Is it bad to have multiple credit cards?

Is it bad to have multiple credit cards?

I was watching TV this morning and this lady said if you have a credit card with a balance owed on it you should ONLY pay the minimum balance each month. I always thought you would want to charge something and pay it off as soon as possible. Also, the lady said to close your credit accounts as soon as the card is payed off. But I read somewhere that having multiple lines of credit open will actually increase your credit score. As long as your aren't maxed out on all the credit cards. So lets say I have a balance of $650 on my credit card. Would it be better to pay the minimum due each month (which is $35) or should I pay it off as soon as I can? And what if I have 4 credit cards in my name. Only 2 of them have a balance owed and the others are paid off. Would it be best to keep these cards open and continue using them occasionally or should I close the accounts that I don't owe anything on?

Student Consolidation Loans: Good or Bad idea?

Recently the reality stick has hit me hard: with the current set up i have, i'd owe about 400$ a month in student loans (both federal and private). That sucks pretty much. But this is also because i'm not exactly full time in my career-type job. I'm lucky in that i get to go back to school and happy deferment land, but it gets me thinking that a consolidation would be kinda awesome. They warn that it'll fix the rate at the average, and if i'm not paying so much against principle i'll be paying back longer, but if have the one interest rate, and pay back as if they were split (say i'd only owe 65$/mo consolidated, but around 200$/mo for just the federal) Wouldn't i be applying more to principle, but without the same monthly requirement? Am i wrong? ANY feedback is very appreciated!"

Moved out of state on a defaulted auto loan. Theft?

So a friend of mine used me as a reference on her auto loan (without my permission) and the bank that financed the car called me today and said that she hadn't been making the payments and the loan was in default. (Thankfully I didn't co-sign.) Here's the thing. She moved out of state, all the way across the country. (From Utah to Maine) I doubt the bank is going to go all the way to Maine to repo the car, and I'm sure she isn't going to drive all the way back to turn it in. Will they consider the car stolen? I'm sure she'll get flagged if she goes to do her yearly registration. She has changed her phone number also, so they have no way to contact her."

How do mortgage companies verify employment?

I am trying to refinance my mortgage. The rates are so low that doing this will actually save me hundreds each month. However...I am self employed (vp of an s-corp). I provided the bank with the name and address of the company and the company's phone number. They never asked if i am self employed. How do they verify employment? Do they search public records or do they just send a form and make a phone call? Also, not to long ago, my company could not pay my salary so I was on unemployment for 8 weeks. Now I am back to work. Will they search for this? Otherwise perfect credit. No problems with debt to income etc."

Bankruptcy and taxes?

OK. I think we know that back taxes owed are not dischargeable with a bankruptcy (CH7). I want to know if the bankruptcy process results in an organized and reasonable repayment of taxes plan (both federal and state)? I am looking at $60K in UNSECURED debt and about $21K in both state and fed taxes. The state has already started garnishing wages and the feds have placed a credit lien on my file. I have had spotty employment for the last three years and have just now (last month) landed a steady"" full time job earning $3360 per month"
