3 critical credit card debt considerations borrowers should make now: News last week that credit card balances are falling was welcomed by American borrowers, but it may have masked what still appears to be a credible issue: millions of Americans are still struggling to pay off all that they’ve accumulated. Credit card balances in the first quarter of 2025 were at a combined $1.18 trillion, and while that’s a decline from the final quarter of 2024, it still represents a 6% increase compared to the same time period last year. Add in the fact that the average credit card debt balance is close to $8,000 right now and that credit card interest rates are only marginally down from a recent record 23% and it becomes even clearer that the path toward financial freedom is still a ways off for many.

After surpassing the $3,400 price per ounce record in April, just weeks after breaking through the $3,000 price milestone in March, gold on May 19 was listed at $3,238.88. While not dramatically lower than what it had been, that marks an almost 6% decline since late April. And it opens up new opportunities and, perhaps, closes off others for investors and beginners considering gold now.
