Quick Answers

Debt Snowball FAQs

What is the Debt Snowball strategy?

The Debt Snowball method lists all your debts from smallest to largest balance regardless of interest rates. You pay minimums on all debts while directing every extra shilling to clear the smallest balance first, creating quick psychological wins.

How does the snowball roll over into other debts?

Once your smallest debt is fully cleared, the entire monthly amount you were paying toward it rolls over to attack the next smallest debt, increasing your payoff power with each cleared loan.
