Total Debt Amount
Debt snowball method prioritizes paying off smallest debts first while maintaining minimum payments on others. As each debt is eliminated, that payment rolls into the next debt, creating momentum. This psychological approach provides quick wins, boosting motivation to continue. While not the most mathematically optimal method, snowball's emotional appeal makes it effective for sustained debt elimination in India where debt stress is common. The method works because humans are motivated by visible progress and quick wins more than abstract interest savings. Paying off first debt in 6 months feels like achievement; abstract interest savings of ₹2L over 5 years doesn't motivate immediate action.
