What is Debt Consolidation?
By and large, Debt Consolidation means taking all or most of your outstanding debt and consolidating it into a single payment. There are a number of benefits of a Debt Consolidation program, including lowering your current interest rates or switching to a fixed interest rate. It is also much easier to pay off a single loan, so if you tend to forget when your payments are due, it might be a good solution to consolidate them into a monthly statement.

What is the best way to avoid having to consolidate your debts?
First of all, you should evaluate your current financial situation. Try to find out why your debt has accumulated. If you have too many credit cards you cannot pay off, you may consider switching to a single secured or debit card so that you only spend what you really have. This can work if the amount of accumulated debt is very low. If it's not, Debt Consolidation might be a better option. No matter what you choose to do, you should still try to evaluate your current financial situation and your spending patterns. Acting in advance and making informed financial decisions can help you remedy your situation.
