The best thing you can do right now is immediately contact your current creditors and explain the situation to them. They want their money, yes, but it's a losing situation for everyone if they have to reposess anything or foreclose on your property. Explain what is going on and they will work with you. Don't bury your head in the sand and hope it gets better, you MUST take action. Call them. Ask for their help. Take notes on who you talk with, what time, and what your solution was. You may need to remind them of what they agreed to and who made what agreement and when.

Good luck to you and I hope your situation improves.

It sounds like you were already having financial issues before your husband lost his job, if your mortgage payment was already a month late.

From what I understand, you need to be more than one month behind to be foreclosed on, or to have vehicles repossessed.

My advice is the same for everyone---there are jobs available, just not high-paying ones. If your husband works the day shift, then you need to find a job in the evenings or weekends. Sell what you can. Take to your creditors.

Sometimes it gets tough, and we can't pay 4000 in bills a month if we are only making 1500 month so someone don't get paid,

Talk with the lenders as mentioned, let them know and keep looking for a better job. And he can try and get a second part time job if needed.

And in the end you may look at bankruptcy, maybe a chapter 13 and try to work out a payment plan. Now if you have too many cars and owe too much on them, sometimes it is hard to work it out. But all you can do is your best.

Your going to need to file bankruptcy if your husband doesn't find a better job, Sorry to be so blunt, but you can't continue to live like you used to. I think half of America is going though what your doing. The good thing is in Michigan, I know that if you make less then 80k a year you can still file chapter 7 and don't have to pay anything back, that could take care of the credit cards, personal loans, and brand new cars. I would keep the house you need a place for you and your kids. You definitely don't need a new car, so include it in your bankruptcy and buy a beater. If you know your husband can get another good paying job like he had, maybe refinancing is a way to go, let your house fall behind another payment and pay everything else and then refinance that should buy you a month or two, yeah you'll get collection calls, but 1st party mortgage companies don't start foreclosing until 90 days.(still takes about 6 months to compete at least though Washington Mutual) If you want some more help contact me.

Question: I live in Michigan. I make less than 80,000 a year. I want to file bankruptcy. But the medium state income is 49,000 for a family of 2. So how did you come up with 80,000? Sure hope you're right.
