Even though I qualified for financial aid, it is still very hard to get enough money for books and other supplies. This will be my first semester back in a year, and looking for some sponsors!
Please help, I don't even have enough for gas maybe lunch. So whatever you can... $1.00 is GREAT!!
We have found out that my grandfather is dying with cancer.
Everything is going wrong. He only lives off of his SS check and his wife does not qualify for SS, she never worked. She is ignorant when it comes to money. He asked us to help her with the funeral when he passes. My father also recently past away from cancer as well. My fathers sisters, my grandfathers daughters, are very upset because they think we killed our father. I'm sure they will be even more furious when they find out that he wants us to handle the funeral arrangements.
My mother and I are also in financial troubles since my father past away. I am asking you to help us start a funeral fund for my grandfather for when the day comes!
Hello,
I would recommend going to see a local non-profit lawyer or financial adviser. They could really help you straighten things out and get on the right track financially!
I think the number one thing right now is to get a roth IRA to start to save for your retirement again. Also, don't get over whellmed with all your bills, if you can't pay, you can't pay.
GOD BLESS!
Looking for a few dollars to make the minimum payment due on my bills. After my father past away we have been so close to being broke. Every month we end up with only $40 in the bank... we don't eat out, I carpool to school and my daughter stays with my mom, she needs to go to a day care to interact with other kids, but can't afford it. Please anything will be very appreciated!
I am a 23 year old mother, wife and full-time student.
I live in deep south texas where the cost of living is very cheap, but we are still strugling. With me in school and my husband working full-time we still barley get $1000 a month. Our expenses run around $650 and the rest is used for food, gas and with a growing girl, clothes. We barley have any to save.
My daughter and I don't get out much. It seems like it is now affecting her social skills.
Hello, I am a 23 year old wife, mother & student! My father recently died and since then our financial stability has gone down the drain. We moved in with my mother to help her and us save money and manager hers. With the expenses we came across were astonomical, we drained our savings and now we can't catch up.
For the past month my husband was at work nearly 24/7! We finally caught up with our bills, but now we are strugling to pay for our gas! My husband has found a co-worker who is willing to pick up him, but I still have to go pick him up after work. Me being a student, I have to leave my class early so that I can start dinner and then leave to pick him up because we both have to wake up early to be on track the whole day. It is becoming emotionally and phisically draining.
We are still living with my mother, and my 3 year old daughter will start school this fall. We don't want another emergency to happen. If we could get maybe an extra $100 for gas that way we can use our extra money to put in our savings to save up as an emergency fund. If you'd like to help us with putting money in our emergency fun that would be great as well.
We'd also like some prayers sent to my darling sister, it's been 2 years since she got married and her husband is having mental problems, she says she can't take any more and is also causing financial unstability.
