This Week's Carnivals

113th Carnival of Debt Reduction – Questions / Answers

Welcome to the 113th Carnival of Debt Reduction. I’ve hosted the carnival several times – and I was intrigued by this week’s submissions. Some came from established personal finance bloggers, but most come from bloggers who are just starting out. I thought I’d list the posts using a question/answer format – and I’ll add a few thoughts at the end of the list of posts. I want to thank all of the bloggers who submitted articles to this week’s Carnival of Debt Reduction.

1. Why in the world do we get into debt in the first place? Journey To Financial Freedom suggests reasons for Why People Are In Debt.

2. Are you thinking about getting out of debt? My Journey To Eliminate Debt has written part 3 of a Where Do I Start? series.
