So you’ve got a bunch of debts. You owe money on three different credit cards, and a payday loan, and you still owe some money on an old cellphone bill. You’ve got a job, and you’ve got money coming in every month, but it’s hard to juggle five different debt payments every month, all on different days, in addition to all of your regular bills.
