Purpose of loan:
The purpose of this loan is to transfer a credit card debt to a lower interest loan.

My financial situation:
Over the last five years, I have accrued a large amount of debt that has made it difficult to pay my regular bills and high interest credit cards.  During the past few months, I have taken the steps to transfer the high interest credit cards to low interest rates.  This loan is the last step in which I will be closing a credit card with 21.99%. 

I have also been working closely with my group leader in setting forth a plan to retire all of my debt and at the same time to begin saving money.  With this plan, I will be out of debt in 8 years and I will have been able to save and invest 10% of my income for long term planning.  My wife and I are excited about the differences that we have seen in our financial situation  in the past few months, and we look forward to the future. 

I have two credit inquiries on my credit score - the first one was for a credit card in which we transferred a portion of our debt to a card offering 3.995 until the balance transfer is paid off.  We do not use this card for any other purpose.  The second inquiry was from a local bank that I recently applied for an unsecured loan. This loan was declined due to the fact that it is unsecured and I do not own my home. 

If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.  If you choose to invest in this loan, you will not be disappointed.  I give you my word that I will repay this loan according to the terms set forth.  Thank you.
