What will you do with the money?
Buy a private property?
Donate to charity?
Just tell me what you would do.

I am going to transfer to a university for the fall, and want to quit my pizza delivery job, and sell my car and just ride my bike a couple of miles to get to school. I need to lose weight, and it will be tight not working, but I will have more time on my hands for school and activities and since gas is so high why even bother? Well I will be able to pay my few bills (rent, food and phone bill) with grants, loans and the little savings that I have. Whar do you guys think? Have you done this kind of thing before? The grocery store is accross the street, and any student can ride the bus for free so you can get to the mall etc. Bills would be approx 700/mo

Some problems came up and I was only able to cover $4000. They still have my check and are pressuring me for the rest. The bank has the car title. Can the car lot take the car away? If not, what else can they do?

In the startup company I work for, my boss can't afford to pay me what he knows I deserve right now (but will hopefully be able to in less than a year) and wants me to hold off and wait. I told him that if I am not going to be compensated financially then at least I should have good benefits.

Besides for insurances and 401ks (which are out due to small company) what should I demand?

How many sick days?
How many vacation days?
How many legal holidays?

What other perks can I request to compensate for my hard work?

My ex is filing for bankruptcy, he is 60grand in debt. A couple a months ago my 89 Berlina finally died and as an extremely nice gesture he financed a 2004 commodore but put it in my name as we had just found out our one year son needed surgery and would require many car trips to Princess Margaret Hospital.

But as the story goes he is way in over his head now and cannot afford the repayments on all of his debts.

But seeing as he put the car in my name I was wondering if they will take my car away. I'm not upset if they do but I was wondering if they can take a car off someone that was given to them as a gift.

I filed for divorce back in April. My husband was the person who paid the huge bills such as our mortgage. He is now behind on the mortgage and it's showing up on my credit report. He has also maxed out our joint credit cards. I did get a job, but I'm only making $10 an hour. Making that amount doesn't allow me to pay all of my credit cards and a very high mortgage. I'm hearing that I should declare bankruptcy, but I don't want to do that if I don't have to. Is there anything at all that I can do to get me out of this credit nightmare without going the bankruptcy route. I've already called my creditors and explained the situation. Some were sympathetic with my situation, but others really didn't care. They still want there payments on time. Someone told me credit counselor's, but where do I find them at? So I'm just looking for an option other then bankruptcy to help me out. Any sound information would be greatly appreciated.
