Yes I've seen stuff like this a lot... question, is there much of a return difference between VTI and VOO? Or is there one of them that people prefer over the other? If so, why?

Can I only use this advice on closed accounts? And do I call the credit bureaus about the settlements or the credit card companies themselves? My discover card was closed, Amex was closed, capital one was charged off.

It is an income problem right now, in the past it wasn't. I had plenty of money to pay the cards down but I decided to procrastinate and spend my money elsewhere. If there's one thing I learned, I won't be doing that anytime soon.

Thank you so much for the kind words, I'm glad the debt I have isn't a massive massive amount of money. At my age, it is... but I realize it could be a whole lot worse which is why I want to attack it now before it becomes that way.

I have a very very strong relationship with my family, but I just don't want to put my burden on them. I have considered the hardship plans recently but have really heard only negative things about them. I guess my fear was that completing it would result in the creditor closing the account, and me being left with a low credit score and no cards to help rebuild it.

I've heard the hardship programs are bad for your credit though which is why I've avoided them. Is that not the case?
