I Urgently Need Money So I Don’t Get Kicked Out Of The Country I Call Home

Hi everyone, I don’t know where to begin really.

I’m currently living in Australia, originally from Asia, and have spent my post high school years here. I practically call Australia home, treasure my friends and my life here, where it is free and fair.

Right after I finished university, I applied for a post graduate visa. However, due to extremely bad advice by a few officers from the Home Affair Department, my visa application got refused. (Tldr: they advised me to apply first and take and submit my English test results after, only for my application to get refused for the EXACT SAME REASON THEY GAVE ADVICE TO ME)

I was extremely devastated when I received the refusal letter a few days ago. I really cant go back to my home country. My dad found out I was gay recently, and will definitely send me to a gay conversion therapy where I will most likely disappear.

Fortunately, a friend who has gone through the exact same thing has referred me to an extremely talented and generous immigration lawyer, where he will help me for a reduced fee. Unfortunately, in order for me to stay in the country I will have to go to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) to overturn my visa refusal for the cost of $1787AUD.

Being a recently graduated student, I have been surviving with income from casual jobs. I couldn’t apply for a full-time job since most companies wont accept somebody on a bridging visa, and it was during the new year period. However, this fee for the AAT is out of my financial reach. My parents practically wont help me on this one, and my friends don’t really have that money to lend to me. And to top it of, I have less than 20 days left to gather all the funds for my tribunal case and lawyer fees.

I need help, I’m really scared to go back.

If anyone can help me by donating to me, I’d be extremely grateful for your generous help <3

If anyone has any advice on what I can do with my situation financially, please do so.

I’m just really lost at the moment. Hopefully a miracle happens for me soon, because this year has been horrible so far :(

Last resort

Hi,

First of all thank you for reading my story.

Where do I start. I am 48 years old have come home to New Zealand after 27 years of living in Holland and Germany. With me I bought my beautiful Daughter of 13. A big transition for us both.

What was supposed to be a wonderful love story is slowly turning into something I cannot describe in words. I met up with my teenage sweetheart online and we reconnected. As I stayed with my (ex) husband after he cheated for another 6 years, I thought I would take the plunge…a plunge back home to happiness

Within 3 Months after my holiday to new Zealand, My ex and I were divorced, and sold our home. I came Home dec 2018, My ex and I parted peacefully and as he is a captain on a barges and therefore not home alot he consented for my daughter to come to New Zealand with me. Off course visiting rights and plans were all planned.

I came home with enough money for a deposit on a home, to hopefully realise my dream. Starting a horse rescue/correction centre.

I supported my new man his children and myself, not being able to work for 6 months due to my residence visa having expired and having to obtain a working partnership visa. As my partner and his kids did not want to work, but did want the goodies, my money started disappearing very fast. I was naive… I believed and trusted it would be ok. Now I am left without anything, we had to have a joint account due to our partnership, I supported him to start his woodworking dream, I am working my butt off to keep us a float. But I am sinking fast. The Bills are piling up, the house is a mess cause im tired after i get home. His woodworking is done from home, he doesnt want to work nor clean. Just sometimes he will do his woodwork.

VISA . Even my visa money has been spend.. Yes I work.. but my salary doesnt cover the costs we have.

(I am looking for a home for my beautiful so much loved horses as with my working I cant spend enough time with them and I need to downgrade homes) just for me and my little girl.

I am walking on eggshells just awaiting the next bollocking when I get home.

I need to break away. I need to get my daughter and myself into a A&D free clean Lovin peaceful home, where she doesnt see her mummy crying herself to sleep everyday, where i can do what I love so much…provide cook bake be self sufficient. and love living life

Please this is my last resort. Social welfare wont help as I earn too much according to them…..

I have never ever held up my hand before I am rock bottom please…. I do not know what else to do…

HELP MY DAUGHTER AND I TO START AGAIN PLEASE!!!!!!!

Use of funds

The money will be spend on getting out of a toxic environment and creating a safe haven for my daughter and I. Excess will be donated to a Horse/animal rescue centre that once was my dream.

Mom of Autistic child needs help Please

7th January 2020

Hello,
I’m a single mum of a beautiful Autistic boy whom I adore dearly.
I’m in a bit of a pickle due to lack of funds.
My only son is 9 and he’s autistic (high functioning) and I think he’s amazing.
We’ve been through a bit of a rough patch with school due to bullying and his
educational needs not being met so I’ve taken him out of school to homeschool him.
It wasn’t an easy decision and it’s been a hard few years of tears and tantrums
(both his and mine 🤔) and I finally just had to make a decision for his
emotional and educational wellbeing and take him out.
It’s been hard but it’s the best decision I’ve made and I can see he is much more stable and his learning is coming along so well now. We use an online curriculum that has been created by teachers called Time4learning and on another site called KiwiCrate we get what’s called a “Tinkercrate” sent to us each month which has a creative science or technology based project to make. It’s really neat even if it does cost a bit much.
Anyway at the moment I can’t work as I have my son 24/7 with no break whatsoever. Its tiring of course but he needs me and I’m his mum so that’s just how it is.
Unfortunately the money side of things is pretty dismal. We live on $439 per week and I’ve had to take out a loan to pay for a new fridge as ours was just not working right anymore
(a block of cheese would go mouldy in one week!) and some educational bits and pieces of course such as
a printer and a reconditioned laptop as we couldn’t use the old desktop anymore as it was just too slow. So I really would be so grateful if I could get some help paying off this debt.
I need to free up our money so we can get on with our everyday lives. I want my son to be able to go to the shop and get a treat once in a while or to be able to save some money for a holiday at the beach for a week maybe.
I have a two credit card accounts that I’d like to pay off and a loan.
The amounts are ;
Finance Now Card $1,486.00
Finance Now Loan $3,455.00
Mastercard $480.00

I would be so very grateful for any amount towards these accounts.
Thank you so much.

I just can’t not feed my kids

Hi,  I’m a mum to 3 step mum to 4 and a grandma to 1. My partner spent 11 mths in jail because of a stupid choice he made in the spur of the moment to text about drugs for his mate on his phone and it just happened to be while they were tracing the other person’s phone. I become single mum to 7 kids, got evicted because the owner found out he went to jail, found a place with a 6 mth lease, house was sold 2 weeks before my lease was up,  I moved 500kms away to be closer to family, it took all my savings and I got a loan to help move.  Ex husband didn’t pay child support for 4 1/2 yrs and I was to scared of him to get it because he is so manipulative and always threatened to turn my kids against me n that I’d never see them again. Missed out on a lot of money and got into a lot of debt. Kids missed out on so much but he didn’t care. Wasn’t his responsibility if I couldn’t afford things for the kids.  But I finally stood up to him and got child support to collect for me 4 months ago. So as I was moving 3 mths ago it had changed from private to they collect, he still manually put a payment in knowing they were collecting it. He then called them in Nov and told them so I have to pay him back the extra payment meant no child support just before Christmas, no time to plan or save as I was relying on it to get gifts for my kids, pay my car payment and let kids enjoy a few outings over the holidays, it’s been years since we have been able to do that.  I’m behind on my car payment, I’ve got other debts but I’ll work away at them.  But I’m on a disability, paying $370 week rent waiting to get a government house and I pay water n power rest of my money goes on food. I rely on friends hand me downs to clothe my kids and be tight on food if the kid need shoes. I was just starting to catch up on my bills and it was nice to be able to breathe a little.

Any help to buy gifts for my kids or help me pay my car payment which is $178 fn. The whole loan is $7500 I paid 10 mths of a 3 yr loan. I just can’t not feed my kids to pay it.

I’m currently going to councillors and they are preparing me to take my ex to court for unpaid child support but I’m scared and he says I’m selfish because the past is the past and he’s not paying it.

Fixing a child’s Christmas

Hi there,

My name is Fletcher and this is for my child Benjamin. I was recently fired from my financing job because of redundancy. This has left me struggling to pay rent, let alone get my kid a Christmas present.

I’m a 32 year old single father living in Auckland New Zealand. My son Ben is 13 years old and has just finished his first set of exams this year.  At the start of the year I promised Ben that if he did well enough on his exams this year I would buy him a Nintendo Switch. His exam results were far past outstanding. Now that I have been fired from my job, I am unable to keep my promise. Making my son happy, and giving him a good life is my ultimate goal, and if he has to bear me not being able to support the both of us then I’m afraid what it will do to him and his schooling.

Having to pay the high rent prices in Auckland so that my son could stay with his friends at school has left me going into debt. The payments from his mother are barely enough to keep us in the same house.

All my son has asked me for for the past two years is a Nintendo switch, and now that I’ve given in and said I’ll get him one, I’m afraid I won’t be able too because of my financial situation.

I have been searching for a new job as hard as I can but I haven’t been successful in even finding a minimum wage part time job.

All I’m asking of you is to help me get him the Christmas present he wants so  don’t badly. I  want money to help with rent, I’ll be able to find a job soon, but with Christmas so close I’ll never be able to get enough money for his present.

I hope you can find it in your heart to help a single father who just wants his son to have a good childhood without the financial worry’s I’m facing.  The cost of a Nintendo switch in New Zealand is $500NZD, I’m hoping you can help me reach this goal as quickly as possible so that I can have a happy son this Christmas.

