So here we go once more, yet another company claiming an increase of earnings. A recent declaration has British Gas claiming a 58% increase in revenue despite the fact that prices remain elevated for the customer.

This means that due to the recent frosty weather together with the swollen prices lots of of us are struggling to pay. Not only does this not help in our battle to get our head above water with day-to-day living expenses, but it may well also mean that we have more difficulty paying that wearisome debt we carry around like a noose around our neck.

Whether its bank loans, Credit Card Debt, paying for the family car, we struggle at the best of times to maintain a first-rate level of Debt Management. We certainly do not need our obligatory household expenses to be exorbitant when there is no need for them to be.

Scores of of us have used Debt Consolidation in an effort to lessen the burden and although this is a very useful preference, we really might do with a helping hand from the government to ensure we can do what they want us to – repay our debt.

According to this recent statement, there are more than six million UK households living in fuel poverty. In this day and age this has to be undesirable. It also tells us that notwithstanding British Gas cutting its prices over the last 7 months their increased profit margin indicates that there is not a lot of competitive pressure in the market.

By the time that the invoice lands on our door mat some other problem has to be paid for and we find ourselves putting off paying the credit card invoice. After all we have masses of time to pay it off haven’t we? But then yet an alternative temptation or emergency comes along and we yet once more have to use that little plastic friend to pay for it. We have good intentions to pay it off but oh, we’ve forgotten there is already X amount on the card. Whoops! Before we are aware of it we’ve gone from
