I was never one for managing money, and now I have over $50,000 in
credit card debt plus student loans and car payments. I have been on
several message boards looking for advice and have talked to credit
counseling companies. My friend sent me info about a new financial
makeover show. I called them and they seemed really helpful, but
there's one catch. You have to live in South Florida, and I don't.
But if there are any Floridians out there that want to give it a try,
here is the info they sent me:
Are you in debt? Are financial problems putting a strain on your
relationships? Maybe we can help. A&E will be shooting a financial
makeover show in South Florida. Our experts maybe able to help you get
your life on track. If you are ready to make a change in your life and
get the creditors off your back we want to hear from you. Send an email

Unfortunately, there really are few options for dealing with debt. One
option is to start spending a lot less and saving a lot more, another
option is to try to renegotiate the debt/terms (possibly through
bankruptcy), and a last option is to increase your income (via
investments or earnings). A credit company really isn't going to do
more than that -- unless they are going to give you a cash prize. You
might try to do the options listed above, by creating a realistic
budget and sticking to it. If you need help sticking to it (i.e., you
need to be held accountable by someone about your spending), you might
enlist the help of a loved one or a pastor.


Best of luck,

I thought she was trolling. Afterall, her e-mail had the same ISP as the
show.

Above poster pleasantly suggested in two concise sentences something
most of us would struggle to cover in several paragraphs.

I have seen that same northsouth.tv spam posted elsewhere (forums).
Isn't south Florida the land of spammers and scammers? I wonder if that
person is from Boca Raton.

Sara, you lying spammer. Did you not notice that the account you're using to
post your bogus message is hosted by your Northsouth Productions, the
company that's producing the show?
