Personal Finance - April 2007

I received a letter telling me to send $1 to 6 people in the letter. There is a several pages to the letter that explains it but in short if you send out 200 copies of the same letter and at only 7.5 percent return you can end up making alot of money because you add your name to the list and people send you $1. It sounds like it would work. Has anyone done this and had results?

I took my car to Jiffy Lube for an oil change, 2 months later, it died while I was driving. I find out that they forgot to replace a plug during the oil change and fried my engine (sucked the timing chain into the motor and tore it to pieces). I just got a quote from the dealership of $8k to replace it. Jiffy Lube won't do anything and I really don't have $$ to hire a lawyer. I still owe on this car and don't know what to do. Any suggestions would be helpful.

What Im saying is a unknown third party takeing a trust and posing as trustee just to handle asell and is limited to list home in 15 days but does not and court accepted her on not chose her does the original trustee have right to take back trustee if not why , she signed the contract with other heirs to sell and the 15 day limit was in such contract . the new trustee to handle sell was not included in this contract by name and having only signed the acceptance of trustee (not a heir at all just a stranger) would that be a overlooked error per council as i missed it and she is now a yr later still not listing and or accepting my first right to denial of the purchase its been ignored help me please i never thought for a minute unloading some duties with assuming she knew what she was hired for , if had knew this could happen why would i have been packing looking for a home and now unable to do anything along with being a new grandma and want to move by them trustee could care a less why

I have about 20k available in cash, currently in a money market / CD / and mutual fund.
This does not include my current 401K, IRA or stock holdings so future assets are not going to be touched, but it is a good portion of the cash on hand.

Current Liabilities
Mortgage (high)
2nd Mortgage - (~50K)
Car Loan (19K)

Should I:
Pay off the car loan (saving $500 month - thus allowing future savings)
Pay down the 2nd
Invest it or Do nothing?

Advice is greatly appreciated.
