Item 5.    Other Events

           Effective October 1, 1995, Household Group, Inc. ("HGI"),
           a wholly-owned subsidiary of Household Finance Corporation
           ("HFC"), sold for cash and stock all the capital stock of
           its wholly-owned subsidiary, Alexander Hamilton Life
           Insurance Company of America ("AHLIC") to Jefferson-Pilot
           Corporation ("JP").  Prior to the closing of this
           transaction, HGI removed from AHLIC and retained all
           business, related assets and liabilities pertaining to
           AHLIC's credit life, accident and health, periodic payment
           and corporate-owned life insurance products so that
           effectively only the individual life and annuity product
           lines ("Transferred Business") were transferred to JP
           pursuant to this transaction.  At September 30, 1995,
           assets related to the Transferred Business totaled
           approximately $6 billion and consisted primarily of
           investment securities.  The purchase price for the
           Transferred Business is $575 million plus the net earnings
           of AHLIC from January 1, 1995 to the closing date, subject
           to a limitation on such earnings as to the attainment of
           a minimum statutory net worth by AHLIC as agreed to by the
           parties.

Item 7.    Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information and
           Exhibits

           (a)    Financial statements of business acquired.

                  Not applicable.

           (b)    Pro forma financial information.

                  Unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of income
                  of Household Finance Corporation and Subsidiaries for
                  the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and the
                  unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of
                  September 30, 1995 for Household Finance Corporation
                  and Subsidiaries giving effect to the pro forma
                  adjustments related to the sale of Alexander Hamilton
                  Life Insurance of America as described in Item 5
                  hereof.  The unaudited pro forma consolidated
                  statement of income of Household Finance Corporation
                  and Subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 1994
                  was included in the Current Report on Form 8-K dated
                  August 9, 1995.

The following tables present the historical unaudited consolidated
statement of income for Household Finance Corporation and
Subsidiaries ("HFC") for the nine months ended September 30, 1995
and the historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet for HFC as
of September 30, 1995 and the unaudited pro forma consolidated
statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 1995
and the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of
September 30, 1995 for HFC giving effect to the pro forma
adjustments related to the sale of the individual life and annuity
product lines of Alexander Hamilton Life Insurance Company of
America ("AHLIC") as described herein.  The pro forma consolidated
statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 1995
was prepared assuming the sale of the selected product lines of
AHLIC took place on January 1, 1995.  The pro forma adjustments for
the pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 1995
assume that the sale of the product lines of AHLIC occurred on
September 30, 1995.  HFC does not anticipate that the sale of the
Transferred Business will have a significant effect on results of
operations.  HFC does not expect to incur material charges or
credits as a result of the sale of the product lines of AHLIC on an
ongoing basis and has not reflected such in the pro forma
consolidated financial statements below.

For purposes of preparing the pro forma financial statements, HFC
has assumed the cash proceeds from the sale of the product lines of
AHLIC have been used to decrease senior and senior subordinated
debt.  The pro forma consolidated financial statements presented
below do not purport to represent what the results of operations or
financial position would have been had the pro forma adjustments
occurred on the dates referred to above or to be indicative of the
future results of operations or financial position of HFC.  The pro
forma adjustments are based on available information and certain
assumptions that HFC believes are reasonable.<PAGE>
