistakes and you can easily remain debt free.

There are many other helpful tips to remain debt free available here on LifeTips. If you have yet to rid yourself of your debt and want to get there as soon as possible, consult with a debt management specialist who can give you a roadmap to success.
