The Shame Associated With Credit Card Debt

People would rather talk about how much they weigh than reveal how much credit card debt they owe.

Interview:  Michael Taggart

 

  • A recent survey by CreditCards.com found that 47% of Americans felt uncomfortable discussing their credit card debt with anyone and only 19% who were uncomfortable talking about their weight.
  • Struggling with debt brings up a host of negative emotions like guilt, shame and embarrassment, so many people hide the problem.
  • Hiding the problem almost always makes it worse as interest rates rise and late payments pile up. You have to get it out in the open and see the monster for what he is before you can defeat it.
