I have a wife and 2 young boys and we are buying a house in southern VA. My wife is a homemaker and I am active duty military on a restricted income.
In unsecured debt we owe about $50,000 to various credit cards and stupid consolidation loans we took out. I have taken to contacting various debt reduction agencies but am very fearful of going this route based on information I have gotten.
I am up to date on most accounts, but there are a couple where I cannot make the minimum payment so vice paying $150...we pay $20 just to make an effort.
