off their credit card debt during their working lifetime by
making minimum credit card payments each month.

years to pay off a credit card debt balance based upon a 19%
interest rate and a minimum monthly payment of 2.1% of the
outstanding balance.
At the time this information was compiled,

2.4% of the outstanding balance.