Thank you so much for reading.

Merry Christmas.

Urgent Request to Solve Financial Problems

Hello readers,

I’m Valerie and am seeking help from you, the kind citizens of the online community, in relation to my renting and financial situation.

I’m been living in Brisbane (AUS) for 3 years now. Very far away from my hometown, Vietnam, and I am graduating this December. To explain my case, I’ve been renting out this 2 beds and 2 baths flat close to the CBD for more than 1 year. My latest housemate decided to move back to the coast so I’m carrying the rent for both rooms which is $400 per week, electricity and internet not included. My family is not one of the wealthiest, or poorest, but my parent worked very hard to save money to provide both me and my older sister. However, things got worse over the last year as my father passed away from severe illness. What happened came really fast and unexpected. My mom was left alone to make money to cover mine and my sister’s living expenses here in Australia, despite the fact that my parent’s business of producing cardboard boxes for transport has become less and less thriving. Ultimately, my mother decided to shut down the business this year. What makes this even more difficult is understanding that the Vietnamese currency is way lower than Australian’s, which means it costs more Vietnam dong (VND) to buy a few Australian dollars.

I didn’t want to ask my mother for money this time as it seems to become a more sensitive subject since my father’s death. Adding to the renting issue, I’m owning my old housemate’s bond as I don’t have the money to pay her back. I still have some money in my bank account but it’s not enough to cover rent for both rooms, my living expenses and the bond. I also can’t move out right now because in the contract I signed with the building manager, I would still have to pay rent until he finds new tenants. So, there are not many options for me at the moment to solve this.

I have listed the spare room for rent but not many people are inspecting or wanting to rent it during this holiday break, and I really can’t afford the rent over the next month all by myself. Therefore, whatever you can donate will mean a lot to me and it can definitely help me a little bit longer until I find a new housemate and sort out my finances.

My PayPal link is PayPal.Me/VD1012. I appreciate your help very much and wish good things will come to you as well!

In need

Hi I’m 26 with 2 young kids,

I’m needing to pay off my parents funeral who both passed away. My dad 2 days before Christmas 2016 of a heart attack  and my mum got cancer 6 months after my dad died and passed 7 months after on the 10/03/2017 I’m an only child so it has always just been us 3 no other family.

I’m struggling to pay my bills and pay off there funeral. I’m behind at least $15000 in funeral cost and $5000 in everyday bills. I would never get on here and do something like this but I’m struggling. My car is also not on the road as it was in my mum’s name and I need to get a hole new road worthy on it which is going to cost a fair bit.

If anyone could help me out would mean the world.

I know I’m a grown women but I did really rely on my parents for everything as it was just us 3.

Please read to the end

I kindly ask you to please read my letter to the very end and to please not assume that I am after a handout or free money.

 

I am sure you receive allot of letters requesting for help and allot of people take advantage of you/site.  Of course, it’s a beautiful thing to be in a position to help others and I admire those that think of others in need, vulnerable and unprivileged. I can NEVER justify asking for free money as I am in no way deserving.

 

I am very embarrassed to write this letter, I’ll say this straight up. But the worst thing that could happen is that you could ignore this letter altogether and hit delete. I am not asking for a donation or free money.

 

I have been blessed all my life and I am still blessed but I in a situation which has forced to come up with this crazy idea to approach your site with this request thinking maybe you can help me with it.

 

We (my two sisters and brother) were raised by our beloved mother who was an amazing woman and my inspiration in life. She did everything in her power to raise us on her own because my dad was a selfish man. Unfortunately my mother died due to Lung cancer in 2003 at the young age of 46.

 

We struggled without her as she was our rock. Her death was very tough on us but we did well considering all the circumstances. I still remember the day I was woken up at 4am to be told she passed away after a long struggle with cancer.  She was buried in Auckland New Zealand.

 

We since all moved to Australia. I have two beautiful sisters and a brother.  My younger sister and my brother struggled the most with her passing but thank God, we have come a long way and we made it ok. We are so lucky and blessed.

 

I worked really hard since I was 14 years old and I am still working at 37 and it’s a blessing to be in a position to support yourself and family without asking anyone for help. I cannot sit here and say we we struggled or provide a sob story when in fact there are other families in much worst situations and it’s embarrassing to even say the word struggle when you have people living in the streets with no shelter and no food. I took a trip last year to Cambodia to assist a charity programme to feed the poor villages there; I saw the meaning of struggle. I am sure other countries and people have it hard too.

 

Losing mum was very tough especially for my young sister and brother who have seen dark days. At one point my sister did not want to wake up and did not see the meaning of living. My brother took the other way and drowned his sorrows in the most typical way, in drugs and alcohol and was involved with bad, very bad people.

 

At one point, I saw myself asking my boss to work from home (to monitor my sister so she doesn’t do anything to harm herself) and to try and help my brother. He has caused us years of horrible memories; I don’t wish that on my worst enemy.  He has drained us emotionally and financially. Especially me.

 

I asked my dad for financial help many times to assist in putting my brother into rehab. But I was ignored every time even though he said he loved us.(my dad is a separate story..)

 

I was determined to turn my life around; I prayed and asked God for strength to get me through this difficult time.  My older sister was married and in a different city and my brother and sister were living with me.

 

Thankfully my brother did eventually ask for help. He was taken into hospital rehab, multiple times as he relapsed. He was involved with really bad people.  The sort of people that would really harm you and your family should you cross them.

 

At one point, he was so out of it, and his phone would not stop ringing but he wouldn’t answer it because he owes money to some bad people. Apparently those people allow you to borrow in advance till your next pay. There was threatening messages on his phone along the lines of, if you don’t pay we will come after your family. Without even thinking I find myself answering whoever that person was and agreeing to pay the debt and asking them please to stay away from my brother as he needs help.  I didn’t even think twice about going to pay his debt off as I had a younger sister and her safety means the world to me. I was afraid they would harm her to get back at him.

 

He borrowed money from us multiple times, especially me. He stole items from the house; he borrowed my car and got me multiple fines. He destroyed me financially but I am very happy that he is now recovered and clean and trying to turn his life around.

 

I put him into hospital and paid for all his rehab and doctors’ appointments, for the fines.  Paid for my sister’s doctors’ appointments. Since dad didn’t help, I borrowed money left right and centre and worked tirelessly at my full time job and did other jobs on the side to pay these expenses off.

 

I spent many nights crying but never gave up. My young sister is now married with a beautiful child and my brother has recovered and is clean and sober. I think it’s because of all the good deeds that my mother did when she was alive that things turned out this way and I am so happy and forever grateful.

 

Unfortunately, this has left me in a really bad shape financially. I have had to borrow money left right and centre and I spent years paying off most of the debt.

 

There is one personal large debt that I could not pay and I need to pay it by November this year. I am not asking you to give me money. I am asking you to please consider ‘loaning me the money’ SECURED AGAINST MY PROPERTY.

 

I do have my townhouse with a mortgage and I do work full time and the house has an equity of about $250K AUD. I have no credit cards or other personal loans. I don’t shop materialistically and I happily wear the same two skirts I have had for the last 10 years (no jokes). I live very simply and I don’t live beyond my means. The banks and their stupid lending criteria won’t lend me despite having that equity (well they will lend me about $10K but not what I need to pay off this loan).

 

Please hear me out.

 

Would you please consider loaning me the amount of $150k AUD ‘secured’ against my property?  I am not asking for free money. And I understand your concerns loaning money to a stranger and wondering if you would ever get this money back that’s why if you ever be kind to lend me this amount, I would put a caveat in your name against my property.  This means I cannot sell my property or request finance against it ever without paying you the amount of $150k AUD back.  Your interest is secured against my house.

 

My mortgage is $450k AUD and my property is valued at $600k+ AUD. It’s a beautiful 2 bedroom double brick townhouse built in 1986 by a Turkish builder who built it with love. Not many houses are built double brick these days.

 

This is how I am planning to pay you back the $150K AUD should you ever be kind enough to consider helping me:

 

-I would rent out the townhouse that I am currently living in and move out to my sister’s house. That way the rental income would pay for the mortgage.  Also, being a rental property means that most expenses would be tax deductable.

 

-I work full time and I earn $2100 AUD net a fortnight. I would pay you back a minimum of $1000 a fortnight.(the terms can be all written in the caveat so you are protected).

 

-I would also find a second job (weekend or evening) to boost up the repayments and to cover me should I need to pay for anything unexpected.

 

-I am determined to pay you back this amount under 3 years. Either way the caveat on the property protects your interest and properties in Sydney have continuously gone up.  Sydney property market is one of the best in the country. We can even put a clause in the caveat that states if I don’t pay you in three years then I would sell the house (and of course if that happens then the bank gets their money back ie mortgage repaid and you get your caveat amount).

 

-I will pay for the lawyer’s fee in setting up all legal documents.

 

-Of course lending comes with interest or an extra amount profit to you. I am not expecting you to lend me interest free. You can set that amount or figure ( I hope you find it in your heart to make this figure reasonable for me to manage though).

 

-I have also thought tirelessly of ways to earn more money to manage this debt. I am selling all my personal items at home. I will be doing surveys online.  Any way I can earn money legally and ethically I will attempt in order to pay you back this loan in this time frame.

