Interest Rates just were raised again

Get out of debt! Sounds simple, right? No, we know it’s not so easy, but it’s important given the uncertain political climate and major transition happening in our country. Interest rates just were raised again, for the second time this year, and are expected to go up again at least once more in 2017. Rates for mortgage modifications alone have risen from 3.5% to 4.25% since December! The sooner you manage your debt, the better off you are to be ready for a rainy day.

Hidden Costs of Contingency Fees – You know the old adage, “It sounds too good to be true?”, well contingency fees can sometimes fit into that category. In workers’ compensation and personal injury cases, like car accidents or other medical claims, attorneys get paid on contingency meaning they don’t charge you for their time spent litigating the case until it is settled in the client’s favor. Sounds great, right? However, in order to properly litigate your case, there could be hard costs, expenses and other fees charged to you for evidence gathering and expert testimony. Make sure you stay in close communication with your attorney so they aren’t incurring these costs, which will be charged back to your case, without your knowledge and buy-in. Otherwise your settlement could be greatly impacted by such costs once the payout for settlement is made. Moreover, if you lose your case, in some instances you could also be responsible for the other side’s attorney costs, in addition to our own.

    I think what you said made a bunch of sense. However, what about this?
    what if you were to write a awesome title? I am not suggesting your content is not solid.,
    but what if you added a title that grabbed people’s
    attention? I mean Debt!! Why it’s important to get out of debt – Ask Steve — UnitedLawCenter is a little boring.
    You could glance at Yahoo’s home page and see how they create article headlines to
    get people to open the links. You might add a video or a related pic or two to grab people interested about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it could
    bring your posts a little livelier.

    “Sin embargo, con todo el tema de las criptomonedas es muy difícil saber a ciencia cierta qué va a pasar más adelante, hay mucha incertidumbre en el mercado en general, con respecto a algunas regulaciones que la SEC quiere adoptar, así como China y países europeos (…). Bitcoin es tan virtual como las tarjetas de crédito y las redes bancarias que la gente usa cada día. 2. Depositar dinero en la cuenta recién abierta (por ejemplo, mediante transferencia bancaria, tarjeta de crédito o PayPal). Ahora en algunos sondeos estamos viendo un 21 o 22%. Lo que está cambiando es que la CDU está perdiendo mucho crédito. El director de la Fundación Bitcoin Colombia, Carlos Mesa, mencionó que existen varios modelos predictivos en el mundo de las criptomonedas que apuntan desde un precio de entre US$180.000 y US$350.000 a final de año (Stock-To-Flow), hasta uno más moderado del rango de entre US$80.000 y US$120.000 (Diminishing Returns). El numero de bitcoins creados cada año se reduce a la mitad de forma automática a lo largo del tiempo hasta que la emisión de bitcoin se detenga por completo al llegar a los 21 millones de bitcoins. Reducción a la mitad: reducir a la mitad la recompensa por extraer una criptomoneda.

  7. I don’t even understand how I ended up here, but I believed
    this put up was good. I do not understand who you’re but certainly you
    are going to a well-known blogger if you happen to are not already.
    Cheers!

  10. After I originally commented I appear to have clicked
    the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a comment is added I receive 4 emails with the exact same comment.
    Is there a way you are able to remove me from that service?

    Cheers!
