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 truckerdoug58...Exactly!!! I'm back in Atlanta now, and I am looking for every little bit of work so I can pay these people off their money. I use to drive trucks in the army and now I would love to go to school for my CDL lic..
Well I hope you get everything situated for yourself. I am really deep in the hole which I must crawl out of; but I'm slowly making my way out.
in response to ras1811...Pat It seem you and I are kinda in the same boat. I was a long haul truck driver. I have two tickets not paid that has my lic. suspended. The speeding ticket in Ohio 145.00 I know I owe. The overweight ticket in manchester Tn. The company was susposed to pay. They didn't now I owe 170.00 for it. With reinstatement fee, dup. copy of lic. and all 650. will put my CDLs back in my hands.I just had to have neck surgery Dec.20. I have not been able to work since July 2010. What is born and bread Americans supposed to do when they have no way to do any thing? I dont quailfy for Tenn. care, to help with medical help.I could go back to work in no time with my lic.
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?

Greetings everyone. I want to share a problem I have. For five years I have been trying to resolve a traffic violation that was given to me due to lack of funds. I use to be a U.S. soldier in the active duty Army. When I no longer was in the Army, I decide to enroll in college. Well one particular day over five years ago, I was trying to film a school project from my vehicle. Honestly I did not have any money compared to the amount of money that was being paid to me from the military. Times was hard and I had no insurance on my vehicle, to include expired license plates, and expired registration when I was attempting to film a project. The police assumed that I could be part of some terrorist organization because I was trying to film planes at a small regional airport. The vehicle was towed by the police for lack of all the traffic violations. Every since those fines, I have not been able to obtain a good job without drivers license since my license was revoked due to the traffic violations. The fine is $1,405.00 all together since it was three different violations. I have not been able to save nor raise that kind of money, because over the last five years I spent 3 and a half of those years a full time college student. I really need to find a way or some help to remove this from my record so I can possess license and obtain a decent or excellent career or job. I have had a few small jobs, but they only assisted me in helping pay rent, food, public transportation, and utilities. I really would like to do better for myself, and help others in the process. If only I could resolve this problem, then I will be able to return the favor to someone who needs the help one day. Does any person out there know a logical solution, or can anyone lend a helping hand? Thanks for reading this.
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 MOM MOM...WE are supposed to pray without ceasing. I pray that God will continue to guide you, and I to pray at the appointed time it is needed. Deception is increasing, and pressing into God will be more important then ever. God has revealed many different things to people through prophecy, and events.
This is the day of man. If you think about the fulfillment of book of Revelation being fulfilled in our life time is unthinkable. God is still God, and God can still do the impossible even in the midst of the unthinkable. The unthinkable is happening, and continue's to increase under our nose's as we speak. For instance. The failure of the economy is planned in advanced by the Elite. (International bankers)
They plan to totally cause massive debt, and collapse the economy before the end of 2012.
Why? It is demonically influenced step by step to usher in the New World Order.
Global government. This will happen in my life time.
God is still calling out to people, but sadly many won't listen to the call. Many put it off until another time, but they don't know when there last breath will be. Many never had the opportunity because they waited until it was to late.
I pray that your faith will not fail you!
Shalom, love, and blessing's.
Mike
in response to bookworm2011...Well, how are you doing.Haven't seen you on here for awhile. Curious about the name change, what's up. How have you been and how are things going for you.I know that sandy24 was worried about you alsol
Good to have you on here again. May God Bless
in response to carolmom65...It seems reasonable but I am not a lawyer, it would be best to talk to a lawyer and seee what he says. Many allow a free consultation.
can i sue an ex landlord for not taking care of roaches? i just found out, i am very ill because of exposer to the roaches. i now have H.pylori and antibiotics arent working.
in response to Need_yeshua...Mike I hope that you are like me and pray for the world. We have become so sick because of our separation from GOD and CHRIST who purchased our Salvation. I fear for where we are headed next. My faith is constantly evoulving and strengthening and I don't understand those who feel the same. But I pray for them.
