It was 1994 & I met & fell in love with my soul-mate. Unfortunately, I was a young dumb 22yr old who wouldn't keep a job. She dumped me. Fast forward 17yrs & thanks to facebook we are back together. All my dreams have come true. But things are not as great for her. She lost her house of 11yrs during a load modification & had to file bankrupcy. She refuses to rent because she as 3 Great Danes that she loves to much. They are wonderful dogs. She now has bad credit & I have NO credit. But We do have $10,000 saved for a house, but every time we go on williamsauction.com we are always out bidded by $2000-$8000. I can't let her down again (or her dogs). We love each other to much. Please help us & the dogs buy a house. Thank you!!!

I'm on disability due to mental illness and while it pays, it's never enough. I've made some dumb decisions through need and sometimes a need for retail therapy and now sit $2,000 in debt.

With the amount I receive and the cost of living it could take years to pay this off, if ever.

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks.

Hi everyone who reads this!

Where to begin?
life was ok, not amazing but just ok, then we decided to get in over our heads, we lived in a flat with no garden and had 2 kids, so we bought our own home, money became tighter than tight.
Worst thing is when my man lost his job through redundancy!, arrears soon mounted up on everything not just the mortgage!, all other bills grew too!
Sadly it took its toll on us, by this time we had 2 new kids so we totalled a family of 6 at this point and we got very little help.
During this tough time things have fell apart, we have been through some stuff I wont even bring up and almost lost our house over 3 times.
Its almost impossible to get help financially.
My partner managed to find another job, but it was only a temporary position and the debts cant get paid off, feels like it would take an eternity.
Every time the kids ask for something, its the same answer "sorry, cant afford it".
I have suffered from problems with depression for years and my partner finds that as he gets older, manual work takes its toll, he suffered complete paralasis down his left side as a child, nobody here cares, we dont try and claim benefits, we just take what they give us each week and its not a lot, it wont be long before we get threats of eviction proceedings no doubt.
I want to point out that my partner has always worked and I have always been a stay at home mum, we never claimed benefits until he lost his job, we are no scroungers, we want to earn our own money and it was really a downgrading experience for my man to get treated like "just another waste of space" at the local job center!
This whole cyber begging thing, I stumbled upon it quite literally, at first I laughed, thought its seemed silly and funny but then I thought that perhaps it wasn't so dumb, what if someone out there cared enough to help total strangers?

well I dont know what to say other than any offer is welcome?

thanks :)

I don't like asking for help and feel really dumb for doing this but I have 3 kids and me and my newly married wife are falling behind on bills so we can't get gifts or barely any food for my kids we need help we both work but struggling so if any one can help my whole family would be very grateful. God bless all those that do help others. I don't know if this will really work but my family is getting in a deep hole and trying to climb out but need a little help so if this is real please help anyway possible we need beds money and food and whatever u can give my number is 325-200-3349 or email is johnrobertlittle79@yahoo.com

I would like to start out by saying, "this was/is my last resort". I never
looked down on others that ask for help because most of the time I was the
helper. However, now I am sitting behind this smoke screen in desperation. I
am a single mother of an 8 year old growing boy and currently working two
jobs to make ends meet. A few years ago I made a purchase on a vehicle that
was a big bad mistake and definetly a life lesson after reading Dave
Ramsey's book. My payment, fuel and insurance is 33% of my monthly income. I
am upside down in my payments along with trying to keep up with student

loans and other monthly expenses. I would be the first to admit I made a
dumb choice and I am trying to dig myself out of this deep financial hole. I
am not one to take without giving something in return. I will defenitely pay
it forward in some way to others by doing a good deed for someone else. It
saddens me to have to come to this but this is my cry out for help. Thank
you so much for taking time to read my message. Soldier iN Need of a little
help!

Hi, my name is Susana... and, I'll be very greatful for any help at all.

