What's the Truth about American's Credit Card Debt?
Many sources, including the government, the media, and even bank officials, have claimed that the American people have a lot of credit card debt. There are many rumors going around saying that Americans owe thousands of dollars each in credit card debt. They usually will give statistics with their claims to help back the claims up. However the truth about Americans credit card debt is often skewed and hidden. The only way to see the truth is to break down the numbers.
There's a statistic that claims the average American carries more than $8,000 in credit card debt. This statistic is widely believed because of its publicity. However the fact is that the statistic itself is skewed in the way it was found. The average American is conceived of as having kids and living in a multiple bedroom house with a basement. We can see that the word average can easily confuse a person about what it really means.
Only 1 in 20 American households actually carry $8,000 or more in credit card debt. The truth about credit card debt is that most American families actually owe nothing to credit card companies. This is because most of them don’t have credit cards or pay off the bill in full. Out of the households that do owe credit card companies money, most of them only owe $2,000 or less. It’s clear that an average can’t give you the real answer to how much credit card debt the American people have.
You may ask why the number is a skewed number. The answer is based on how they arrived at their average debt number. They got the average American debt number by taking $750 billion in credit card debt and dividing it by 84 million American households which is the number of households that have one or more credit cards. The resulting number is the average. This number however is inaccurate when compared to the truth about credit card debt.
The truth about credit card debt is that most Americans aren't even counted in the calculation. There are many American households that have no credit cards. In fact 23.8%, almost a quarter of American households, have no credit cards. That’s a quarter of American households that weren’t even factored into the calculation. Another huge portion of households pay off their credit cards in full. How many households? 31.2%! The truth about credit card debt is that 55% of Americans have none. We can further break down the remaining 45% of households.
For the $1,000+ range there are only 29% that are in that range and only 21% of households that owe $2,000 or more. Finally we can see that only 4% of households owe $10,000+ and 1% of American households have credit card debt in excess of $21,000. We can see that very little to nothing is owed by most of the American households. There are only 21% of American households that actually owe more than $2,000 in credit card debt. This is only 1/5 American households that owe a decent amount of money to credit card companies and we can see that the $8,000 is nowhere near what the average American household owes in credit card debt.
Anyone know how to make blackberry default to media card memory for everything including email?
A blackberry peal has 64mb memory but can support a 2GB media card. I would like to make all 2GB of media card memory available for email storage.
when the 64 mb fills, it wipes the emails from my device and i want to keep them there IN the email app.
Anyone know how to make spill over email go to media card memory?
At this point, the Blackberry media card can only be used for media storage - music, pictures, videos,etc. You are limited to the device's 64mb memory for your email storage.
There are ways to increase the space available for your email. Please see this link. (Registration may be required)
