Many people borrow money at certain points in their lives, usually when their savings are not enough to pay for “big-ticket” items such as a HDB flat or a car. In such cases, borrowing money to buy important items like a home may be necessary.

Borrowing is also a major responsibility as too much debt can easily get us in trouble. The number of persons seeking counselling for debt issues is already increasing every year, and credit card debt in Singapore is one of the fastest growing forms of debt which has grown at an average rate of 11.5% a year (Credit Bureau Report 2011).
