Im working on paying off my credit card debt... and i just transferred my balance from a high interest card to one that was interest free for a year...

but this got me thinking...

Why wouldnt i just transfer my balance every year to a new car that had zero percent interest? Doesnt that make sense?

Or am i missing something here like it affects your credit score or something? Thanks!

I work in HR and I have to endure so much hostility from my co-workers. Our call centre has 800 workers and we in HR get flak from our reps for everything from our hours, to our workload, to our helpful suggestions.

Plus we have supervisors in other departments coming down on us for the quality of new hires.

It's very stressful! Why the hate for your friends in HR???

Im looking to consolidate; I've heard it has its pros and cons, but I really feel like I need to at this point. I heard about this company on the radio, but dont know anything about it. My husband is in construction, but has been working off and on for the past 3 months and it has set us back on all of our bills. Since the rainy season is coming I dont see our situation getting any better.

The market is horrific right now so as a small bonus I decided to pay HALF of the buyer's closing costs and I've already knocked off $25,000 for the buyer. I really think the buyer is trying to take advantage of me. The reason I feel this, because she is telling me to just pay her 3% of the cost of the home and that should take care of her closing cots but my thoughts are how would she know so soon what her closing costs will be when we haven't even gotten to the purchase agreement yet and the deal haven't even made it to the closing table. She is trying to get this 3% in writing, in the offer, but my point is how would she know that 3% of the cost of my home is going to equally cover her closing costs. If I give her 3% that could pay the closing costs and more. I am only interested in paying half her closing costs. How would I do this without being burned? How and when would I know the real cost of her closings costs so I can accurately pay that amount without going over?

My apartment is trying to evict me for reasons not stated under my lease. (charging me $200 for garbage bags outside my apartment) My lease is valid until 12/31/07. This is a different management company than the one i signed the lease with, however i never signed an adjusted lease. the also forged my initials on a duplicate copy of the first page of my lease.

can landlords make up rules not mentioned anywhere on a lease? i paid a pet deposit when i moved in b/c i had a dog. i gave that dog away, and recently got another dog. they are saying i have to pay them another $150 pet deposit. i paid all pet fees as associated with my lease upon move in. do i have to pay that?

i sent them a detailed letter about why i wasnt paying and that they were violating a lease. 10/07/07 is when i was told i would be evicted if i did not pay up.

if it goes to court, what can i expect?

i live in Arizona.

I just started keeping track of where my money goes. I created a budgeting sheet that allows me to record EVERYTHING total it up on a daily and weekly basis and make comparisons. However, as good as it is, it's only helping me save 1/2 to 1/4 of what I would really like to save. Any inexpensive suggestions out there???

I am a co-signer on a bank loan and the original borrower cannot pay the $34,000 that is due - not now, nor ever. Now since the loan is in default/collections, it is due immedietly.

I had no idea he was not willing to pay, but the trouble now is they want all the money now, or $1,400 a month for 2 years. The most I can afford to give is $800 a month (50% of my salary) but it seems the bank is unwilling to negotiate anything less, before they take "other actions".

Any ideas? I also own no property, or have any other collateral to my name. I am willing to work with them, but I don't make enough to pay them all back at once.
