Up until about eight years ago, I was considered successful. I had a wonderful job, money saved in the bank, stocks/investments, excellent credit and I was married. But unfortunately life happened, my marriage dissolved and due to a horrible divorce, my savings were depleted and eventually I had to file bankruptcy due to the debt incurred during the marriage. I didn?t dwell on what happened to me, I kept moving on and doing the things I needed to do in order to start my life over. I have always been a very strong willed and determined person; I refuse to let any situation keep me down. I did start over and I was in the process of rebuilding my life and credit; I was able to get a couple of credit cards to help improve my credit.  

Over the course of the last few years I had to change employment due to mergers, buy-outs, and downsizing. Things were getting strained and I came to Prosper for help and I got it! My loan was funded and I have NEVER missed a payment.   Unfortunately, due to the economy, I was eventually left without a permanent job. Thankfully I was able to get my unemployment but because of the amount of the unemployment I had to prioritize what household expenses were going to get paid; which meant rent and utilities had to definitely get paid, my Prosper loan was always paid but unfortunately I had a couple of credit cards bills that I was not able to pay, which in turn has greatly hurt my credit when I was in the process of rebuilding my credit.  

I now have a permanent job again and I have been working consistently; I am ready to get things back in order! Therefore I am requesting help from Prosper again. I?ve come to Prosper because although on paper I may appear to be a financial risk, I am actually a very responsible and dependable person, and the friends at Prosper realized that. Although it has been almost a decade, I had always maintained excellent credit and a savings/investment portfolio. Now I have definitely proven that to Prosper, I have been a member since 2006 and as I have stated, I have never missed a payment and my initial loan was approximately $3,000.00   My intentions are very simple; I am applying for the loan in order to consolidate my existing debts, which includes four creditors, and my current Prosper loan. By consolidating my currents, I will put myself in the position to start to repair and rebuild my credit.   Below is a list of my current income and debts  

Monthly net income: $ 2000

Monthly expenses: $ 1459  
Housing: $ 450   
Insurance: $ 89
