    Yes, every day or even 4 days because most of my dr. appts are on Tues and Thur. So I miss some of those and then my computer crashed so I could not watch until today when I got my computer back. But I miss the live because there are some questions I would have asked.

    Missed the first part initially. The guy probably needed his wheelchair accessible vehicle. Hope he figured out what to do.

    I have Student Loan debt. It's not protected from bankruptcy. What are my options? Can't afford it.

      Assuming you receive retirement income. In the past 15% of SS can be offset for a past due student loan. However that is presently stayed at least through October. Then if you are lower-income you can likely qualify for an income based repayment of student loans and pay nothing. We have some videos on this channel that discuss student loans in more detail. Eric HELPS p.s. It is possible in may cases now to discharge a student loan through a process in bankruptcy.

    If I am over 68 and receive $1500 from Social Security, make about $50,000 a year from my job and find out that a debt collector who has a default judgement on an old credit card, removes $5000 from my bank account, what is my remedy?
