Hello, my name is Luke Ryan. I am in my mid-20s, and here’s a little about my situation:

I have picked all the wrong choices when it came to going down a career path and I honestly think that it’s for the better. Simply put, I am not the type of person that is meant for a nine to five. However, my current finacial situation tells me otherwise, and so, I have stuck with temporary work to come up with some cash. It’s all great and all, but now with the engine of my ’09 Subaru Forester has completely gave out, it has forced me to look for a new car.

I’m thinking about from the range of $2k to $4k for a new car. I was thinking about keeping the car and just installing a new engine, but most of the parts are already completely rusted and not really kept in great shape from the previous owners that it just seems more beneficial to scrap the car at a junkyard and use the money towards a new car and/or monthly bills. I am looking at a stay at home job, which I will talk about in the next paragraph. But I do want to bring up that I had a DUI back in 2015 and hadn’t had a car again until 2019. During the timeframe I was jumping from location to location and had to completely rely on walking, biking, and/or bus transit as my forms of transportation. When the summer of 2019 came around, I had some money to spend on a car. However, part of the DUI conviction was that I had to have an interlock in my car for the timespan of two years. And I had to have my parents help me out because the cost of having an interlock is absolutely absurd! I NEED to have a car in order for me to complete my interlock program that I am enrolled in and for me to go back to temp work. Now, I said in the previous paragraph that I wasn’t meant for a nine to five? Well hear me out.

I am looking into starting video game streaming through the streaming service, Twitch. It’s a highly competitive field for new fish that are trying to kick start their careers in the social media world. You have your entire spectrum of streamers, video game professionals, content creators, and personalities. It’s a highly competitive field, but I feel as though that I have a brand that I’m able to push to be apart of the wave. Being a streamer and/or content creator has been something that I’ve been passionate for for sometime since I was younger. It’s something that had inspired me to keep working a nine to five, so that I was able to save up some money to invest in.

I’ll keep this short. The problem is, is now with my car completely busted. I am forced to back peddle and have to fork out for a new car while still making payments. Meaning that I do in fact need the money for a new used car. But also, I want to try and get a good start on a career path that I’ve wanted for such an incredible amount of time, and so that I don’t have to go back to working a nine to five.

I am looking at $2 to $4k for a car replacement. And for help on starting my new business, I am looking at between $1k to $10k. It would be much appreciated!

Hi, my name is Anishia and I’m a first time mother. I have a 11 month old beautiful daughter who I love dearly and would do anything in this world for. Her birthday is next month and just when you think you have everything in order, something happens and you’re hit in the face with no warning. I was recently in a accident, yes we are ok my daughter wasn’t in the car with me, thank God but unfortunately my car is out of commission right now. It’s not totaled, but does need a lot of work done. Before you ask, yes I have insurance so it will cover it but of course like every insurance theirs a deductible. I do work, but as a single mother whose daughters first birthday is right around the corner and my bills of course, it’s hard for me to even give them the deductible let alone try to get back and forth to work. I’m not the type of person to go around asking for money, it hurts my pride, but at this point I’m desperate. Anything helps and is greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance and God bless. https://paypal.me/anishia88

Hey everyone, my Name is Tommy Lee and am asking for help to get to my goal of 2000$ To help for a new car. Last year I was really struggling after my wreck, but still needed a job for my family and I . I did what I could, and worked just as hard. I decided to try and Uber to work and back (ALMOST 50$ A DAY!) I know, probably not the best idea.. This year put me in the same loop as the year before, with the Virus hitting.. and I’m here asking for as much help as I can get. My credit is in the low 510’s and cannot get a loan for a new car. But I’m not gonna give just yet! here’s the PayPal as well. Even receiving emails with kind words would help!

If anyone can help me reset this year we’ve had it would mean the world to me..

-With love and hope, Tommy

When it rains it POURS. 

Where do I begin?

