We're getting a divorce, neither of us can afford the mortgage on our house on our own, but it's not selling. What do we do???
I we lower the price any more we'll end up owing money. If we foreclose, then we'll have bad credit. WHAT CAN WE DO??? We both just want a clean break.

I have been through divorce, legal expenses with a delinquent child and medical expenses with another child. I have struggled with bills but managed to keep my family fed & housed. Now I am divorced, my delinquent child has finally grown up & my medically challenged child has become an adult & has married and now I would like to get a home of my own. Is it at all possible? Or am I destined to be a renter forever?

People say hard work but I've been working alot lately 14 hrs a day and honestly sometimes I feel like thats the biggest lie on the planet. So how does someone realistically become rich. I know being rich does not make you happy. Being rich free's you of any type of burden to live your life to the fullest. If you want to travel you can travel, if you want to create a business, you need money to do so. It's not easy when you are broke, yet you are working your best on measly paychecks and can't even go back to school because you have to pay off school loans already, not to mention bills light gas, phone food and everything else by yourself, I am in my early 20's and honestly i am just sick of th1s sh1t as far as jobs go. i want real answers thanks

I have bad credit due to a job loss but I have been working full time for quite a while now. I just have not been able to get back on my feet. When I was falling behind on my bills I started going to payday loans. Now I can't get out of the payday loans, I've applied for loans that are for people with bad credit, but my income is too low. I only make $1,300 a month so they won't approve me. I need to find one who will approve people with low income AND bad credit. I am an honest person, I don't intentionally fail to pay my debts, I just need a second chance to get my feet back on the ground. I can't get there though without help and extra money. Please let me know what I can do. It would be greatly appreciated.

I have several of both types of bonds. I am trying to save my home from foreclosure. Cashing these in would help. My question pertains to the fact these were purchased by my father for my children and are in my minor children's names. Some of them name me or my spouse as POD, some name my father. Am I able to cash these? And if so.... I found in a previous question asked on Yahoo! a woman stated the bonds will be reported as cashed to the person who purchased them, is that correct? I intend to purchase replacement bonds in the next year, so please don't criticize me about stealing from my children. As I see it, I can save the roof over their heads now and have to pay for college later, or have their college paid for but be living only God knows where. Any knowledge by professionals who deal with this on a daily basis, or if you are 100% sure of your knowledge. Please list your source. Thank you for your time and help!
