I have been pretty good with money for most of my life, but 2 things have just come up that I do not know what to do with and they are big chunks of money.
1) $12,000 from the IRS. This was from a job I took that did not have taxes taken out, I was told I had 3 years to claim it, and now the IRS wants it.
2) $5000 from a credit card I thought I had paid off. I was offered a settlement, or I thought in college, pay $1000 of a $2700 bill and all was forgiven. They have no record of that and have been charging me late fees ever since with no contact so now they say I owe them almost $5000.
