Update: 2025-11-29
Description
A retired veteran with $1.2M in savings and a family of five faces a $46K credit card debt. Despite earning $7.2K/month, theyre left with $3.5K for expenses. Experts advise against raiding retirement accounts to pay off debt, as it would cost $67.5K and lose potential returns. Instead, they suggest debt management plans, balance transfers, or consolidation loans. The family must cut expenses and allocate $1.5K/month to debt repayment to clear their debt and secure a stable financial future.
