Its been drained in my head that the average American can’t save. Even my friends from abroad have images of Americans consuming mass quanities of Chinese products, putting our earth on a dangerous trend toward pollution and global warming. What about when you’ve heard that average annual credit card debt is $8,000 in America? Are these average annual credit card facts really true?
The truth of the average annual credit card debt
1. 23.8% of American households have no credit cards at all.
2. Another 31.2% of the households surveyed paid off credit card bills in full.
3. 55% of households that owed nothing on credit cards .
Who’s in debt?
29% of households surveyed by the Fed, owed $1,000 or more on their cards. Still, 29% is a higher number than anyone would like to see. The problem is, the worst loan you could get is from your credit card company. Their very high interests rates can make it hard for anyone to pay back their debt.
