PASSED BAR EXAM IN CALIFORNIA 2006

I finished law school in December 2005.  I took the Bar in Feb-06 (California).  I passed the bar and I am now a licensed attorney in California.  Furthermore -- attached is a picture of my diploma.   

LAW SCHOOL DEBT - CONSUMER DEBT

I currently have large law school debt.  Additionally, while I have several credit cards, the vast majority (>80%) of the cards are at 2-3.xx%.  One card, however, is at 19% -- and the card simply won?t negotiate.  I owe ~$6,100 on that card. 

DEBT-INCOME RATIOS - IN POST LAW SCHOOL WORLD

I have no delinquencies.  I've always paid my bills on time.  My credit score is simply brought down by abnormal debt-to-income ratios which occur immediately after graduation and before the first job. 

REPUTATION eBay and eMove

I have had an account on eBay for six years.  I have a rating of 98.5% positive.  My eBay ID is TKLEFF.   See attached photo.  eMove Reputation: I also maintain a part-time business as a mover at eMove.  I suspect I will earn a few thousand dollars from moving this summer.   See attached photo from reputation screen (4.9 out of 5). 

BarBri Grader

I?m a BarBri grader as well.  We are paid piecemeal.  $3 per essay and $5 per performance test.  I expect to earn at least $1,000 from this endeavor between 06-08-06 and 07-10-06.  I believe I?ll be paid in the middle of July.   

EDUCATION  

I went to the Berklee College of Music for undergrad [alumni relations:  617-747-2236].  I then went to Southwestern University School of Law.  [Registrar: 213-738-6734.]  My name is on the pass list for the February 2006 Bar Exam [See, http://members.calbar.ca.gov/exam/].   

EMPLOYMENT

I already have a legal job (as a paid law clerk) in a government office (the LA district attorney?s office).  My group leader is welcome to call and confirm.  I will also provide a photograph of a recent paystub.  I currently earn ~$40,000 per year from that job.  I also earn ? best estimate ? an additional $5,000 per year from:  a) eBay sales; b) grading exams; c) playing music in a cover band [drums]; d) moving on eMove (emove.com ? I run Mover?s Galore).  I expect that to increase to $55,000 per year (at minimum) after I gain my first legal job.  I then expect the income to grow as follows: 2007:  ~$60,0002008: ~$70,0002009: ~$80,000

QUICKEN  

I?m a Quicken user.  So I know the particulars of my financial situation.  I track all of my expenses (see photos of receipts in envelopes).

COMMUNICATION  

Feel free to email me and ask questions.  If you do email me, I will also provide a telephone no. at which you can call me.  I?d be happy to answer whatever questions you have.    --Craig.
