Success Stories
“Barb and I would like to thank you for helping us get out of debt. Thanks to all of you at Debt Free. We made it. It is such a great feeling to be able to hold your head high and have all of our bills paid. We really appreciate the way you worked with us and guided us through the whole thing. Thank you again.”
--Barb and Emil 2008
"I think one thing that has helped me tremendously is being able to deal with just one company (DFA) rather than trying to keep up with all of the creditors, especially because I had gotten so behind. DFA basically “took the heat” on my behalf, giving me a chance to recoup and do something constructive about the problem! My story is like many others I’ve heard…Dealing with all my creditors—to whom I did (do) indeed owe money—absolutely scared me, and I could not even be able to deal with incoming mail or phone calls on some days…That just compounded the problem, of course. I’m so, so grateful to be on the other side of all that, personally stronger, steadily paying down the debt—AND to have learned very valuable lessons about spending, credit, saving, etc."
- Nancy 2008
“I just want to thank you for helping me pay off these credit cards. Your company has been such a great help for me. Now I don’t have to stress on this any longer. I am looking into buying my first home here within the next six months and I could not have done it without your help. Again I’m thanking you for everything you have done for me so now I am DEBT FREE.”
-Deia, 2008

Financial Literacy
Financial literacy is fast becoming a topic not just for investors and market analysts, but among educators, lawmakers and parents who know teaching money management skills to young people is a serious necessity.
And with millions of Americans struggling to manage and recover from their own debt crisis, the question of where the next generation will learn the skills to avoid making the same mistakes, afford schooling, become homeowners and save for the future is booming.
