Not only can embracing this lifestyle help you live on a more frugal budget (
thus helping pay off debt faster and prevent the accumulation of new debt), but actually selling your superfluous things can give you a debt payoff boost.
If you tend to overspend and have no control over your income and expenses, you need to learn about budgeting and other money management procedures that will
help you improve your income to spending ratio
thus providing you with sufficient remaining income to start eliminating
debt by
paying it
off.
