i understand your pain, keep praying and keep your head held high, god works in mysterious ways. I say..donate any change you have to someone who needs help as well..and i promise you, God will give you back what you gave and 10x more. stay positive and stay strong. your family needs your strength, even when its tough, have hope. i feel your pain as i am in a family of 8 and my father is unemployed and disabled. im in college trying to support myself and it is a HUGE struggle. My family is struggling as well but i promise, faith keeps you going.

hope these words of encouragement helped somewhat.

god bless

Man when it rains it pours some time, I am currently working full time, yet have to drive 87 miles one way for work. my transmission went out on the car I drive and I am behind on the balance so I cant get rid of it, must fix it, well its 2500 dollars to fix.
Next, my dumb a@@ drops something cleaning the kitchen onto the range top in the home I rent so the money I started to save, guess what goes to buy a new range top. 400.00.

I have income but I cant get a loan due to credit. so I am slowly paying bills and trying to get ahead by doing the things you are suposed to working, paying child support, keeping up on the bills, just to many bad decitions in the past have made the times hard. have the bills all planned out to get them payed off in 3 years just seems like the time you start to get a head you start to have things happen to bring you behind again. just venting I guess.

I am a bit uncomfortable but very grateful to have found this wonderful site! I would like to review other posts, with some time to think, I will return soon!

I don't really know what to do, i have found out that I am 9 weeks pregnant. i live with my fiancee and roommates, and we are not getting along with our roommates at all. Our lease is up in august but i don't think we can last that long living here with them. I would like to move out as soon as we get our tax refunds but i'm afraid they will sue us if we leave early. we are not the lease holders just residents in the apartment. and really the only place that we can afford is a studio apartment and i'm afraid that will be to small when the baby arrives. I work part time at toys r us and i make good money during xmas season but then once it is over i make barely enough money to pay the rent. my fiancee is unemployed and getting unempolyment, so at least he can pay the rent but it seems no one is hiring now. He has put out a million apps and we haven't gotten one phone call.

my parents cannot help me with this and i don't know what to do, i feel like this stress of being pregnant, living with people that we hate/hate us, and making little money is killing me and my unborn child.

 in response to seekinghelp2012...   how do you eat an elephant? one bite at a time. the answer is a snowball effect with a livable budget. key word livable. you cannot live on romen noodles and staying home. but you can eliminate that debt on your own con-solidation places are just that. even if they are ligit and mean well the power needs to lye on you. i have done this too. live and learn trust me snow ball that 500.oo a month in ten months you would have taken care of 5,000 of that debt, but at the rate it will go faster than that. because your other debts will be eliminated entirely. write down all of you debts even if there is an over due library book. 1 dollars. to largest debt home mortguage. pay only the minimum payments on all of them and focus the remaining money on the smallest or smallest 2-3 debts say a furniture bill or small credit card. and then pour the savings into next months debts and repeat. i got a easy to under stand from a chapter in the book called "Getting control: the complete guide to getting yourself out of horrible debt by troy flora available on amazon.com good luck! any qestions just ask me. i did it and you can too.

