In the early 1990s we experienced a recession not quite as bad as the great recession of 2012 but painful for many nonetheless. Back then I did live radio five nights a week on this one subject (credit repair) broadcast out of Miami. The program, like this book, was called Credit Warfare and focused each night on a new credit repair or debt collection issue.

Many people listened nightly on their ride home from work. It was the highest rated program on AM radio during drive time because so many people needed help. Doctors, lawyers, judges, secretaries, police officers, nurses, truck drivers etc… listened to Credit Warfare and used the information to pull their lives back together.

A superior court judge became a federal judge. A police lieutenant became a captain. Others got new jobs and started businesses. They were now able to get the best rates on insurance, homes, cars, credit cards and so on because they were trained to handle their credit repair / debt collection issues themselves.

Today more than 61 million Americans have bad credit with another 30 – 40 million classified as bruised to sub-prime. I knew things were getting bad back in 2007 when I started receiving emails from those who listened to me on the radio or came to seminars 15 years earlier asking for help again.

As was the case then, you can re-take control of your financial life without a credit repair company, credit counseling or in most cases an attorney. You can stop the creditors, collectors and lawyers with little effort and regain some sense of serenity in very short order if you know what your rights are and how to enforce them.You truly can remove any negative information from your credit report on your own legally with minimal time invested.

Credit Warfare will provide you with the knowledge you need backed up with legal references, resources, a plan of action and step by step instruction to deal with any credit or debt collection issue regardless of whether you are a novice or experienced consumer. Most importantly Credit Warfare will help you sleep at night knowing you have the power to fix the issues at hand and protect yourself from any further attacks.

Practical paralegal text that covers the basics of bankruptcy practice, debt creation, secured transactions, the law of liens, and debt collection practices.

Features of The ABCs of Debt:

Completely up-to-date coverage of both bankruptcy law and the related topics of debt creation, debt collection, and the discharge or reorganization of debt in bankruptcy. Debt creation and debt collection are covered in detail before addressing bankruptcy, putting the entire debtor/creditor relationship into a broader, more realistic context. Bankruptcy law is presented in a clear, readable format that focuses on the main concepts rather than the minutia of the law. The bankruptcy process is addressed sequentially, as it arises in actual cases, rather than piecemeal. Not only teaches students about the law but also how to apply the law. By stressing the how-to of debtor/creditor law, this text provides the student that critical bridge between simply knowing about a subject and being able to function as a paralegal in the office where debtor-creditor work is done.In addition to examples and forms, Parsons uses realistic case studies to enable students to apply the knowledge and skills they are learning. Forms for use with these case studies included on a CD with the book. The text provides a step-by-step instruction for completing a bankruptcy petition and the challenging OBF 22A for the Chapter 7 means test and OBF 22C for the Chapter 13 determination of commitment period and projected disposable income. Helpful pedagogy includes: Forms and illustrations Examples Case excerpts and summaries Learn-by-doing exercises Problems/Hypotheticals Ethical queries Key terms/marginal definitions Review questions

Sovereign debt is a complex and highly topical area of law and this work represents a new main reference book on the subject bringing together contributions from world leading practitioners, scholars and regulators.

Divided into five parts the book opens with a part on restructuring which analyses contractual provisions and the role of institutions such as the International Monetary Fund. The second part, on enforcement, considers the position of a sovereign as a defendant analyzing the availability of special immunities and matters of defense and arbitration pertinent to sovereign debt.

Part three of the book is concerned with complicating factors such as economic, political or banking crises and how these relate and complicate the task of addressing an unsustainable sovereign debt stock. In this section the particular and topical issues concerned with restructuring in a monetary union are explained.

The fourth part provides economists’ explanations of why and how sovereigns borrow and the causes of a sovereign debt, which enriches understanding by providing context to the purely legal aspects of the work. The book closes with a section which covers proposed reform to sovereign debt systems.

Dedicated to the leading expert Lee Buchheit, this work contains comprehensive and rigorous analysis on sovereign debt management which no specialist should be without.

Europe is suffering from a bipolar economic disorder; one symptom of which is a sovereign debt crisis. The media have divided the continent into two groups of nations: center and periphery, not by geography but by credit ratings on national debt. European Debt Crisis: The Sovereign Debt Crisis – A Memorandum from the Periphery is a critical investigation of the root causes of the crisis, and the often misguided policy choices made to ‘resolve’ it.

Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz addresses how regional debt contagion in Europe compares with regional financial crises elsewhere, while former Argentine Minister for Economics Roberto Lavagna provides a poignant comparative analysis with his own country’s experience. Crucially and uniquely, Portuguese, Greek, and Irish economists provide hard-hitting case studies that offer the perspective of the European ‘periphery’.

A much-needed book offering a heterodox economic perspective on the causes, symptoms, and solutions of the biggest economic issue currently facing Europe.

Wealth Building Software

Product Features

• Cpoyright 1995

Shipping imperfect software is like going into debt. When you incur debt, the illusion of doing things faster can lead to exponential growth in the cost of maintaining software. Software debt takes five major forms: technical, quality, configuration management, design, and platform experience. In today’s rush to market, software debt is inevitable. And that’s okay—if you’re careful about the debt you incur, and if you quickly pay it back.

In Managing Software Debt, leading Agile expert Chris Sterling shows how understanding software debt can help you move products to market faster, with a realistic plan for refactoring them based on experience. Writing for all Agile software professionals, Sterling explains why you’re going into software debt whether you know it or not—and why the interest on that debt can bring projects to a standstill. Next, he thoroughly explains each form of software debt, showing how to plan for it intelligently and repay it successfully. You’ll learn why accepting software debt is not the same as deliberate sloppiness, and you’ll learn how to use the software debt concept to systematically improve architectural agility. Coverage includes

Managing tensions between speed and perfection and recognizing that you’ll inevitably ship some “not quite right” code Planning to minimize interest payments by paying debts quickly Building architectures that respond to change and help enterprises run more smoothly Incorporating emergent architecture concepts into daily activities, using Agile collaboration and refactoring techniques Delivering code and other software internals that reduce the friction of future change Using early, automated testing to move past the “break/fix” mentality Scripting and streamlining both deployment and rollback Implementing team configuration patterns and knowledge sharing approaches that make software debt easier to repay Clearing away technical impediments in existing architectures Using the YAGNI (“you ain’t gonna need it”) approach to strip away unnecessary complexity

Using this book’s techniques, senior software leadership can deliver more business value; managers can organize and support development teams more effectively; and teams and team members can improve their performance throughout the development lifecycle.
