Printable Debt Snowball Worksheet

The debt snowball worksheet lists your debts ordered from smallest balance to largest. You pay the minimum on everything, throw every extra dollar at the smallest balance, then roll that payment onto the next debt once it's gone.

The snowball orders debts by balance, not interest rate — paying off the smallest first delivers a quick, motivating win. (If you'd rather minimize total interest, order by highest APR instead; that's the "avalanche" method.) The worksheet totals your balances and minimum payments at the bottom.

How to use it: List debts smallest balance first, regardless of interest rate. When one is paid off, add its old payment to the next debt's minimum — that growing payment is the "snowball." Everything except the worksheet is stripped from the printout automatically, so what you see is what prints.