Although I grew up in a lower middle class family (disfunctional, and often abusive), I now live in abject poverty. I've made some mistakes. Who hasn't? Society can be quite unforgiving to those who've done a series of dumb things in the past!

Without going into a very long story here, I'll try to explain our situation. I'm an educated, intellegent, kind, and creative person. I'm not on drugs or alchohol, nor am I in any way a self-saboteur. My basic needs are pretty simple - a half way decent place to live and the knowlegde that I'm making progress in my life.

My most important goal is to help my family. I'd like also, to in some way contribute toward making the world a better place for everyone.

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for one day. Teach a man to fish and he can feed himself for a lifetime." (Unknown Author)

If you'd like to help me help myself and my family, your contribution won't just be a drop into a bottomless bucket! I'm working diligently to reunite my family, clean up my credit, get a real place to live, go back to school, get off of government benefits and get a job, eventually start my own business, and give back to others.

Those aren't unreasonable goals, yet due to a lack of basic resources, reaching any of them has been extremely difficult. We're hanging in there. Currently, we're trying to raise enough money to relocate and get out of homelessness.

Please help us if you can. Thank you; and may God bless you and yours always.

im not very good at asking people for money and i really don't like it but im down to just about nothing and drowning in debt so all i ask is for people who willing to send me $1 that would help out a lot. im new to this whole thing so i don't know if people are going to read this but if you do and are willing to help me $1 can go along way for someone who has nothing. i made some dumb mistakes in my life and now im asking for a little bit of help to get back on my feet. thank you

First off let me thank you for visiting this web site. Just getting you here is a big accomplishment to me. Okay now you are here if you would take about 5 minutes to read my story and pass along the word that would be a blessing in itself. My name is Tony and I am a 41 year old man. I have a girlfriend/wife that is about the same age. We have a 16 year old son and a 2 year old grandson that we raise. My wife has had several back surgeries and is in the processes of applying for disability. I am currently unemployed and we are a few months behind on bills. Also our car broke down about 2 months ago. We live in Middletown, Ohio. This is our present day situation. Now let me tell you how we got here. My wife/girlfriend met about 9 years ago. Neither of us led a very virtuous lifestyle actually we were both very much into the drug scene and that is how we met. Neither of us had a job and we supported our lifestyle and drug habits by hustling and shoplifting. I am a convicted felon and no stranger to that side of life.I was actually in alot of trouble growing up, never for anything that involved any violence but wrong is wrong no matter how you look at it. Anyway back to my story. Everything we had and all of our energy went to supporting our lifestyle and our habits. Her son was about 7 or 8 at this time and we were homeless and you can’t sleep in a car and hustle everyday and take care of a kid, so what did we do? What would any drug addict do? Give up the kid. Man that is sick. So we sent him to stay with my sister and further immersed ourselves into that life. We lived like this for a couple of years and then I got popped for shoplifting for the umpteenth time and finally had to do a little time.Now during this time I didn't have a religious experience or any type of awakening I just was tired of living this way and subjecting my friends and family to all my bull. So when I got out we sat down and talked and decided to change. We did not go to rehab or any type of program, we just stopped and started living a real life.It was no easy way to go either. we started small, getting jobs,a hotel room and a junker car.She got what she could with her back and I worked a couple of fast food jobs. we worked our way up to an apartment and then a house and eventually better jobs. We also got our boy back and started being responsible people. Now I consider us a success story. Then a couple of years ago her 24 year old daughter had a baby and got into drugs. Isn't it funny how our past always comes back to haunt us? So we took the baby in and counseled her as much as possible but I honestly think most people have to learn about life for themselves.Now her daughter is in jail and we are raising our grand-baby. Actually things have gone quite well for quite a few years, but as with everything in life we have hit a snag.Her back finally gave out and she cannot work and is applying for disability and the company I was working for sold out and with the economy the way it is there are just not that many jobs around and with no car there is absolutely nothing within walking distance. So now I come to my last part of why I asked you here. We have applied for welfare, food stamps,H.E.A.P.,food pantry, and any program I can find to help us! Something else I failed to mention is my wife is a German immigrant and her green card is expired. That cost 600.00 to renew. I desperately need a car which is about 1000.00. I am a few months behind on bills. I do not want to go back to the way I used to be. Now I am not used to asking for charity, or any type of hand out. In the past when I was in need, or I wanted something, I stole or took whatever it was. My girlfriend and I have come a long way physically,mentally,emotionally, and spiritually. I have grown alot and I do not want to go back down that path that I followed in my younger years. I know now that life is full of choices and it is a choice that each of us must choose to do the right thing or the wrong thing, but I also know that sometimes you have to do whatever it takes to survive. I am writing to you because I do not want to become a statistic. We have learned a lot and we want our family to be a success story.I would appreciate any and all help that you could provide me and my family. We have worked very hard to get were we are today and we are not lazy and we would work for anything that you could do for us, but please keep us in mind, in your hearts and prayers.I have put a button on here to contribute money and I do not expect people to take care of me but if I could get a thousand people to donate a dollar then I could get a car and then a job and hopefully back on my feet.If you can’t donate then maybe you can give me advice or tell me to whom I can turn to. I am starting to get desperate and I just want a break out of life and was hoping that someone out there knew of something I can do. If not then pass along the word maybe eventually someone will come to this website that can point me in the right direction. As I said before I am not lazy. I also am not dumb. I am willing to work for anything I receive. I just need a little help and maybe a few open doors, so like I said do what you can and spread the word and pray because I do believe that prayer helps. If you have any questions or wanna know anything then put it on the blog or e-mail me and I let you know to the best of my ability and again thanks for visiting this site and anything you can do.


