Need Money for Groceries & Rent

Hello,

I recently completed 90 days of rehab for drug and alcohol addiction. I have battled with this disease for most of my life. My fiancé died very suddenly 7 years ago, and that’s when I lost everything and my life really began to spiral out of control. Until recently, I was somehow always able to continue working & paying my bills.

I almost died this past year. In order to save my life, I left my jobs (3 of them) and went out of state for treatment. I am 3 1/2 months sober now. I’ve had 26 months sober in the past; I was blessed with this time through working the steps of alcoholics anyonymous, doing what my sponsor told me to, being of service to others, and relying upon God.

Since I was unable to work while being in treatment, all of my bills (car, phone, insurance, credit cards) have stacked up immensely. I’ve called all my creditors to make them aware of my current circumstances and have just had to let much of this go for now.

I moved into a sober living home, as I’m afraid to go back to my city, where there is a lot of temptation and old triggers. I’ve built up a strong support network where I am at and am trying to do what’s best for my recovery and to start fresh.

I have no money to pay rent or buy groceries at this point (or pay any of the above bills). All of my savings are gone. I have about $30 to my name right now (would be happy to share a screenshot of my bank account for proof). I’ve been aggressively applying for jobs out here…I’m looking for any work at all, no matter how big or small. I’m fighting for my life and trying to get back to being a productive member of society. I’ve always been a hard worker & have never begged for money before. I just need some help getting by for the next month as I continue to look for work. My rent is $1,000 and I don’t need to eat very much.

Any help that you could provide would be greatly appreciated. I’m happy to send more info or details if you would like. This is a genuine plight for help.

Thank you you for taking the time to read and in advance for any help you can provide, no amount is too small.

Very Sincerely,

Need help for financial trouble after unexpected vet bills

Hello all, I’m a college student currently staying in my student apartment with my service dog. I have debilitating OCD and anxiety that often renders me frozen and cause frequent extreme panic attacks. My cocker spaniel, has been trained to help me through this and he is truly the only reason I’m able to get through each day and manage to get anything done. (I promise I am taking good care of him, the photo I’ve attached is his sleeping crate where he feels the most comfortable, he doesn’t like sleeping anywhere else and I do not keep him in there all day.) Recently he has developed a skin issue that leads to excessive scratching and chewing on himself. I’ve spent months making all the necessary changes such a with his diet and living spaces, his shampoo, food oils and everything. Last week I had to take him to the vet again as it has gotten very bad. He has chewed off his fur completely in many area and it’s not growing back instead he’s leaving wounds and gashes on himself by all the scratching and chewing and his fur is thinning out. The vet gave him a checkthrough and determined that he’s also unable to stop scratching psychologically, she gave him an injection that he needs another two doses of to limit his need to scratch excessively and so far it seems to be working and he hasn’t opened up any new wounds this week. Unfortunately, this came at a big price. The initial appointment came to a total of $377. Each injection costs $140+ a $45 consultation fee (total of $185) which he has to go for twice more. This brings his vet total to $747 this month.

My student apartment costs me $207 a week which totals to $828. This does not include any basic necessities. I am working as well as studying and don’t have more time to take on another job and also am unable to in regards to my mental health. I’m living paycheck to paycheck and this month I no longer have enough to cover my rent. I work 30 hours a week on minimum wage as well as studying full-time and make $220 a week/$880 a month which is usually just enough to cover my rent. I love my dog more than anything and without him I certainly would not even be here. I desperately want and need him to get better but I don’t have enough money to pay for both the vet treatment and my rent. Right now I’m unsure of what to do. I’ve never asked for money before but I’m truly desperate right now. I’m not asking at all for any more than I need just enough to cover the vet bills and my rent for this month. I hope you could consider donating even a small amount I would be so grateful and it would help out immensely. Thank you so much.

Lost my best friend to suicide. Restarting my business with a campaign in dedication to him

When I was 21 I started a clothing company. I knew school was not going to be the route for me at a young age . I worked construction during the day and ran my clothing brand at night. After a year passed, my clothes were featured on the back of celebrities and I was on my way to becoming self-employed.

3 years later, I decided to take it a step further, it would be great to see my best friend who was there from the start to have a business too. He helped come up with the name and was basically my life consultant and a trusted person I brought along to networking events and other events such as concerts and pop-ups as well. He had been through a lot in his life and never wanted credit for anything from me. We spent a lot of time together. I helped him deal with DUI case . He was short of money and didn’t live in the best financial situations and I lended small amounts to him. He would always pay back on time even if it meant him not eating for the day. We both had the motivation to make it work and we both knew we had each other’s backs. There was many nights we would cry in each other’s arms hugging because we knew it was a big jump for us but we knew we could make it together .we were like yin-yang when it came to business. I was a creative mastermind and he was a logistical powerhouse that audited everything.

