So, how do you know if you are in too much debt.  This may seem obvious to some but sometimes the obvious must be stated:

 

  • If you are nearing the point where you can only make the minimum payment, that is the first sign of trouble.
  • If you have little to no savings
  • If 1 or more of your cards is maxed out
  • You are frequenty late on debt payments