Sincerely,
Tony

Hiii. I'm Ryan. A second year law student that decided to work in public sectors over the summer for free instead of selling his soul to a corporate defense law firm. Admittedly, a dumb financial decision that I don't regret one bit.

What's Ryan need money for? Moving, credit cards he's already maxed over the summer, food, rent, and gas. The normal expenses of life to last me until late August, at which point I can resume living on loan money. My federal loans were maxed during the normal terms, so my options are to either get a paying job or find some other way to come up with the money.

Enter You, Stage Right.

I don't know if anyone even looks at these...

I'm 27 years old and I have been struggling with debt for most of my life. I was one of those dumb kids that decided to get a credit card when I was 18 thinking that one day I will just pay it back. Well... I'm sure most people are aware of how this story goes.

I don't have any kind of sad story as to why or how I am in this position other than just stupidity and naivety. I didn't finish college although someday soon I hope to go back but I've just been trying to get all my finances sorted out so I can feel like I can accomplish something. Debt is probably the second thing I worry about next to death. I would like to not be able to worry about money anymore and what bills I need to pay and if I will have enough.

One thing I do know is that if I ever get out of my current situation I do want to do some type of humanitarian work. I have so many things I would like to do and helping those who are need is at the top of my list. If I could take care of myself first then I would be able to help others.

So like I said before, I'm not disabled or have any sort of ailment, no children to take care of.... Just a single girl that is trying to get back on the right track and live the life that I was supposed to live.

Actually i am a teacher, i have two daughters, a wife and an old car, living in employee's quarters, i lost all my money and fell into deep debts with huge loans because of helping my brother's internet cafe business which finally ended up with heavy debts, the money supposed to be buying our house all gone. Now i can't afford to buy a house and have to pay a lot of bills. You may say i am a dumb silly idiot, losing own self to help others, but that exactly happened to me and my family.
I have tried everything to get money but really it's beyond my ability to solve the problem. I can't find any good method to get a house for my family. Finally i came to these cyberbeg and begging for money, i just want USD $60000.00 to set up a little apartment for my family, i hope someone can help me for this, if you need proof all about what i have mentioned i would send you a copy of all those document of simply send you all contact numbers of bank or department to investigate about myself.
Please help me, i just need a little apartment for my family. Thank you very much.

