How to Calculate Your "Debt-Age"

Look for the fine print on your credit card statement that tells you how long it will take you to pay off your balance making just the minimum monthly payment. Adding this to your current age gives you your debt-age. If this shows you’ll be older than dirt before you’re debt-free, don’t fret. We’re here to help.

The Impact of $100 on Your Debt-Age

Simply switching your credit card debt to a Member Savings consolidation loan can save you hefty interest charges—and shorten the time you spend in debt. Just to show you how quickly credit card debt can snowball, the chart on the left shows the difference that a mere $100 can make.

Compared to spending $500 per month to be debt-free in 4.75 years, paying $100 less per month will almost double your repayment time. That's not great for your debt-age or your wallet, for the amount of interest you incur will be another $16,787.46. This shows why it is best to pay off your credit card debt as quickly as possible.
