That vow of for better or worse also meant that you share in whatever debts you and your spouse accumulated in the marriage. Mortgages and credit cards are usually the biggest joint debts. You are both responsible for anything you have signed together like joint tax returns, joint credit card debts, joint mortgages or loans. If your spouse is spending money recklessly after you file for divorce, file a motion with the court explaining what is happening and ask for an early hearing. |

Little amounts can make a large difference to your finances. As gasoline and food prices continue to rise, the squeeze to make family budgets balance each month becomes more of a struggle. After the big savings have been found and taken, smaller savings have to be found to make ends meet. This can be frustrating as it can feel like everyone is being nickled and dimed to death. That's why it's important to realize how these small amounts can make a huge difference in your overall financial health. |

With more people falling behind on their consumer loan payments, regulators and consumer advocates say they're seeing a surge in aggressive — and sometimes questionable — debt-collection tactics.
Complaints against debt collectors, after plunging in 2005, are rising again, the Council of Better Business Bureaus says. Complaints surged 20% in 2006 and 26% in 2007, according to the BBB's preliminary figures. And the Federal Trade Commission, which receives more complaints about debt collectors than about any other industry, says it's seen a steady rise in complaints against debt collectors. |

If you receive a windfall of cash (such as a tax refund or collection of a debt from a friend), you may face a common dilemma: Invest, pay off debt, or spend. (Spending is not considered as an option here.) If better personal budgeting has helped you save an additional amount every month, a debt repayment plan may be preferable to saving until most of the debt is gone. |