We both decided that we would go into business together. He was a smart guy and was Saavy at things that I wasn’t. We both decided to start a cannabis media company. Then shortly after we knew we should move to a legalized state, so we decided Vegas. Something always pulled us to move there, so we did it. Him , his girlfriend , and myself we moved to Vegas. Even if it wasn’t the most financially secured moved, we knew with a leap of faith that we had each other.

6 months later, he took his life, then his girlfriend took her life 3 days later. They dealt with alcohol issues and I was right in the middle of it some nights. I was not aware of how deep the issue really was and myself as well as the families believe they may have been fighting more demons then we imagined. I’m still not sure what to think to this day. All I know is that if it wasn’t for my girlfriend I met out here taking me in, I would be homeless right now until I had enough to move back home across the country.

Something has been pulling at me to stay here. I’ve been running into random signs that he’s watching me. I currently have two fortunes from fortune cookies that have both our lucky and spiritual number on them. That say things that encourage me to keep pushing. I can’t look back now. We had many discussions about how Vegas was such a spiritual move for us and I’m starting to see why. While my life was uprooted from me, I decided to release some new designs for my clothing brand and they’ve been tremendously successful, but now I know it’s my mission to do this in dedication of him. I work 4 different hustles. I work a day job, I flip stuff at garage sales of ebay , I’m working on an online writing career, and more.

My goal is to receive an investment of $3,000 to get my brand up and running again. I’ve structured a marketing plan and roll out in dedication to him that would raise money for suicide awareness and underprivileged youth. My mind and my heart are in it for the right reasons now and I have celebrities interested in the cause. Unfortunately, asking them for funds could be a conflict of interest. I don’t want to spoil this opportunity. I’m even willing to pay the money back and more when I get the ball rolling.

Any contribution will help tremendously. I will leave my paypal link below.

I’ve been on this journey by myself now to this point since his passing. I came to the decision to release some new designs that I would work on for the next collection in dedication to his life. And well, they received a lot of praise. So much so, there’s major public figures that are interested in taking part in a suicide awareness campaign in honor of his life and the brand as well. LV8 is about uplifting yourself and living by success principles, regardless of your situation. Something my friend and I did and lived by.

We didn’t realize until after he moved here that “LV8” was an acronym for “ Las Vegas 2018” the year we moved.

I’m at a point where I can’t come up with the money myself and I’ve been trying every option. I was in a great amount of debt and don’t want to dig myself farther. I work a day job and I have 3 side hustles, including flipping stuff at goodwill and garage sales, as well as freelance writing. His birthday is on March 15th. The 15 was a huge part of his life, and now mine . It follows everywhere. This next collection will be by 15th and 16th pieces I’ve created.

I used to do it for fame and fortune, but now, it’s about dedicating myself and craft to my friend’s life.

Opportunity is what we all hope for.

Hello, I have been told my whole life be a good person, work hard and everything will work out. Another words be spiritually, mentally, physically, and financially stable. Feel pathetic and I have been trying this for many years and I am by no means perfect. I have made mistakes but nothing that is not normal for a human being to experience. My weakness is my heart and it has caused myself to be in unhealthy situations a lot in my life. I am a mother of two. I have been self employed most of my life but while raising children it became difficult to maintain everything. I have in the last year applied for over 100 jobs and that is no exaggeration and I cannot land a job. Been on interviews and nothing. I have lived on credit or borrowed money it’s disgusting. I live in a small town and the opportunities are slim to none. I grew up in this area and my children are in school and do not want to uproot them. I feel your damned if you do and damned if you don’t. How do you be a great mother, which is everything to me and yet be able to provide for them with no opportunities. I was taught to work for everything and sacrificing morals to get somewhere is never a choice for me. Maybe, that’s why I am where I am? I have had 6 different staff infections behind my brain, cervical cancer and plenty of other medical bills through my life which has never put me ahead of the game. I have been physically & mentally abused by relatives and relationships. Still I get up everyday hoping someday life will get better. I am a wonderful mother, I volunteer at school and help the elderly a lot. My passion is caring for others and I will never quit doing that no matter what. I would be so grateful to get rid of my debt and be able to live in a nice home so I am able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. A secure job would be great. I have thought of everything I can think of to make my situation better. My life seems to slam more doors than it opens. I feel I have so much to offer this world but yet no one is seeing it. I have been a nanny for 7 years and have taken care of others who have had diementia and cancer prior to being a mother. Which I loved working with private employers. I have tried this route and the potential is not real rational considering where I live and raising my children. No one wants to suffer or beg. I get some things in life are self inflicted but others are not. I have been struggling for years and not sure what the answer is. I guess if I knew, I would be writing this. Please by the grace of your kindness I will be able to be the best I can be. God Bless and forever grateful.

