I don’t want to stop living at this point of my life. This year has probably been my worst in my almost 70 years. My love and best husband of over 22 years just passed, our beloved dog of 17 years passed just before him, and now the company I’ve been working for around 7 years as an enjoyment is going through hard times and will be closing.
Through all my years the challenges usually only made me stronger but now getting ready to turn 70 I find I don’t have as much energy as I used to stand for 8 hours or do the heavy lifting that some jobs need. Losing part of my income, I thought no problem I would just find another job, not so easy anymore like when I was young.
With the debts left over from my husbands passing, I’ve made attempts to get consolidation loans, personal loans but nothing has come to fruition. Now I have to decide how I can continue to live where I am at, independently, able to afford my bills, which is what I hope I can do, or do I sell out my belongings that I have collected over many years, to put some money together and start over some place where I can afford to live possibly closer to family. I am not ready to give up my independence but things have become so expensive.
I want to pay off all my debts of over $10,000 and start fresh.
Please help me do so.
