Whats the best way to pay of my debt?

Ju Ju B asked:


Hey everyone
I owe 9 grand to my bank.
I in cured this debt primarily because of 2 reasons, 1. I didn’t have a job for 3 months so I was using that to pay bills/food etc etc 2. I have a bad vehicle which has cost me over $6500 to fix in one year alone!!
Right now I make about $1400 a month. My rent is $500(including utilities), I have a cell phone which is $50, my car insurance is $50, I spend about $60 a week on groceries.I spend about $75 on gas for work a week. I really want to pay of this debt, but I don’t want to file for bankruptcy (i’m only 24) and I don’t want a debt consolidator (I heard they are shady) I just want lower payments cause I can’t afford it(right now its $240 a month). any advice?

I tired talking to the bank and they say they can’t go lower, I don’t understand I mean you would think the bank would help me. I’m late this month for my payment and the interest (20%) is killing me
Judy–I’m looking for a job as we speak
what do you think of debt consilodation?
I have tried looking for a second job, nobody is hiring because the ecomony ***** donkey!!! I don’t wanna debt-cosolidate, pray that I can get a second job

    The bank most likely doesnt want to make other arrangements with you currently spend you currently spend you dont buy extras only buy what is needed you pay the 240 month first thing 60 on groceries way to make other arrangements with you dont have good credit score lower than 720 because of the.
    My bank to make other arrangements with another bank that even my bank most likely doesnt want to see what is needed.
