We live in a small condo that we paid a lot for. We will never get as much for it as we owe for our loan, but we have out grown it. We are not in a foreclosure situation because we are making the payments on time without a problem. If we sell our home for less than it is worth, can we add the balance of our mortgage onto the mortgage of a new home, or will we owe the bank the balance right then and there?

I want to cancel some of the store credit card, but I don’t know how that effects my credit rating. I think closing credit cards in general lowers credit scores, but what about those store cards?

How can sending money possibly help with global warming?! Shouldn’t they be commercials for recycling or not driving a hummer or something that would really help? Aren’t we just paying for more useless commercials? How would we stop global warming by sending them money? They don’t elaborate on how we could help.

I heard about this company that will take over your school loans from them but I don’t know the name of the company.
