debt diet

Would you rather be overweight by 10 to 50 pounds & have zero debt?  Or be at your ideal weight & have $10,000 in debt?

Questions above were posed & reported in a recent Yahoo! health article titled, Surprising Facts About Dieting.  Nearly half of the 2,000 people surveyed said they’d rather be 50 pounds overweight!  78% said they’d rather be 10 pounds overweight than have 10K in debt.  Interesting…

Regardless of the survey, money motivates, controls & holds power.  Consider these resources to help put money in its place:
