Is there a way to get $1000 fast cash loans within an hour? I had a family emergency come up Friday, as a result I need $1000 immediately! I called my bank and other loan places, but my credit score isn't good enough. I made mistakes when I was young with a credit card. I've called other family members also, money is tight for everyone.I have a checking account, but no checks. I've looked at several fast cash loans in my town as well as online, but they all say I cannot recieve money into my account until Monday or Tuesday. I'm able to pay back in full by Tues., but I desperately need it today. Is there any place to recieve that money in my account immediately and with bad credit?

Living costs are so high that even 2 jobs are not enough to pay my bills - how can I get emergency $$ fast? I am a single mom in California and I work about 55 hours a week, but when I am behind in $$ as far as I am (1 month), it's nearly impossible to catch up. I have borrowed from family and payday loans (bad), and I'm at the end of my rope. Has anyone else found any good sources of quick cash (earned)? I have applied for goverment assistance, but do not qualify as I am part of the "working poor" in this country who cannot get a break. Anyway, thanks for reading.

Need to earn money fast, what can I do? this is an emergency? I have a car loan, I recently moved out of state and I spoke with a guy at the dealership that I would pay double payments march 3rd. The guy was terminated from his job, and he never relayed the message to the manager. They have now sent out an arrest warrant unless I pay 200 dollars by the end of the week. I don't get paid by the. Money is just very tight. I've asked family if I could borrow and pay them back, and they can't loan any right now. I can't get a cash advance loan, because my drivers license is still from the other state. My credit isn't good enough to get a loan from anywhere. What can I do? I really need this money to make my car payment. Are there any organizations that help with car payments? I just really need some help, thank you. They said they can arrest because the car was taken out of state from the move. I have a job. I just really need some help.. No friends to loan it, they don't have it either. I work for a work at home company, so they wont give me an advance on pay.

What do you suggest? My husband and I are in a financial bind. We need at least $1000 very soon to pay bills. Both of us work, but we had an emergency recently that basically took everything we had. Bills are adding up fast and we just don't have the money to pay them. We are a young couple and don't have any credit yet, and we keep getting denied for loans. My friend told me about a cash advance or payday loan. Do you think that it's a good idea and how does it work.

My wife has a problem with money management, on the verge of divorce? We got married on April 5th 2008 and have been struggling financially since July. First it was us together spending money using credit cards. Those quickly got maxed out. I had provided my wife with a Chevron credit card which she maxed out within a two week time frame and nothing to show for it. I then made a decision to borrow money from banks to get ahead on some of the bills and pay off the credit cards. Which I should have chosen to pay off Bank loans instead. Because the credit cards where maxed out again in shorter time and over the limit worse than before. My wife began to borrow from online payday companies and in most cases using my social security number. Which results in the worse scenarios possible. My credit score was exceptional now we are not able to pay any of the loans credit cards or payday loans. My credit score is dropping faster then Equifax can compute. We were able to address short term bills, but once all the bills were somewhat caught up. We began getting bank overdrafts, we are now on a weekly basis overdrawing the account due to her writing check for things we so called need. For every over draft no matter how small we are charged 25$ and mostly from checks that she wrote knowing that we dont have the money in the bank. Which can add at an alarming rate when the bounced checks are reprocessed again after they failed the first time. So any one check can be a 50$ charge not including the fees by the receipent of the check. We have argued countless times about this to the point of her making physical contact with me and me threating to end our relationship. Yet 2 weeks later it reoccurs again to the point that I dont say anything because I dont want to deal with the arguing. She has admitted to me that she has a problem with spending money. We are to the point to where we are struggling just to pay for bare neccessities. Utilities, Gas transport. Bank Loan, Car Loan, Insurance, Child care, Rent, We dont make enough to keep these bills up. I am to the point to where it would be better for us to end the relationship move back to our parents and get our lives back in order. She is completely torn and does not want this to happen. I would like for us to be happy and live comfortably. But i dont know what the next step is when she has this problem thats going to continue to keep us from progressing in this financial struggle. What should i do force the relationship to end or enforce some type of restrictions? As for a seperate checking account or living on cash alone great options. We both work she gets a check. My job requires direct deposit so i have to have an account. We have a joint account currently and had to close one account previously due to the payday loan companies taking out twice as much than is owed. She has also opened up another account, in her own name at another bank. She has been going to the payday loan websites again and almost certain she is using my social security number to get the payday loans deposited. That arent gonna be paid back. She promises she has not done this yet but is there anyway i can prevent my information from being used without causing her to be charged with identity theft? These are our bills a month 350 child support for my other children 340 child care for her child 320 gas transport to our jobs 240 or more for food and house items 250 rent 262 carloan 167 bank loan 50 heating gas bill 67 Cable TV/internet 153 Bank loan for paid billz 125 cellphone for us to keep in contact for emergencies 137 insurance 125 light bills I make 670$ every two weeks she makes 580 every two weeks I had suggested she pay the 340 child care for her child, 320 gas transport to our jobs, 240 or more for food and house items - But i am stuck with the rest and its just not possible on our income.

