You can decide for yourself if that’s the way for you to go but that’s what I did, I did from the smallest amount to the largest that I owed, okay. The other way is from the highest interest rate, on each card or loan, to the lowest amount of interest rate that you’re being charged. And the reason some people use this method is because you can save the most money while you’re paying it off. For example, your first loan is the highest interest rate, when you pay that off, you’re no longer being charged at real high interest rates. So you’re saving on the interest that they will pay you every billing cycle, okay.
