Calculating What Credit Debt Really Costs You

If you're on of the millions of people carrying debt on your credit cards or with a bank loan, then you know how difficult it can be to pay it off.

The real damage calculates the true cost of a purchase using your own unique financial situation. Unlike most debt calculators, we don't show how much something will cost if you carry the balance on your credit card. We show you how much you will save if you never purchase the item in the first place, and instead used the money to pay down your debt. Reverse the logic, and what we end up with is the amount that purchase truly costs you. What we like to call, The Real Damage.

Knowing the true cost of a purchase, allows you to make informed financial decisions. Which will help you get out of debt, and stay out of debt.
