Hello everyone, I am beyond depressed about my debt situation I am in and let me explain the background a bit. I was married to my exwife for five years. I never was involved with the finances since she said she would handle it, and I trust her since she worked at a bank for years. She took out a private student loan from Teri for the sum of 16,000. She put herself as the cosigner so she could cash the check. Now, the creditors are breathing down our necks for the money since we are years late on paying it. So, we each have to make monthly payments on that.
Then at the end of the divorce we had to put our condo in foreclosure! She had taken an equity on the home of 25,000 in the marriage. Now, the lender called to tell her that we will have to pay all that money back immediately since the condo didn't sell in the auction for that much! When I talked to them late last year they said I didn't have to pay anything on the equity either, but now that has changed?!
So we are looking at $42,000 total in combined debt!!!
Now, I moved in with my grandpa to cut living costs, but my hours have been cut at work due to the economy. I only make 10.30 an hour.
(
I am dating someone who will only discuss marriage when my debt is paid for, and I am just overwhelmed on what I should do! My ex and I are on ok talking terms, but I want her our of my life and this DEBT.
Any words of wisdom would help! THANK YOU!
