Managing your living costs while maintaining regular credit repayments can be extremely difficult, especially if your contractual repayments do not leave you with enough money to pay for your rent or mortgage and household bills.
Debt calculators are a quick and easy method of analysing your financial situation and can illustrate exactly how much of your income is going towards credit repayments and how much you are left with to pay for this month’s rent, bills, etc.
If you browse the internet particularly Google looking for a debt calculator, you are likely to find a lead generation tool which promises to help you write off up to 85% of your debt. These sites are best avoided as they are looking to sell your details onto debt solution providers.
A debt calculator should help you:-
- Work out how much you owe to your creditors
- How much you are paying to each creditor and in total each month
- Help you work through your income and expenditure
- Figure out how much money you have left at the end of the month to pay towards your debt
