Lenders,  

Thank you for taking the time to review my listing. This loan is to help with my wedding expenses.

I have been a lender for sometime now (Oct 2006).  I had requested a loan earlier for $10,000 (final interest rate was 10.69%) in May 07 (Listing #131715) which I paid off in full.  The previous loan was intended to reinvest in Prosper, however after careful consideration, I did not reinvest the total amount and paid the loan off earlier.   

For the new requested loan, I may make extra payments depending on my future cash flow but plan on keeping this loan atleast for 2 years (even longer depending on the final bid-down interest rate).

Per Month:
Salary:  $3410.10 (after taxes and deductions, Gross = $62,000).  Expected 10-15% raise per industry average/performance rating in Oct 08 (I am working at a Big 4 Accounting firm as a Senior Associate).

Expenses per month:
Rent :  $1094
Groceries: $200
Misc (incl. entertainment): $300
Electricity + Heating: $100
Cable and Internet: $80
Car:  $375 (total car loan amount is at 2.9%)
Gas: Paid by employer
Cell phone:  Paid by employer
Total: $2,149
-------------------------------------------
Left over:  $1261 per month

I am 28 years old having an MBA (Accounting) and a BEng (Computer-Electrical Engineering) and have completely paid off all student loans. I have a personal credit card balance of approx $4000 which is at 0% for the next 4 months, which I plan to pay off before the 0% expires. I also have approx $10,000 in my Retirement accounts (401K and Roth IRA) and approx $2000 in an online savings account (building emergency fund) which I contribute to every month. My savings account was higher but I used a portion of this for a ring for my fiance.

I keep a close eye on my credit and will not default.  I would do anything in my power not to ruin my credit history.  Thanks again for your consideration.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,
Mahtma_Gandhi
