By applying the debt elimination techniques of bestselling author John Cummuta and the personal mentoring support of Prosper Inc., Marisa Larson of Silver Spring, Md., will pay off her credit card debt and a car loan in three years.

"I'd heard radio ads for Cummuta's program numerous times," Larson said. "After investigating it, I decided to order. I feel like the timing of doing this program couldn't have been better, as 13 of my colleagues were recently laid off due to budget constraints. I feel very fortunate to still have my job and it just reinforced the importance of living within my budget."

Larson said that Prosper's program and coaching has helped her do just that. "Through the program and with the support of my mentor, I'm following a budget, and using cash instead of credit cards," she said. "By following the plan, I should have all my credit cards and car paid off in about three years - much earlier than the 'normal' way and with a huge savings in interest payments."

Prosper combines the insights of Cummuta's Transforming Debt Into Wealth program with a one-to-one mentoring system that can help people like Larson eliminate, rather than just "manage," their debt. Larson has already eliminated $6,000 in debt.

"My goals of being debt free, affording a larger house for my family, and having fully funded retirement and college accounts now seem doable, where before they seemed out of reach," Larson said. "The main benefit of this program has been to reduce my stress about finances. I have my spending under control and I can see the debt-free light at the end of the tunnel."
