This loan will be used to consolidate high interest credit card debt:
My wife and I have some high interest credit card debt that we
accumulated during college. We were in a long distance relationship
for four years, and we used a lot of credit to travel to see each other.
We are now settled and have good jobs that we enjoy, and we are ready to
tackle this debt within the next year and a half to two years. We want to
get the debt off of our shoulders so we can start building a solid financial
future!

Here is a breakdown of our credit card debt:
Visa - 26.99% - $6893
HSBC LOC(this is store CC) - 22.9% - $1220.18
MC - 19.49% - $5845
Visa - 16.49% - $3566

Total - 17524.18
Average APR - 21.47%

My goal is to use $6893 to pay off the high interest Visa card and the rest to pay on
the HSBC, which is the next highest interest rate. I will pay the minimum on the Prosper
loan until I pay off the other credit cards.
Once those are paid in full, I will increase payments on the Prosper loan until it is paid in full.

Our financial situation:
We pay all of our bills on time and we do not have any delinquent or defaulted
accounts. We are currently paying much more than the minimum on our credit cards,
so we will have no problem making the payments on a loan from Prosper, as we will
be transferring the balance. We are on track to pay the cards off within the
next couple of years, however, we would like to save some money in the process
by finding a lower interest rate.

Our Combined Monthly net income: $5361(will be around $5861 starting Jan. 1st)

Our Monthly expenses: $4136
  Housing: $1300
  Insurance: $44
  Car expenses: $120
  Utilities: $200
  Phone, cable, internet: $175
  Food, entertainment: $500
  Clothing, household expenses $500
  Credit cards and other loans: $985
  Other expenses: $312