 

-This might sound stupid but I thought Ill share this with you. I am also collecting cans/bottles for recycling because in Sydney we collect and return and earn $0.10 cents per can/bottle.  This way I am doing my part for the environment and earning money.

 

-I am even happy to work for you if you would allow me to.

 

You might think why you don’t just sell the property. I have considered it and that might be what I have to do and I am happy to do that. It’s just that putting a property on the market does not guarantee a quick sale by November or for the right price

 

I am a hard working person, I worked really hard since I was 14 years of age and I am so blessed to still have my two sisters and my brother alive and around me. I am not asking for free money. And yes, even asking for a loan is embarrassing but I am desperate.  I need to pay this person back.  I will provide any document you want to prove everything I said is true. I did ask for a ‘caveat loan’ but financial institutions don’t lend caveat loans for personal reasons only for business reasons and they only lend 60% of the value of the equity available in the asset.  I have a good credit file and I have ordered a recent credit file to prove to you as well that I have no defaults.

 

Please find it in your heart to help me. Yes I understand there are people in the world in worst positions than me who have no food or shelter. That’s the part that is killing me and the embarrassment I am talking about before.  I am embarrassed and ashamed of myself but I am asking for a secured loan against my property, I am not asking for free money or donation.  I am so grateful for all the blessings I have in my life and I am determined to turn my life around. I never gave up on my siblings, I never gave up in the past and I am not going to give up now.

 

As God as my witness, there is nothing that I have written in this letter that is a lie. I know allot of people write sob stories or make up things just to get something back. My mother raised me better than to do that. I am not going to tell you a sad story so that I can scab free money from you.

 

I will provide all documents that you can verify with any legal firm/verification firm like my payslips, my credit file, my property, and my mortgage statements. (Even my mother’s death certificate and proof my brother went to rehab…multiple times).

 

I am not perfect, far from it. I made so many mistakes but I do have a huge heart. I did my part and gave back to society (it’s not nice to mention that I did do good deeds) but I helped allot of people and I am hoping that I can be helped now but this is not the sort of money I can ask friends and family as they do not have that sort of money to lend me.

 

You are in no obligation to help me or believe me but if you do, I would provide all documents to prove what I said and like I said earlier, your interest is protected as you would have a caveat under your name on my property that protects the money that you would lend me with the conditions you set and agree on.

 

I am really desperate. I am actually shaking writing this letter. Losing my mother is my lowest point of my life so nothing comes close to it but being in this position is also bad. I hate to ask for a loan. I am not asking for charity money or donation. I will never do that. My overall well-being has been affected as I am stressing about the money that I need to pay by this November this year.  I am actually nauseous.

 

I understand you don’t know me and may not believe me. I am happy to provide anything you want to prove to you who I am and that what I said is true. There is allot about me that you don’t know and I am sure a letter like this does not really paint a true picture of the kind of person I really am.

 

Would you please consider helping me out in my situation? I struggled and put my life on the side for my family. I couldn’t finish university and I don’t regret anything I did, even the mistakes I made shaped me into the person I am now.

 

I am sure when you started out you had struggles and had dark days and you had people help you out, people that stood by you.  Maybe you had no help but I am sure you know the feeling of helping someone in need when you can. I did in the past and I don’t regret it. I put my family first and I did everything to protect them like my mother asked me to on her death bed. I love my family and I am forever grateful for all the blessings that God has given me.

 

I wrote this letter from the heart, it’s not perfect, it’s all over the place but rest assured I am a decent person. I am a hard working person. You more than welcome to come to my house and meet me in person (which I would be honoured if you do) or ask me any question you want or clarification via phone or email which ever you prefer (if you ever decide to reply to me).

 

I am going to try my best to seek help, I will try all avenues, but of course I can only have ‘one caveat’ on my property. I am sure allot of people might read this letter and laugh it off, delete it and ignore it or might be too busy to even open it. I know I am crazy for even thinking that someone as important and famous as you would consider even replying to me let alone help me with this loan but nevertheless, if you did read to the end, I want to thank you for your time and attention and I wish you and your family and loved ones all the best of life.

 

If by any miracle or chance I get helped already by another avenue, I will contact you and let you know to disregard this request/letter.

 

May you never be in a position like mine, where you have to ask for loan using this crazy method like mine, but like they say, desperate means desperate measures.

 

My email address is Auckland_nz@live.com.au . If you don’t wish to help that’s fine, but please don’t make fun of me or my letter by sharing in public or social media.  Please respect me and my privacy by just deleting it.  I understand it’s pathetic and like I said earlier, I am not proud of myself to write this letter or to ask for a loan. But here I am.

 

From what is left from the water of my face and pride, I thank you for hopefully reading this letter to the end.

 

I hope to hear back from you….

 

Kind regards,

 

Someone in desperate position….

Help me get my boobs back!

I’m sure a lot of people asking for donations in this site have stories a lot better and more deserving then mine, and I’m not trying to take anything away from their worthy causes by posting this, but if you want anything in life you have to give it a go….

Not going to lie- I used to have a banging rack. I could get up in the morning and throw on anything and walk out the door happy and confident. Fast forward 6 years and 3 kids later my once double whoppers are now soggier than the sand in the bottom of a sock.

They say it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all… I feel like this is a big fat lie. Because I had nice melons, I now know the pain of living without them. If I never had good bewbs I would never know the true pain of waking up every day and seeing these fried eggs staring back at me in the mirror. Well on generally is, the other one is normally hanging over my shoulder or folded under my armpit.

In all seriousness though it has made my confidence levels drop significantly and I am so conscious of what I can wear and how low my top is when I am out that I feel like I can never fully let my guard down and enjoy myself. Even with a high neck top on the shape and height of my honkers are horrendous.
Having 2 small children it feels selfish to spend money (which we clearly don’t have) and do something purely cosmetic for myself, but I would love for my children to have a mum who can just walk out the door happy and carefree. Who doesn’t get depressed walking past a mirror or seeing her reflection in a window and who doesn’t gaze at other mums with amazing norks and wish that hers were the same. I know realistically my kids give zero shits about how I look, but I feel like if I am more confident within myself I will be happier. And a happy mum equals happy kids.

Decent implants are around $5000+ but I would honestly be happy with any contribution. I will keep everyone posted with how my story progresses. Also I’m sorry but I’m not going to be posting photos of my breasts before and after, so please don’t ask. More than happy to post receipts of consultations and after the procedure is done.
Thanks for reading :)

Mumma in need

My name is Mikayla-Jane but people call me MJ. Now I could sit here and write about my childhood and how I’ve spent most of my life homeless and on my own but honestly… There are far more people who have had it worse then I. What I will say is that I’m now currently a single mum to two beautiful boys and work two Jobs to make ends meet. I don’t have any family, I have very little support and my youngest has to get surgery soon that will cost around $3000. I’ve saved half but I’m struggling to come up with the rest. Because I have no family, I have no one to ask for help. Working two jobs means I spend most my time away from my kids. I miss them and I really wish I could afford to give them a holiday. I don’t want some expensive overseas trip but just a small one where we can spend time together.

I know some of you are wondering why I can’t just get a loan if I’m working two jobs, well my got a loan in my name without my knowledge and when I found out it was already on my credit rating. I’m still paying off the loan. So I guess this and winning the lottery would be my only hopes of affording a holiday. My son’s surgery is first priority and I will find a way to pay for it. I’m just hoping  for an easier way.

Car – To Leave Toxic Family

Hey everyone!

I suffer from diagnosed severe social anxiety, generalised anxiety and depression. Unfortunately my parents don’t understand any of it (especially anxiety), no matter how much I explain, no matter how much they learn about the scientifics behind it, and no matter what my doctors and psychiatrists say to them. Over the last two years, I’ve been trying medications, councillors, therapy and it’s included many, many doctors appointments. During this time, my parents have developed an anger towards me and ‘the way I am’ because of my mental health – which I cannot control. It’s gotten to the point where this year they have been extremely emotionally and verbally abusive. I have unfortunately attempted suicide because of this, self harmed nearly every day, and completely shut down and isolated myself from every person I had in my life.

I have extreme anxiety just being at home in my house, I’m constantly mentally abused and looked down upon  by the two people who I expected to care the most. My household is the most toxic place for me, and I need x100 to get out. Working is very hard for me because of my non existent social skills and never ending nervousness and panic attacks. I struggle to even leave the house. I don’t want to go into too much detail because it’s hard to talk to others about, but it’s extremely heavy stuff. There isn’t one night I don’t cry for 40 minutes in the shower, and I sleep through most days as an escape of everything. I just am completely hopeless but still holding onto this mini plan of mine.

Long story short, I’m currently trying to save about $4,000 or less to buy myself a car, in order to be able to move out of home as I won’t need to depend on anyone, and I won’t really NEED to live there anymore. And then get myself a job so I can live somewhere, just to be able to get out of my house as soon as possible. It’s come to the point where I can’t handle it anymore, and I know in my heart and my head that I will not survive much longer there. I’m completely open to any donations, even $1 ❤️ I have saved $500 so far this year, and I’m still trying my best to earn money here and there when I can get out of bed.

I would genuinely really appreciate anything, for the sake of my future. I don’t want to die, but the state and situation I’m in right now is leaving me no choice sadly.

