The first thing to consider about debt consolidation is that it's not for everyone. It may be a good choice for a few people, but if you're in the majority and have high-interest debts, you'll have more fun trying to get out of debt than consolidating. If your debts are high-interest credit cards and other unsecured debt, then you should consider using an alternative solution instead of debt consolidation.
Debt consolidation is also a bad idea if your debts are low-interest loans such as mortgages or student loans. This is because these types of loans are often repaid over time and not lumped together with other debts. They also tend to be paid off with regular payments rather than one large payment at the end of the loan term or loan period.
