I received just one bid on my first listing so I am trying again. I have set a higher interest rate this time and listed for only 3 days. There may have been concerns that I would pay off this loan immediately, but I offer assurance that this is not the case. I intend to make consistent on-time payments with this loan for 2 years after which time I will pay off the remaining balance.

Purpose of loan:

The primary purpose of this loan is to help improve my credit by having another account on my report with a perfect repayment history. I will use the funds to pay off the balance on my credit card and purchase a birthday gift for my girl.

My financial situation:
My credit went downhill after I was laid off in 2001. It took a while, but I was able to turn things around and pay off over $10,000 in debt. My current monthly income from my part time job (that I have had for nearly 5 years) is low, but I make additional (and consistent) advertising income from a network of websites.

I live with my girlfriend who has been employed full time since I met her (3+ years ago) and we split all the expenses.

I am deeply committed to raising my credit score so I will not make any late payments.


Monthly net income: $1000

Monthly expenses:
  Housing: $300
  Insurance: $50
  Utilities: $60
  Phone, cable, internet: $40
  Credit cards and other loans: $130
