I remember JustAGirl73, thought jag73 is just into Jaguars (car).

Lol she is! I mean, I am 😂. But in this case, it’s a shortened version of justagirl.

Anything that lowers APR I would in a hear beat.  The savings can be used to pay it down even faster.   DW has $4K of her kitchen on 0% til next November 2019. I have our IRS bill at 0% til next October.  I just pay an equal amount of the principal on each every month.

I miss my baby Jag... Sigh... That was a great car.... Though never get the first model year of a vehicle.... 

It actually had a not suitable for work name as well... 

Yes Enterprise carries some interesting post-lease vehicles...

Tcbo, if this loan can make your life easier or help simplify your credit, saving you money as well, i would do it. Best part of this loan is once its paid off so is that debtSmiley Happy. Good luck on your decision. I was supper happy to get my PL from Amex . Even though i may pay a little interest , i also look at it like im strengthening my credit and bettering my relationship with Amex for the future.

I believe that it can simplify my credit and save me some dollars.  I didn't get the rate that YOU got you lucky son of a fish, but it's lower than the credit card interest rates. 

 

Offer is good through 30 November, so I might just sit on it for a week or so.

 


I'm all about supporting people with their gardening endeavors, but I'm also quick to point out that credit should work for us - not the other way around - and that gardening should (usually) be a means to an end, not the destination itself.

 

That said, anytime there's an opportunity to save money I'm almost always "all-in" unless there are other circumstances (preparing for a mortgage, etc.). 

 

TL;DR... If this will save you interest and simplify your credit life it seems like a win-win to me!  Smiley Very Happy

Re: Pen Fed Personal Loan...blank check...

Thanks all.

 

I've got some work to do "outside of the Garden fence" next week, and while discussing various options with my local CU, I might see if they can and/or will offer a similar loan at a more attractive rate.

 

We shall see.  Smiley Happy

Re: Pen Fed Personal Loan...blank check...

Good Morning!

 

My mom received one of these checks.  How does she take advantage of this offer?  I know the check says to fill it out to herself for up to $25,000 and sign the back.  Does she just do this and deposit it as usual?  I know there will be a 7 day hold (at least).  Is there anything else she needs to do?

 

 

Thanks for any help.
