Pay your bills. Only buy the necessities.

The best way to get out of debt is to start saving. Save atleast 10% of what you earn every month, and then pay as much as you can towards your debt....you'll hav to make some sacrifices on your lifestyle! oh! yeah...also start looking to make more than you do...that helps too!

have money transferred from your checking into some kind of savings right when you get paid, so you do not have a chance to spend it. It adds up fast then you can invest it or pay off debt with it. Read the book "Automatic Millionare"

Debt consolidation or working with a debt counselor is the only way to get out of debt. People just telling you to save and to stop spending doesn't work. It took me almost 4 years to get out of debt but through debt consolidation I was able to do so. They will call all of your credit card companies and negotiate lower interest rates on your credit cards (one of my cards went from 27 percent to 11 percent) and they will make it so that you are unable to use them forcing you to live on what you make only. It was the only way that I was going to get out of debt, once you do that you will be able to see how much you can save. I work two jobs and all the money from my second job is directly deposited in my saving account, that way I only use my primary pay check for my everyday expenses. I am 26 now and almost completely out of debt, and am proud of my savings even if it is still small by most standards. Good Luck!!

Try to cut corners wherever possible and try to save and payoff debts fast.

The best debt settlement option is known as a consolidation alternative because it is not a loan, bankruptcy, or credit counseling. This type of option is only for those with at least $10,00 in unsecured debt, like credit cards. This will help you get out of debt with one monthly payment, a free consultations, and you will not have to worry about bankruptcy. This is my favorite option and if you follow the plan you can be living a debt free life in less than 3 years.