Please is there anyone out there that can help me make some money. I hate to ask for money I would rather work for it, but I have been out of work since 2009 when my father died. I am an only child and have two children and I am the only caregiver for my mother with Alzheimer’s, diabetes and heart disease. I have to provide total care for her. She is on hospice and sometimes she doesn’t even know me. I have been taking care of her since June of last year. I am 52 years old and my only income is my mothers’ social security and that won’t pay all my bills. I have degenerative bone disease and arthritis. I am in constant pain, but can’t afford surgery because; my mother needs around the clock care. I am on the verge of loosing everything. I feel like just dying, at least I wouldn’t be in pain and I wouldn’t have to worry about bills. I have applied for disability, but I am sure I will be denied the first time. Then I will have to hire a lawyer and with no income that would be impossible. I have two master degrees. One in Elementary Guidance and Early Childhood Education. I let my certification run out because I have given up looking for a job. I am CAN certified, but can’t find a job. Plus I can’t leave my mother to work. I have 15 years of data entry by working at The Department of Social Services. I have tried for years to get another job with them, but after putting in over 100 applications I give up, again it is no use to look I can’t leave my mother. I really need a job online, but everywhere I look either they ask for money or they want to know your credit rating, which is ruined because I can’t pay my bills. I owe 50,000 dollars in student loans due to deferment charges. I could do data entry online and any other job online as lone as it doesn’t depend on my credit rating or it asks for money. I have tried online surveys, but never had any luck at that. I even tried a phone sex job, but just couldn’t think of anything sexy to say! Please someone help me. I am paying my mothers bills and mine. I am also taking care of two teenage boys that are eating me out of house and home! I need to make 1,500.00 extra a month to pay bills and to buy groceries. PLEASE, PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE ME A CHANCE. PLEASE PRAY FOR ME I CAN’T SLEEP I AM SO SICK FROM WORRYING HOW AM I GOING TO PAY MY BILLS WHEN NO ONE WILL EVEN GIVE ME A CHANCE!

 in response to bookworm2011...   Little bit of this and a little bit of that. Haha No nothing new. Sounds like you have your hands full. Tell the one who's going to Mexico to be careful. It's deffaniately not like America in most of the country, to much corruption. Just have him keep his eyes open and when someone says duck they aren't talking foul.The one being potty trained, I'm not touchig that with a ten foot pole.You are probably right about the girls, when any kid and I mean any is quit for any length of time count on trouble of some sort.

 in response to Schmidty...   I've been around..doing a little of this, a little of that lol
working mostly and forever busy with my kids..one is about to go to Mexico to build an orphanage so running around trying to get his passport in time..the other is potty training..vast differences! Both extremely important nontheless..and my girls have both been pretty quiet this week, which spells trouble in some form or the other..thats about it, how about you? Anything new?

Things finally starting to look up, thank god!

Hey. That is such a cute dog in your profile picture. I love small dogs. I wish I could have pets were I live. They said i could have fish but who wants a fish. You cant pet it or walk it or play with it.

Wow Derrick:)I read ur story and cant believe the ordeals u have gone thru,I truly ave alot of compassion for you,and many times I wonder why "me","us".I tell u I hit a real bad spot,and I ended up hoding a sign,asking for anukind of assistance,I stood crying,as people with expexivw clothes cars would drive by,but the people whom were on the poor side were right there to help me,even offering to take me get groceries with thier lasr bit of food stamps,which i couldnt,as I felt too bad.I made 23$ that day,with probably 100plus cars,going by.just sad.I feel so many people take advantage of people,and most people are heartless towards people in need:)I will pray for u my friend:)I wish I coiuld do more:)Take care,Jill

 in response to dogeatdog...   Hello, from past experiences I agree with this post.
Have a great day!

 in response to seekinghelp2012...   Consolidating debts is rarely the best way to go in trying to reduce your debt levels. Best thing to do is to develope a budget and a plan and stick to it.

Does anyone know of a place to consolidate debts for persons with bad credit. I would even consider peer to peer lending if there are any wealthy individuals willing to help a single, graduate student, with a full time job. I've suffered some financial misfortunes but I'm trying to get back on track. I need about $50,000 and I can comfortably pay be $450 - $550 per month. Please help in any way that you can and it will be greatly appreciated.

 in response to Schmidty...   Dumb...Dumb....Dumb I sent a message to the your counter partThen I realized after sometime that you had changed your name, had to change your name. I can't figure out why.
All this upgrading that AIDPAGE has done , or at least says they have done has only made it slower and now the one to one is screwed up, it goes to a little white box and hangs up.Can't type nothing, have to go back a page or click out completely. Both of those would surely be a turn on for anyone just coming to the site, it's a shame it use to be a damn good site. Not no more.
Enough , Heres wishing that you have a happy and prosperous new year.Trala boomde a.

