There are countless methods and strategies touted for dealing with debt and, now more than ever, people are scrambling to address their personal finances and eliminate the burden of debt from their lives.

With all the contradicting information and different sales pitches, it is impossible to know who to trust. How will you ever decide on a plan to tackle your debt?

The truth is, nearly all the advice you hear or read is at least slightly misleading, and much of it is blatantly false. Companies that are looking to help you with your debt, even non profit organizations, profit in one way or another when you choose their services.
