Can I refinance my mortgage? I just lost my job and want to take advantage of the government’s mortgage help?
barbi1025 asked:
Is there something I can do to lower the interest rate on my mortgage? I just got laid off and was earning more than my husband. My husband’s salary is low because he’s a salesman and makes commission…and of course times being what they are, those commissions are lower now too. I keep reading about how the government is trying help people with their mortgages. We are no where near foreclosure though – if it ever got that bad luckily I have a great family that would try to help us for a few months before it got to that. But I wanted to know if there is something I take advantage of now that won’t affect our credit or anything.

I have somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 thousand dollars of dischargeable debt. I am college educated and usually able to logic my way out of a box.

how does a bankruptcy affect my job or future prospects?
Jennifer L asked:
Will my employer find out if I file for bankruptcy? Will I ever be able to teach if I file? I know they do extensive background checks for teachers, but will a bankruptcy be a red flag for that profession?

personal loan?
Vlad B asked:
So about 3 months ago i bought a house as an investment in texas from my uncles. Market value was 93000 i put down 20k and i now owe 73000. the problem is that ever since i bought it the bills have been killing i make aroud 3k a month and my bills add up to 2600…. I need to somehow get a loan to somehow give me some breathing room untill i sell it (in 6-7 months) but since my net/debt ratio is so huge no lender will lend me the money. Even though i told them i plan on selling the house for around 100k (25k) profit in 6 months and pay back the loan.
So what i planned is to sign up and go back to school (online) (i was thinking about it anyways) and use that as a loophole to borrow on a student loan basis as well as federal stafard loans with very low interst and pay back after i finish school. What do yall think? do I have any solutions?
