<prompt> Human: I have a credit card that lost the 0 interest on it. I didnt pay it off in time so now i have about 2,600 in credit debt at 22.99. I also have stock from an employee purchase program that I can sell today for about 1,060. It seems Im losing more money in the stock than making money, and I dont see the benefit in making less in the stock than Im paying for in credit interest every month. Should I sell the stock to pay the debt? I figure it would cut my interest every month by almost half allowing me to pay the debt faster. Thoughts?  <response>: Your debt is accruing interest faster than your investment ever will. Assuming this is your only source of available cash, Id use it to pay the debt immediately.
