Important limits

This is an educational planning tool only. It is not financial, credit, legal, tax, bankruptcy, investment, accounting, or professional advice.

The workbook does not negotiate debt, contact lenders, repair credit, recommend loans, or guarantee payoff dates, interest savings, credit score changes, or financial results. Always verify balances, APRs, fees, and minimum payments with current lender statements. For collections, lawsuits, hardship plans, bankruptcy, credit reporting, or debt settlement questions, use official consumer resources and consult a qualified professional or reputable nonprofit credit counselor.
