My father insisted I study accounting in college.  He said I’d always find work.  He didn’t know it could eventually be outsourced overseas.

Which is exactly what happened in my last job. I had become a specialist in one area of cost analysis.  And I really hated it.  Really really did not enjoy my job. And really wasn’t interested in anything else in the field.  For months I went on interviews, but my lack of interest probably was obvious.

And it’s not like I had some big nest egg to fall back on.  I got behind on rent – OK, so Buckhead is expensive – and credit card bills, and still couldn’t go back to something I didn’t like in the first place. I came to terms with the idea of retraining for a different career.  

But because my bills got ahead of me, I got lumped into the bad credit column. And with bad credit, where would I get money for classes?  

So I took a long hard look at my car. Not that I was going to resell it.  But it was an asset with value — value I could leverage.  So, my need for fast cash translated into a car title loan. I filled out an online application with Atlanta Car Title Loans.  It’s nothing like going to a car title loans store downtown.

The funds transferred in hours, and I was signed up for classes in a day.  I don’t miss my old job and career, but I’m glad I have the skills to assess value.  The bank car title loans solution to my cash flow problem was the smartest move I could make.