Hi AuntGranny. How are you? Not sure if you are still out there, because I see that you were posted a year and a half ago. I find myself in a desperate situation, unemployed, needing money, and facing eviction. I'm scared and embarrased. Can't sleep, so I've been on the internet all night, seeking employment and answers to my predicament. Any words of advice or encouragement would be appreciated. Thank you. Sincerely, CC.

Hi Derek. Sorry to bother you, I see this was posted about a year and a half ago. I was wondering if you would tell me if posting this, actually did help your mom. I'm finding myself in a similar situation, about to be evicted, with nowhere to turn. Not a dime in my pocket. I don't have any family to ask for help. No "wonderful" son, like yourself, willing to take the steps you took to help your mom. Can you tell me how to go about making a posting such as yours, asking for help from the public. I don't know my way around a computer to well. I'm 56, and about to be put out in the street. I'm scared. I hope this finds its way to you, and that you have the compassion to respond. I also hope that you were able to find the help for your mother back when you needed it. Yours sincerely, CC.

Hey all! May God bless each of you in this coming new year. Especially you Bee's Knee's. You have kind of won my heart and what and why that is, leaves me without words! I pray for you often and I know you have messaged me but for some reason I can never find them or, any others for that matter. I don't know. Please take care of yourself and your little ones...I care. The Lord has put my heart close to yours (I'm talking friends in Christ here, please do not take this as I am another sicko looking for a pretty face, I'm not....I am sincere) I wish the best for you and when the time comes I am able to pay forward what the Lord has promised me...you will be the first, one of the first, to know. I am proud to be part of this group that remains "intact" on this site! You guys, and gals, and families are all great and, you know who each of you are! I am so sorry for your struggles and hardships. My prayer is that each and everyone of you will find peace and strength in Christ Jesus. Give your struggles up to God but stand firm...as a warrior would before a charge into battle. Stand firm and use the word of God in prayer and scripture as your weapon, as your sword. In the Bible, look it up, "God's Armor". The only defensive weapon we have is the sword which represents or is symbolic of "God's Word". There's nothing more powerful out there when it comes to fighting evil my friends! We're all super hero's!! If you accept Christ as your Saviour and begin your Journey with God and, do it right....no evil will touch you! It can't! You have to hold up your end of the bargain though! Live clean with God always front and center, above all! Sometimes, we need help. The bottle, the pain killers, the straw, turnikit, needle, the other women, the other man, porn, food. It is Satan's way of keeping a strong hold on you and keeping you away from that "true" commitment to God! Put it down, put it away and walk to wherever you have to go to get the help you need and accept it with open arms! That's God!! Cleanse your soul! It hurts and is next to impossible to do but....once you do?! You will never "need" anything again! Fight? For some....none at all. For others....the fight of your life! That is where prayer comes in! That's where the word comes in! (No I'm not a Pastor) I'm just a guy who has fought battles...a lot of them! You know what? I won every ------- one of them!! Praise God! I have one more I'm fighting right now, finances. Money. Mortgage payments. Foreclosure. Money? You think that would be the easiest? Maybe it is for some but, for some reason for me? That picture of me is like days ago. I just turned 50 and I'm going on 25, Praise God! 6' 3", 230 pounds and stronger and fit as they come! I can work as hard as a man can work and I also have my mind and common sense! Why the hell can't I make it work? I'm standing my ground, prayer, scripture, Bible study, Worship and Praise, Music....I walk by faith, not by sight! I'll get there...because I have the Holy Spirit in me to the point I shake, weep, pray, pray in tongue, play my drums and keep Jesus by my side! I will make it and SO WILL YOU! God bless and make that first step! I know you can do it! - I did! If not for the grace of God...there go I! Johnny boy! (my mom use to always call me that- gone 2 years now, I miss her so).
