Many Americans are delaying important milestones because of the burden of debt. And with a difficult economy due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s becoming more difficult for many people to get rid of household debts. We’re taking a look at some of the most common types of debt many Americans are dealing with, and how our Debt Free Life solution can help you manage your debts effectively so you can get on track to financial freedom.
Auto loans are one of the most common types of debt that people carry. Recently, the New York Fed revealed that auto loans account for more than a trillion dollars in the United States. While they are also one of the easier debts to pay off, many people still have a hefty car loan payment every month, which doesn’t help when it comes time to prioritize monthly payments.
Mortgage loans
Next up is one of the most expensive types of debt most American households face: Mortgage loans. Although home loans are considered one of the less risky types of debt, as they are related to an asset that can earn value, they are still one of the leading factors in overwhelming debt.
According to the New York Federal Reserve, American households have racked up approximately $9.4 trillion in mortgage balances.
Credit card debt
On Average, an American household carries approximately $6,100 in credit card balances with the total burden of credit card balances in America reaching $413.7 billion.
Student loan debt
Student loan debt is one of the biggest burdens for young people. Student loan debt is also a primary reason that millennials are pushing off important milestones like buying a house and starting a family. In late 2019, the New York Fed reported that student loan debt reached $1.48 trillion.
The emotional burden of debt
The effects of overwhelming debt go far beyond financial problems. An Associated Press study found that 10-16 million Americans are experiencing reduced physical and mental health because of high debt. In fact, individuals struggling to pay off debts are twice as likely to develop mental health issues like anxiety and depression. This trend is likely to continue as all forms of debt increase each year.
