I want to apply for a car loan, but am afraid I will get turned down. I have all of my credit cards paid off, but have around $12,000.00 in student loans and owe $4,000.00 on the car I am currently driving. I only make around $27,000.00 a year. Will my debt to income ratio be too high?

Are they REALLY disciplined in how they spend their money verses someone who is in debt? Is this just B.S. as to a reason of why they are rich and some people are not. I would say Income has a lot to do with it, and spending habits have very little to do with it. I mean they still have what it is that they want to buy when they want to buy it. Can you explain that then if it's all about good spending habits?

Basically, I am wondering the best way to pay off credit card debt. If I borrowed against some property that I have a clear title to would I be doing myself a favor by going to the bank for a loan or should I just pay the credit card companies more per month to bring down the debt? I am currently paying 4.99% on one card and 2.99% on another card.

Hi all,

Just wondering what the limitations are on eBay as far as selling and "making a second income" goes. I would like to do this..."under the table"...and not have to worry about reporting my sales to the tax man, etc.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Can you tell me if this is a scam please? It is from a man who was raised in africa and he is decribing all of his problems like how he was premature or his mother was or something and the jobs he had to find in africa. He said his father had $3,500,000 dollars that he left to this man before he died. Now the man is asking if he can use my account to transfer the money and I can get 10% of what he is offering. HELP! What do I do?

I have about a month left to move my 401K from my previous employer to somewhere else. Since I am currently unemployed, should I roll it over to Fidelity or wait until I get a new job and roll it into their 401K plan?

Also, I have a traditional IRA right now and would it be more beneficial to roll it over there?

I'm confused and thank you in advance for your advice!
