Debt in itself is not the main problem of people, especially if they can afford to pay it back. But what makes it a big problem is the continuous accumulation or increase of debt. This is especially true if your debt is the only one that grows and your income remains stagnant.

This is the situation that many people usually find themselves in. They tend to increase the debt they have while not finding ways to increase their income as well. Always remember that when you get into debt, your income should always be sufficient to pay it back. This means you're still able to pay for all your other expenses and have enough left for debt repayment.

Becoming wealthy is not achieved by earning a lot of money. It’s achieved by being able to keep and invest a big portion of the income you are earning.

Personal Finance Quote Interpretation – It’s About How Much You Keep - The personal finance quote "It's not how much money you make, but how much money you keep", shows that becoming wealthy is not about the money you make.

It's hard being in debt because it's always going to be in your mind. Even if you have the means to pay for it, it can still cause unhappiness and stress internally. It's something that you'll always have to worry about.

And that feeling only worsens if your budget is not enough to cover that debt. This is why it's always important to think twice, thrice, as many times as possible, before deciding to get into debt. You need to make sure you know what you're getting into and if you're mentally and emotionally prepared for it as well.
