Monthly debt no more than 1/3 of income
Is it Worth it? Rules of thumb Monthly debt no more than 1/3 of income Total debt no more than annual salary Wage data helps individual evaluate The debt-to-income ratio is a standard tool for assessing whether a borrower will have difficulty meeting his or her repayment obligations. Most banks will refuse to issue a loan if the total of an individual’s monthly debt payments (i.e., mortgages, credit cards, auto loans, educational loans, etc.) exceeds 37% of income. It is recommended that educational loan payments represent no more than 10% to 15% of income. One recommended rule of thumb is that the manageable debt load is about the same as the starting salary
