About Me:

I am a 41 year old single woman living in Los Angles with my dog Trevor. My boyfriend and I of 2 ½ years, whom I lived with, recently broke up and we are now living separately. As such, my expenses have suddenly and unexpectedly doubled. In addition, my apartment complex is turning condo and I must move out. Rents in LA are median $1588 and most do not allow pets. After weeks of searching, I found one that will take my dog and the rent will be $1600. My current apartment is $1550 of which I was paying half, so although it?s a similar rent, it?s still double for me. I have a very stable job as an HR Representative for a large architecture/design firm and I am Ivy League educated?I went to Columbia University where I hold a BA degree in English Literature.


Purpose of this Loan:

One of my accounts, with a balance of $4K, can be paid off with only $2000, according to a recent offer I received. With this loan, I will be able to accept that offer, and pay off two other (current) credit accounts, saving a total of $150 in monthly payments.


My Credit Rating:

My credit report shows delinquencies incorrectly, because I have payment arrangements on all the old accounts, and those arrangements are current. Just last month I was able finish paying off one of those accounts, which was $1700 last year. So I am making progress, and I am hoping that with this loan I can further improve my credit situation.


My Monthly Income:

My takehome pay, biweekly, is $1560, so my monthly takehome pay is $3380.


My Monthly Expenses:

The accounts I will pay off with this loan entail monthly payments of $150, so those expenses are not shown in my expense summary below:

  • Rent $1600
  • Utilities/phone/cable: $160
  • Food: $200
  • Car (pymt/ins/gas): $475
  • (credit card bills, dog) $580
  • giving a total monthly expense of $3015, not counting the Prosper loan.


Paying This Loan:

Comparing my listed expenses above to my current income, shows that I have a cushion of over $350/mo, which is about three times the amount needed to pay this loan. And that cash flow situation will improve further as I get other accounts paid off over time. With this loan, I'll be able to get a good start on repairing my financial situation, and I plan to finish the job!
