Given the current economy, would doing a “charge-off” on my credit cards be a reasonable option, and how would I go about doing it for my biggest benefit? Many years ago I had a college credit card that I couldn’t afford to pay off. I finally asked about a charge-off on it; about 80% […]
My life is a mess. I’m in debt over my head, without a steady income, and in the midst of a personal crisis. What can I do to get back on my feet and get some direction in life? I don’t even really know where to start, but here goes. I am a guy in […]
Should I get a Ph.D.? So I’m about to graduate from a top-25 law school. I’ve got a respectable but not stellar GPA (the school doesn’t rank). I spent my last two summers working for a U.S. Attorney’s Office and the Federal Communications Commission. Yay me.
Except that I don’t have a job yet, and […]
My Mom’s wages are being garnished by a collection agency. Can we still settle the debt? How much do we offer and where do we get the money? My mother’s Ford Fiesta bit the dust a month ago and she needed to get a new car. Her hours have recently been cut at her old […]
Due to a breakdown in negotiations, I have $30,000 more student debt than I thought, leaving me with $35k. I live very, very simply, and after college I wanted to go travel the world for a few years and not worry about a career or marriage or consumer debt. Am I totally, completely screwed into […]

Help, need relationship/life advice… I’m staying at home for the time being to help out my family instead of jetting off to another city to be with my boyfriend. Target move date is in January but we’re both getting insanely antsy and we have the same conversation every day about me just going there NAO. […]
I did my Australian taxes late. I’m now being charged a general interest charge on a $7.5k Higher Education Debt that didn’t exist at the time. Is there anything I can do?