This is all 100% true, although I wish I had different reasons for asking for money such as college funds or bills being payed or even wanting a luxury holiday getaway. I’m simple just trying to help myself now before it’s too late.

I hope everything made sense! This is scary to put out on the internet even though it’s anonymous, so please do respect what I’ve said. I will always respect you ☺️

Thank you guys so much.

I want to be alive

Trigger warnkng: talk of abuse, mental illness, and death.

 

I feel like my life is falling apart.

My name is Allan, I’m a 22yr old transgender male. I know that the above statement sounds childish, but it feels like my life is going nowhere and because of that, I want to end my life.

My story is a long one so I don’t know how much I will say. I grew up with my siblings and my single mother who was very abusive and neglectful. There were good times in my childhood, but few. I don’t remember a lot of my upbringing due to repressed memories of the trauma, but I do remember a few terrible incidents. I was constantly afraid- we all were- and there were many times growing up that I believed my mom would kill me or one of my siblings.

So I guess I just kind of started out bad. My mom was pretty normal before she had her first born, my older sister. Then my mom became paranoid, anxious, and basically crazy. My dad said he suspect post-natal psychosis, but more recently we’ve been thinking it’s borderline personality disorder (which I have recently been diagnosed with).

As an example of my mom, she refused to go outside to even hang out the washing because she was afraid that news helicopters would be there to film her.

My story is ridiculous, I should write a book. Anyway, when I was 4 yrs old my dad left the picture. I don’t remember much of it, but I was told the story. My dad was apparently questioning his sexuality at that point. He realised he was gay, and he had a lot of shame. He’d already had 3 children to my mom, including me. But he discovered his sexuality after he had a family, and my mom loved him so much, and my dad loved her but in a different way. My dad thought that he must not deserve his beautiful family if he was gay. My dad moved out of the house. My mom was very neglectful to us, sometimes not feeding us for days when I was just 3. My dad said he visited once and saw my older sister (by 2 years) feeding me a slice of bread (me who was around 1yr), in secret in the toilet. Apparently my older sister wanted her baby sibling to be healthy, but mom hadn’t fed me for days at that time.

My dad lost the court case for custody. My mom cut off contact with him and moved to a small rural town in Australia where he wouldn’t be able to find us. So I never knew who my dad was.

Life with mom was normal. It wasn’t until I was 15 that I realised our family’s normal was not how others family’s were. Other family’s did not chase eachother with knives and threaten lives. Their parents would not punch them repeatedly, they did not have to ask for everything like opening a window or eating an apple. Their parents actually talked to them. That was not my mother at all.

I realised later in life that my mom is a very sick woman. 

I met my dad through tv, which is insane. On the off-chance this post gets popular, I won’t say which show, but honestly you could probably find it given the details I’ve shared already.

My sister met him on tv, and then shortly after I got to meet him. He was nothing like my mom told us. He is the most beautiful person I have ever met. I have truly never met a soul like his- I know this is strange, but I really believe he is an angel. And I am so, so proud to be his son. He radiates goodness. He’s had a terrible life, yet he is the most loving and generous person I know. I am so lucky that he is my dad.

When I turned 18, I’d had enough of our home situation and I ran away to live with my dad across the country. All of this sounds insane when I write it. But everything in my life is always so hectic, that sometimes I think I’m cursed. 

Basically I lived with my dad for a few years. It was the first time that I had ever felt loved by someone else. His fatherly love was so clear, and he’s taught me so much about the world. He is my biggest inspiration. Apparently he had even tried to kill himself in those 12 years he didn’t know us. He loved us children more than anything in the world. When he talks about it, he cries. When he saw me last, I was 4yrs old- now I was 16. My brother was an infant, now he was 13 years old. His story is heartbreaking. But he inspires me.

Because of my bad upbringing, I’ve had mental health issues all my life. I was very depressed in high school and I developed anorexia. I started to self harm because I saw my older sister was doing it. I tried to end my life multiple times, but I’d wake up the next morning and go to school as if I’d never attempted it at all. I had a few close friends, and I told them about it. They had a bad life too and felt the same way I did.

I’ve lived independently before but I always get caught up in drinking because of my depression. I’m very proud to say that I stopped self-harming, after 5 years of bad self-harm and wearing long sleeves every single day. 

I’ve been addicted to alcohol and clubbing in the past, because I didn’t care about anything. I drowned out my issues with alcohol. At my worst, I was having 30 standard drinks a night each day for about 3 months. And to think I was only 20.

I was living with my best friend/girlfriend for a few years, but my mental health has always been on a decline. Last year my grandad passed away and I was the only one in my family not able to say goodbye. Even writing that hurts. I was on the other side of the country and I had just managed to get the funds for a plane ticket since my grandad had liver ancer and it was shockingly progressive. He was diagnosed, then 2 weeks later he was dead.

I carry a lot of guilt over that, and that’s when my mental health plummeted. I was drinking again each day, I started self-harming again, I had a few poor attempts at ending my life. I didn’t know at the time, but I have borderline personality disorder and the death of my grandad is what triggered it. I yelled and hated my girlfriend who I loved and cherished. I wore her down until we broke up, and then  she decided not to be in my life. She is the most important person to me. I’ve talked about her on social media and said the things she’s done to me which are terrible and heart-breaking. I say that I hate her but I never could really hate her. I miss her everyday. I’ve had many suicidal thoughts over that loss.

I thought 2018 was the worst year of my life, but it is this year without a doubt.

I left my girlfriends house to live with my dad in A very rural town (12 houses, no shops). I was really bad with alcohol, very suicidal. I had many trips to emergency but the health system doesn’t care if there are no physical symptoms. If you are only having thoughts of going through with your suicide plan, they send you home. We’ve been mistreated by so many hospitals and medical professionals that my dad and I have discussed going to the media about it and raise awareness, because the medical system does it to countless of people- they do not care if you are suicidal.

My dad suffers from bipolar disorder. A few years ago, his best friend in the world died of cancer. This event caused his full blown bipolar. He was in a mental ward for about a month, and he told me later of his plans of killing himself and how he would do it. He was in too much pain.

I’ve got to tell you. Hearing your dad’s suicide plan is one of the most painful things to go through. Your beautiful dad, who helps everyone and who has unconditional love, who has always put me first in the short time we’ve known eachother- and he wanted to die.

In this rural town, my dad and I actually lived in a small church so it was ironic. But many terrible things happened in the four months we were there. Including my dad getting a restraining order on his best friend who had been using him for years. I had my first serious suicide attempt where I cut my artery and was rushed in an ambulance to the hospital- apparently I was falling unconscious in the ambulance and they didn’t know if I would make it. That entire thing was traumatic. My dad had to clean up litres of my blood in a hotel bathroom. He said how hard that was for him, to clean up your own child’s blood.

Me and my dad haven’t been doing good. We’re both on medication. My dad has been trying to get me into a hospital every single day for four months. My dad now pays for health insurance which he can not afford, just so I can get the help I need. I still suffer with borderline, depression, severe anxiety and chronic suicidal thoughts.

Last month my best friend died. He was everything to me. He was my absolute world. He was the number one reason that I kept pulling through, he was always my reason to live. My best friends name was Quint, and he was a black kelpie cross Labrador, the most sweetest dog anyone had known. He was my soul mate, and everyone could see our bond. Last month he was hit by a car outside of our house. I laid next to him as he died. I was comforting him the entire time. I told him he is the goodest boy in the whole world and I love him so much. God, I’m crying a lot now. I try not to think about it. But I was there. I watched the light fade. I laid with him and my best friend was dying and no one could do anything.

We moved a few days after. My dad and I were couch surfing until a few weeks ago when we found a house in Queensland. I’ve never had a place that feels like home. I always said that Quint was my home- wherever he is is where I belong. But this feels like home now.

I’ve recently started therapy due to a stroke of luck. He’s a private psychologist (whos bills are causing us to be broke), and the only reason he accepted me was because a friend of ours who is high up in the medical industry, referred me. I only got accepted because her name was on the referral.

So here’s where we’re at now. I’m finally in therapy. I love my psychiatrist, he is so sweet. I’ve seen him for 6 weeks and we’re still in introductory because I have so much history to get through. It’s the first time in my life where I’ve been dedicated to getting better. I don’t want to be a sad story. But it is very, very hard. My dad’s bipolar and my borderline end up clashing a lot and we get into huge arguments and he says such incredibly hurtful things to me. I know he loves me and he doesn’t mean it, but it doesn’t take the pain away from what he has said. 

We both are very broke. My mental illnesses make me unfit for work, so I’m on government benefits which is around $250 a week. My dad is also on benefits because of his disorder, but he makes money from music gigs since he is a country music artist- though not a lot of money. After bills, I have $50 left over and that is spent on food for 2 weeks. One of my favourite things in the world is to sit at a café with a coffee. I know it’s a bit pathetic, but my goal in life is to be able to do that whenever I want. I want enough money to not have to check my bank account to see if I have $6 for a coffee. It’s a simple dream so maybe I’ll be able to achieve it. It sounds so depressing when I write it, but honestly that is what I wish for. I will happily say that my life is successful when I can do that.