Last year, I finished up my grad program, and moved back to the state where I’m from. I had a car that was functional, not the most good looking car, but it got me to work and from A to B.  The car got totaled at a stop light, with no injuries thank goodness. But I had to get another car. 

Enter my Mini Cooper.

I had always wanted one, but never had the means. So I bought one off a lady who was selling it for $1000 cheaper than the dealer, and I loved it. Until one day… the engine oil pressure light came on. I took it to the dealer to see what I could do to repair it. They said it would be $3700 to fix the oil leaks!  I took the laundry list of parts, and ordered them myself, and took a weekend to install them. $400 and two days of work later, I saved quite a bit of money!

But then , after eight years of marriage I got divorced. We tried marriage therapy for a year, but it wasn’t panning out.  We left on fragile, but good terms, though she ended up taking all of my savings with her which is a meager $2000.

Then the therapist tells me that my insurance didn’t cover the costs of her appointments. And that I owe her $1500. 

The plan was to save as much money as I could in order to move to a bigger city where my degree would be more marketable. So now I’m living with my parents to save money. I still haven’t been able to pay off the ex wife entirely OR the therapist.

 Commuting 90 miles round trip to work, this Mini Cooper is the only thing thats keeping me afloat. 

That is until the oil pressure light came on again. And an Engine Malfunction message. Turns out the Turbocharger is out and the oil valve solenoid isn’t building pressure. This is a whopping $5200 fix. I priced it out and I could do it over a weekend with $1000. It’s not pressing, so I could save for a few weeks and get it done. I paid for the dealer to diagnose it and they told me what needed to be done, and since the oil light has been off!

Until yesterday. When my car overheated (It has coolant), the Oil pressure light came on (It has oil), my battery won’t charge (Which I replaced), and when I arrived home, started to squeal, which made me do some research after promptly turning it off, and find out it’s probably the Timing chain that needs the whole thing replaced, so I can’t even drive it to the shop.

This car has been nickel and diming me for months… and with the ex, and the therapist to pay off, I don’t have the means for any of it. 

After a few calculations, I need $1800 just to break even, let alone have any savings to leave, or pay any of the current payments. 

When I am done with these repairs I am selling this car, and getting something reliable. Then saving my money and moving on, but I just can’t seem to get a leg up! Any help would be appreciated.

Hi everyone. I really don’t like asking for help but I could really use some. I have asked family and friends but unfortunately no one can help me currently. I have applied for loans but I keep getting denied because of my credit. I have tried doing odd jobs but the issue is I am trying to use my car for work and my children only. My car has a very bad oil leak, and it will cost around 600 from my trusted mechanic. I do work, but that only covers rent, food, bills, and necessities. I can hardly ever afford anything extra and this is a big bill that I am having a very difficult time trying to get the money for. The longer I put this off I feel like the issue will get worse and far more expensive. I am not sure what else to do. In the picture I have posted this is the amount of oil that comes out daily. I can’t afford to keep buying oil every day either. This is a very stressful situation i go through daily because I am praying my car doesn’t break on the way to work or while I have my kids. I work full time and I try to do anything extra if I have the ability to. Like I said before, I’ve tried really everything I can think of to get some assistance. If anyone can do anything to help it would be so much appreciated. I need about 600 dollars, this is the cheapest quote I got for the closest area that I live in. I have a mechanic that has been helping me for a while with my cars and I fully trust that he is giving me a good deal. He does amazing work and he has never over charged me or caused any other issues with my vehicles. My kids will be starting school soon, they are 6 and 5, and I need to be able to have a reliable vehicle in order to get them to school and me to work on time. My work has a pretty good attendance policy but the kicker is that we have time that we can use. I don’t have that much time left because of emergencies forcing me to leave work early. If you go over on your time you get terminated. That’s also another worry that I have is breaking down on my way to work and using all my time. I love my job and what I do, they were open and busy during covid 19 and I am so grateful for being employed through this pandemic. Please, if you can help I would be forever in your debt. Thank you and have a wonderful day!

