Oaki says,

You know what’s the best part of this tweet? It captures the central idea of the article and expresses it smartly. Impatience will invite debt troubles and patience will help to build wealth. An impatient man will divorce his wife quickly, he will switch houses frequently, buy what he wants even when it is beyond his affordability, etc. But, a patient man will work on his relationship and save a costly divorce, he will stay at his house and pay off mortgage and spend only within his means.

What a nice way to explain and compare the twin concepts within a few characters. Just Wow!

Debt avalanche method has been conceptualized on the basis of mathematical facts. It highlights only one fact - eliminate the highest interest today and pay less tomorrow. But, Dave Ramsey’s debt snowball method throws mathematical calculations into the garbage and focuses on the behavioral aspect of the debt. And that is, a few quick successive victories can boost your morale and encourage you to get debt free faster.

Oh! How can you even think that I can forget my darling, my OVLG? And how can I even afford to forget the horrific student loans? Really, this tweet is dedicated to all those who have lost their financial peace due to student loans. It gives a ray of hope to distressed students.

Well, this is simply hilarious. The tweet is catchy and hits your ‘think-tank’ directly. Which one is more important - your debt or a few extra pounds in your body? If you gain 25 extra pounds, then all your debt issues will be resolved. But if you want to maintain a good figure, then your debt issues will still be with you. Americans have already given their answer. Now, it’s your turn. Think and then give a reply.

Two things worked in this tweet. First, the timing. It was posted when the whole nation was busy in evaluating the importance of President’s Day. Secondly, the concept. The juxtaposition of two words - president and personal debt problems are enough to grab eyeballs. Who doesn’t want to get some juicy stories about others? And especially about the Presidents of our country?
