Have you thought about putting your loans on your credit card, which would get you current, then actually paying them off?

Comment on What Does a College State University Has to Offer? by Kt

Kt — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 07:08:59 +0000

yes it does. i attended the school down in c-bus. its a terrible program and i dont suggest it. i left after two years to finish elsewhere. Also, when I left, seven of my friends in the program left as well. Ohio honeslty is not a great state for sciences, specifically environmental. schoold to check out in this state are Ashland University, Oberlin College if your looking for a bachelors and beyond. If your looking for an associates degree check out Hocking Tech or Kent State (warren campus). The University of Akron offers as well…i dont knw how good the program is though. If you need more help…emial me id be glad.

The most popular solutions to the problem of heavy debt burden is to get a debt settlement or file for bankruptcy. Among these two debt settlement is preferred as it has a relatively less impact on credit report. In this article we assess the benefits and drawbacks of debt settlement.

Debt settlement is a process in which an organization will go to your lenders and negotiate with them regarding your debt. The purpose of the whole exercise is to reduce your debt burden. If a settlement company is good it can get your debt reduced by as much as 50%. This is what a creditor needs and this is the most visible benefit of debt settlement. The amount of the debt is reduced, the repayment plan is made easy and often the monthly installments are spread over a long period. This makes life a lot more easier for the borrower.

However, debt settlement is not without its drawbacks. There are two things to worry about. First, is the cost of debt settlement. Debt settlement companies will charge huge amounts for their services. The usual range is between 10-15% of the debt amount. Paying this much amount upfront can turn your financial situation from bad to worse. Read more from: http://www.credit-card-gallery.com/credit_card_debt_consolodation.html

You got good advise from your questions. I got one piece of advise that you should also consider. " If you’re gonna be a thief, make sure you can retire from it".

Hate to burst your bubble, but deliberately charging up your credit card and then declaring bankruptcy is considered fraud. If you were to do so, having posted your question here could probably be used as evidence against you.

Also, I’m fairly certain that new or recent debt can’t be included in a bankrupcty filing.
