some problems with Student Debt, needing help
I am in a world of trouble. After graduating from professional school (Chiropractic), my life took some ugly turns and I turned to some bad things, and became increasingly depressed and neurotic. I have not become licensed to practice. In all this time I have simply ignored all the inquiries by the loan people, save a consolidation (and missed one small-ish loan from the college), and the collections people are claiming over $230,000! 6 years post-graduation - yes, I haven't paid o...

Solving the Third World Debt Problem
How to solve Nigeria's foreign debt problem?_Personally, I think Mr Willimas is making a great mistake by saying that we should lengthen the time of the debt. This I believe would increase the total amount owed. What I believe should happen, is that we should shorten the length of debt, and then service the debt with oil, rather than funds. We should approach OPEC, and table our case. This is a big disgrace. Mr Rilwanu Lukman should, as the chairman of OPEC, explain why Nigeria needs...

who can tell me about Self Help Free Debt Elimination
I would like to consolidate all my debt. However I have so many debts out there that i dont know who i owe anymore. I admit that is sad, but I just got a job and want to pay it all off. Is there any way that i can find out who all i owe and how much? Will a credit report show all my creditors, amount owe, account numbers, and so on? Also the sites I have been receiving are for consolidation loans. I would doubt that a person with bad credit would even qualify for a loan. If they di...

right links for Personal Debt Help
Can someone answer some of these questions and/or point me to the right links? 1. I am under the impression that Americans carry too much debt. Would this be an accurate assessment? I am under the impression the economy of American has been fueled by this debt, and had been able to stay afloat. People have borrowed too much money and they can't afford to pay it back. People are living paycheck to paycheck because of this. I assume with prominance of advertising for bankruptcy ser...

how to solve Non Profit Debt
have unfortunately gotten into a credit situation where I have good credit but have two credit cards which are currently killing me and it won't be long before I have quite bad credit. Namely, a Visa card with ridiculous interest rates (because I apparently was late on two payments the percentage rate went from 11.9% to 25%)- Trying to dispute it did nothing for me. I am, of course concerned about my credit as i've spent years making it good. I already have a large outstanding (max...

live debt free or work 90 hours a week when I graduate from law school. ?
I have applied to 8 schools. I can really use some helpful input about each of them. I am graduating this May with my bachelors and masters in accounting, tax emphasis, from the University of Florida. I am considering tax law and more specifically estate planning. I have done an intership for a Big 6 firm and am not too keyed up on tax anymore. Basically I am unsure of what I want.

seeking for legal advice about credit card debt
I want to transfer my credit card debt to another card or cards with the lowest possible interest rate. What is the best way to do that, of what should I be aware, etc? (All my debt is unsecured. I've had two marginally late payments in the last two years. Don't know my 'score': is it advantageous to me to find out and, if so, how can I use whatever it is to my advantage, etc.?) Is there an authoritative site on the web that addresses the subject? Does applying for such cards in an...

wondering about irs debt any help ?
I owe taxes to the IRS for the years 2000-2004, and have an installment agreement to pay it back. I was married last year (2006) - will my new husband be responsible for this debt? I realize that if I file a return that shows I am due a refund, the refund will be applied toward my debt. If we file jointly and are due a refund - will they do the same? What if we file separately? Will any refund he is due be taken to pay toward my debt? Common sense would tell me that if I inc...

any help for the debt problem
am in about £30000 debt with credit cards loans etc i am having problems paying now and am just paying of one card with the other is there any way out of this black hole_I normally advise: Pay the minimum possible on all debts and whatever else you can afford, pay off of the debt with the smallest balance. Every month or so you manage to kill off one of the debts. The next smallest now becomes your smallest. And so the cycle goes until the debts are gone. but 30,000 pounds...

needing help for getting out of your own debt
I need some advice to help us get out of credit card debt. We took out a large loan last year to do some work on our house. And we are able to pay over the minimum amount but the interest eats up most of that, and we can not put more that a few dollars in savings. Would it be a good idea to take out a bill consolidation loan?_First thing is to put the credit cards away or cut them up till you get out of debt. A bill consolidation load would then be a good idea as long as the inter...
