After a series of most unfortunate events over the past 4 years, I find myself in a potential pickle.
My husband and I have already been through a bankruptcy so I don't think that that's an option. Over the past 4 years, my husband has lost 2 jobs and all of our cars have decided suddenly to need major attention all at once.
I also, very recently have found that family members have misused my trust and used 3 household accounts that I left in my name for them and now I am in collections three different ways.
We paid for, and are still trying to pay for repairs on cars with the credit cards on top of taking care of bills during my husbands times of unemployment.
Needless to say, the credit cards are quite high but not to the monumental stage. I also felt that I had to take a loan with a very high interest rate.
I'm not asking for a handout by any means. I just don't know how to fix all this.
I NEED SOME HELP; VERY SOON.
Does anyone have any resources that can be passed on to me?
