Purpose of loan:
This loan will be used to help me cover some of the expenses associated with a college education. I am currently employed with a local heating and air-conditioning contractor as an operational manager.  My company has been gracious enough to allow me a 6-month sabbatical as well as help with some of the costs to finish my degree in Business Finance.

My financial situation:
I am a good candidate for this loan because I am actively involved in managing my own finances. I always pay my bills on time.  I also live well below my means, as you can see by my monthly expenses.  Most of my money is reinvested in my home, education, or retirement.  The debt I have on credit cards is all at a 0% interest rate; I use special offers to pay for my tuition up front and then budget my payments to avoid interest.  I have a very good job, one in which they are proactively helping me finish my education!  I feel very fortunate to have my position, so I would like to expedite my education so I can focus solely on my career.

I am very proud of the fact that I have been able to buy a home, go to school, and build a career-- without assuming a terrible amount of debt.  I am now hoping that the Prosper community can help me through my final courses so I can finally finish my degree!  As a prosper lender myself, I know how beneficial these loans can be for an individual to achieve a variety of goals. 

Monthly net income: $3100
I have a 1-year lease with two tenants, both of which live with me at my house.  I collect $410 from each of them every month.
