Reporter’s Query: Got a Money Problem?

By Kimberly Palmer

Posted: September 18, 2008

For an upcoming video project, I'm looking for someone in the Washington, D.C., area who has a financial question or problem related to saving money, retirement, or paying off debt. If you fit this description and are willing to talk about it, please E-mail me at alphaconsumer@usnews.com.

University and borrowed money

You right if you have no money no problems will occur. But if you have no money and you have a child at univerity it becomes a huge problem.

I have written a letter to the Microsoft gentleman that we have savings of 20,000.00 left from borrowing from a studentsloan helper.

In my letter I stated if any help can be given on how to make this money (grow) so that we do not have to borrow so much next year. No answer from the gentleman Mr Buffet or the Microsoft guy. Suppose it's small change and nothing will make it grow.

No she is not a spoiled brat. No car she walks to where ever she wants to go!! Thank you for your time.

No.

In order to have a money problem, one must have money.

No money -- no problem.

It's as simple as that.
