I'm looking at the third listing I linked.  Interesting.  $50k worth of debt, high utilization.  Says he only pays $625 a month on his credit cards which seems off to me.  This loan will only cut $15k off his total debt load and is a higher payment than what he shows for his other CCs.  Plus he has a pic of himself and a toddler (presumably his) but only spends $150 a month on food.

As it stands now, using his budget he provided he only has $87 left per month and I KNOW he doesn't spend that little on food. 

But he's an Accountant/CPA so he probably knows better than me.  :)-

ETA: I just clicked on his username to see if he's had other listings.  I'm now getting the member page not available message.  Anyone else?   :o

Listing withdrawn; user terminated.

Don't the folks in charge of selecting featured listings do a great job?

Classic comment from Urbi to a poster who said they were leaving:

"Once again, we note that your threats are hollow and you come across like a sad, lonely blowhard.

I doubt anyone here gives a shit about you.  We pretty much all know that you are a vile and unethical parasite of a human being with an abnormal craving for attention."

Autism Clothing Line



I think this one could be good, at least the business idea.  I can not comprehend having three kids with autism.  Good for her/him for figuring out how to make these kids lives easier.
