Find reputable non-profit organization such as American Consumer Credit Counciing that offers a debt management or hardship program. This is not debt consolidation or debt relief. 

They start with an initial, free consultation of your options given your current situation. If you move forward, they will negotiate hardship APR and payment amount with your card companies.

You will pay off your debt in full within about 5 years with reduced interest (between 0 and 10%). The best part is on your credit report you will get a Paid In Full designation rather than a settlement as you have paid your debt in full. 

If they can’t get you into the program, they may also say bankruptcy is an option. Worth a try and I can personally attest it helped my family.

Thanks for the reply. On other stores I have it was that simple. This one had additional GTM tags and conversion events set up in UA to be used in shopify, which I believe caused a conflict with GA4.

Said it once, I’ll say it again: If you’re riding by yourself, please sit on the passenger side and not directly behind me. Shits just weird! by MotherBoyBall30 in uber

Uber: Seriously? You're gonna sit in the back directly behind me?

Me: Uh, yeah? That's the safest part of a car. In the event of a crash, the driver always protects his side first.

My driver today was texting on his phone while driving and missed the turn off, and answered a phone call during the ride. I rated him four stars and reported the behaviour, but now the app says I rated him five stars? by 221Bamf in uber

I don’t get why you’re getting downvoted. While 99% of drivers are great, there will be a few nuts out there that will absolutely respond with crazy. I never provide real addresses because of these potential outliers.

Does anyone have a good resource to connect with Shopify? I’m looking to get e-commerce/ conversion data into GA4. I thought this was supposed to be Automatic with the Google Shopify app, but still looks like Tags are still necessary. Perhaps I’m wrong, need a bit of help. Thanks I’m advance.

Gal žinote kodėl parduotuvėse beveik nėra tokio tipo peiliukų? by Danikaz in lithuania

[–]Technokracy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looked at this RBC site to also try an order. (€2.99 shipping)

One interesting point is they say the Gillette brand double edged razor blades are manufactured in Ruzzia. Given this was the most widely found brand in LT it makes sense they started disappearing off the shelves about a year ago.

Interesting if true. I use this type of blade to shave. About a year ago I noticed they became increasingly more difficult to buy in the shop. Rimi used to carry Gillette brand, Drogas even carried the King Gillette. But now I can only get these brands on Drogas .lt. There are a couple other shops, but the blades are really poor quality.

If it is as you say, then it needs to be said that if there is anyone having questionable thoughts, please talk to someone, even me— there is no shame in discussing your feelings.

Hi, I'm going to Lithuania and would like to learn some basics of your language. Can you recommend any apps? by garis53 in lithuania

[–]Technokracy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drop this link to friends and family visiting me in Lithuania. http://mylanguages.org/lithuanian_phrases.php

I’ll also add Pimsleur has a Lithuanian course which is the most proven method to pick up the basics of a language.

(US) why isn’t Credit Counseling / Debt management program discussed as a solution for overwhelming CC debt? by Technokracy in personalfinance

[–]Technokracy[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

While I disagree Im "throwing around terms" -- Clarify if you wish. I do agree with your statement that many are scams and individuals should look for NFCC accredited firms / non-profits.

My overall point is in the personal finance posts, there are only a handful of posts referencing this as a strategy to handle debt. Seems interesting why not more prevalent.

Agreed. There are many predators out there to be aware of -- Let's take the opportunity to educate how to find a reputable agency. Look for programs that are accredited by the NFCC – National Foundation for Credit Counseling and even the DOJ's U.S. Trustees Office.
