Bad debt is debt that makes you poor. Bad debts are expenses or liabilities that do not put any money in your pocket each month. Bad debt is, in every case we could think of, consumer debt. Most of the items you would consider putting on your credit card would fall into this category.

Good debt, when understood and managed properly, is debt that makes you wealthy. Wealthy people have debt, and are not afraid of using debt. The difference is, it is usually some form of good debt. These debts are expenses associated with a successfully managed business or real estate investment, or liabilities associated with acquiring a cash-flowing business or piece of real estate.

In other words, bad debt is always a liability, while good debt is debt associated with assets.
