Listen Later

In the latest episode of the Santam Insure Your Future Money Bootcamp, we discuss the sensitive topic of debt. While we all need credit, especially to purchase a home or a car, if it is not managed carefully, it can become a debt trap which undermines all our other important financial goals.

Brian Mphakoanyane from Summit Financial joins hosts Maya Fisher-French and Mapalo Makhu to explain credit scores, good and bad debt, and what to do when debt becomes unmanageable. 

The conversation delves into practical strategies for managing debt, understanding creditworthiness, and the importance of maintaining a healthy debt-to-income ratio. Brian shares insights on debt review, its pros and cons, and the significance of creating an emergency savings account while under debt counselling. 

This episode is not just about understanding debt; it’s about empowering listeners to take charge of their financial futures. By providing practical tips and expert advice, this episode provides information to reassess their financial habits and make informed decisions. Tune in to gain the knowledge you need to transform your financial situation and pave the way for a brighter financial future.
