    Excellent news article MSE Guy!:)

    Glad to see this publicised.

    Simple question. If someone has numerous debts to pay off, is it better for them to:

    a) use all their available disposable income to make payments to creditors?

    or

    b) have some firm charge them 80% of their disposable income to split the remaining 20% of their income between the creditors, ultimately leading to creditors getting way less, over an excessive period of time.
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.
