Staying Out of Debt
Last time, I decided to write about my financial life for a little bit. I explained how I began a life independent of parents but dependent on debt, and how did my best to surpass it while living by my own. After that, I described myself and my financial situation today. I am finally free of debt, I'm gladly standing up on my own two feet completely. And what did I decide to do next? I looked at the prospect of getting a housing loan.
So this is the American condition that defines many of us. We may be the land of the free, but many of us are in constant debt. You start out with a student loan, and then graduate to paying mortgages for your family. Toss in that loan for the car, and the education plan that we have for our kids, and you'll realize that we are only as free as our debts allow us to be.
This is one of the main things that we must change if we are to get out of this recession. Debts, by themselves, are not too harmful to the individual and the nation. But if that same individual gets himself or herself in excessive debt, it could all blow up with a simple drawback such as temporarily losing a job.
Only a select few things are more difficult than experiencing things that you own repossessed; and this can truly happen if you are unable to pay your debt. Avoid this as much as possible! If you really need to that loan, double-check if you have enough savings and extra income. That way, even if you do hit some bumps on the road, you'll have enough reserves to offset the loss.
In the end, we must learn to practice frugality. This is not too hard to do, especially if you start learning the balance between frugality and happiness. Don't save up to the point that you end up not buying anything for yourself; reward yourself from time to time for a job well done. - 23196
