How Consumer Debt Took Over—and How You Can Outsmart It

Debt Is Like That One Friend Who Never Leaves—But It Doesn’t Have to Be

We’ve all been there: credit card bills, personal loans, maybe even a few “accidental” online shopping sprees. It feels like you’re drowning in numbers, doesn’t it? But what if there was a smarter, stress-free way to handle your big purchases—without inviting debt to crash on your couch indefinitely? Enter Clusivi’s Plan-to-Pay solution—a fresh approach to managing your finances, so life’s big moments are a celebration, not a financial headache.

The Debt Dilemma: Everyone’s Least Favorite Trend

Did you know U.S. household debt just hit a jaw-dropping $17 trillion? Yep, trillion with a “T.” Credit card balances alone have soared past $1 trillion, and with inflation nudging prices higher while wages stay in neutral, it’s no wonder credit cards have become our financial crutch. But here’s the kicker—debt isn’t just numbers on a screen; it’s that constant, gnawing stress that keeps you up at night. In fact, a survey by The Harris Poll found that 77% of Americans are anxious about their financial situation, with debt being a major culprit.

The Hidden Price Tag of Credit

Swiping your card may feel like the quick and easy solution—but trust us, that “easy” comes with a price. With credit card interest rates hovering around 20% (and some climbing up to 29%), that debt snowball starts rolling faster than you think. Let’s say you’ve got a $5,000 balance with a 20% interest rate. Making minimum payments? That could take you 15 years to pay off, with thousands of dollars in interest. Debt doesn’t just hit your bank account—it messes with your sleep, your stress, and your well-being.

Plan-to-Pay: Your Debt-Free Cheat Code

Now, what if we flipped the script? Instead of swiping and stressing, what if you could plan for those big purchases in advance—without the burden of high interest rates breathing down your neck?
