Hi... I love researching questions even the absurd ones! I vary between being serious in my answers to sometimes being silly. I try to learn at least one new thing a day. My picture is of a large jellyfish taken at the Montery Bay Aquarium in California. I work as an Air Traffic Controller with the FAA and in my spare time I am a warm-glass (kiln work) artist. I have one husband, 3 step kids and 3 dogs.

2 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoadvice forMortgage restructuring- our friend wanted to do this with her high mortgage and low home value?
as well as $$ struggles.... she was advised that since she had not been late with payments she didn't qualify ( in Sept 08). So, she stopped making payment and went to mortgage restructuring classes ... she just found out that her house has been foreclosed on... she was 9 days late from the Presidents new bill....She was not giving any notice that she was being foreclosed on, she was under the understanding that all foreclosures 'were on hold'. I don't know all the details, but she wants to stay ....a Realtor now wants to know when shes moving out so they can sell the house....is there any recourse she may have??? Any useful suggestions would be appreciated....thanks
4 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoA close family friend has just been diagnosed with cancer and given 1 to 6 months to live. ?
He lives across the country and it is unlikely I will be able to visit.
I talked with him briefly on the phone , but wasn't really sure how to talk with him. If you have any suggestion for how to have a conversation with someone just given such news, I'd appreciate it.
It seems he doesn't really want to talk about it ( he asked me about what's going on with me and my family)...and I don't know him well enough to be totally direct.....any advice appreciated..Thanks

6 AnswersCleaning & Laundry1 decade ago$ Loan Question? 401 K?
I have 2 outstanding loans. They are both about 15,000 each.
One is at a rate of 7.25% and the other is at 4.65%.
I am going to take out a loan against my 401K for $6000.00 at a rate of 3.65%... What I am wondering is : Should I increase my new loan amount to cover the others loans and pay them off...then I would have one payment and it would be at a lower interest rate.
I realize that the compound interest from my accumulated 401K would be reduced...but seeing as how the market is going, it seems like a good idea.
Any intelligent financial advice is greatly appreciated... :)
