Hello Lenders!
After joining a group and spending additional time reading and learning, I'm taking another stab at this. I am a 25 y/o professional looking to consolidate 4 high interest credit cards into one lower interest rate loan. You will see that my credit record has no delinquencies, and dates back to 2000. My higher DTI is due to the fact that I have two automobiles on my credit. I only pay for one of these, and can document this if needed. I do, however, make sure that I have enough left over in my budget and enough in savings that I am covered if something were to happen that would require me to pay for it. My bank account is verified, and my identity and income have been vetted by my GL. I hold a Bachelor's, work full time in marketing, and have been in the same industry since I graduated college in 2005. I make 48k per year (not including bonuses, which are not guaranteed) and also hold a second job on weekends working with animals making 300-500 per month, depending on how many hours I choose to work. I also have a savings account and a modest 401(k).

I would like to consolidate the following credit cards:
Card:             Balance:             Min. Payment:      Rate:      Months to Pay at Min.
Citi Student    2950.00              104.00                 32%        53
Citibank         1266.50               38.00                  32%        80
Zales             3511.00              113.00                 26%        50
Chase           1450.00               50.00                  29%        50
I pay 375.00 per month on these 4 cards (I usually pay more than min. on the ones with 32% rate)
Pre-Prosper Loan Monthly budget:
Net Monthly income:   $2800 to $3000
Rent: $502
Student loan: $106.52
Utilities: $75
Food: $100
Gas $100
Car Payment: $381
Credit card payments: $800
Savings $200
Total Debts: 2264.52
After Prosper Loan:
Credit card min. payments: $800 - $375.00 = $425.00 + Prosper Loan $367.74 = $792.74
By getting this Prosper loan, I will be reduce my total monthly debt by approx $7.26/mo & will be able to pay all these cards off in 3 years, rather than 4, 6, 4 and 4 years respectively.
Net Monthly income:   $2800 to $3000
Minus Debts:                     - $2257.26         =$542.74 to $742.74 leftover each mo.

As you can see, I have comfortable room in my budget to pay this Prosper loan. If you are interested in seeing a link to my previous RML thread/vetting thread, it can be found here:
