My financial situation:
I work as an accountant for First Insurance Funding corp. in Northbrook, IL for over 8 years in a row; my husband works for Wayatt Austin Jewelers, in Schaumburg, IL for about 3 years.

We own two condos, one in uptown Chicago and one in Vernon Hills, IL. The Chicago one is nearly paid off; we rent out the one in Vernon Hills for $1200/mo. Our real estate agent recently advised that we "short sell" it because of the real estate market slump, and we followed her advice; she said that we should stop paying the mortgage on that property, and so we did -- and that's where 2 delinquencies came from.

We also own two cars (Nissan Altima 1998 and Nissan Centra 2001) which are completely paid off.

Monthly net income: $ 4500
   My salary: $ 2000 (gross) / $ 1400 (net)
   My husband's salary: $ 3000 (gross) / $ 2200 (net)
   2nd condo rent: $ 1200 (gross) / $ 900 (net)

Monthly expenses: $ 3860
 
Housing: $ 440/mo (assessment + mortgage combined, payable through our condo association)
  Insurance: $ 150/mo
  Car expenses: $ 300/mo
  Utilities: $ 80/mo
  Phone, cable, internet: $ 240/mo
  Food, entertainment: $ 400/mo
  Clothing, household expenses $ 200/mo
  Other expenses: $ 200/mo
  Credit cards and other loans: $ 1850/mo (see breakout below:)
     Discover card: $500/mo
     United Mileage: $500/mo
     Wells Fargo: $200/mo
     ABT store: $300/mo
     Credit One: $200/mo
     Charter One: $50/mo
     Wells Fargo #1: $50/mo
     Wells Fargo #2: $50/mo
     1st condo mortgage: (included on the "Housing" line above)
     2nd condo mortgage: $0 (see "my financial situation" above for explanation)

As you see, by closing the top three cards, I will save $1200 a month while paying, in worst case scenario (if the rate isn't bid down any) $720/mo, with clear end in sight.

Why my account shows as unverified: this is my very first listing on Prosper, and it claims that my account cannot be verified till the listing is at least 5% funded. I will verify my account as soon as I will be allowed to do so.
