Business & Finance - 8 November 2006

I bought a laptop and am very anxiously waiting for it right now.
The shipper used USPS and I looked at the tracking information and it says that it arrived at the unit today at 7:25 AM at my area code. Its been about 7 hours later and hasn't reached my house yet. When should it come? I'm guessing by this evening huh? There's a postal office just five minutes away from my house, I'm so impatient, arrrghhhh!!!

Im considering refinance possibilities.

Current:
$67,600
1st mortgage - 7% - very recent refi previously done due to layoff.

$15,000
Line of Credit (sorta a 2nd mortgage) - 9% - full

$9000
Credit card debt - mostly due to layoff going from making
$70,000 a year to $20,000 a year.
Various rates among 3 cards (all same bank).

Refinance reasons is obvious.
But ultimate reason is consolidate.

Recent attempts at getting estimates find most of the choices
are that a new primary might not be good enough to replace current (except on rate), but the costs are such to make it almost not doable.

On 2nd mortgage, seems that its not doable in that some rates are even above my current avg rate on my debt.

Suggestions?

Im leaning toward doing nothing except locking the lineofcredit into a shorterm fixed loan and using a future cashflow improvement to pay off debt (cashflow improvement is a investment that will actually pay the mortga

I’ve taken a look at ING Direct mutual funds, but I’m unsure if there are a good option or not; or if there are any other better than ING Direct.

At this time I’m unable to put a large amount of $$$ towards a mutual fund, I can at least put in $200 a month. – any ideas?

In 1995 purchased a GMC Jimmy from car lot in MI. Two weeks later vehicle was stolen from driveway. Insurance covered so much, but did not pay off loan. Now they insist I owe them $9000.00 Wich is hard for me to believe that I would have to pay for vehicle that I dont have. Anyways recently trying to buy a house, and had to pay off a few debts off credit report. Truck was on credit report,but said acct.closed. While paying other debts one company said they recently aqquired this debt, for the truck...I told them the acct. was closed per my credit report statement. they said that was'nt true. Now this has been 11 years ago since all this has started and I now live in AZ. Married with 2 kids and trying to buy my first home. Should this be off my Record by now? Or will I be haunted by this for the rest of my life? Any help appreciated...THX
