We've come a long way in actively managing our personal finances, but there are still plenty of Americans laden with consumer debt. Can you guess how much credit card debt the average household is carrying? Take the quiz!

This makes me so glad I don't have any credit card debt... I have mortgage and that's enough!
1I only have medical bills and a student loan. I wouldn't be able to cope with credit card bills too.
2Wow. $8,000 on AVERAGE? I would be so stressed all the time if that was me.
3If I don't have the money to pay for it, then I just don't charge it on my credit card. I honestly don't understand being in credit card debt considering most people have mortgages and student loans.
4this makes me feel not as bad about my $3,000 credit card debt. It's stressing me out though and i am trying to get rid of it and not use credit cards anymore.
5Some of my clients owe more than $1000k
6I guess they help to raise the average debt amount lol
I found $8k shocking, too.
7If I had $8K in credit card debt, I'd definitely be a little stressed out. We have a mortgage and student loan payments every month; I'd hate to also have a credit card payment on top of that.
8I have no credit card debt BUT I have a revolving line of credit for my business that is almost exactly the same 8,329 freaky!!!
9Funny how there is an ad on this same page for a Mastercard.. "even if your credit is less than perfect" GEEZ
10we are active duty military and currently have $52,000 in credit debt --$34,000 of which is due to moving expenses. we are required to pay 6% of our moving costs every time we move--thank you uncle sam.
11the other 18 is due to our own stupidity.