Bottom line I had a credit card bill going to separate address going to get busted by wife soon. Help me avoid disaster. I know dumb right. Anything would help

No, really...that's my name...at 25 years old it seems like it has always been a embarrassment. For some reason I never think about it until it is the first day of class and the professor is about to call roll. And I sit there just waiting for the moment when the professor gets to my name. Crinkles his or her brow, and says "Cary Grant??!" And I raise my hand or whatever and entire class looks at my ugh.
Sorry i guess I will get to the point. I have no job. Had to quit college for the 3rd time in my life due to money reasons. Kind of hard to get to class when you run out of gas 10 miles from school. It finally got to the point where I just withdrew...whats the point. As the bills pile up and the collection calls for car payments and the car insurance starts to lapse. And I spend time sleeping in the car and with family if/when they will take me. Its all just become too much.
At first I was sad, depressed, angry, even suicidal at times, but I didn't have the courage to do it. Now I just feel nothing, I want help, I need help. But life has just kicked me in the nads so many times they are just numb. I guess its my mind's way of protecting it from itself. Nothing has worked so far, nobody will give me a loan due to dumb mistakes like skipping out on utility bills and petty 500 dollar limit credit cards when I first turned 18. So, this is the last ditch effort, maybe it will work, maybe it wont. I want to have hope but experience has taught me that hope can be a cruel mistress. But at least I can say I tried, and that's all I can do until it is not possible to try anymore.

Thank You if you read this, help if you can, but most of all if you read this, thanks for reading that because it helps me for people to listen and remember me.

Hey everybody, my name is Justin. To start things off, I'll be honest and direct. I made the really dumb mistake of playing some backyard football without any mouth protection about 5 months ago.

So, needless to say, I chipped both of my front teeth really bad as I was making an attempt to tackle my brother. They are bad enough chips that I was advised I should get two crowns to fix my dental situation.

With all of that being said, I have no income at the moment. I was laid off from my previous job last week, and am now waiting to hear back from the Unemployment Office to see if I qualify for unemployment benefits.

I've honestly been hiding my smile for the past 5 months, I won't let anyone see it because it looks that bad. Whenever I'm hanging out with friends and family, I hide it. I don't even laugh in front of anyone else in fear that they will see my smile.

With the cost of both crowns, and all of the dental procedures that come along with it, I figure I'm going to need about $2,000 to cover it all.

So please, if there is anyone out there who is willing to donate, I would greatly appreciate it. Please help me to bring my smile back! Thanks for your time.

I really do not know if other pleas are real or whether this website works but my plea is genuine. I really hope someone can step forward and give a bit to help me and my family.

I am a thai living in Petchabun and my family of six live in a house which has already tilted sidesway. It is in danger of crumpling in which we sleep in it every night. We have no choice because my aged parents cannot work anymore and two of my siblings are deaf and dumb. Even though I have completed my studies through a grant and achieve a degree, work here in Thailand pays very low and my wage is only enough to feed my whole family and myself. I do not wish for extra money to make our lives better, I do not wish to receive money to buy anything at all. Even as we are always hungry, this kind of hardship we can bear with it. This is real I only want enough money to build up my house so that my family and I can sleep safely inside.

Please kindly help. Any amount will help. For people really genuine to help me and my family, I will do whatever you want to show you evidence that your money only goes towards building the house.

Please give us some hope. I am willing to say Heaven will punish me with death if this is a lie. Please give a dollar or two, with many good souls, we have a hope.

I really do not know if other pleas are real or whether this website works but my plea is genuine. I really hope someone can step forward and give a bit to help me and my family.

