Credit Card Debt Explained: What You Need to Know Before You Swipe 💳

Make Dollars Make Sense 💳Debt can feel overwhelming, but understanding how it works is one of the first steps toward taking back control. In this episode of Make Dollars Make Sense, Trudi and Jenn break down credit cards, borrowing, interest, minimum payments, and why not all debt is automatically bad.​​We’re also talking about the emotional side of debt, including guilt, shame, impulsive spending, and why it can feel so hard to simply look at the numbers. You’ll hear practical questions to ask before borrowing, how credit card interest can work against you, and why having a repayment plan matters. 💰​​If you’ve ever felt embarrassed about debt or unsure where to start, this conversation is a reminder that debt is information, not your identity. ❤️​​Understanding your debt gives you the power to make a different plan.​​​#MOMnation #DebtFreeJourney #FinancialLiteracy​​​Connect with Trudi: https://www.facebook.com/trudi.kayser​Connect with Jenn: https://www.facebook.com/jenn.stone.31​Connect with Katie: https://www.katiehallelambert.com/​​​🎥 Watch the Previous Episode: Stop Guessing!
