Credit Canada’s Himank Bhatia, certified Credit Counsellor and Financial Coach, discusses what debt looks like in real life right now: payday loan spirals, divorce-driven debt, sports betting debt, and higher-income households living in “fragile luxury.” He explains how fear and shame keep people stuck, why minimum payments create an interest trap, and how support and structured plans (including options to freeze interest) can help people get out of debt.
