How To Manage Debt Repayment & Bankruptcy

Data relased by American Bankers Association paints a gloomy picture of personal and home loan delinquencies during the fourth quarter of 2008. With loss of 3 million jobs in 2008, with two million of them occurring in the fourth quarter, delinquencies are unlikely to see any improvement.

So what does the average Joe do about the debt and repayment or even bankruptcy problems, and how he can protect himself and even profit from the grim situation.

1. If you are in the delinquets list you must immediately seek credit counseling
through a reputed, certified and trained counsellor. A credit Counsellor can advice you on managing your debt and money matters by developing a budget.

2. Research the background of the credit counsellors well as there have been a rising trend of shady operators promising to erase your bad credit reports for a fee and doing the vanishing trick. There is no way information can be removed
from your credit report.

3. Do not believe in promises of a miracle and debt free life. Your debt and delinquency can only be managed and pressure eased with a professional restructuring to suit your needs. Debt cannot be wished away or wiped out without settling it.

4. If you feel you cannot settle your debts and bankrutcy is the only option, you can discuss with your creditors who may be willing to settle for a smaller cash payment or stretch the repayment over a longer period.

5. You may have other issues such as debt collectors knocking at your door and you may face some harrassment. There may be instances of the debt collectors breaking the law. Check with or write to the Federal Trade Commossion if you are in US. Most countries have Fair Debt Collection Practices Act in place and you can refer to them for any violation of the debt collection codes subscribed to by the banks.

Debt and delinquencies are a common problem in tough times.  Any one can find himself in a messy situation due to bad financial planning.  However we have to confront the issues and get a grip.  The magnitude of the problem can be reduced consdierably.  What one has to remember is not to panick and resort to dubiuous remedies in such situations. Take the lawful course of actions and you will be safe and the problem of debt can be surmounted.

How To Save Your Marriage And Build A great Relationship

It must be my love and passion (and lots of 'sensitivity') for 'relationship'. I always enjoy seeing how people deal with 'relationship' – any kind of relationship.

Very often I will learn some lessons and wisdom from them.

Just last month I was at my niece's church wedding.

As usual, I became uneasy when the pastor was giving his 'speech'. I just didn't want to hear any message on why we should not be taking the other half for granted.

I have heard too many times on this.

But his message hit me hard this time.

The pastor didn't use that 'for granted' statement throughout his speech. Instead...

"Don't be careless!" was the one.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

I was careless towards my wife's feeling just...

- when we were leaving for the church,

- when I was driving,

- when I was parking my car,

- when we were crossing the road,

- when my youngest daughter making so much requests,

- when... oh no, I am too ashamed to go on.


Were you careless?


There was once my wife and I were finishing a drama series on TV. This is something we enjoy doing together.

The husband in the story was dying of brain tumor. He could not see.

He could not hear. Well, you know, this is too common in drama. But what he said to his wife 'woke me up' (Did it wake my wife up? I was not sure)...

"Darling, I thought it was enough just to listen to your voice when you were talking. Now I really miss looking at you. I was so careless.

I should be looking at you more often."

Were you careless?

I was.

Are you careless?

I am.

But I am going to be more careful from now on.
