Wouldn’t it be great if you had just a little (or maybe a lot) of extra money each month? Think of what you could do with, say, $500, $1,000 or more in your bank account every 30 days.

Session III:  How to Improve Your Credit and Manage Credit Cards Well $19.95
Instant Download

Let’s face it. It’s tough to live in this society without having any credit cards. You need cards to shop on the Internet, rent a car, or book a hotel room during business trips or vacations. And even if you don’t use credit cards, chances are you have a credit file that someone is watching. That file contains information about your mortgage, your auto loans, and how you’ve paid bills in the past. Most people think their credit score is seen only by lenders, like companies who might offer you a mortgage, auto loan or credit card. But whether you realize it or not, lots of other people and institutions have access to your credit file, including insurance companies that might sell you life or auto insurance, your boss at work, and even prospective employers. More than ever, you need to protect your credit standing because it can impact every area of your financial life.

In this session you’ll learn:

  • Sneaky tricks the credit card companies play that cost you money
  • How to read your credit report and dispute errors
  • The fastest ways to boost your FICO credit score
  • Clauses in your credit card agreements to look out for or contest
  • The pitfalls of transferring balances from one credit card to another
  • The best methods of handling credit cards if you’re married or live with someone
  • The pros and cons of using cash advances, and blank checks from credit card issuers
  • How “inquiries” and new credit applications affect your credit rating
  • What to do with those department store cards
  • How to prevent identity theft from ruining your credit … and MORE!

Or perhaps you fell on hard times, and got several months behind on your debts. What should you do when you want to re-establish your good name, pay off debts, and improve your credit standing? Chances are, you’ll have to negotiate with your creditors. Negotiating with institutions you owe is more art than science. But there are some proven negotiation strategies and techniques you must know in order to save yourself hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars.

Session V:  How to Deal with Collection Agencies $19.95
Instant Download

For anyone in debt, one of the most gut-wrenching parts of the whole ordeal is dealing with collection agents. They’re often rude, obnoxious and totally uncaring. Some even break the law, harassing people at all hours of the day and night, and calling your friends, relatives and even your boss in an attempt to embarrass you into paying your debts. Thankfully, you don’t have to be at the mercy of an unfeeling debt collector. In fact, you have many rights under the law to protect you from abusive collection agencies. But you have to know what those rights are and how to assert them. Moreover, in order to reduce your debt and improve your credit rating, you must learn how to get collection agents to give you what you want – not just the other way around.

In this session you’ll learn:

  • What to say – and what not to reveal – to collection agents that call you
  • How to write a cease and desist letter that stops collection agents in their tracks
  • How the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act protects you from collection harassment
  • When your debts are no longer collectible, under your state’s statute of limitations

Session VI:   How to Reduce Mortgage and Auto Debt $19.95
Instant Download

Owning a home is part of the American Dream. But it can quickly become a nightmare if you’re not prepared for all the costs that come along with homeownership. When most people purchase a new residence, they focus mainly on whether or not they’ll be able to afford the monthly mortgage – without giving much thought to taxes, insurance, regular maintenance, repairs, utilities and other expenses. In the end, that home becomes a cash-drainer that feels less like a castle, and more like a financial prison. The same thing happens to those who buy or lease new and used cars without considering the true cost of ownership.  

In this session you’ll learn:

  • How to evaluate how much house you can truly afford – even if you’ve lost your job
  • What to do if your mortgage debt is too burdensome
  • The pros and cons of refinancing your home
  • How to avoid foreclosure when you’re behind on your mortgage
  • Why your existing banker/mortgage company may be your best friend in a cash crunch
  • The truth about financing new and used cars
  • The advantages and disadvantages to leasing a car
  • Smart ways to rid yourself of auto payments – while preserving your credit rating
  • How to refinance your vehicle loan to save money … and MORE!

Session VII:  How to Pick a Credit Counseling or Debt Management Firm $19.95
Instant Download

You can’t turn on the radio, watch television or read the paper these days without coming across an advertisement for credit counseling or debt management firms. And now that Congress has made the bankruptcy laws in the United States stricter than ever, credit counseling is mandatory for individuals who are seeking bankruptcy protection. But how can you tell which “debt help” companies are reputable and which are rip-offs? Knowing how to separate the good from the bad in the world of credit counseling can mean the difference in getting the financial help and education you so desperately need, and being taken for a ride by companies with only one goal in mind: to make a buck at your expense. The reality is that while some credit counseling agencies can throw a life line to those drowning in debt, other credit counselors actually make your life worse than it was before, plunging you deeper in debt and promising services and results that they never actually deliver.

In this session you’ll learn:

  • What the difference is between credit counseling agencies and debt management firms
  • How being in a debt management program impacts your credit and FICO score
  • How to thoroughly check out credit counseling and debt management companies
  • What fees you can reasonably expect to pay to a credit counselor – and what’s exorbitant
  • Whether or not you should get a debt consolidation loan
  • What federal authorities are doing – and failing to do – to protect consumers from abuse
  • The truth about so-called “debt elimination” and “mortgage elimination” programs
  •  Where to turn if you’ve been wronged by a credit counselor or debt management agency
  • The downside of entering a “debt settlement” program … and MORE!

Session VIII:  How to Pay off Student Loans $19.95
Instant Download

Higher education costs in the U.S. are increasing. State funding to aid college students is on the decline. And a growing number of university and college students in America are taking on loans to foot their tuition bills and other expenses. Add it all up and the results are scary: In addition to racking up massive amounts of credit card debt, college students in the U.S. are now graduating with record levels of student loans as well. Nationwide, the median student loan debt for undergraduates currently stands at close to $20,000. Those who attend graduate school wind up with an additional $32,000 in debt on average, according to Nellie Mae, the nation’s largest student loan provider. The upside to all this debt is that people with Bachelors or graduate and professional degrees stand to earn substantially greater incomes than those without degrees. In the meantime, though, millions of people like you still need help in managing those enormous student loans.  

In this session you’ll learn:

  • How student loans impact your credit
  • How to bring past-due loans out of default status in 3 months or less
  • The ins and outs of loan rehabilitation programs
  • Whether you’re eligible for a student loan cancellation – and may not even know it
  • How to seek and get a deferment on repaying student loans
  • When to request a forbearance
  • How to ease your financial burdens with a graduated repayment program
  • How to get your lender to agree to an extended repayment option
  • The pros and cons of paying loans based on an income contingent plan
  • When to consider student loan consolidation … and MORE!

So how do you avoid being over-taxed and behind on your taxes? And what can you do if you’re already weighed down by an old tax bill?
