I am in the process of considering filing bankruptcy and I have 2 cars that I have and they are both on loans….one is for 6900 and the other one is for 3000 I have both of them because one is for me and the other one is for my boyfriend he pays his and I pay mine and I have never had a problem with him paying his car payment.. (just in case some of you want to say that I shouldn’t have a car in my name for someone else I already know this) Thank you!

I still owe a couple thousand on my car payment through Wachovia bank and I read online today about a possible combination between them and Morgan Stanley. Will that effect my loan at all if the combination goes through?

If Wachovia ends up going "bankrupt" how will that effect my loan?

I am confused as to what to do – my husband and I recently reconciled and between the two of us, we have ,000 in unsecured credit card debt. Although he makes very good money, approx. 00 per month, we cannot keep up on all the minimum payments for these cards, let alone trying to pay the principal.

He has a car payment and we own our house (or we will in 27 years anyway – we have not been late on the mortgage as that is our top priority. We also have 4 kids…… should we file? We figure since we have the house and vehicles that we can deal with the bad, bad credit that this will result in but are we forgetting something?

We considered a debt consolidation but we heard this is more often then not a scam and ruins your credit as much as or more then a bankruptcy. Any advice is appreciated ~ thank you.
Unfortunately all the late payments have resulted in a credit rating in the 500’s which is too low to qualify for a re-fi.

my wife has a few credit cards in which she has about 6k in debt. then she took out her 401k in order to pay some off(which brought it down to 6k) and so we both got nothing back from our taxes and now we owe the irs 4k. then we got a car payment we are paying for which is another 6k. now we are trying to pay it off but its a lot and i need some ideas on how to pay this debt without bankruptcy or using a debt settlement company? i have debt too but its like 2k so i’m worried about hers first. i’m at my whits end and need some help please!
the car loan we have in not exactly a lein. i was sold a car on a bogus payment plan and we took out a loan to pay off mine while she used her car as colateral. so we are still paying this loan.

I have so much debt. I can pay for my house mortgage and my car payment but it’s my credit card bills that kill. I have been choosing to pay only my mortgage and car bills. What can I do? I know I can’t make payments on my cards without it effecting me being able to pay for my house and car. Can I file for Bankruptcy? I know I made a mistake charging up a storm. If I file for BK I don’t what to lose my home.

I will be done with paying my 4 year chapter 13 bankruptcy in August, and I am worried about my student loans that I will have to start to pay back. I have already been on a tight budget, and the student loans will be like an expensive car payment that i can not afford.

Is re consolidation the only thing I can do?

I got into financial trouble after my divorce when my ex wasn’t paying child support. I am still so far behind there is no way I can ever catch up! I want to file bankruptcy, but when I called a bankruptcy attorney he said it will cost me 00 up front to file. If I could afford to pay that, I wouldn’t need to file bankruptcy! Help! Is there another way to file without paying all those fees?
Let me add that I have not been paying these creditors for a very long time. I can barely afford to pay rent, utilities, car payment and put food on the table for my kids. There is NO WAY I can come up with that kind of money!

A few months ago, I was laid off from my job, became ill and and fell behind on my debts. I don’t have a mortgage or car payment. Most of my debts are unsecured credit card debts. I fear that my only option is to file bankruptcy.

What is the average cost of filing bankruptcy in the state of NY?

I need to file for bankruptcy and need to know if i need to take any classes for financial management to sastify the courts and what will I need for the courts and such. Im so scared but I need to do this.
To fill everyone in before you judge my husband ( now seperated) stole all of my bill money while I was working 16 hour days and was pregnant with our child. As he was sitting on his lazy ass at home doing whatever drugs he choose to spend my car payment and credit card payments on I was going bankrupt and didnt know it till they took my car and shut off my electric with a newborn son! Thank everyone for juding me claiming I was irresponsible when I wasnt! I had excellent credit before that douche bag! Also do I file for bankruptcy or divorce first?

I am beginning to regret going to college, it seems the only thing I have attained from it, is debt. When I went to school I was allured to the dream of being an airline pilot. I finally got my pilot’s license, but it got to expensive, so I switched to Aviation Management. I am so depressed and mad at myself for letting this happen, and it seems like there is no way out. A few times I forgot to fill out the FAFSA so I had to take out loans to cover the expenses, or I was late getting it in and got no money.

Here’s where I am at:
1 Loan for ,000 (Monthly Payments of 476/mo); 1 Loan for 620 (Monthly Payments of 128); 1 Loan for 00 (Monthly Payments of 50), and Credit Card Debt of about 00. So I have loans totaling 420.

I also have a car payment, cell phone, however I pay no rent, but my grandparents will soon be asking for that.

I just got a new job that pays me 000 per year. So if I don’t put anything into savings I can pay off my loans in about 4 years, however when you begin to figure in my other expenses it’s more like 7 years.

Consolidation is not really an option, because the 000 is an “Education Alternative Loan”, it’s not a federal loan. The 00 loan is a no interest loan. And the 620 is a direct federal loan.

-My dilemma is that, I have a girlfriend that I want to begin a life with. I wish to get an apartment with her maybe in the next year or so. And I want to marry her.

Situation 1- Do I put no money into savings and just tackle the loans head on? I will have no money for retirement or a down payment on a house.

Situation 2- I put some money aside into savings, and it will take longer to pay off?

Situation 3- Declare bankruptcy if I can?

I apologize for this taking so long, but I don’t know what to do. Thank you for your help.

We have been struggling month to month to make our car payment, which has really high interest since Jan. of 2007. At the time the dealers told us most people just take the high rate and refinance after 6-18 months, well we’ve had the SUV for two years now, and no one will refinance, and my husband is getting out of the military which doesn’t even pay enough, but it pays for your housing, so we are looking at a thousand less a month to stretch our budget. I’m wanting to file for bankruptcy, but my husband is insisting we don’t. Is there another alternative?

Bought a brand new car 6 mo’s ago. Had 2 g’s in negative equity in previous car which obviously rolled over to this one. Have a 600 beacon so got high interest rate on new car. Just made 6th payment and owe about 7 g’s more on it than what Kelly blue book says its worth on trade. With the credit market the way it is I don’t see a way out of this vehicle. The payment is too high on it for me now because I lost my job and have been unable to find a similar paying job for past 3 months, and I can’t get unemployment. Haven’t missed a payment or been late on this car or the previous one I had for just over a year. I only have about 0 in credit card debt, but am maxed out basically. Have other various debt from years back. At this point I don’t see how I’ll be able to come up with car payment and rent at the end of December, so I need to figure something before then.Is there anything I can do?

I recently had an unwilling job change with my company and took a ,000 a year pay cut. I can’t even afford to eat. I have three credit cards, a computer that’s financed and about 00 in hospital bills. My car payment is 0 a month. Yah, I know but I could afford it a year and a half ago. Should I file bankruptcy or try to take out a personal loan to pay everything off and get caught up. My car is about to get repossessed unless I voluntarily surreder it. Who knows best?
