    WiseOne's Comments, I tell ya, this is getting horrible now. I think we are in for a very long, hard haul! Oh, and the Bush's just went out and bought almost $500,000 worth of China plates and crap. So, the country is collapsing and they actually think it is a prudent time to show off their purchase of $500,000 worth of junk? WTF???

    Might even be out of touch with
    reality.
    Ya reckon.

    I mean, if one can afford a half-million bucks just for something
    to EAT off of --- perhaps they might consider helping others
    to EAT, at all? :biggrin_2552:

    Continue with the mortgage payments, credit cards probably go on hold.. The foreclosure process effects everybody :(

    If you have to choose between a mortgage payment or credit card payment, you obviously have too much of both.

    Or may have experienced a major change in the income due to a loss of a job or reduced miles in the industry.
