   I can’t believe this. It is pity these people do not know how to manage own finance.

    Well, it just goes to show you that it can happen to anyone. What is worse is that most people think they can work their way out of any problem, instead of preparing for these life events.

    Why are there so manay foreclosures???

    Banks are willing to grant grace periods, forebarances and other solutions for homeowners facing foreclosure.

    Stopping foreclosure is easy, if you know what to do.

    If anyone needs help gettting the bank to work with you on an alternative to foreclosure, it’s ok to contact me.

    Celebrities in foreclosure? Sorry, but “wah.” (Sarcastic). Most of the people on that list made terrible decisions. Holyfield was making $30 million a fight. Don’t cry for him Argentina (or America).

    Bottom line, it is the average homeowner who suffers because prices, for example, in Los Angeles and Orange Counties, swung so wildly that the lows are so irrational. Thus, foreclosure becomes an option for those who would never go bankrupt or whatever.

    I might tend to agree with you.

    No one is immune from foreclosure. If you are facing foroeclosure, you are not alone.

29. Loan modification on February 10, 2009 3:45 am

    I had Evander come to my site or at least a spammer with his actual address. He did not answer his phone so I figured t to be a scam and now it may have been him seeing this post.

30. Arizona Loan Modifiers on February 16, 2009 11:10 pm

    Yeah, we get a few “celebrities” submitting the form on our site every now-and-then too.

31. Omelyn on February 20, 2009 7:08 am

    I think this true. Nice articles.

32. Loan Modification on February 20, 2009 2:56 pm

    It reads like the next Cash 4 Gold superbowl commercial, with all of these celebrities having to sell their gold to stay in their ridiculous mansions.

33. Government Loan Modification on March 27, 2009 8:45 pm

    Nicely said, I enjoy the time that it took to research and write. Great work

34. Sam on April 28, 2009 2:21 pm

    Well none of these articles are telling us how many homes they own or if these are the main residences. They are not even close to what the middle class America is going through.

    Many wealthy people let properties foreclose so they can aquire another one or just to dump it. Look at Trump and how many times his “corporations” have filed bankruptcy.

35. Contacts on April 29, 2009 5:21 pm

    why does anyone need 104 rooms?

36. Loan Modification Attorneys on April 30, 2009 9:12 am

    These celebrities should have hired an attorney. Maybe they would have saved their homes.

37. Sophia on April 30, 2009 4:43 pm

    Wow even celebrities got their home foreclosures. Wish I could afford their homes. I will be sure to check that out! Also- I found this training that might help as well. http://www.shortsalebizinabox.com. Keep up the posts! I enjoy reading them!

38. micky on May 12, 2009 8:48 pm

    In response to the comment below.
    Yes even the celebrities are not bright enough to live within their means. Just like us poor people that have homes that would be considered a garage shack for many of these homes. Unless we were smart enough to live within our means and keep our shacks.

    This just shows that even the elite of our society WILL be affected by the foreclosure epedemic.

    mental note, i should edit before posting.

41. celebrites need to help middle class on June 13, 2009 9:18 pm

    Called living above your means . Celebrities had enough money to pay off there homes . instead they keep spending $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ . Celebrities only want the FANS to bail them out . Since the fans are the ones who made the celebrities rich from the beginning.

42. davidd on June 14, 2009 6:59 pm

    Living within or below your means advice only good until you no longer have a means. Loose the income stream at any depth and your in for a life style change. There are another 3million unemployed and another 4 million homes in the foreclosure for the coming months. We wanted change? we getting it.

43. loan modification help on June 24, 2009 3:56 pm

    There are no exceptions. Many people are hit by this economic turmoil. Even celebrities have to find their way out and modify their loans or look for some alternatives to ease up the tension.

44. robert on July 8, 2009 10:07 am

    No your right Jeff Smith and I have both worked with lenny. He is a huge idiot. He throws his assets around to try and get people to work for him for free. If you dont want to lose your house maybe you should ditch your gulf stream jet or phantom limo. He tried to get us to do a modification for him for free on the promise that he has plenty of money? He did the same thing to the people printing his magazine. Except they printed them. I think he has over 25 open law suits against him and even robbed his mom. You can read all about it on espn they have a huge article on what an asshole lenny is. Trust me when I say that your deeds come back to you and in this case hes losing the deed

45. Loan Modification on July 14, 2009 1:37 pm

    interesting information, thank you

46. Mortgage Loan modifications Lady on July 28, 2009 6:18 am

    There are many people who take advantage of peoples’ naivite. I wonder when all these mess will be cleaned up.

47. 100% Mortgage on August 14, 2009 9:56 am

    If they cannot pay their mortgage and get their finances right with all that money, what chances do we have?!

48. Terry on August 16, 2009 6:32 am

    Snoop Dogg owes Calif. over $300K in unpaid taxes. Ruben Studdard is facing foreclosure. Chris Tucker owes the state of California $3,594,409 for four years of unpaid taxes. Here we go…again..MC Hammer owes Calif. over $600K in unpaid taxes.

49. Equity Release on August 24, 2009 3:18 am

    That’s a lot of unpaid taxes.

50. mobilekaren on September 7, 2009 12:13 pm

52. Free Loan Modification Kit on October 1, 2009 4:58 pm

    So many celebrities nowadays seem to be living well beyond their means, and sooner or later it all catches up to them… Its such a shame

53. Dubai villas on October 19, 2009 2:37 am

    They may be just like you and me deep inside but when you get a glimpse of celebrity homes it’s like they’re in a whole other world.

54. Mortgages&Money on October 19, 2009 11:01 am

    It is a shame for everyone, we all come and go the same way, some of us just get luckier..