I have a lot of good days, but my ‘good days’ aren’t good enough. A good day is getting out of bed and doing something like the washing. Most days I lay in my bed exhausted from my constant nightmares and lack of sleep. I have suicidal thoughts each day. I’m trying to not give in to them, but I’ve been so close to death before and the feeling was indescribable. I told my dad a few days ago that I don’t look before crossing the road, hoping a car might hit me and I will die. He was pretty shocked. I don’t tell people my problems, and it’s always a surprise when people find out I have tried to end my life, because I always appear happy. He said that one day I will want to be alive, and I will look both ways before I cross the street. That kind of hit me. Imagine wanting to be alive. I know that my life is not the worst, and my current situation from an outside perspective is pretty good. Yes I’m Transgender, yes I’m broke, yes my dad is gay and has a beautiful partner who I love. But we’re doing our best, and I’m thankful for what I do have because I know what it’s like to have nothing. But I imagined for the first time that there is a possibility I might want to be alive one day. I just don’t have a reason, but I want to find a reason good enough to live.

My current problems involve how broke me and my dad are. My dad is in debt due to paying for me to get help. I feel so guilty because I don’t feel like I deserve anything. But he has spent thousands of dollars on me, he said “because I love you and I believe you will get well.”

On top of my borderline, my psychiatrist has diagnosed me with five other illnesses. My anxiety is so bad that I’m afraid to leave the house, and if I do, I’ll have panic attacks. 

I said my dream is to be able to buy a coffee whenever I want. But what I want more than that is just to make my dad happy. I’ve seen him struggle, seen him cry, seen him furious because of me. He’s paid for all my help, he’s bought my medications, he’s stopped me from drinking, he’s taught me right from wrong, he’s taught me that I am worth helping. My goal is actually to get well, for him. To know that his efforts haven’t been wasted. I don’t want to have my dad find me on the bathroom floor one day. He said that he would take his life if I did. I don’t want his suffering to have been for nothing. I want to make him proud.

Wow, I’m crying so much. I usually try to ignore my problems but recently I’ve been more open to them because I know I need to accept my reality in order to get better. Things have just been so hard for everyone. And I lost my best friend, and then my dog passed away, and then my only other friend said she couldn’t handle my trauma anymore- the same friend who walked me to emergency when I wanted to die, because she’s been in the same position. 

At the moment I feel like I have lost everything. I am suffering, but I try my hardest to be happy, or atleast a fake happy that I sometimes believe is real. I have my beautiful cat who I love to pieces. But I’ve got no goals, I don’t know where to go from here. I’m too sick to work so I want to study, but I don’t know what. I didn’t think I would ever be alive right now so I never planned a future. But I’m happy to say that I do see a future for myself, I just hope that it is not as bad as I imagine it to be. 

There’s a lot of things I’m missing out. Trying to tell your whole life is very difficult. But I wanted to explain my situation the best I could and give reasons as to why my mind is so sick.

If you could donate anything, I would be incredibly thankful. I want to pay my dad back for everything and I don’t want him to be so broke because of me. I want to be able to buy a coffee when I want to. I want to be financially stable so I could see a better future for myself. I want to get better for my dad, but also more recently, I want to get better for me; that’s something I’ve never felt before.

Any donation would be so appreciated. I thank you very much if you’ve read all this 💙

Here’s a bit more positive things about me: I love animals to pieces. I fall in love with every dog. I have many friends and they are all part of the lgbt+ community. I love playing the piano and songwriting/singing. I love film, I love art, I just love to be creative and tell stories in any way I can. A lot of people on my Instagram say I am inspirational to them. I like to think that I help people when I talk about my struggles and how I cope. I love people, I find them all unique and interesting, and I will try to help every person I meet. I love saltana bran, there’s a small strange but positive fact about me.

Like I said, any donation is so much appreciated. I appreciate your time and your donation and if you share this post. Thank you 💙

Assistance to move/pay off invoices

Hello everyone!

My name is Holli. I am in need of a bit of assistance to move from my family home to a home with my partner. With them paying what bills they can in the home, they aren’t able to set aside much, if anything, to help me out. I am currently job hunting for anything I can do, even odd jobs here and there, so I can save up money to move my things. I am a qualified Assistant Nurse, and plan to study further as an Enrolled Nurse in the near future when I am settled. I unfortunately do not have an open license which makes things a whole lot harder but plan to go for my Ps in the next few weeks. I spend my spare time doing digital art and photography of my dogs and cats.

Before I move, I need to pay off a few bills to take the stress off my Mother who has done so much for me in my life. I want to pay off my current course in Youth Work which has about $350 left on it, and my car service of about $400 and my Mother’s car service at about $500 so she doesn’t have to worry about those so much. She is stressed out so much trying to get her service paid off with her income, and I want to take that off her if I can.

For the move itself, I need to be able to get at least $3,500 as an estimated total to pay for flights for my animals and myself, for my furniture to be moved and for my car to be moved. I wish to be out of the home in the next few months if possible so I can begin my life with my partner.

Anything at all is incredibly appreciated. I will continue to do my absolute best to earn what money I can to get the ball rolling too.

Thank you so much for taking a moment to read this, and I hope you have a wonderful day.

I’m in a mess

Hi there, I’m not really sure if this will work but it is my last resort and I’m running out of ideas what to do so here goes.

I’m Hannah and I’m 26, originally from the UK, but currently living in Australia. Long story short I am in crippling debt, Im struggling to find a job, I’m barely making rent, I can’t afford a flight home and am in desperate need of help.

But here is how i ended up in this position.

I made the decision to up my entire life and move down under after a painful break up left me broken and feeling like I had nothing. So I quit my job as a preschool teacher and decided to travel, I spent the first 3 months of my trip volunteering all across south east Asia, helping to build schools and teaching English and in turn they began to help rebuild my broken heart. I gained a sense of purpose again and with that I decided I was ready to take the next step in rerouting my life, and made the choice to move to Australia.

This is where my problems started. With it being such a spur of the moment trip, I hadn’t really planned ahead with getting work, accommodation etc I’d just taken word of mouth from others that it’d be easy to find once I was there. How wrong I was. My first thought was to try and get a job in teaching however unfortunately my degree (Education studies) does not transfer over to Australia and so my qualification doesn’t count, a 3 year degree that I can apparently only use in the UK. I then decided to get a job as an Au Pair however an environment that at first was amazing, quickly turned sour. I would work every hour of the day for this family, making sure their kids were well looked after and enjoying themselves, I would cancel plans to help them, I would get up for them in the night when the baby would cry, however it was never enough. They would create extra tasks constantly so that I never had a break, I was forced to stay and watch tv with the mother at night and be her ‘friend’ instead of exploring Sydney when I planned to, I was beck and call for this family yet they would still withhold my pay because I ‘wanted to go for a drink with a friend and not stay in with them’. I knew I needed to get out, but by this point I had been travelling for 4 months using most of my savings, and having very rarely been paid by the family, had little in AUD to fall back on either.

So I got a second job. And for a few weeks things seemed to get back on track and having the extra work helped with the escape from the family, but then that also all came crashing down on me when I received the message that the restaurant was closing effective immediately due to financial issues. And I received no pay for the 3 weeks/48 Hours that I had worked for them. Just another crushing blow.

I then received another job offer for a sales role, and I was overjoyed as it meant I could finally escape the family, have my freedom back and enjoy my experience. So I found a flat and began working. At first everything seemed great, and then just as I was reaching the end of my 2 week training period, the company said that they would ‘have to let me go’ along with the 5 other trainees, due to low need for employees, and that training is not paid. I was then left in an even worse situation with no job, no income and rent to pay. So I made the rash decision to increase my overdraft limit on my UK travel account in order to keep paying rent. Within the space of 2 days I applied for 137 jobs, none of which got back to me or the ones who did couldn’t accept my visa type. In the midst of this I lost my other bank card without realising (as i rarely used that one) so by the time I realised I had been rinsed of my remaining £900 through card copying and scammers, and unfortunately as this happened in abroad and without me noticing immediately, there is apparently nothing they can do about it.

At this point I was in one overdraft by £750, my other had been rinsed and I was in that by £1500, I had no Australian income and $275 worth of rent to pay each week. I was getting in to panic mode, my job applications were up the roof yet I was still struggling to find a way out. So I applied for a payday loan (£200) to help me with one weeks rent to bide me some time.

I am currently still struggling to find a job, in the last week I have been to 12 interviews but am yet to get a job either due to my visa restrictions or my degree not being accredited. I’m also now in danger of falling behind on my loan fees, overdraft fees and my rent.

I have reached breaking point and feel like I am in this hole that I just can’t get out of, and instead keep getting more and more trapped. I’m stuck in a foreign country, with no job, no friends and no money and all I want to do right now is go home, go back to my secure job and family. If there is anyone out there who would be able to help, even just the slightest, I would be forever grateful. I just want the opportunity to build my life back up again and get myself out of this financial disaster.

In short, I’m a prime example of backpacking gone wrong. I own up to my mistakes and take full responsibility, but right now, all I want to do is go home and I need your help in doing that.

