I bought the truck new in aug 05. Traded it in around sept of 06 because my gas bill was reaching $500 a month. Bought a honda cr-v which gets much better milage. DIdn't want to give up my truck but felt like I couldn't afford to keep paying for gas. I traded the Truck in for 11,000 less than it originally cost a year ago. I feel like high gas prices put me in a position where I couldn't afford to keep the vehicle and had to take a big loss on it. I use this vehicle as a primary means to get to work is that or could that be a business loss or some other loss.

The social worker is telling my retired mom (nearly 65) to deplete her IRA (her only savings) to pay for very expensive home health care (has no insurance and doesn't qualify because she is married of allt hings) like TPN and nursing and such. Even if she did this, it wouldn't be enough to cover everything (she has cancer and it most likely will recur after this course of treatments).

Can the County hospital force her out like this? Her IRA is small and her bills for the last 4 months are enormous. The IRA has to be used for her basic living expenses, but the hospital doesn't want to hear any of that. If she refuses to pay for the home care, then what happens? The Dr wanted to keep her in for at least another week to see how the tumor goes.

I just don't want my mom to be broke and homeless and having cancer!

I recieved a check from my insurance company, and endorsed it, and made it payable to my aunt so she could deposit it in her account. Her bank accepted it and deposited it into her checking. My question is.... could the bank from which the funds are being drawn from have a problem with me endorsing it over to my aunt?

After they come off your credit report, do they still affect your credit score? Are you still responsible for paying them? By the way, im talking about medical bills.

he was there for 2.5 years, and was asst. man., the employees he was going to talk to the cops about, happen to be the new manager and her niece!(the niece is engaged to a convicted drug dealer) the only reason he was fired is because the manager is blackmailing the owner.

my friend was even laid off for 2 weeks, just to make sure he wasn't the one stealing food(at the rate of 500+ a week), while he was laid off, the man. and niece told everyone he was fired for stealing! my friend didnt go into work that whole time, and food was still missing, so he went back to work. he was laid off in spring of 2005, was fired in jan 2006.

2 questions!

1-should he put them on his resume? if he does, how can he stop the old job from lying about him?

2-if this happened to you, what would you do?

ps
he did get a letter from unemployment, stating that he was fired for wanting to talk to the police, and he did get unemployment.

okay, well i used to have phenomonally great credit...but there has now been a few things.
first, i have a house i'm trying to sell and that's up there now..
but my question is there has been a mix up with a utility company that i had for service about 2 years ago. they are saying i owe them money and had sent it to a collection agency. i wasn't even living stateside for the time that the amount accumulated, and so i have tried disputing it. basically it's been in progress since october, and they are still sitting on it like fat chumps. i have contacted a lawyer about it and basically they have told me it's sitll in the company's time frame to handle my dispute so i can't do anything aobut it right now. how bad is it going to effect my credit and whatnot?? when i moved back to the states i had to go through credit chekcs for EVERYTHING and took a lot of hits b/c of them..so i'm becoming very nervous about loosing my good standings i had when it was 760. any suggestions??

Is it legal for a creditor to call you and start harresing you saying that you are looser and you are not going to make payment and that they are going to sue you and all the bad stuff they wanna say to you?

I was screwed by a sale guy and a company to signup for $6000 contract for a credit card mechaine that acutally cost $500.00. The sales guy left the company just after signing that contract for me.
I have already paid $2400 but now I want to fight this. When the bill collector called me, I asked him to provide me the info on this bill but he said why should he provide it. He said he is going to sue me.

and you've kept in touch with him after he left, and if you run into him again, would you pay him the same kind of respect you did when he was your boss? Or would you treat him like he's a friend/acquaintance/buddy?
