As you can see, I just paid all of my collection debts, and my payments on my furniture and appliances are all made on time with the exception of a 30 day late payment back in feb,2007

Where do I stand purchasing a vehicle? It doesn’t have to be new, just not old.
I’m trying to stay under 12,000.

I’ve also heard it’s easier to finance a brand new car rather than used? True?

PLEASE HELP!!!
By the way, this isn’t just Transunion, it’s all 3 credit reporting agencies.
Also, I’m 20, and I make 1,300 per month full time and I still live at home.

debt consolidation
soonerfan0808 asked:


I just posted about co-signing for my husband who has horrible credit(25,000).. but got to thinking. We pay all of our bills on time NOW and he doesn’t miss payments. The debt he has is old debt(charge offs). I just printed off a report for him on www.freecreditreport.com so I can figure it all out. Anyways, I want to find debt counseling or a debt consolidation agency that can help him clear it up. What site can you recommend?
Thanks!