The city of Oakland took my vehicle during COVID 19 now I don’t have a vehicle & I need one for when work starts. They towed my car charged my card and wouldn’t give my car back because I didn’t have enough.  They took my 500 dollars and the fees kept growing so they kept my car.

Hello everyone. My name is Jared c and I am 20. I am writing you today, because my tire has decided to explode on the highway and I do not have the money to fix it right now. I honestly could probably beg a few family members and come up with the money for one tire but it’s not just that. My car is always having problems but I can afford getting a car right now. I also can’t afford my phone bill that’s due in 3 days and i can barely Feed myself right now. I do have a few things to survive on though. I’m not starving. I was almost making it buy with the little money I make but it’s been hard lately and it’s just made my mental state so bad. My anxiety is through the roof lately and I’ve been trying to experiment between meds with my doctor but they aren’t working and I’m trying so hard to remain calm and be okay, but I’m losing grasp on being okay so I’m asking for help. I have a car that I could fix up but by now after how long it’s been sitting I’m sure it’ll cost more then fixing the one that I have. I know tired aren’t very expensive but my car likes to shit on me every couple of weeks with a new problem. I ask God to help me constantly. I keep praying for a miracle. I watch two children for one family every day and I take their children with me to go let the neighbors dogs out every day for extra money which is how I’ve been getting by in the passed but with my asthma medicine and bills I can’t afford to do all of this on my own. I keep trying to keep my spirits up but just when I make things better in my life something breaks down or gets ruined and I don’t have the money to replace these essential things that I have to have. My mom is Also struggling a lot too. I’d love to be able to help her in any kind of way but right now I can’t even afford to take her to dinner. If you don’t have money to spare keep it I can manage, but if you can help please do. I’m really struggling and stuck right now. Thank you all for reading my message and I hope you have a wonderful blessed day.

Hello, so my name is Quentin I am currently 23 years old, live in the Pacific northwest, I have always grown up in a poor family/ living situation. My mother was in and out of my life growing up as a kid for most of it being involved in drugs and the whole lifestyle that comes with that, she went to prison for quite awhile which left my dad alone to take care of 3 kids and raise them by himself which I could imagine being in his shoes was not easy raising 3 boys alone. I was born with a cleft lip and always got picked on in school and bullied so it made growing up that much more difficult never really having friends and always being laughed at and stared and and called names because of my cleft lip was very hard and definitely had a traumatic impact on me growing up. Once I got older and became more mature and realized it was something I couldn’t change and had to get used to it it became alot easier to deal with. Once I turned 18 I got a job as soon as I could because not having alot as a kid definitely made me appreciate everything that I was able to buy myself from working hard and earning it the real way. But all of my jobs I’ve had have all been temporary it seems like everyone I’ve worked for never wanted to take the time to see all the potential I can bring to the table and let me go after a short period. To this day I still have the most trouble just getting the most basic jobs you can think of, and coming from a family that has always been struggling financially or just scraping by, makes it hard to live day to day life as I cannot just go ask mommy or daddy to pay for whatever or give me money for whatever i want/ need so just getting thru normal every day life has been a definite struggle since I’ve been an adult, the first car i had i bought myself from saving up from working. Only to loose it months later in a car collision that was the other persons involved fault, and not being mobile with a vehicle makes it 10 times harder to find work, I currently have a car. 1997 honda civic but it is not running at the moment due to a rod that was thrown from one of the engine cylinders, so I just have a car with no engine and no source of income and no outside financial help to fix any of my problems and cannot get a job because I have no source of transportation, all of my family members are either to far away to help me with rides daily or just simply cannot or will not do it because our schedules would conflict with one another, so here I am asking for anybody’s to just take a chance and help me start getting my life on track so I can hopefully be a working man with a decent working vehicle to get back and forth to work everyday, I keep faith in my heart that something good will come my way soon enough as I feel I am a genuinely humble human being and just want to live my life like the next person does and be content with where I am in life and not have to constantly stress or worry about buying food, or clothes or even deodorant for Pete’s sake. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope at least one person can understand my situation.

