Consumer credit card debt has dropped in recent times
A guest post from Jason Holmes, a writer with Debt Consolidation Care and contributor to many other financial sites.

Several studies reveal the fact that outstanding consumer credit card debt has dropped in recent times. Apparently, it may signify that the consumers have finally learned to manage their finances and credit responsibly.

As per several recent studies, credit card debt has dropped by about 12% in May from that of April 2010. The figure shows that the debt has fallen down to about $838 billion in May 2010 from a record high of about $958 billion in the year 2008. Studies also reveal that consumer debt related to credit cards has fallen from about $969 billion in the fourth quarter of 2008 to about $876 billion during the same period in 2009.

My wife Mary Ellen and I have been married for more than 26 years.  Ever since the beginning of time we have had difficulty with our finances.  Granted as two young kids, we never thought about money, nor were either of us taught the value of a dollar. As time went on we had two children, a girl now 25 and married and a boy now 19 and in the Marines.  We are now considered “empty nesters.”  However, our financial hardships of 25 plus years finally came to a head last September when our daughter got married.
