in response to seekinghelp2012...how do you eat an elephant? one bite at a time. the answer is a snowball effect with a livable budget. key word livable. you cannot live on romen noodles and staying home. but you can eliminate that debt on your own con-solidation places are just that. even if they are ligit and mean well the power needs to lye on you. i have done this too. live and learn trust me snow ball that 500.oo a month in ten months you would have taken care of 5,000 of that debt, but at the rate it will go faster than that. because your other debts will be eliminated entirely. write down all of you debts even if there is an over due library book. 1 dollars. to largest debt home mortguage. pay only the minimum payments on all of them and focus the remaining money on the smallest or smallest 2-3 debts say a furniture bill or small credit card. and then pour the savings into next months debts and repeat. i got a easy to under stand from a chapter in the book called "Getting control: the complete guide to getting yourself out of horrible debt by troy flora available on amazon.com good luck! any qestions just ask me. i did it and you can too.
in response to bookworm2011...Little bit of this and a little bit of that. Haha No nothing new. Sounds like you have your hands full. Tell the one who's going to Mexico to be careful. It's deffaniately not like America in most of the country, to much corruption. Just have him keep his eyes open and when someone says duck they aren't talking foul.The one being potty trained, I'm not touchig that with a ten foot pole.You are probably right about the girls, when any kid and I mean any is quit for any length of time count on trouble of some sort.
in response to Schmidty...I've been around..doing a little of this, a little of that lol
working mostly and forever busy with my kids..one is about to go to Mexico to build an orphanage so running around trying to get his passport in time..the other is potty training..vast differences! Both extremely important nontheless..and my girls have both been pretty quiet this week, which spells trouble in some form or the other..thats about it, how about you? Anything new?

Hey. That is such a cute dog in your profile picture. I love small dogs. I wish I could have pets were I live. They said i could have fish but who wants a fish. You cant pet it or walk it or play with it.
in response to seekinghelp2012...Consolidating debts is rarely the best way to go in trying to reduce your debt levels. Best thing to do is to develope a budget and a plan and stick to it.
Does anyone know of a place to consolidate debts for persons with bad credit. I would even consider peer to peer lending if there are any wealthy individuals willing to help a single, graduate student, with a full time job. I've suffered some financial misfortunes but I'm trying to get back on track. I need about $50,000 and I can comfortably pay be $450 - $550 per month. Please help in any way that you can and it will be greatly appreciated.
in response to Schmidty...Dumb...Dumb....Dumb I sent a message to the your counter partThen I realized after sometime that you had changed your name, had to change your name. I can't figure out why.
All this upgrading that AIDPAGE has done , or at least says they have done has only made it slower and now the one to one is screwed up, it goes to a little white box and hangs up.Can't type nothing, have to go back a page or click out completely. Both of those would surely be a turn on for anyone just coming to the site, it's a shame it use to be a damn good site. Not no more.
Enough , Heres wishing that you have a happy and prosperous new year.Trala boomde a.
in response to bookworm2011...That is fantastic.It soounds like you will do well.I'm happy for you. Looks like wishing you a properous new year wasn't a shot in the dark. Am I going to see commercials about your school on TV? lol
You have a wonderful new year. Best wishes. Keep in touch when you can.
in response to Schmidty...Hey again Schmidty..my business is tutoring.I work for teaching public schools but have began my own tutoring business due to high demand in my area..I homeschool my kids and the charter school I homeschool them through wants to set me up as a vendor, they would send kids to me so that would mean quitting my teaching job and relying full time on referrals..so Im going to give it a go and see where it leads...my best wishes to you in 2012..I hope that you have a wonderful new year as well..
cheers!!
in response to bookworm2011...Laying ground work for a business seems to be the order of the day..Very glad that you and the kids have enjoyed the festivities of this season. The lights are a major attraction for adults and children alike.

in response to seniorvet...If you go to www.grantgate.com or www.thefederalmoneyretriever.com you'll find a very discriptiveArticle on how and what you need to write a grant.The programs themselves also help including the 'letter of inquiry". That grant writer may be you! Is there something you need specific that I could help with? Good Luck and God Bless

Help! I need help on bills. I've been disabled for some time now (I had a stroke). I have a couple of bills that have gone into collections, and I was talking to a collector recently who mentioned these resources. If it's possible I would like to get these bills paid off. There are a couple that are $2000 and not being able to work to pay these off has become a problem. I don't make enough with disability to make payment arrangements in order to pay these off. I'm considered permanently disabled. I want to work, but because of the tremor I have in my left hand and very limited use of it, I'm not able.

Thank you for the kind words but they aren't neccessary. You might check the post I have for free legal, but it sounds as if you need an ombudsman, don't ask me why they are called that, I don't know. Anyway:

Shouldn't cost but I 'm not sure of that. Good Luck and God Bless
HI, I was told to send this question along to you. I was told that you have amazing knowledge and resources. I do hope they are right because I need a knowledge guru right about now. Here is the original message,
Hi, I need some information on financial aid for legal issues. I realize there are attorneys who offer sliding fee arrangements but I actually need to find somebody who will help with an education related legal matter. The local school district is unwilling to give my two disabled children the educational services they need and after a very long battle with the school and educational advocates and other agencies, i have hired an educational attorney who knows the district and is willing to go all the way to get my kids what they need but the price tag is hefty. So I need some resources that can help with something like this. Most local agencies won't touch this because it is legal. So I am left scrambling. It will cost a lot but how does one put a price tag on a child's future?
