Host: What is a Debt Management Plan?
Linda Stroman: A Debt Management Plan is normally a long-term strategy for eliminating a debt especially, if you are in a very deteriorating situation where your debt is excessive. So, it is looking at basically, a whole snapshot of your financial up health and looking at what are some of the things that you need to do different. So, how do you need to -- what debts do you need to eliminate, how to go about doing that, what debts take priority because some debts you want to make sure are knocked fast than the others. Looking at interest rates, looking at how -- what is the timeframe in getting rid of your debts.
