The debt snowball method to pay off debt was made famous by David Ramsey. With the debt snowball method, you pay off your debt from the smallest balance to the largest balance. This method is used to pay off consumer debts like credit card bills and student loans.
The debt snowball method is a debt repayment strategy recognized for its psychological and motivational benefits. The approach focuses on settling debts starting with the smallest balance and progressing to the largest, regardless of interest rates. The success of the debt snowball method is attributed to the psychological boost and momentum gained as each smaller debt is cleared, providing a sense of progress and encouragement to address the next debt.
This strategy involves organizing debts in order of increasing balance. Minimum payments are made on all debts, while any additional funds are directed to the smallest debt until it is paid off. Then, the focus shifts to the next smallest debt, continuing this pattern until all debts are settled
While this method might not be the most efficient in terms of saving on interest, as higher-interest debts might take longer to be addressed, the motivational aspect of achieving quick wins is significant. It motivates individuals to adhere to their repayment plan, which is a significant advantage for those who require regular encouragement to continue reducing their debts.
The debt snowball method does work for many individuals, especially those who struggle with staying motivated using other strategies. However, it’s important to note that the debt snowball may result in paying more interest over time and potentially extend the period needed to achieve complete debt freedom. Success with the debt snowball method largely depends on the individual’s preference for immediate wins and consistent motivation.

Debt relief/settlement is the process of negotiating with your creditors outside of court to repay less than the amount you owe. In most cases, we are able to reach settlements that are considerably lower than the actual amount owed. You typically have three options when it comes to lowering your debt burden:
This option is often impossible for individuals seeking debt relief. Making the minimum payments does not work as it will take years to pay off and your interest increases are higher than your payments so your balance actually grows. If this option is available to you, it is best to pay off your balances so your credit rating stays the same or even grows. But be careful, paying only the minimum payments can actually hurt your rating.
This is where we come in. We negotiate with your creditors to reduce your debts. This creates a win-win because you pay a lower balance and your creditor gets to recoup some of their funds. When you enroll in the SPENT Debt Relief Program, you will stop paying your creditors. Since you are not making payments, you credit score will take a hit but your credit rating will recover in time after you pay your creditors the negotiated amount.
If you are eligible for bankruptcy, filing will remove your entire debt burden. Since you pay nothing and the creditor gets nothing, this method has the biggest negative impact on your credit rating for the longest amount of time.
One of the main benefits of debt relief over bankruptcy is the lasting impact on credit reports. A bankruptcy entry lasts for 10 years, which can affect future loan, credit card, and job applications. With debt relief, depending on how long it takes to pay off your debt, your credit rating will recover much faster than with pursuing traditional bankruptcy.
Debt relief helps alleviate the burden if you have fallen behind on payments. Once you enroll in the SPENT Debt Relief Program, we represent you and we will negotiate with your creditors to reduce the amount that you owe.
As we negotiate your debts with your creditors, you should expect payments plans lasting between 2-4 years. This is considerably less than if you decided to pay your debts off normally.
Settling your debt requires you to pay your creditors an amount that is less than what you owe. Once you make the payment(s), the remaining balance is removed. You will get the best deal if you have enough money in your trust account for a lump sum payment, however, it is still common to receive significant discounts on payment plans.
