So you're in debt. It seemed like it was no big deal at the time. After all, that credit card payment will be almost nothing. Why wait until tomorrow to buy when you can buy now?

Well, that one charged item turns into another and another and another. One day you wake up and realize that that credit card payment is now killing you. Suddenly, getting out of debt is all that you want to do.

Let's be honest about two things. First, making your minimum payment will never let you get rid of debt. Second, in this economy, the chance of you making more money at work is probably a lot less. So, how can you get out of debt?

First, you must understand that getting out of debt can be done much quicker by doing more than just saving and trying to get rid of debt in that manor. Yes, you should save and pay more than then minimum payment on that credit card bill. However, if you also spend money by investing in yourself, you can greatly increase your cash flow which will allow you to pay off your bills even faster.

Investing in yourself means that instead of turning your money over to a financial advisor ...
... to place in mutual funds, you spend your money on things that will allow you to earn more money in a way that you control.

The best example of this is by starting a home based business. There are too many ways to do this to cover in this article. However, some of these ways could be making and selling a new and unique product, buying and selling books online, and even starting a franchise or MLM home based business.

Building a secondary income starting a home based business that will let you get rid of debt will take more than just money. Each opportunity will require different things of you, and your past experience may make one option better than the other.

For example, creating and selling your own and unique product is probably not a good idea if you have no business experience. There will be a lot of logistics in getting that operation off the ground and a large financial investment. Since you're already in debt, you'll probably be deeper in debt for a while before you are able to dig yourself out.

If you have no experience, an MLM home based business is an option worth giving serious consideration. MLM home based businesses have many of the advantages of a franchise without the disadvantages.

In an MLM home based business, you have quality products that are in demand, you have a system in place for marketing that business, and the investment is very very small.

The small investment is a primary advantage if you're getting out of debt because it allows you to make a profit almost immediately.

What ever option you choose, take the cash flow from your business and add it to the money you are already paying to your credit card debts. If you will follow these simple steps, you will find that getting out of debt can be done much faster than you ever imagined.