Former Caretaker for Mom in debt & needs help. Will Be homeless soon

I am a 31 year old adult living with mild autism and currently residing on the western edge of the Chicago metropolitan area, who without help will be homeless in a few months, I don’t have many friends or family who can help me. I feel ashamed asking for help of this magnitude, but I don’t have any other options. I work full time and I am struggling to get my debt paid off.

I was laid off my job in November 2014, around the same time my mom’s health started to rapidly deteriorate from sarcoidosis and a failing immune system. I made the decision to move back in to my parents place and take care of her. I did everything possible to make her feel comfortable as her disease progressed, including doctor and hospital visits, and medical care i could provide. My father at the time worked more than full time to pay the rest of the house bills and my mom’s medical bills.

To avoid defaulting on my student loans, I regularly took out cash advances and bypassing paying the high interest rates by repeating taking balance transfer offers from one credit card to another.

My mom sadly passed away in July 2016 at 56 years old waiting for a liver transplant.

I started to look for work again shortly after her passing. I made the decision to look for something in the restaurant industry. After completing a 12 week course to help get certifications and skills to work in a restaurant kitchen, I started to look for work.

Starting in late 2016 through 2017, I started to get sick regularly. Before I found work I was on medicaid, but after I got a job (which did not provide insurance) I was only able to afford mediocre insurance with a high deductible. I ended up going to immediate care every 8 weeks or so with painful throat infections and being forced to pay with my credit card to cover copays and out of pocket expenses.

I did land a decent job in March 2017 as a cook in a chain restaurant and I do enjoy what I do.

I did get decent health insurance in January 2018 and got my health issues resolved after getting surgery. I had to pay my high deductible and maximum out of pocket and copays with credit cards, but I am healthy again.

After all of this, I accumulated $36,000 in debt. I can only manage to pay a little above the minimum payment. This is on top of my $7,000 of student loan debt I have left to pay off

My father was nice enough to have me live him, but he has recently foreclosed on his home and is moving in with his girlfriend in the near future. I will be homeless in a few months and I can’t even save enough money for an apartment rent or security deposit..

I know I can and will succeed once I get this debt off my shoulders, but I need your help. Please donate and share with your friends.

Please help!

I Lost My Job, Got Evicted, and Really Need Help

First of all, I don’t know how to explain what happened to me. I lost my job in December; I worked at a check cashing store. I was a shift supervisor. My duty was to verify checks were real and verified funds. I was terminated a few days after a check bounced back from the bank due to it being forged. Apparently I got scammed and the company had to take the money as a loss. I spent the whole month of December going to interviews back to back but nobody hired me. When the beginning of January came around I finally got hired by Whataburger. But it was the beginning of the month so rent was due, and I had nothing more than $100. I managed to get an extension of a week and when I got my first paycheck I only made around $60. I managed to stall the leasing office one more week but they finally told me I must move out by this upcoming Monday the 21st.

I don’t really have furniture I just own my bed, clothes, shoes, toiletries, and kitchen ware. I’ve packed most of it in boxes and it’s all jammed up inside my car. I plan to strap my bed to the top of my car and I have no other choice than to live in my car.
What I’m basically trying to say is that I never thought this could happen, I was earning a good salary in my previous job and not having that income anymore really impacted my life. I’ve been working every day but I’m making around $300. I’ve been looking for places to stay and the cheapest rent I’ve found was $550, and that’s not including the deposit fees and application fees.
I really need help. I don’t know what I’m going to do living in my car. Your donations would help me have an extra income of money that I can save up to move into a new apartment while I work and look for a new, better paying job. I believe I can find a job that pays $12 an hour and can finally get back on my feet and have my life back to normal. It is greatly appreciated; the idea of having to sleep in my car parked somewhere, is very frightening. It’s something that I had never thought about. In the future I will make sure I save money here and there in order to have some type of backup because this situation is something I wouldn’t ever wish on anyone.