Thanks In advance,

Hannah

Money for a car

Hello. I find myself here today because for a while now I have been trying to look for a way to make an extra income so I can get myself a car. I know a lot of questions might pop into your head like why don’t you get another job, ask your parents, save up. I do have one job and it’s casual so I only get 2 3hr shifts a week and most of that money goes to paying for my phone bill. Both of my parents don’t work and they receive government benefits that goes towards paying rent and grocery shopping. I have tried to save in the past but there has always been something that comes up and I have to use my savings. I would like to get a second job but it’s quite hard to find a job when most require you to have a license and car. I have looked online for ways to earn quick cash. I have done the online surveys, little jobs for people close to me, selling some of my old stuff that I don’t use anymore but it has been months now since I have been doing those other options and I never have any money left over to save. I really hate living paycheck to paycheck and I know that if I could just get a car I could find a good paying job and start helping my parents out and myself out as well. I really am just trying to rely on the kindness of strangers now. I feel really embarrassed asking for money like this but there really is no other way. I have tried many options and none of them seem to work. If this option works then I would consider myself really lucky that there are people out there who out of the kindness of there own heart would help people out like this and whoever is reading this I hope they find comfort in knowing that I do not take kindness and generosity for granted and that I do not see this as a gift or a favour but rather an exchange because I will pay this forward some day if I’m able to receive help I too will one day help somebody else in need because I now how much it would matter to someone even the smallest gesture. I also hope that it would bring comfort to know that I will find a way to pay you back every cent given to me because I know that if I can get a car I can get a better job and pay you back slowly slowly.
To end I would just like to say thank you in advance and I hope this works out for the best.

Avoiding Bankruptcy

Dear Potential lifesaver,

To be honest, I have no idea how to start this request? I’ve never put my hand out for anything in my life with the exception of a few parent loans over the years. I’ve recently come into a spot of bother.

I used to work away a lot and pretty much most of my life was FIFO oriented working 12/14 hour shifts for up to two weeks with a week off. I worked on mine sites and other industries as a writer. I made good money and life was good. I recently came home to find the locks had been changed in my home by my wife. She has stated that she no longer wants me around as “I never want to do anything” and “I was never there”.
I returned to writing as it offered enough financial reward to support our family (I have two beautiful daughters 4&6 years old) and to support my wife as she was studying to be a lawyer. I did the above for around 8 years where I was the sole breadwinner.
Unfortunately, during the course of our relationship I incurred various credit card debts namely for house renovations and related activities. Due to poorly reported taxes and BAS statements, I also incurred debts from the tax department. I entered into what is called a voluntary insolvency agreement and started to pay back everything I owed. I did so for more than a year until the day I came home to find I no longer had a home and my wife stated she wants a divorce.

I had nowhere to go except the mine I currently lived at whilst on-shift. I managed to pack what clothes I had into my car and sneak them into my room on-camp.

It was during that time I was informed that the current contract I was on was no longer going to be renewed (a common thing on mine sites in Australia). So panic set in.

Fortunately, I have another skill set as a commercial pilot, but only a bare licence without the multi-engine instrument rating enabling me to seek employment in the airlines. I had always wanted to complete this, but whilst working away so much I had no other choice but to continue doing what I was doing at the mines in order to support my family and pay my debts. (A bare commercial licence does not pay well in Aus). So I always forgot the idea as soon as it came into my head.

Looking for ideas on what to do next, I had heard of a local flight school who could complete my training and make me job ready whilst also providing me with accommodation. I jumped at the chance and here I am now studying for my Multi Engine Command Instrument Rating.

My wife and I have placed the house up for sale and my debts remain….and I’m up to my neck in it almost $100k. I have a large number of organisations seeking their money and will be left with no other option to go bankrupt unless I can seek some form of help. I’m a good bloke who has NEVER shy’d away from hard work and has ALWAYS put my money where my mouth is. I’m honest and trustworthy. I just don’t know what to do? Yes, I have no job at present, but that is short term until I can source my first flying gig, but my wage will never cover the amounts I owe. I just want the nightmare to stop? The phone calls to stop, the never ending explanations to companies to stop.
Due to unknown reasons, I have not been granted access to my children by my wife. I’m not a violent man, I not an abusive man nor have I been screwing around or been dishonest? My whole life has completely gone down the toilet and I have lost everything. I sincerely hope someone can help. I’m trying and will get there, but the weight of debt is such that every day is a bloody nightmare I just don’t know what else to do?
I thank you a million times for any help. It won’t help with my relationship I’m sure, but will go a long way to stop the pain and bitterness on both sides. We are in a hole.

Reaching for humanity

If you had asked me any amount of time ago if I thought I would ever be doing this, I would have laughed. Well, here I am. I am proud, I am hard working, I have a family and I have amazing friends. I work full time, I help anyone I can and I’ve now come to a point in my life where I am the one that needs help.

My partner started his business a couple of years ago and like any other venture, there was ups and downs but in our case, downs won.

To give our story in short… He received his electrical license and started his own business. Three years later we receive a letter in the mail and aggressive phone calls to tell us that the company he went through was shut down and in fact jailed for running fraudulent businesses. His license was taken away and no one wanted to speak to us about our options or how to change this. That course cost us almost $10,000.

Now, to get his license again, we need an additional $10,000 to start all over again with someone else.

All of this along with other debts we have accumulated means we are drowning in over $50,000 worth of debts.

I’ve reached breaking point. I don’t know where to turn and I have decided to put my faith in humanity and ask for help.

I promise that one day, somehow, I will help someone else to get their life back on track too.

I’m 56, desperate and needing a loan – no home, no car, no future.

P4020070 (1024x992) (400x388).jpg

I am 56, childless, alone, have no family and despite putting one foot in front of the other every single day, wake up to no joy no matter how hard I try.  I dream that I wake up and find that one person in this world reads this (SORRY ITS LONG) story of my life and says, ‘I’m going to help this person’.  What I really want is a loan for AUD$41,500 that I can pay back to you at AUD$1,200 per month so I’m not asking for charity but life has got so difficult and desperate I thought I would see if GOFUNDME can help in some way.

Another way to help me is to SHARE this or link my GoFundMe page through your Facebook friends/associates asking them in turn to share my story with their group. This way I could expand the search for someone to help me.  

I created a blog titled, Survive A Loan & Hopeful that will hopefully provide more information about why I am so desperate for financial assistance.  Please also check my FACEBOOK  page so that you can see I actually am a real person with a history and not a fly-by-night scammer.

INTRODUCTION:

My name is Kimanie-Lee Roper (nee Jones) and created a GOFUNDME campaign in the exceptional hope that someone out in the world will notice my story and give me the much needed help I require to not only be released from the immense stress I endure every day worrying about money but to try and get well again.  In short, due to various circumstances I will outline below, I require AUS$41,500 to consolidate my various debts so that would free me up to pay back AUS$1,200 per month to whomever can help me with a loan.  I am more than willing to sign a contract and take out loan protection insurance to ensure than a person lending me the money is covered in the event of my death.  I am also happy to pay interest on the loan.  The problem is I will only be able to commence repayments once my loans are paid out however.  I estimate that I can pay back the entire amount in approximately 2.5 years discounting interest.

If someone cannot help me with a loan, I decided to put my story on GoFundMe praying that people may read my story and help me try to clear some of the loans so that I might be able to afford to live each month because as it is, after every loan is paid, I have no money in which to afford necessities.  As of today (04/07/19) I have $20 with a phone bill due and other medical bills that I simply cannot pay off.

LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES:

I have worked all my life and went back to University in 1999 as a mature aged student.  In 2001 I used to work for a Government Department working with people on Parole and Community Based Orders and in the course of my work was held hostage in an interview room by a client armed with two serated knives pasted to their body.  No one knew I was in the interview room and I was assaulted for over an hour before I managed to tackle my way out of the room, through the foyer and open a security door where I narrowly avoided being stabbed in the spine.  The knife came down as I managed to shut the door. Unfortunately my employer completely mishandled my situation and I received no internal or external assistance and because the incident was basically neglected, felt pressure to work years after the incident. The Department was found to be negligent and I received a nominal payment after they ceased their contract with me in 2014. In 2011 I ran into the offender who recognized me and made motions to retaliate and I officially had a breakdown being diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Major Depressive Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder.  I received psychiatric treatment both as an involuntary and voluntary patient of mental health services and have had approximately 10 hospital admissions resulting in two bouts of ECT.   I remain unable to work with severe psychiatric impairment and receive ongoing Workcover payments.

In May of 2012 after the breakdown and whilst still struggling with my mental health, my ex-husband was recuperating from prostate cancer. He woke up and told me that he was in love with his cousin who resided in Queensland (I live in Melbourne) and within 1 hour had packed his car and left our marital home to drive to her.  I was left with 4 mortgages to settle on 4 properties.  He was over 18 years older than I and the news was utterly devastating as I loved him more than life itself.  I was to never see or hear from him again except through our respective solicitors as we formulated a financial settlement.  Within two months of him leaving and seriously struggling with my mental health and trying to pay back the banks, my mother who lived with me at that stage was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and given a couple of months to live.  I nursed her at home until her death 2 days before my 50th birthday.  I do not have any siblings, aunts, uncles, grandparents.  My family on my mother’s side nearly all died from Huntington’s Disease, a terrible legacy to live with. I am completely on my own without family.  Within 3 months I lost my sanity, my husband, my step family, my mother and my home.

