Hi,

I currently work at Citifinancial and am a manager there. I can give you an idea that would help you out w/them which would in turn get them off your back but more importantly get you payment lowered and also your intrest rate dropped alot. Let me know how much you owe, unsec/secured,payment,term and current rate.

Good Luck,

You’re blog has been inspiring. I stop by IamFacingForeclosure.com every once in a while, and that kid is a train wreck. You however have shown incredible maturity, strength and discipline. I am rooting for you, and I wish you the best of luck. If there is anything I can do for you please let me know.

I am impressed! Your business revenue really increased from 2k to 7k in 3 months? That is fantastic. One suggestion, please don’t say “sell crap”. While “crap” may have some values to say, a farmer, it probably has negative values to most people. Imagine if one of your clients/buyers heard you “sell crap”, they may not buy from you again.

Stay on course. I think the dealing with creditors have enhanced your negotiating skill. A skill that many people do not possess. I personally am awful at negotiation. Good luck.

Debt Kid,

Seriously, get a paypal account up. I am certain that regular visitors and your entire cheering section over at ExurbanNation would gladly help you with groceries. I know I would, if I could.

Hi:

Glad to read you are thinking of other options than living out of the office…..

Glad to read your sales are increasing. Keep it up. Make a goal for your self – $10K by July; $15K by December…. and keep going.

umm…it’s always darker before the dawn?

It’s seems to me that you are doing really well. It must be wearing on you though – you seem quite stressed. But it will get better! You are taking positive actions that will get results.

hey keep your head up man, it’s kind of sad that casey of facingforclosure fame (or should i say infamy) is getting more attention for being a jackass while you’re definitely on the right track back to salvation.

“Keep working out.” Well, you are way ahead of me on that front!

“I play super nice.” Good strategy. The creditors probably have a protocol they are supposed to follow, but personally, if I think someone is rude or unappreciative, I tend not to cut them any breaks.

“I almost broke down in front of one of my good friends.” Don’t bottle it up–I think breaking down is understandable with what you’re going through. That said, unlike PMSPMS, the last time I did that, I got conned, so try not to be completely vulnerable with someone who is potentially more than just a friend if you can help it.

First! (to admitting to breaking down anyways!). Hey listen – women like a little vulnerability in a man… it’s ok to show your human side. Last time I did that I got lucky if you know what I mean As always peace and good luck…