Thank you

Mental Health Crisis

To anyone taking the time to read my post, I’d like to thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

I am a 31 year old woman who has been coping with mental illness for the better part of 20 years. I have a major depressive disorder coupled with debilitating anxiety, which often presents as agoraphobia. This means that I am unable to leave my home quite often due to paralyzing fear. I suffer from terrible physical and emotional torment on a daily basis, even though I am persistent and consistent with the medication I’ve been prescribed. I am currently a recipient of disability benefits because of these issues.

I live with a roommate because of the financial constraints that come with being on government benefits. Please, do not think that I am ungrateful for the help that I receive, as I am painfully aware of what life was like before I applied. Having a roof over my head had been the most important goal in my life, and I am greatly relieved to be sheltered, regardless of the living arrangements. However, even at a reduced cost (by having a roommate,) I find myself stuck in mental health limbo.

I am completely unable to afford the ability to get well. I can either eat for the month, or go to one single therapy session. I have attended multiple free sessions and tried to get as much help as is available to me within my financial bracket, even trying to pay reduced rates offered by very generous professionals and going without proper food for weeks. However, living this way has only exacerbated my mental health issues and I fear the damage it is doing to me as I’ve been getting worse, not better. I feel like a prisoner of my circumstances.

I feel like I am an intelligent, persevering, strong woman that deserves the chance to fight for her life and make something out of it. I am desperate and determined to be a success; to overcome these struggles and be a productive member of society. I want to be able to make friends, fall in love one day, go to school, get a job I love, buy a home…I want a future. I deserve a future. Please help me fight for it.

If you can help me at all, I can’t begin to explain the difference it would make in my life. Thank you for reading.

I need $680.80 for my Invoice that my insurance won’t cover. I’m already in student debt.

I never ask for money because I never needed to. I’ve been working part-time since I was sixteen! I’m an engineering student and I’ve always taken pride in this and my mom always provides. We live paycheck to paycheck but we get through. However, because of the government shutdown, my mom’s paychecks are not coming and I’m struggling to pay for my college and everything.

I had an internship last summer and there was an abusive person who had a power-trip and tried to ruin me. He made rumors about me and when I spoke up about him, he screamed at me and embarrassed me in front of everyone. He would take me to coffee and told me that it was because of him I got this internship. By the way, this guy was around 300 pounds and other people at work later told me he was an insecure guy. He manipulated me, made me feel like everyone was watching me, and made me feel so insecure. He reminded me of Harvey Weinstein and he wasn’t even in a managing position! I After this experience I failed two classes and had many relationships cut off. I kept thinking about this situation and I feel like it was the worst situation in my life!

I decided to go to therapy thinking my insurance could provide it. Turns out, they didn’t and I just got billed from my therapist for nearly $700! I am so pissed and I can’t even focus on another interview I have in a few days. How do I tell my mom I need to pay $680.80 for therapy sessions when she doesn’t even have a check from her job?

I never ask for money like this and this is definitely my last time. I desperately need it and I don’t know where else to go. I am more than sure I will find a good job after I finish my degree (I’m in Engineering).

If there is anyone who can donate for my therapy sessions, I would be more than happy and you are literally saving my life. I already owe student loans but I’m paying them off. If I knew that therapy would cost me this much, I would not have gone. My anxiety is getting worse. I can’t breathe and I applied to work for a number of different places already. Please help me!

Desperately Needing Help

To whoever is reading this,

First off, thank you for reading. My name is Holli. I’m married with no kids. I have two dogs, and a ton of bills that I can’t pay. My husband works, but was told there was not enough to do at the shop for a few weeks during the slow month (December). They let him file unemployment but he gets less than half his normal pay. He was told it would be may three or four weeks, but it’s going on six. I work as a supervisor. Of course I’m part time because my company doesn’t want to fork out benefits. We make enough together to pay our bills and have some for fun. But since December we’ve been struggling to pay rent and our utilities. We’ve exhausted asking family. We’ve run out of extensions for our bills. Our landlord is breathing down our necks. This is pure, unadulterated desperation. I’m thirty years old and I can’t make ends meet. I live in Indiana where I can’t even get a dang title loan for my car. In the past, it’s gotten us through tough spots. We’ve pawned everything we can. I’ve even asked him to pawn his dead best friend’s guitar (which, bless his heart, he did). I hate myself right now. I hate that I can’t provide for my family. I guess it’s a good thing we haven’t had success in having kids. Today, he and I ransacked the entire house and the car for any spare change. We collected like, 6 bucks in pennies and nickles. I get to go to the grocery store and buy break and milk with a plastic bag full of pennies. I never thought I’d have to ask strangers for money. But there’s nothing else for me to do. So, again, thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