When I thought I couldn’t take anymore, I was forced to pay my ex-husband a large lump sum from the settlements of the properties plus my superannuation and he was permitted to keep the entire sum of his father’s will as he was beneficiary.  Despite the fact that I was not working, had a breakdown, and was grieving the loss of my mother, the Court mediation determined that he was 70 years old and would  never work again so he received a handsome settlement even though he got to share the asset’s owned by his new partner.  I had to borrow a large sum of money to pay him out and try as I might, ended up having to sell my home as I just couldn’t afford the repayments and upkeep.

I am currently homeless and do not own a car.  A dear friend lets me live with her and I do not possess a vehicle so am essentially stuck in a rural area without transport.  If not for the kindness of my friend, I would be on the streets as I do not even have $50 per fortnight left to live on.

From the time I was left on my own, I have had to borrow money to move my furniture/belongings and put it into storage, had numerous medical issues and circumstances that have necessitated me borrowing from high interest lending companies as traditional banks will not loan to people receiving Workcover.  My Workcover payments are in place until retirement and I have been through mediation with my employer which guarantees I will receive this payment on an ongoing basis.  I now only receive a portion of my wage and I just can’t manage anymore having no money left at the end of each fortnight.  I am forced to hire a container to house all of my personal belongings which I have not had the pleasure to see since 2014.

MEDICAL ISSUES:
Since 2011 I have suffered from these medical issues and have undergone numerous medical procedures whereby I have had to borrow money:

* PTSD, Major Depressive Disorder, Generalised Anxiety Disorder (approximately 10 admissions into hospital some as long as 2 months) including suicidal ideation.
* 29 teeth extractions under General Anesthetic due to developing a gum infection.
* Emergency staphylococcus aureus knee infection.
* Type 11 poorly controlled diabetes insulin using (long and fast acting day long application).
*  Vascular stents left and right leg.
* Left artery heart stent.
* Total thyroidectomy.
* Removal vocal nodules/tumor (Yet to be done).
* Left eye sclerosis.

PRE 2011:
* 14 x laparoscopy for endometriosis.
* 2 x laparotomy for endometriosis (full stomach surgery).
* Full hysterectomy.
* Epidural abscess at T11 & 12 resulting in meningitis – post operative epidural for pain relief during laparotomy and contracted golden staph.
* 4 x miscarriages (went through IVF and was never blessed with a living child). * Auto Immune Disease Ankylosing Spondylitis.

MY LOANS:

I owe the following to various loan companies.  As you can see, if I could pay back the loans which leaves me one amount, it will negate the huge interest and allow me to be free and clear of debt in 2.5 years.

Loan Company $5,000
Loan Company $3,000
Loan Company $9,500 (was initially $20,000 so I managed to reduced this)
Loan Company $2,780
Loan Company $5,139
Loan Company $ 211
Credit Card $2,000
Friend $2,500

FEELING SAFE AGAIN: 

I was a very proud person who would normally never disclose my ‘dirty laundry’ in public but consistent fear is a strange monster…it makes you do things you would not normally do.  If anyone would have told me I would share such personal information on-line, exposing one’s self to possible ridicule, I would have said you’re crazy.  But my friends, desperation takes one to places you would never believe.  I decided to start a blog in the hope someone would read it and take a chance on me but even there, I’m writing it to no-one as I don’t know how to promote such a blog to get a readership.

If you are able to help me, I will forever be in your debt.  Please contact me and I will do everything in my power to ensure that your ‘investment’ is sound and protected.  I am trying to be as transparent as is possible in this type of forum.

As it is, I literally have $20 left to last me until Thursday 05/07/19 and then it starts again, no money left over the next fortnight.  My phone will be switched off by then as I simply don’t have the funds to run a mobile anymore which further alienates me from the outside world.  If not for my friend feeding and putting a roof over my head, I would be a statistic on the streets of Melbourne.

I am one of the invisible one’s.  A 56 year old woman with no family, no home, no car, physically and mentally unwell and getting worse by the day.

My blog link is https://kimala84.wixsite.com/survivea-loan

WHAT WOULD IT MEAN TO ME IF YOU COULD HELP?:

Literally it would mean the world to me.  The dream to wake up one morning and not be scared is something I cannot imagine anymore but if you take a chance on me, either by donation or if you are in a position to loan me the money for which you WILL be paid back, I will pay it forward.

Blessings to you and yours,
Kimanie-Lee Jones (Roper)

Support would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,

I am a budding filmmaker, my goal is to raise funds for a 4K film camera to enable me to follow my dream.

My dream is to make films on mental health issues: depression, anxiety etc everything under that umbrella, the harsh effects of bullying, addiction, suicide prevention all types of topics that will raise awareness of important issues that are in the world where positive change needs to be made.

I have personally suffered from depression, anxiety & mental health issues, along with close family members & friends.

I hope I can make a positive change in some way, that may help others through their personal struggle or assist carers, loved ones and friends to understand what we go through.

With hope, these films will make a positive impact and this world a better place.

My mission in life is to do anything I can to help raise awareness on important issues and the best way to reach the masses is through film making, hence why I recently made a career change into film making.

I hope you can support me with this cause.

If we don’t ask, you don’t get.

Over the years I have supported SO many people with their causes.

For the first time ever in my life, I am asking for help this time.

Any support would be greatly appreciated, even the price of a small coffee, every little bit will help.

If you can’t afford to donate, sharing this might be a nice gesture, regardless I totally understand.

I’m just a girl chasing my dreams.

I hope you are chasing yours and I will support you in whatever way I can too, just reach out to me.

The first film I produce, all the people who donated to this cause will all be mentioned in the credits under the title “without their donations and support this film would not be possible, a very special thank you to;” and l will list your name.

Much love x

Chasing my dream

Where do I start? I love helping people a little too much to the point where I forget to help myself. It doesn’t help that I wanted to be an artist (a sculptor to be precise) when I was younger but life and mostly bills made me face a harsh reality that I cannot survive with my ideals, my unknown name, my unknown face and artistic inclinations so I took to the corporate world, sales and retail. You name it, I’ve done what I can to make an honest living but still just barely breaking even. Being stuck in cubicles facing a computer screen did very little to nourish my soul. Until one day I decided to cook professionally and I simply fell in love with it. I felt like an artist again but this time my medium is good food. I was an apprentice for a few years and that means barely earning a reasonable wage but I pushed on and proved to myself and to naysayers that I have what it takes to make it in this industry- That I can be one of the best chefs this world has ever seen. The only problem I have is that I am not equipped with a good credit score or a big bank account. I made plenty of mistakes in the past and it was mostly “love-related”. I want to make it right. I want to start something small but not diminish the quality of food. I want to buy a double decker bus and convert it into a mobile restaurant that’s highly seasonal and sustainable. I want to serve art on a plate that takes your senses on a culinary journey. I want to introduce my country’s cuisine to every destination I could possibly drive to. I want to share my grandma’s wisdom over soup while breaking bread with customers and people in need. I want to create a dialogue about food and what it means for art sake, culture, ethics and learning how to give back. Eventually the goal is to be able to feed the hungry but for that I need a name. For that I need to be successful and right now, I just need a hand. $50,000 would do the trick. That would ensure a great future for what I believe in- I need a platform and these are the avenues I’m going to take for now. I will make it. I just need a little nudge. If  there’s anyone out there who chooses to help instead of ridiculing a girl for trying- Thank you. Thank you so much.

Chronic Pain Hindering Career & Study Goals

Hi everyone, I am really hopeful that this will resonate with others that suffer from chronic pain.

I’m 27 years old and have chronic pain that is getting in the way of my goals. After suffering from hormonal issues my weight ballooned to 308lb, which I thought was the reason for my pain. Since 2016 I have lost 110lb and am sitting around 198lb, which is AMAZING and I am so happy with how hard I have worked to lose it. Unfortunately, even with losing the weight my chronic pain issues are getting worse and not better.

I take 4 different medications every day to ease the pain. One is an anti-depressant, one is an NSAID, one is to stop the possibility of ulcers forming in my stomach and the last is for energy. I have found that a spray originally made to desensitize the male “downstairs” area is the cheapest way to ease neck and back pain with topical anaesthetic as it’s active ingredient. I see a physio every two weeks, I try and walk 5km once a week, do bodyweight exercises once a week and stretch/foam roll every single day.

I really enjoy doing a lot for myself. I have studied graphic design at university and event management through an online college. I have completed both courses. I would like to continue studying, doing short courses on sustainable living and horticulture some day.

I have been working as much as possible through my study to keep on top of normal bills and rent, and without the medical bills I would be able to afford the basics in my life with no issues. These excess costs are overwhelming!! I wish I could say that I’m not in debt over ongoing costs, but I am – and I can’t keep up with repayments and the interest is getting the better of me.

I am trying really hard to be able to do everything I want to do – work and study, pace myself, but still not miss out on living my life. To try and save money and still be social I volunteer with some really cool organisations that plan events for people that like either science or fitness. The 5km I walk once a week is usually at Parkrun (which is a free timed 5km that happens at 8 am on Saturday morning in parks all over the globe!) and that is a bit of a community event so I can be social then too.

