Why would credit card debt grow to pay mortgage debt?

That seems a bit backwards to me.

Payoff credit card debt in full and on time every month.

No exceptions.

Not a word on how much their assets, income and tax burden changed in the same period. The level of debt is a worthless metric unless the broader financial context can be known.

From the article:

"The average adult now owes £33,000 through mortgages, credit cards and personal loans compared with £17,000 in 2000, the international accountancy firm PricewaterhouseCoopers claims."

Considering that includes mortgages, that seems kind of low.

Give ‘em more loans. Asians will underwrite them. ;-)

Saw a statistic from about 1980 that the average worker in an industrialized country will emerge $70,000 ahead at the end of his career. He might make $1 million but that’s what is left.

That's roughly $68,000 USD debt load for every Briton.