A Birthday To Remember

Meet my family..Hunter, Kaitlin , and Tonya..My name is Yolanda I am a single mom of three pretty amazing kids. My 8 year old son Hunter has saved my life, when I had a seizure on the kitchen floor and hit my head and was unconsious, My 5 year old daughter Tonya was diagnosed with Pertussis at 3 weeks old and spent 3 months in ICU recovering from her sickness mommy never left..Then there is Kaitlin she is my 7 year old miracle sent from God…Kaitlin was diagnosed with ALL Luekemia when she was 18 months old, I will never be able to explain the feelings that overcame my mind that day..I don’t want to lose my child, what did I do wrong? Is this my fault, what can we do now, how am I going to pay for treatment? You name it I thought it..But, in the end I pulled myself together, became that soldier that I had to be for my baby girl. I never left her side during her 12 extensive chemo treatments, Lumbar Puncture after Lumbar Puncture..Watching my baby lose what little hair she had was devastating. I continued and still continue to strive..She needs a strong mom not one that is even willing to give up. 3 years of chemo, test after test, needles after needles, We came out on top and Kaitlin is a Survivor..Yes it can come back, but we will not accept that thought. On February 17th 2014, Kaitlin was listed in full remission, and cancer free. She is now 7 and living strong. Me being a Single mom since day one, it is hard to do anything special with my kids, I am epileptic myself so I can not drive so why own a vehicle, that impairs us from going alot of places. The money is also just not there I struggle to survive everyday off 750.00 a month..Impossible pretty much but am I making it work? Absolutely, I won’t give up. I would love to be able to give my daughter A Birthday To Remember..Being able to afford it is hard. She loves butterflies because she says they are free, and able to go anywhere and do anything, and Unicorns are magic to her…They make everyday brighter and her smile wider..If I could just find a way to have enough extra funds even if just 100.00 I know I can make this happen for her..She deserves it, when a 7 year old little girl can wipe her mommy’s tears away and says ” No matter what happens there is a reason God has got Me I’m Going To Be Ok..” I can’t explain the feelings that flow through me..She is amazing..I so want to give her this…I just want to see the smile on her face, and for her to know in her heart how much she is loved and that Yes she is right she is going to be ok..If anyone can help it would be so appreciated , you would be my angel sent from above, may God bless you all. Hope, Faith, Love is worth more than you will ever imagine..

Need Help Buying Food

I look back over my life and wonder how I managed in the past. How did I (13 years ago) pay a mortgage and two car payments with all the utilities and insurance and still buy groceries and have money left over with small children in the house? I can’t do it today.

I am almost 6 months behind on 3 credit card bills. My husband hurt his back and was out of work for almost 2 months and that really hurt but I didn’t realize it would do this. I’ve been late so much on my auto insurance that they are demanding I pay up front for the next premium due in 10 days. $1900. I have an 18 yr old male in the house and cannot be without insurance. My lease car goes back in 2 months and I’m a month behind on that. I won’t be able to replace that car and we both have jobs so I don’t know what to do there. We paid our mortgage 20 days late last month. Hopefully it doesn’t get worse than that for the mortgage. Our credit is shot. I can’t ask for a loan and even if I could I wouldn’t be able to afford to repay it right now. I’m only upside down $5000 but because he got hurt and we fell behind that five grand is costing us everything. I can’t get caught up.

Im even struggling to buy food. My teenage son has gone from 154 to 136 because there are no snacks in the house anymore. He eats Raman noodles. Our 10 yr old girl calls herself the cereal queen and begs for pot roast. I’ve lost 20 lbs myself.

I feel like such a failure to even be typing a post like this but if anyone can help me feed my children and put us back on our feet… keeping the roof over their head I can feel this way forever. I will spend my life paying it forward when the means become available to me. I don’t know what else to do.

