Even for people who follow a strict budget, costly unexpected expenses can be a life-altering challenge. So what about people who don’t follow a strict budget? For many people, when a high-priced, unexpected expense drops into their lives things are already tight, so it can be downright crippling, or even seem impossible to handle.
These unexpected expenses we’re talking about are crucial, must-have things are often completely unavoidable and need to be handled immediately. These expenses also come in many categories. Things like:
- Broken-down vehicles that are required to get to work or bring children to school
- Medical emergencies that need to be dealt with immediately
- Major appliances like a stove, refrigerator or A/C failing
- Drastic home structure repairs such as the roof needing to be replaced
- Unplanned travel for important events you can’t miss
- Pet emergencies and sicknesses that cause high vet bills
- Losing your job and having to keep up with the bills
That list is just scratching the surface of the almost countless unexpected expenses that can come crashing into your life any day (and it never fails that these expenses seem to come at the worst times). These expenses can’t be ignored, and to make matters worse, they almost always need to be handled urgently, which causes people to fall into mountains of debt very quickly.
For many people, their only option to take care of these unexpected expenses is to use credit cards and cash advances. And while this might be a necessary evil, the effects are often long-lasting and very expensive.
Now you’re not only paying for your $3,000 car repair, your $8,000 hospital bill, or your $16,000 roof– but you’re also paying a high interest rate every month you have a balance. This means that over the lifetime of the debt you’re actually paying much more than the price of the expense. In fact, for some, they can only afford to pay the minimum payment, and they’re stuck in a never ending cycle of having debt for the rest of their lives.