I'm working this weekend so that'll get me fed but I am facing eviction and would have nowhere to go (and maybe this sounds dumb but I don't want to lose my cat and I've been in this apartment over a year- it's home). Please anyone help at all. I hate begging, I really do, but this is the desperate measure in a desperate time I'm willing to take.
Thank you and God Bless

I used to have my own studio that I shared with a roommate for 6 years until he committed suicide there back in 2006. The landlord asked me to move out in 2008 saying he was going to move his father into my unit, which ended up not being true. I didn't want to live there anymore anyway because of the tragedy that took place there. I rented a beautiful room in an apartment by the park, but the master tenant was a nightmare who ended up giving me 60 notice to move out only because I refused to side with her in harassing our neighbors. Now I'm renting another room in a house for much more money and in a less nicer part of town, but it would be nice to have my own little place again where I can cook meals and invite friends over for dinner & coffee. I can't do that where I live now. I stay shut up in my tiny room, just coming out to leave for work or to use the bathroom. I applied for a low income building that had tiny studios that rent from $730 to $850 a month. I got accepted except that I need $800 plus first month's rent to move in. I don't have that kind of money put away. My car's engine blew up in March and I have not been able to afford another. I have bill collectors chasing me every day for several years now. I used to have a good paying job, but I lost that and now work making half as much, but I love my job and the people I work with. All I want is to be able to come home to my own little space without someone getting into my business or telling me how dumb or strange I am. I really would like to move out by year's end. Thank you for your time and generosity.

Have run out of options trying to make ends meet. Husband lost a good job in October of 2008. He did get another job in February of 2009, but it was a loss of $1,000.00 in income per month compared to his last job. We figured a steady check was better than no check and that he could keep looking. I do have a full time job and have worked for the same company for 14+ years. He did find a better paying job that would bring us back up, but it took a year to find it. So we had a loss of $12,000.00 in income for the year of 2009, but we gained a grandchild into our household. That did not work well financially, but with corner cutting and my husband going back over the road for his job we were getting to a light at the end of the tunnel. Then the truck my husband drives went down and the company gave him a rental truck to use - but only for one week. So he lost a weeks work - then he worked a week for someone else, three weeks later and he still has not gotten paid for that job. So we are behind 2-3 weeks worth of pay and falling deeper. I need the money 1) to pay back $5,000.00 to my sister that she lent us to help with the mortgage when we fell behind. 2) to pay off $600.00 sears credit card and close the account. 3) to buy tires for our car as the current ones are bald. 4) To make some minor home repairs before they are not minor anymore - (There's a leak somewhere in the kitchen ceiling) 4) to get a savings account going again so that we can move forward from the last couple of rough years. We are in the process of working with a law firm and the mortgage company to get a modification on our loan as we were dumb enough to trust our lender and refinanced a couple years ago - Now our interest rate is at 8.6% and we feel behind when our income went down. It just seems like every time we let a sigh of relief out another shoe drops.

My husband and I have been married for 17+ years we have a 16 year old son and a twenty year old daughter. Our Daughter has a 1 year old baby and they live with us at this time. Our Daughter is in college and we encouraged her to stay in and finish. The Baby's Father is in the picture just not a part of this family anymore. He wasn't ready to be a dad. Nice time to figure it out!

With being behind on our mortgage - and the sears credit card our credit is poor and we can not obtain a loan through a bank and a refinance or mortgage work out is taking too long. I can totally understand people who just want to walk away from it all sometimes.

I would love to be able to relieve some stress for my poor husband. Having to go back over the road (Truck Driver) after being home most nights and all weekends was a huge impact on our household. Never mind he constantly checks up on me as I have fibromyalgia and type 2 Diabetes. So he worry's about money, my health and everything else a Dad and Husband worry about on top of it. We also lost our health insurance in April - the week after I found out about the Diabetes. I have not been able to go back for a check up or to have my blood and urine checked as I cannot afford to pay for the visit and tests out of pocket so I monitor myself the best I can.

Like I said - Would do a Loan. I am not looking for a free handout, just a loan. Small interest mind you, but a loan.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
