He had a job at the time, and I thought he would hold up his end of the bargain to make the payments. I have had to borrow money to make the payments when he couldn't. Should I let the truck be repos- sessed and pay the balance of $10,000, or try to make additional payments? We have struggled with this for over a year. I will never again cosign a loan with anyone. I am almost at retirement age, and I need to be saving money instead of paying on a truck for a young man who has not proven to be responsible. -- Ginny, Texas Dear Ginny: Oh, my. Unfortunate- ly, you have just learned a very diffi- cult lesson. For the benefit of my read- ers, let me explain why you should never cosign a loan. The reason a per- son needs a cosigner is because he pre- sents a risk so great not even an expe- rienced, professional lender is willing to take it. There's your clue. It's a risk you cannot afford to take, either. If you really want to help a borrow- er, make it a gift. Then, if you happen to get any repayment, consider it a bonus. OK, back to your deadbeat grandson. It's time to put a stop to this nonsense. Get the keys to the truck, clean it up, and put a For Sale sign on it. Call the bank, and tell them what you are doing. If the amount you can sell it for is not enough to pay off the loan, you will need to come up with the bal- ance in cash. While an expensive les- son, this will be less dam- aging to your credit than a voluntary repossession. As for your grandson, the most loving thing you can do is turn this into a lesson he will not soon forget. Require him to sign a promissory note for the full amount he owes you. If he doesn't have the cash to start making payments, let him know he will be working for you to pay off the debt. If you let him walk away from this, he's not likely to learn the life lessons it can teach him. Dear Mary: I have been a Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate fan of yours for several years. We have paid off one credit card and are working on the next one. I treasure all of your emails -- they help us so much. My husband works two jobs, and it's taking a toll on both of us. But we keep in mind that getting out of debt is why we are doing this. God bless, and thank you so much. -- Emilie, South Car- olina Dear Emilie: Don't grow discouraged. Remember this is not forever, it's only a season. Soon you will be debt-free. Keep going. I can't wait to get your letter telling me you've made it and that it was worth every long hour and diffi- cult day.
