Because of the way the economy works, a certain amount of debt is healthy. This amount is different for everyone and is based on their financial situations. Unfortunately, while your financial situation can easily change quickly, your debt most likely will not.

In an economy where people are being laid off and having great difficulty finding work, keeping a handle on debt can be difficult. When you find yourself in over your head, it is important to speak with your creditors before the situation gets out of hand.
