Hi everyone!  I’m currently working on paying off a $7, 500 credit card and a $7, 000 car loan.Hi everyone! I’m currently working on paying off a $7, 500 credit card and a $7, 000 car loan. I have about $1, 500 of leftover income each month after all of my bills and expenses are paid. Realistically what would you put towards paying those debts off every month? Would you focus 100% on the debt or put some away in savings too? I do already have some savings.

Depends on your goals. I have a 3 month emergency fund so I don’t save much month outside of my sinking funds . All extra income goes toward debt. Good luck !