I have just started getting more tests done to help find out if there is anything that can be done further or differently, as I don’t want to be stuck on anti-depressants if I’m not depressed. The tests are going to cost a lot of money, and on top of physio appointments and medication, I don’t know how I’m going to afford it all. I just can’t give up yet.

I’m young, I have so much I want to do.

That said, I am stuck in a vicious cycle of not having enough money to do the things I need to do because of medical bills. Sometimes I have to spend more than what I get in my paycheck. My chronic pain is a pain in itself, but my financial situation is holding me back from finding a way forward to achieve the things I want to achieve.

Maybe you can relate. Maybe you had chronic pain when you were younger and understand how much of a financial burden it is. How much of a mental burden it is. How much it would mean if someone that understood and could afford to lend a helping hand, helped in a way that you couldn’t thank them for enough.

Thank you for reading, and I am so grateful for any support you are able to provide.

Overdue Bills and Depression

Hi there, I’m not even too sure if anyone will read this. But if you are reading this, thank you for taking the time to.

I guess I’ll start by saying I am a 19 year old guy from the very bottom of the South Island in New Zealand. My parents divorced when I was 5 and it never really impacted me until I started High School. When I began High School I developed severe Social Anxiety which later developed into Generalized Anxiety Disorder. I have also been battling pretty bad depression after a really bad breakup at the start of 2017. I thought it was love, and it hurt like love. Since 2016 I have been on antidepressants and a part of me wishes I never started taking them as I can hardly remember life before them. I have seen a handful of Psychiatrists, and I saw a Psychologist every week for a few years. Anyway, cut to where i am now, I am still living at home but I cannot make ends meet. I have had a few jobs but I always end up finding something that makes me anxious there and I can only focus on that. And because of that I am currently unemployed but actively looking for work that I am capable of doing! I have an already overdue phone bill that goes up $140+ a month. And on-top of that, my car’s warrant of fitness and registration have both expired and it would be at least $100 to pay off both of those. I have been through tough times before but they have never been as bad as what I’m going through right now. I know there are millions, possibly billions, of people out there who have it worse than me but we each have our own personal hell, and I happen to be going through mine right now. I’m not asking for too much, just enough to get me back on my feet. I will give back when I can, to my community and the world itself. I want to do good, I’m just finding it hard to even get out of bed right now. If you have made it this far, thank you, from the bottom of my heart. And if you happen to be so kind and generous enough to help me out financially, I will forever be grateful to you.

Urgent breast surgery

My names Sarah and I never thought I’d be in the position where I am telling my ‘sob story’ and asking for help online but hey here we are.

Basically, I have breast implants, one of them has ruptured and I need to have them replaced as it is slowly poisoning me as it leaks.

Unfortunately I am in no financial position to have this surgery and my family are fighting their own battles medically so I am unable to get any assistance from them.

On Friday I was told that the company I work for are going broke and I have 2 weeks left of employment so have the added pressure of looking for another job so I can continue to pay my rent and bills and try to save for the surgery.

For my surgery I need close to $11,000 and am doing all I can to get it. I am doing side jobs where I can as well as my normal Monday to Friday (while that lasts) and where my health allows it. The leaking is making me quite ill so I have to push myself through to keep the money coming in so I can get the surgery done. It’s bit of a struggle but I just want to get better so am focussed on the solution rather than the problem.

My credit isn’t great and I am unable to get a loan on top of the minimal credit card I already have. This is what happens when you trust a boyfriend (now ex thank goodness) who turns out to be a drug addict, takes all your money, leaves you to default on loans and basically sends you completely broke and starting again at the age of 30.

I’ve never been one to ask for help, I’ve always been the one to give it. I believe if you give out good, good will come back to you. Even though I don’t have a lot I always help those around me where I can.

This is the first time I have asked for assistance from anyone and to be honest it is killing me to do so however if I don’t get the money I am slowly physically dying so it’s bit of a catch 22.

I am single and don’t have that support of a partner to get me through this and I want to be able to live the rest of my life happy and healthy and find that person that is right for me but while I am so sick and working so many hours and basically just trying to survive I can’t find that and get that support.

I don’t want people to feel sorry for me, I am just hoping there are people out there who read this and just want to help someone who is really struggling, who is a regular person, with a regular life. I would be so appreciative to anyone who can help no matter how big or small your donation. Every little bit helps.

The brutality of being old and gay.

The gay scene is dominated by the young and beautiful and sadly there are many who use their youth as a tool to deceive silver daddies (mature men with grey hair) for financial gain.

My personality type is to look for the best in people and I have no regrets in being kind and generous to those in need.  Good intentions lead to positive outcomes……or do they?

In 2018, after being befriended by an intelligent 25 year old man with a charismatic personality and a cheeky smile, I was drawn into his world with stories of misfortune and disadvantage. As immigrants, his family struggled when his father passed away shortly after arriving in Australia. He was the only male with 3 young sisters and was unable to pursue his medical studies in order to work and support his family. It was evident that his potential was being smothered by obligation and it became my mission to help him get his life back on track. I was prepared to take on more debt in order to help him with food, rent, transport, medical expenses and studies.

I am certain that you have now assumed, after reading the above, that this was a sexual relationship, however this was not the case. I truly took on the role of father, carer and mentor, or so I thought?

After losing my job in March 2019 a friend took me away for two weeks to collect my thoughts. While away, communications from my young friend suddenly stopped. Upon returning home I was unable to reach him or locate him. After several days of no contact, I feared something serious had happened to him, even possibly death, therefore I googled his name hoping to find clues or answers.

What I did uncover was a world of lies and deception as profiles appeared with information contradicting stories, he had told me. Friends started contacting me telling me how he had stolen from them and further stories of false identity, fraud, prostitution and drug dealing began to unfold. I was soon to discover my savings had been accessed and spyware had been installed on my mobile phone. I was left standing as a foolish, gullible and stupid old man trying to make sense of it all?

And that brings me up to today. It has now been 8 weeks since losing my job and no source of income as a result. I have not yet had success in acquiring a replacement job and although I have registered for unemployment benefits, my request is yet to be approved. With rent, gas and electricity to pay and several financial institutions chasing me for payment, life has become a struggle. I am eternally grateful to friends and family who have assisted in small ways, but my stupidity is no longer their burden to bear. My request is for a rescue package of $5,000 to help get my debt in order and to pay back friends and family.

Help with debt

Hello, I’m a 25 year old male. I’ll admit that after reading some of the other request on here mine doesn’t seem all that important but I have gotten my self into an overwhelming amount of financial debt and its a suffocating feeling that I’m trying my best to get out of. I took a bunch of same day loans that I couldn’t afford to pay back totalling in 12,000 dollars and then got hit with a government bill of 20,000 because I was getting the wrong payments for over 2 years and didn’t notice so I have to pay it all back I have paid off 5,000 so far but am struggling to get through it I would love any help I can get so I can get back on top of my life and finally start making money for myself and not losing it all to debt I know it is all self inflicted and I’m paying for mistakes I made when I was younger but in really struggling with it thank you for your help.

Sick Dad and School Funds :(

Wow okay I don’t really know where to start but I guess I should introduce myself maybe? My name is Charlette, I’m 18 and to put it bluntly my dad is dying. On new years eve I left work to find out he had been admitted to hospital following a massive seizure a few hours earlier. Fast forward hours later and we’re told there’s a mass in the brain that looks like it’s bleeding into itself and needs to be removed immediately. The next day most of it is cut out and sent off to be tested, to see whether it’s malignant or benign, primary or secondary. Cut to  a week later and it’s the worst case scenario, stage 4 glioblastoma calling my 57 year old dad’s brain its home.
This isn’t exactly why I’m asking for money though, my dad was a crane operator and was the main money maker in the family. Last year I enrolled in a tafe course that costs around $1000. I had a stable job with a steady income and all was fine but with dad not able to look after himself I had to leave that job and take care of him while mum works to try and keep us financially stable.
I’m not asking for much, honestly I feel bad taking money from people but I have no way of affording any of my course fees and I’m in danger or not passing if I don’t.
I’ve looked into centrelink but by their calculations my parents are “earning too much” and my one day of tafe a week obviously doesn’t count as full time study so there’s no benefits there.

Sorry this is all a jumble I’ve never done something like this before, but I do hope someone sees and understands, any little thing helps. Thank you and God bless <3

Please help My Friend, She really need help! Desperate

Hi, I am sorry till now i have failed to solve her financial trouble. I never thought i would ask online or any donations for this but I am feeling desperate and failed.

I have tried everything, Sold my car, took personal loan and everything in my range, as i am not rich.

During her family hardship time she borrowed money from her friend and now her friend is getting married soon and asking the money back all sudden. Total borrowed was $ 60,000.  Within four months all i was able to help her  was around ($8000 from my car, $16000 personal loan and $3000 from my income).

Just even getting this much get myself in cash flow problem and near broke and unable to borrow any more to help her. But it would have all been worth it if her problem was solved, but she still own approx  $30000 and i am feeling the pressure and unable to sleep as well. She is very good person and struggling.

I never  would ask any money for myself as i am healthy and able to earn and can return my debts myself slowly. i lived my lived helping other, obeying laws and never ever hurted anyone feelings.

All i want is to be able to raise $30k for her and end her trouble. I would be very thankful from heart if you help her.
