Lots of people get caught up in the debt cycle, especially following the Christmas Holiday season, yet you don’t have to let debt keep you from becoming wealthy – not if you do it the way rich people do.
(PRWEB) January 13, 2006 -- Lots of people get caught up in the debt cycle, especially following the Christmas Holiday season, yet you don’t have to let debt keep you from becoming wealthy – not if you do it the way rich people do.
“Do you think millionaires don’t have debt?” asks Loral Langemeier, a single mom, millionaire and author of The Millionaire Maker. She then quickly replies, “Of course they do – sometimes millions of dollars of debt. In fact, the richer they are the more debt they carry, but it has to be the right kind of debt.”
The right kind of debt is called Good Debt, because it actually helps you make more money. Bad Debt is consumer debt, such as when people use credit cards to buy non-income producing items. Even items such as cars and home furniture are often mistaken as assets; however, they rarely produce more money for you.
So the right question isn’t “How do I get rid of my debt,” but rather, “What’s the best way to turn my Bad Debt into Good Debt?” Many financial advisors will tell you to scrimp, save and cut back on absolutely everything that makes life fun. They’ll tell you to create a very tight budget and then pay off your debt before you can even think about making investments of any type.
According to Langemeier, that advice creates two huge problems. First, a tight budget is like a starvation diet. When you fight yourself, you both lose. The second problem is because it cuts you off from investing and using your money to make money, passively, the way rich people do. This doesn’t mean you don’t need an effective debt management system, because that is critical to your overall success. More importantly, you need a clear plan of action to spend a lot of money on what makes more money.
