Good debt is money borrowed to help you reach important long-term goals or build future value. Common examples include mortgages, student loans, education loans for learning a trade or profession, and business loans. These types of debt can help you build wealth, increase your earning potential, or create a business asset. Even so, good debt can become bad debt if you borrow more than you can realistically repay or pay an unnecessarily high interest rate.
