So right now i am in the ball room of the hotel. All of the doors of the hotel have been blocked and they put steel beams through the side of the doors to secure them from wind damage. Weve got about 100 chairs and it does look like an emergency shelter. We have some tables and board games but that is what it looks like now. How worried are people there with you . Are you scared . Very, very scared earlier in the day as we looked like the trajectory. It looked like it was going to make land fall in Puerto Vallar vallarta. It looks like that it may have run aground farther south and our thoughts and prayers go to those folks from our perspective it means the storm surge, the waves which were afraid of will not be as dangerous, and hopefully, winds will be less intense. What is the plan for once the storm clears . Do you have an idea what timetable that will be . Were expecting high winds, and it sounds like a water fall. Thereafter, were told is that there is a slight chance it could move back toward the swae. In which case, well be in the shelter all night. Assuming it continues, the projected path, there is hope that staff will make sure everything is safe and we can be back in our rooms at 11 00 p. M. Or midnight tonight. That would be great.

The average American Household is more than 7600s ndz debt. For those in deep financial trouble there something you can do about it. How you can reduce before paying it off.

Her exhusband is a contractor, and crosses bay area bridges to get to various jobs. The couple shared a joint account, accumulating thousands in fast track tolls and penalties. I went to fast track and negotiated it down. Pauline pleaded Financial Hardship and fast track agreed to reduce her debt from 4500 to a thousand dollars. Its a common practice used by debt counsellors. But abby warns it isnt easy. If you are severely delinquent, and you have a lump sum, they may accept it. Being laid off is an example of a hardship. Quitting is not. But there are no hard and fast rules. They told me it was open for negotiation. And then, i had to fill out paper work. Which i did. Ford says reach out early before youre delinquent. Tell them what youre going through. They might be willing to work with you in other ways. You may be able to negotiate a reduced Interest Rate or lower your payment until youre out of the hardship. It takes patience, but in the end its worth it. So will this work for you . Fast track will settle one time at a reduced penalty if the customer agrees to maintain at kt in Good Standing going forward. I have a link to irs Debt Settlement program at our website.