Short term - cash advance loans? Can anyone recommend a reputable (albeit probably costly) source for a short term loan? I'm looking to borrow $1000 - $2000 and only have a savings account - not a checking. I have a good employment history and a good job now - just need cash fast for an emergency.

Paying Student Loans vs. Larger Emergency Fund? Because of my master degree, I am on the hook for about $50k in student loans at < 6.5% fixed interest. As a single man with no family, I rent an apartment and I live on a cash budget and pay more than the minimums on the student loans. I own a paid for vehicle. I have no credit card debt. Unfortunately, my emergency fund would only cover about one months worth of living expenses if something went wrong. Some people advocate keeping the emergency fund small until all debt is paid off since the return on investment for paying off the debt is immediately realized. Such people would say that once the debt is paid off, one should then build 6 months of living expenses into a savings account for emergencies. I am not yet investing or considering purchasing a home because of the debt load I already have and need to work down. Being a bit of a geek, I find it easy to set and stick to a budget. Should I focus now on paying down the student loan debt faster or putting aside more money in case work falls through?

Is "ALL WELL" with the banking system? I think not? Your thoughts? 1. Paulson appears on Face The Nation and says "Our banking system is a safe and a sound one." If the banking system was safe and sound, everyone would know it (or at least think it). There would be no need to say it. 2. Paulson says the list of troubled banks "is a very manageable situation". The reality is there are 90 banks on the list of problem banks. Indymac was not one of them until a month before it collapsed. How many other banks will magically appear on the list a month before they collapse? 3. In a Northern Rock moment, depositors at Indymac pull out their cash. Police had to be called in to ensure order. 4. Washington Mutual (WM), another troubled bank, refused to honor Indymac cashier's checks. The irony is it makes no sense for customers to pull insured deposits out of Indymac after it went into receivership. The second irony is the last place one would want to put those funds would be Washington Mutual. Eventually Washington Mutual decided it would take those checks but with an 8 week hold. Will Washington Mutual even be around 8 weeks from now? 5. Paulson asked for "Congressional authority to buy unlimited stakes in and lend to Fannie Mae (FNM) and Freddie Mac (FRE)" just days after he said "Financial Institutions Must Be Allowed To Fail". Obviously Paulson is reporting from the 5th dimension. In some alternate universe, his statements just might make sense. 6. Former Fed Governor William Poole says "Fannie Mae, Freddie Losses Makes Them Insolvent". 7. Paulson says Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are "essential" because they represent the only "functioning" part of the home loan market. The firms own or guarantee about half of the $12 trillion in U.S. mortgages. Is it possible to have a sound banking system when the only "functioning" part of the mortgage market is insolvent? 8. Bernanke testified before Congress on monetary policy but did not comment on either money supply or interest rates. The word "money" did not appear at all in his testimony. The only time "interest rate" appeared in his testimony was in relation to consumer credit card rates. How can you have any reasonable economic policy when the Fed chairman is scared half to death to discuss interest rates and money supply? 9. The SEC issued a protective order to protect those most responsible for naked short selling. As long as the investment banks and brokers were making money engaging in naked shorting of stocks, there was no problem. However, when the bears began using the tactic against the big financials, it became time to selectively enforce the existing regulation. 10. The Fed takes emergency actions twice during options expirations week in regards to the discount window and rate cuts. 11. The SEC takes emergency action during options expirations week regarding short sales. 