Myths About Paying Off Debt

Waiting 30 minutes after eating before getting in the pool, alligators in the sewer, and the Loch Ness Monster is real. These all have one thing in common – they’re myths. When it comes to debt, most of us have heard similar myths, like the classic advice that “passing on your weekly latte will get you out of debt.” We’re covering some common myths about debt and what you can do to navigate the tricky ins and outs of finances.

“If anyone knew how much debt I was in, they’d judge me”

According to Debt.com, the average American has $90,460 in debt. That includes all types of consumer debt, from credit cards to personal loans, mortgages and student debt. While nearly everyone accrues at least some debt, you don’t have to stay in that place forever. Most of us carry some form of debt, so there’s no reason to worry about judgment.  

“I’m not good enough with money to pay off my debt”

Tracking down where your money is going, what you owe and when and how much you should be paying each month is a lot of work. Quility’s Debt Free Life solution provides an easy way to organize all your financial information in one place with the debt elimination report.  

Once you begin your debt free journey, your certified Debt Free Life consultant will walk you through your debt elimination report, which will redirect your inefficient funds to pay off your debt faster and will save you thousands of dollars in the process. 

With Debt Free Life, the pressure of tracking everything is taken off your shoulders.  

“My only option is bankruptcy”

Bankruptcy should be your last option, only to be used after you’ve ruled out everything else. If you’re looking for a way to pay off debt for good with a customized plan to fit your budget, Debt Free Life (DFL) can help. With DFL you don’t have to be great with money – that’s where your certified DFL consultant will step in.

Debt Free Life is a program that uses the cash value of a permanent life insurance policy to pay off debts. Instead of borrowing from a bank and paying interest, you can use funds from within your policy to pay down your debt.

The program is customized for your specific budget and debts, including credit card debt, mortgages, student loans and auto loans.

Within your customized debt report, you will know the exact amount of debt you have, interest you will be saving and the month and day you’ll be debt free.
