Forty-five thousand in twenty-four months is roughly $2,150 a month every month. There are no slow weeks. There is no birthday month, no holiday month, no broken-furnace month where you scale back. The deadline does not care about life events. It is achievable for some incomes; for most, it is the first overpromise of a plan that lasts seven months and then resets.

Avalanche is the only viable method at this velocity. With $2,150/month flowing into the debt, every dollar landing on the highest-rate balance accelerates the next pivot. Snowball would close small balances first regardless of rate; that is fine on a four-year payoff but lethal on a two-year deadline where every month of misallocated extra payment is a missed deadline at the back end.

On $45,000 at a blended 12.5%, paying just the $787 minimum finishes in 84 months at $21,200 interest. To finish in 24 months you need $2,150/month, which costs about $6,200 in interest — recovering five years of life and saving $15,000 versus the minimum-only path. The lever is the payment, not the method; method matters at the margins.
