Good debt versus bad debt Before you borrow money, it’s important to know the difference between good debt and bad debt. Some purchases are worth going into debt for, others can leave you in an exceedingly big financial disorder. Here’s a way to tell the difference.

What is good debt? In simple terms, good debt could be a sensible investment in your financial future. This should leave you happier within the long-term, and will not negatively impact your overall financial position. You will have a transparent and specific reason for taking it out, and a proper plan for paying it back that enables you to clear your debt as quickly as possible, or in a series of standard and affordable payments. Someone with a decent debt will also have identified the most affordable way of borrowing that money. You will have to do this by finding the right borrowing method, an interest rate, loan or credit amount, term, and charges that are the foremost appropriate for them.
