One of the most popular questions I get is: “Kevin, how do I calculate how long it will take me to payoff a debt?” The question that often follows is: “How much interest will I pay for a debt if I pay the minimum balance?” So, in order to avoid a brief lecture on the mathematical formula to calculate compound interest, I have put together a dynamic calculator that will do the work for you. Warning: the results may be frightening.
This calculator, which uses a common compound interest formula, will determine
how long it will take you to pay off your debt --a mortgage, a car loan, or a
credit card debt. Enter in the balance, interest rate (APR), and monthly
payment. Afterwards, hit the "Calculate" button to see the result.

I wonder how you got so good. This is really a fascinating blog, lots of stuff that I can get into. One thing I just want to say is that your Blog is so perfect!
Great information you got here. I've been reading about this topic for one week now for my papers in school and thank God I found it here in your blog. I had a great time reading this.
Nice tool thanks! But to the question: How do I calculate how long it will take me to payoff a debt? I would advise: pay not the minimum balance but maximum balance thus you will decrease paying period considerably.
The process is simple; just apply a portion of the consolidated loan's monthly payment savings to the consolidated loan's balance. Save hundreds, even thousands in interest and shave years off of the loan.

Hi there,
Really nice job,There are many people searching about that now they will find enough sources by your tips.
Also looking forward for more tips about that
A Pension loan is a cheap easy alternative to an unsecured loan, and unlike an unsecured loan there are no credit checks carried out on you. This means that you could have missed payments, defaults, CCJ's and still be accepted for a BBR +5.5% loan.

About Me
Greetings! I’m Kevin D. Johnson, a business owner who has recently assumed the role of consumer advocate and internet activist. Atlanta, Georgia is my home.
My Story
Upon returning from my wonderful honeymoon in Jamaica in October 2008, I received what I thought was an ordinary American Express bill, but to my surprise it was a disappointing letter informing me that my credit line was reduced by about 65% for a highly suspicious and discriminatory reason. Considering my excellent credit score and pristine payment history, it just didn’t make sense. However, what does make sense are the unfair and insidious policies that I have uncovered when asking why. It is time to change them.
Good Morning America tells my story.
The Goal
I created this web site to document and share my challenging journey to change what is wrong, unfair, and unjust in the credit card industry. The ultimate goal of this web site is to inform consumers of ways to stand up for themselves against treacherous business practices and to educate consumers about how to improve their credit. Finally, I hope to encourage a more open dialogue with credit card companies about their policies–good and bad.
Success
I am proud to say that this blog's unyielding demand for change led to an important amendment in the final Credit CARD Act signed by President Obama on May 22, 2009. Despite this major accomplishment, there is still more work to be done.

Speaking Engagements
In an effort to educate as many people as possible about financial management, especially about how to manage the current credit crisis, I have begun to speak around the country at colleges, universities, corporations, chamber of commerce meetings, congressional hearings, trade organization meetings, etc. Having acquired a wealth of information that will help to empower people and to improve their financial future, I feel that sharing this information is the least I can do to make a positive impact. For information on my availability for speaking opportunities, please send an e-mail to Jennifer Silverman at jennifer@silvermanworldwide.com.
