El Chimpancé Caliente asked:


The amount of debt a person has represented is around 30% of their FICO score. Does this mean the LIBOR rate has a direct affect on FICO scores. ie. lower rate = less amount owed and a higher rate = more is owed. Therefor a direct effect?

Gary T asked:


There is no question about whether we have debt or a deficit but how much of it was created by fraud, corruption and political bribery?

Our government is audited by the government. What are the chances of turning themselves in?

Obama stated he is going to fund the part of his health care bill with the 600 billion dollars of inefficiencies, fraud, and corruption already in the system. If he knows their is inefficiencies, fraud and corruption…..can’t you and shouldn’t you correct that regardless if the bill gets passed?

Do you think some other independent entity audit our government?

John S asked:


According to current projections, the Social Security System will experience an operating deficit around 2018. Assuming the other parts of the federal budget are also in deficit, how will this affect the national debt and the debt held by the public?

Donna C asked:


My husband (to be) and I have a large amount of student loan debt. Would it be better to pay this down or off quickly while dumping money into rent – or to invest in a home and pay less money on our student loans (home will cost more so we’ll have less money to pay towards our loans).

There are a lot of positives and negatives to both, what is your opinion on the matter and why. Thanks.

dude asked:


Had the same job for 3.5 years, what are my chances of getting a car loan?
I filed for Bankrupcy 2 years ago and have had the same job for 2.5 years. I wonder how it is possible for someone who has not filed for BK to have a lower score then mine?
