How To Get Out Of Debt Fast - Books And Videos
I should say, straight off, that I have never bought any of these get out of debt books or credit card debt videos. So maybe I'm just an old cynic and maybe I'm being unfair... actually I am an old cynic, so there you go!
Seriously though, some of these people are honest, I'm sure. Probably the majority of them really want to help you. But why are they selling you €the secret€? Why not just tell us? Why not give away the secret to getting out of debt? Money of course - they're in it because it's profitable.
In principle there's nothing wrong with making a profit as far as I'm concerned. If you have something of value to me, I'll gladly part with my hard earned cash. We buy and sell stuff to satisfy each others wants or needs all the time. That's how the world works and I have absolutely no problem with it at all. As long as what you're selling works.
Now the websites - usually a single long page, looking very professional and slick - can be pretty convincing. Hand over anything from $17 to $197 - perhaps more - so you can learn exactly how to get out of debt fast - real fast - like in a month or two. No bankruptcy, no debt consolidation, nothing.
They frequently give testimonials from others who have €followed the system€ with the same miraculous debt-free results in a fraction of the time it usually takes. Want my opinion?
Hogwash.
Now before I get in trouble and have someone's lawyers sending me threatening letters, I will say again that I'm sure some of these people are genuine. They believe they can help you. They don't make outrageous claims. If you've got the money to risk, by all means give it a try.
But hang on, if you're looking for a way to get out of debt you probably don't have the money to risk. And it is a risk. Even if the one you choose is genuine, their €system€ may not work for you. Sure, some of them offer a 60 day money-back guarantee so you feel confident in their product, but chances are it's going to take you longer than sixty days to get out of debt anyway - so what do you suppose happens when you get round to asking for your money a year from now...
Now I don't mean to sound entirely negative, because I believe there is always a solution to your debt problems. I'm not saying I can show you how to get out of debt fast either - because I never claim to be qualified to do that - but I can point you at people who help folk like you all day, every day. I can show you where you can get professional advice for free. So why would you risk money chasing €secrets€ when really it should really be used reducing your debt?
