There are no disadvantages. Online trading offers a great way to buy a few shares cheap. Our investment club has been using Waterhouse and have made 14 odd-lot trades. All have been executed quick and no noticeable "bump" as they're almost always limit orders. Our little account has made us very happy with an IRR of over 84% in 1998.

This sounds shocking at first, but you'll suffer the same or worse fate if you have multiple delinquencies, or CCCS. (Consumer Credit Counseling Service..see your phone book). You'll find it easy to buy/lease cars etc after a Chapter 7/13 filing, and after 2 years a mortgage is fairly easy, providing you "keep your nose clean", (re-establish credt and NEVER pay late!) A few years down the road you'll be miles ahead. If you want to tough it out, I admire you for it. You have only two options. More income or less outgo. Get hub to work immediately. If he's healthy there's $10 hr jobs everywhere. I know of a residential window washer making 80k. on $30 start-up costs. If this is not an option due to parenting etc. start slashing. Sell the car if it's worth more than 2k and get yourself a nice reliable 85 Camry like mine. (It refuses to breakdown and cost nothing to drive. I'll keep it forever.) Hopefull some ideas you find here will help you in some way. Lots of folks here are pulling for you and believe you'll be on a better track before you know it. Good to see you using a free email service. Use a PC somewhere and find a free internet connection. One of several is at http://www.netzero.com/ Then search for more money saing and income ideas. You go girl! ================================================ Randy Barnes, Helping Hand Technologies Get FREE Windows 98 web-based training at.. http://www.rbarnes.com ================================================ - -
