What Is Your “Plan B”?

What Is Your "Plan B"?

 

Many families today, as we all know, are struggling financially.  Many are just one (1) paycheck away from disaster!  Are you one of them?  Do you live paycheck to paycheck?

Have you considered what you would do if you lost your primary income source today?

Unfortunately, most families do NOT consider this scenario and are devastated with the loss of the primary income.

I recently read about four (4) different families who suddenly lost their primary income sources.  Here are a few facts regarding their journeys through their financial devastation.

Family #1

·         Family of six (6)

·         Had a six figure income

·         Husband/father was laid off

·         Family minivan was repossessed

·         Their home is dangerously close to foreclosure

·         The family is living on half of their original income

·         Receiving less than $300 per month in food stamps.

·          The husband/father has applied for more than 60 jobs to no avail.

·         The wife/mother is looking for a part time position to no avail.

Family #2

·         Family of eight (8)

·         Was renting an apartment

·         Family was evicted because the husband/father was laid off

·         Forced to move into a motel due to lack of credit and finances due to eviction.

·         Children began suffering from allergies while living in the motel.

·         Children forced to visit the family Doctor's office a couple times a week due to allergies

·         The parents decided to find somewhere better for their children to live so decided to move to a nicer hotel, which put a strain on their already dwindling savings.

·         Their truck was impounded.

·         Forced to reach out for help at a local mission.

·         The mission assisted the family with the security deposit for another apartment.

·         One year after losing their first apartment the family moved into the new one.

Family #3

·         Family of three (3)

·         Health problems hit the husband/father and he was then only able to work part time.

·         Less than one (1) year later, husband/father was laid off

·         Lost family's health insurance

·         Forced to take a look at COBRA insurance coverage

·         Decided to use COBRA insurance for the husband/father ONLY, due to health problems

·         Wife/mother and child left without any insurance

·         Wife/mother has less income due to the downturn of the real estate market

·         Wife/mother laid off

·         Wife discovers she has a serious, life-threatening, infection and that her life is at stake

·         Wife/mother needs medication and surgery

·         No health insurance means the surgery cannot happen.

·         Family leaves their home and moves to another  state to live with a family member

Family #4

·         Family of three (3)

·         Lost five (5) jobs within one year, between the husband and wife

·         More than 400 job applications placed and hardly a phone call for an interview

·         Husband joins military for job security

·         Family is now confronting a future that will require them to live thousands of miles apart

·          The family now has some financial relief, however the wife now is suffering from an anxiety disorder due to the fact that her husband if going to be deployed overseas soon.

 

Could any one of these four (4) families be you if you lost your primary income today?

What would you be forced to deal with?  Loss of home and/or possessions?  Loss of health insurance?  Loss of your health?

What "Plan B" do you have in place?

Why not begin NOW with a "Plan B"?

How to Realize YOUR American Dream ...... Home Ownership

How To Realize YOUR "American Dream" ...... Home Ownership

The "American Dream" is to own a home, right?  Whether you build a home or you buy an existing home it is considered to be one of the best investments that you can make for your family's future

When owning a home, you want it to be a place where you can relax and be yourself.  There are no "landlord" limitations put on you when it comes to any remodeling or renovating that you would like to do.  (Of course, state and local regulations do still apply.)

For some people, owning a home seems like a dream that may never be realized due to things such as a lack of down payment and/or closing costs, credit challenges, or a lack of enough income to be able to afford the monthly payment on the home that is desired.

Debt Free Without Bankruptcy

Debt Free Without Bankruptcy


It can be EXTREMELY easy to get into debt, as many millions of people have found.  Easy access to cheap credit over the last decade or so, along with a generational shift in attitudes to borrowing, has left huge numbers of people struggling to get by and keep their debt repayments on track.

Of course, the unhappy fact is, for some people, their debt problems are simply too much to handle and they feel as though no solution can be realistically found, and for these unfortunate people bankruptcy is often thought to be the only option.

STOP!  There is a way to become debt free without resorting to such drastic action, although it is not quick or easy, no matter what the abundance of advertisements may insist.  

Please allow me to give you a brief overview of what we at the Miller Housing Group have to offer you, which will assist you in becoming debt free WITHOUT filing for bankruptcy.

Our Debt Counselors employ experienced attorneys and staff to actually assist you with debt settlement negotiations. The negotiating team is comprised of experienced debt negotiation attorneys who will "go to battle" with your creditors to obtain the best possible settlement, on your behalf.

Our Debt Counselors will work hard to help you make an educated decision based on your individual need. Once we have decided together that this is the right path for you, our experienced team of debt negotiation attorneys will fight hard on your behalf to get you back on track towards financial security. We will help ensure that you are able to pay off your debts in as little time as possible by negotiating with your creditors.
