Purpose of loan:
I will be using this loan to pay down my high interest credit card debt. I have listed the 4 cards I will pay off below. 

My financial situation:
Aside from the lease on my apartment, I owe $20,200 in credit card debt.  I also have a student loan with deductible interest that costs $30 dollars a month.  I do not have a mortgage, car loan, or other expense.  I have been steadily employed by a Fortune 500 company for the last 4 1/2 years.  Each year, I have earned a raise.  I have an MBA, as well as an AS degree in database technology. 

For the last 15 years, I have made timely payments on a debt that often equaled my income.  I have never been in bankruptcy.  I recently paid off my first Prosper loan in 1 years time.  My credit rating is proof of my shouldering this debt successfully.  I do seem to have a bad debt of $26 on my credit report.  I charged a shirt on sale ($10) at JC Penny and they never sent me a bill.  With so many bills, I forgot about it, until Fidelity sent me to the 26% rate on a debt that was, at the time, over $6000.  I paid JC Penny as soon as I found out - was it last December? - and its still sitting there on my credit report. 

Why let the credit card companies make so much money off of me when you can get a great rate lending to a very responsible borrower?  After so many years of making timely payments, I think the risk you take in lending to me is well worth the return.