12. The Fed has implemented an alphabet soup of pawn shop lending facilities whereby the Fed accepts garbage as collateral in exchange for treasuries. Those new Fed lending facilities are called the Term Auction Facility (TAF), the Term Security Lending Facility (TSLF), and the Primary Dealer Credit Facility (PDCF). 13. Citigroup (C), Lehman (LEH), Morgan Stanley(MS), Goldman Sachs (GS) and Merrill Lynch (MER) all have a huge percentage of level 3 assets. Level 3 assets are commonly known as "marked to fantasy" assets. In other words, the value of those assets is significantly if not ridiculously overvalued in comparison to what those assets would fetch on the open market. It is debatable if any of the above firms survive in their present form. Some may not survive in any form. 14. Bernanke openly solicits private equity firms to invest in banks. Is this even close to a remotely normal action for Fed chairman to take? 15. Bear Stearns was taken over by JPMorgan (JPM) days after insuring investors it had plenty of capital. Fears are high that Lehman will suffer the same fate. Worse yet, the Fed had to guarantee the shotgun marriage between Bear Stearns and JP Morgan by providing as much as $30 billion in capital. JPMorgan is responsible for only the first 1/2 billion. Taxpayers are on the hook for all the rest. Was this a legal action for the Fed to take? Does the Fed care? 16. Citigroup needed a cash injection from Abu Dhabi and a second one elsewhere. Then after announcing it would not need more capital is raising still more. The latest news is Citigroup will sell $500 billion in assets. To who? At what price? 17. Merrill Lynch raised $6.6 billion in capital from Kuwait Mizuho, announced it did not need to raise more capital, then raised more capital a few week later. 18. Morgan Stanley sold a 9.9% equity stake to China International Corp. CEO John Mack compensated by not taking his bonus. How generous. Morgan Stanley fell from $72 to $37. Did CEO John Mack deserve a paycheck at all? 19. Bank of America (BAC) agreed to take over Countywide Financial (CFC) and twice announced Countrywide will add profits to B of A. Inquiring minds were asking "How the hell can Countrywide add to Bank of America earnings?" Here's how. Bank of America just announced it will not guarantee $38.1 billion in Countrywide debt. Questions over "Fraudulent Conveyance" are now surfacing. 20. Washington Mutual agreed to a death spiral cash infusion of $7 billion accepting an offer at $8.75 when the stock was over $13 at the time. Washington Mutual has since fallen in waterfall fashion from $40 and is now trading near $5.00 after a huge rally. 21. Shares of Ambac (ABK) fell from $90 to $2.50. Shares of MBIA (MBI) fell from $70 to $5. Sadly, the top three rating agencies kept their rating on the pair at AAA nearly all the way down. No one can believe anything the government sponsored rating agencies say. 22. In a panic set of moves, the Fed slashed interest rates from 5.25% to 2%. This was the fastest, steepest drop on record. Ironically, the Fed chairman spoke of inflation concerns the entire drop down. Bernanke clearly cannot tell the truth. He does not have to. Actions speak louder than words. 23. FDIC Chairman Sheila Bair said the FDIC is looking for ways to shore up its depleted deposit fund, including charging higher premiums on riskier brokered deposits. 24. There is roughly $6.84 Trillion in bank deposits. $2.60 Trillion of that is uninsured. There is only $53 billion in FDIC insurance to cover $6.84 Trillion in bank deposits. Indymac will eat up roughly $8 billion of that. 25. Of the $6.84 Trillion in bank deposits, the total cash on hand at banks is a mere $273.7 Billion. Where is the rest of the loot? The answer is in off balance sheet SIVs, imploding commercial real estate deals, Alt-A liar loans, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac bonds, toggle bonds where debt is amazingly paid back with more debt, and all sorts of other silly (and arguably fraudulent) financial wizardry schemes that have bank and brokerage firms leveraged at 30-1 or more. Those loans cannot be paid back. What cannot be paid back will be defaulted on. If you did not know it before, you do now. The entire US banking system is insolvent. I have my garden, well stocked pantry sheld, outdoor stove, fire wood and propone burners. This will get worse...much much worse........good luck to all!!....be prepared

