Debt Help
If you are being harassed by banks over foreclosure or credit card debt it is incredibly difficult if you are on your own.
There are organizations out there that can help. One that I have had personal experience with is the nonprofit Green Path debt Solutions.
This national non-profit organization provides Debt Counseling, Debt Management, and Financial Education, and a free meeting to look at personal finance and debt issues.
A couple years ago my parents owned several houses in Detroit with mortgages that were underwater and then Chase Bank informed them that the interest rate on their credit card debt was about to be raised. Green Path helped them to create a plan and to negotiate. In some cases all it took was mentioning the name of Green Path to be transferred to a different department of the Bank where an actual solution was reached after months of being harassed and transferred between various departments.
For those of you with overwhelming student loan debt, check out this link to American Student Assistance
If you know of other organizations that could help those in need let us know.
