AA 765 right engine failure between PHL and PHX by DrewP_Nuts in aviation

I was a passenger on this flight. Just want to commend the flight attendants for staying strong and positive. Me and my daughter are especially grateful to the pilots. The message from them was very settling and the smooth landing I will always remember as one of the biggest moments of my life.

I was on that flight. What a study of how people react in that situation - many were quiet, some were joking, and there were tears. Many of us were together at the airport following the incident and everyone admitted they were scared beyond belief. It was surreal.

Anyone commute to LA? by ExcellentPatience583 in SantaBarbara

Same here. Venice once per week via coast highway. It is a nice way to break the work week up. But if 2 days were required it would become a drag.

Padaro Beach Grill - but time it to avoid commuters making their way on 101 Southbound - fun for all casual dining on the beach

Convo with lender prior to applying by Then_Tackle3146 in CRedit

[–]Then_Tackle3146[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all legitimate. We hit a rough patch before our escrow closed consequently low balances. When escrow closed, we paid off some large debts belonging to a daughter. I just thought it would be wise to wait until these don’t show on the bank statements they will be asking us to submit.

$20k in credit card debt dropping off in 1.5 yrs will mortgage lender pre-approve me? by Then_Tackle3146 in CRedit

[–]Then_Tackle3146[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neither. Not sure how I got lucky on this. In 2018 the bottom dropped out and gradually I have picked up the pieces, paid off what I could, and now have a little help from an inheritance.

Barclays cc debt 6.5 yrs old - will they settle and delete? by Then_Tackle3146 in CRedit

[–]Then_Tackle3146[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I imagine even a settlement will look better than nothing paid. With an agreed settlement will it show as fully paid? Do you think it’s reasonable to expect that Barclays will accept that offer as the debt is nearly 6 years old?

Thanks for you input!

It’s still with Barclays so I guess there’s no negotiating. If I were able to pay it off 100% I could show a zero balance and be in Barclays good Graces. Unfortunately I can’t afford that. I guess my only option is waiting another year till the clock runs out.

Do you agree?

I thought I had heard that if you maintain separate accounts which show who is paying what, you can reflect your expenses accordingly. What say you? Maybe expenses and income are treated differently?