Is it possible to spend your way out of a recession, as obama said? New Obama plans: 'spend our way out' of downturn By PHILIP ELLIOTT, Associated Press Writer Philip Elliott, Associated Press Writer 2 mins ago WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama outlined new multibillion-dollar stimulus and jobs proposals Tuesday, saying the nation must continue to "spend our way out of this recession" until more Americans are back at work. Without giving a price tag, Obama proposed a package of new spending for highway, bridge and other infrastructure projects, deeper tax breaks for small businesses and tax incentives to encourage people to make their homes more energy efficient. "We avoided the depression many feared," Obama said in a speech at the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank. But, he added, "Our work is far from done." For the third time in a week, Obama sought to focus on job creation, noting that the unemployment rate was still at 10 percent in November, though down slightly from its 10.2 percent peak. He said "a staggering" 7 million Americans have lost jobs since the recession began two years ago. While his proposal did not include the kind of direct federal public works jobs that were created in the 1930s, he said government could set the stage for more job creation by private businesses. A major part of his package is new incentives for small businesses, which account for two-thirds of the nation's work force. He proposed a new tax cut for small businesses that hire in 2010 and an elimination for one year of the capital gains tax on profits from small-business investments. Obama also proposed an elimination of fees on loans to small businesses, coupled with federal guarantees of those loans through the end of next year. He called for more government spending on infrastructure projects such as roads, bridges and water projects and for new tax breaks for consumers who invest in energy-efficient retrofits in their homes. This could be what some administration officials have called a "Cash for Caulkers" program modeled on the now-expired Cash for Clunkers program of tax rebates for people who turned in old cars for more fuel-efficient models. The administration also is eyeing ways to get money still not spent in the $787 billion stimulus bill passed last winter into projects more quickly. Obama did not characterize his new proposals as another stimulus program like that mammoth measure, but Republican critics have called it just that and have said it will increase a federal deficit that is already at a record level. Obama included sharp criticism for Republicans in his speech, accusing them of opposing economic stimulus efforts and his health care overhaul while supporting tax cuts and spending that have ballooned the deficit. He said that soon after taking office, he and congressional Democrats took "a series of difficult steps" to try to stabilize the financial system and pull the economy out of a deep recession. "And we were forced to take those steps largely without the help of an opposition party which, unfortunately, after having presided over the decision-making that led to the crisis, decided to hand it to others to solve." Obama did not say how much his proposals would cost, although congressional Democrats are eyeing a $70 billion package to help create jobs and to provide aid to hard-pressed state and local governments. Administration aides suggested that the part of the package dealing with roads, bridges and other infrastructure could total about $50 billion. While acknowledging increasing concerns in Congress and among the public over the nation's growing debt, Obama said critics present a "false choice" between paying down deficits and investing in job creation and economic growth. To pay for the new programs, the administration is citing the Treasury Department's report on Monday that it expects to get back $200 billion in taxpayer-approved bank bailout funds faster than expected. Obama suggested this windfall would both help the government spend money on job creation while also paying down the nation's debt, which now totals $12 trillion. Obama called the bank bailout, under the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), "galling." "There has rarely been a less loved — or more necessary — emergency program," Obama said. The program is expected to go out of business at the end of this year unless extended by Congress. Since the program is costing taxpayers at least $200 billion less than expected, Obama said, "This gives us a chance to pay down the deficit faster than we thought possible and to shift funds that would have gone to help the banks on Wall Street to help create jobs on Main Street." But Republicans continued to insist that the leftover and repaid TARP money must be used exclusively for deficit reduction and not for a new jobs program. "The president's announcement is further proof that TARP has morphed from an emergency injection of liquidity to thaw frozen credit markets i

Sub prime mortgage options in Canada? I've had to use my downpayment money in an emergency, but need to move out of my rental because landlord has sold. My credit scores indicate that I will be just short of "A" lending for a year. So I am wondering what "B" or sub-prime options I would qualify for with good full time employment last 10 years; only one auto loan and no late payments on credit cards or the loan over 3 years. Are any of these programs in the equation? 107% financing mortgages, cash back mortgages, no doc mortgages, self employed mortgages, bad credit mortgages, stated income mortgages. Help, the deadline to move is fast approaching!
