Also, can I apply from home?

Thanks

Want to start flying with SW and take advantage of the CC offers, do I take the in flight offer (65k) or do I wait?

Under new IBR rules if my income increases will interest capitalized?

Hi

I’m trying to help my girlfriend plan a big move and want to make sure we’re thinking about this the right way.

She’s moving to Florida (near Orlando) for a 1.5-year fellowship, with a high chance of staying long-term if things go well. She’ll be starting pretty much from scratch — she just graduated about a month ago, doesn’t have much in savings, and has student loans.

Here’s her situation:

• Income (starting August): $42/hour, 37.5 hours/week ($81k/year before taxes)
• Employer provides $2,000 for relocation
• No meaningful savings yet
• Has student loans
• Currently planning to build an emergency fund.
• Will be living alone.
• Needs a car (public transportation isn’t an option where she’ll be)

What we’re currently thinking:

• Rent target: ~$1,200–$1,500/month
• She’ll likely need to finance a car
• We’re trying to improve her FICO score over the next few months to get a better auto loan rate
• Budgeting for additional expenses like car insurance, utilities (electric, water), internet, etc.

I’ll be visiting about once a month while she decides whether to stay long-term, but she’ll be financially independent day-to-day.

Appreciate any guidance — especially from people who’ve relocated recently or started from scratch in a similar situation. Thanks

Donde estaban metidos? Debajo de una piedra? Llevan desde la semana pasada avisando que si no se llegaba a un acuerdo antes de sábado la aerolínea iba a cesar operaciones..

Ps. Si pagaste con tarjeta de crédito o debito se reembolsaran tu dinero, de lo contrario puedes pedir un chargeback al banco.

My girlfriend is moving to Florida for a long-term fellowship with a good chance of a permanent position. She’s considering financing a car since she can’t bring her own, and renting or a short-term lease isn’t an option. She’ll be living there alone, so she needs something reliable with a warranty.

A Corolla Cross is a good option?

Flying to Orlando this August and my return flight is $177 (Blue Basic) or $188 (Blue).

I might book the outbound separately (even with another airline). Just want JetBlue on the way back for comfort.

If I book now and the price drops later, can I take advantage of the price drop?

I managed to lower my APR in the past years, currenly at 14.74%

I currently have about a $3,000 balance at 0% APR that I’ve been paying down over time.

I’m trying to decide whether I should keep the balance on my Discover card or transfer it to PenFed, which offered me 12 months at 0% APR.

For context, I have about 6 months left on my current balance transfer offer. I’m also a bit concerned because Capital One doesn’t seem very generous with balance transfer offers for existing customers.

Thanks