Hi everyone!

My name is Amara, and I am a recent college graduate. I just graduated in May from an HBCU with my Bachelors degree in computer science. Just recently, I was in an accident which totaled my car. It was a car that I had just purchased myself during summer 2019. Due to the car being financed through my bank, I was forced to give up the car as collateral while I received a settlement from the insurance company. Since I did not have gap insurance, I was forced to continue making payments on a car that I longer had. I have finally paid off the remaining balance of the loan, but am still in need of a new vehicle as I have not had one at all since the accident.

I am on this site asking for gracious donations to help me be able to purchase another car. I am not looking to buy anything fancy or new, just something reliable with good mileage. I am currently unemployed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but I have a job offer to be starting full time work in September. I really need help with funds to be able to be a car mainly so that I may be able to have a reliable vehicle to get to work when I start in September. Not having a vehicle during these past few months has been extremely difficult to say the least. Being in that car accident was a very stressful situation for me and took a bit of a toll on my finances. Additionally, not having a vehicle and the fact that my first car that I ever purchased was gone was honestly very depressing for me for a while, but I have since learned to accept it and find ways to work around my obstacle. Although I am coping, it would mean a lot to me if you supported me.

Again, due to COVID-19 it has been extremely hard for me to make the funds that I need to purchase a vehicle. I have saved up a couple thousand dollars so far, but I ask for $3,000 in donations to add to that. Again, these funds will help me to be able to purchase a reliable vehicle to get to and from work when I start working full-time in September. Please keep in mind that no donation is too small. I appreciate all the help I can get financially. Thank you so much for considering me and my situation! Much love.

Hi, I didn’t see anything stating that this is supposed to be a formatted text or anything, so I’m hoping more casual is fine.

My name is Kilauni; I’m 19 years old from Texas. I’m looking for money for several things, but right now the most important to me is my car. Last week, the tire broke while I was taking a turn and I havent been able to drive it since (besides taking it to a parking lot nearby to sit). I was able to stay with a friend, but only for a short amount of time because of her living situation. So now I’m back to my car, stuck in the same parking lot unless someone can give me a ride somewhere. I guess I am looking for a little pity because I’m looking for money, but I’m not looking for pity over being homeless. I’ve been living in my car for a few months because my parents kicked me out for not taking any college classes this past semester along with some other petty rules- so I’ve gotten the hang of things and don’t mind it too much.

The problem now is that I can’t make it to work unless I can rely on someone else to take and pick me up, as I don’t have money for Ubers; I also really need any money I get from here on out to fix my own car. This has made my life incredibly stressful, especially since my car is the roof over my head at night and I’m stuck in one spot, unable to drive it. I have a lot of other things to take care of, such as payments for the car still (I’ve only had it since February) and insurance, hospital bills, bail, gas/food/other necessities, etc. which is why it’s so hard for me to save up money for situations like this.

A friend was able to take me to AutoZone on Sunday and they said based on the pictures I showed them that it looked like a ball joint or bent tire rod most likely, but that I’d have to take it to a shop to get it fixed. When I called the shop just a few minutes down the road from my car, they said the most specific range they could give for either problem is about $100-500, depending on which problem it is, what parts they actually need to use/fix, etc. I’ve tried a couple different things to make some more money to be honest, like OnlyFans and asking for donations (along with anything I could come up with for the past few days), but have continuously come up empty handed.

I’m not sure how much is a good amount to ask for, so I suppose $500 just for good measure. But honestly any amount would help greatly, I have almost nothing right now. I get paid in a couple days, but since I’ve been missing a lot of shifts lately I’m not expecting more than $100 for this paycheck. Anything extra that I don’t need to use for repairing my car would at least help me get back on my feet and hopefully stay afloat for a while, as I do have a lot of other financial things to take care of. But whatever I would be able to get I would be extremely grateful for, even just $50. I appreciate anyone who’ll end up taking the time to read through my situation, and hopefully help me out.
