Credit Card Debt Continues to Plague Americans

Once again, credit card debt is on the rise for consumers.

According to a new study by NerdWallet, the average household holds a balance of $15,355 in debt.

Debt levels are down from the 2008 recession, when debt averaged around $17,000, but they are up from March 2014, when levels were around $14,000.
