Negative Impact of Debt on Future Financial Choices

Debt fundamentally limits present financial choices by reducing future options due to the past self making less informed decisions. The burden of debt leads to sacrificing future flexibility, forcing the future self, who possesses more knowledge, to deal with limited financial freedom caused by previous unwise choices.