Fat Chick in Crisis

Look…I’m a fat chick. I’m not going to lie lol. A few months ago I started having heart palpitations and symptoms of sleep apnea and decided I need to do something about it. I started working out and eating a low carb high protein diet. I did all of this on my own as I have no one who emotionally supports my new lifestyle. My mom tries to help but her idea of a diet and what my body needs to lose weight are two different things. I’ve lost 50 pounds over the last three months by working out twice a day (combination of jump rope, stationary bike and kick boxing) and having medical grade protein mix. I weighed 312 and now I weigh 262. This January my student funding (which I rely on to buy things such as protein mix) was suddenly cut off (I’m working on a Sociology degree) so I can’t afford it any longer. I have a new job lined up for the end of February but I really hate to put my weight loss on hold for something like not having protein mix. On top of that my stationary bike died this morning. I have other forms of exercise of course but it is my go to proven cardio burn. I planned to buy a proper spin bike but that too is put on hold. To put it in perspective how much my financial crisis has torn my life up: my birthday was this past week and I literally had to spend the 50 dollars my best friend sent me (the only gift I received from anyone) to buy dog food. I don’t even care about any of my hardships except my weight loss. I have been overweight my entire life and this is the first time I have ever felt that I have a chance at reaching my weight loss goals. I have the drive and emotional tools to stick to this new lifestyle. Even without protein or a spin bike I still will not go back to the toxic life I had before. This is just my last ditch effort before I decide how many cans of tuna I need to eat to walk the fine line between weight loss and mercury poisoning. I seriously need some temporary help. If you can give anything at all this fat chick would be seriously grateful and will definitely pay it forward as soon as I get back on my feet.

Please help us

I have a long sad story to tell, but it will take more than 400 characters to type it up so I will do my best to make sense of my situation.

I am a single mother. I have no family (mother raised me and my younger sister and she was an abusive alcoholic). I moved to USA 15 years ago and from age 13 on I was in different foster homes due to bullying, sexual and physical abuse I experienced in those homes.

I have always been independent, smart, strong and kind. I worked very hard to be able to receive several scholarships, making it possible for me to go to one of the best private art colleges in the US.

Unfortunately, after my ex fiancé, who is the father of both of my children, decided to kidnap my daughter (he has been on the run & off the grid for over 3 years) and leave me with nothing while pregnant with our second child, things have been getting worse.

I have no family, no friends, no support of any kind. I am stuck in a very rural town with no car and no support. The county doesn’t have much of anything besides TANF, SNAP and a couple of assistance with electric bills but only for once a year.

Due to me being all alone with a 2 year old child, I’ve lost great jobs, a place to live and a month ago my son was put in foster care simply because my child got sick I had no one to watch him, and also due to the lack of transportation and resources.

I have been doing my absolute best and hardest to change my situation, but I am in a place with no support no family and I am set for failure and never being able to get my child back if I do not get help to get out of this town, help with getting my license back and a vehicle, help with housing in a nice decent neighborhood, help with just getting me back on my feet so my son and I will never have to go through something like this ever again and I can eventually find my daughter as well!

Thank you to all who took their time to read this and to the ones who are helping my children and I without even knowing us !

20 and can’t get a loan! ):

Hello my name is Emily and I’m 20 years old. I’m not really sure how well these sites work as I have not used one before and “GoFundMe” didn’t seem like the right website to beg for money on but I desperately need help so I’ll just jump right in I guess. I owe $273 for my December 2018 car payment (which my grandpa paid for but I need to pay him back for it and I can’t ask him for anymore money) and another $273 for this January 2019. I will also owe $302 on my rent by February 2019 before being evicted and close to $600 for car insurance (I pay every 6 months instead of monthly or yearly) by the beginning of March 2019. I was out of work for awhile but recently got a care taker job but I’m still going through training so I’m not getting many hours and I only get paid twice a month. I tried to get a loan but each place I tried said I needed to be working at my current job for a certain length of time or use my vehicle as collateral. I can’t use my vehicle for collateral because my name isn’t the first name on the registration and I can’t get my family members signature that has their first name on the registration because they are out of the country. I have been pawning what I can to make a little extra cash to help me get back up on my feet, but getting a few bucks here and there by pawning dvd’s and what not just isn’t cutting it. I even started cleaning houses of people from my church every other weekend to scrape a little extra but that’s still not cutting it. I know tax time is coming up but it won’t be enough money and it won’t be soon enough to help me in these situations before everything crashes and burns. I feel helpless and like I have no other options. I wouldn’t be doing this if I wasn’t super desperate, literally ANYTHING helps and is so so so appreciated!

(P.S. I’m willing to send photos via e-mail, kik, text, etc. of the receipts from my payments just to show you that’s truly what I’m using it for because I know how untrustworthy people can be)

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this post and God Bless.
