Hubby has been dealing with this for over a year, only instead of clients, he waits to hear from recruiters and managers about a job. When is it OK to follow up again? Is it even OK especially for those related to finding a job? There is no clear etiquette.When you don't hear back within a certain amount of time, what happens?

Using your deficit list, contact your creditors. Many will be willing to work with you to skip a payment, lower interest, pay interest only for a month or two, or offer a number of other options. Maybe they won't, but it won't hurt to ask. (Used judiciously, "accidentally" mentioning the possibility of bankruptcy, sometimes yields major power.) Adjust your deficit list accordingly.

Take on a second job for the short term. Have a garage sale. Sell an asset. Rent something out. Consider funds from savings, 401(k), insurance, and even friends. (Note: DO NOT cash in a 401(k).) If you rent, see if labor might substitute for part or all of the amount. Consider a reverse mortgage, equity loan on your home or car, or signature loan from a credit union. Please do not consider this unless bankruptcy is the only other option since in the long run an additional loan will just make matters worse. As an absolutely final resort, consider bankruptcy but not before seeking formal financial counseling. Research other means of reducing your budget.
