Please help me clear debt that is drowning me
Posted by George180262 on 2012-02-06 11:58:11
I have, for the last 15 years, struggled to make ends meet, following periods of ill-health, bad luck and catastrophic decision making. My circumstances are now very desperate indeed, and have even considered suicide.
In 1997 I suffered from a period of depression, that became so severe that I was forced to give up my job, and borrowed money to cover my mortgage and keep my house. Unfortunately the repayments on this ever increasing debt snowballed, and I found myself unable to meet my mortgage and household bills. I had ploughed my life savings into the home, and lost it all.
In 2006 I was approached by a friend, who was concerned for my financial circumstances, and suggested that we buy an old property, renovate it and sell it for a profit. I was desperate to make some money, and trusted my friend. I would refer you to full details of this in my Beg, as the project ended in complete failure having been ripped off by an unscrupulous builder. Work that should have taken 3 months took in excess of 9, and I ended up carrying out all the work myself. I regularly worked at the house from the early hours until well past midnight. The long hours left me exhausted, and in October 2008 I had a breakdown. I simply couldnât carry on, and collapsed at work. My employer at the time was an unforgiving and vindictive man, and he said that I would be suspended if my work didnât improve. I was afraid that I would lose my job, and under considerable psychological pressure from my employer I was forced to resign.
Following the failed business venture, which had plunged me into further debt, my breakdown and subsequent loss of my job, I simply couldnât cope and pushed me into a long period of depression that became so severe that I planned to take my life. At the time I was so ill that I was unable to hold down a job, and this simply added to my woes - whilst out of work and undergoing intensive counselling I borrowed further. By the end of 2009 I was £15,000 ($23,250) in debt. I desperately want to rebuild my life now, but it is difficult to do so when I am saddled with a debt that is crippling me. Between 2009 and December 2010 my debt increased - there is no answer to it, and I will never ever me able to clear the £18,000 ($27,900) that I now owe. It is a debt that cripples me and prevents me from having a normal, happy life. I am 50 in February 2012, but have no future. I am tired of being worried, stressed, unable to sleep, and being depressed. Please, please help me start my life all over again. Please read my full story, and contact me if you have any questions. Thank you.
Military Family needs help
Posted by Militaryfamily on 2012-01-10 22:58:06
3 years pass and I was remarried. Due to the unfortunate loss of my father we came into an inheritance, we were able to balance out our debt and for once we felt some relief. Still with only 8 days a month we yet again went back to court to try and obtain more access in the summer. As with all messy divorces my ex was unwilling to budge and wanted no more than 2 non-consecutive weeks in the summer for access. Luckily for us we were granted a full month each year.
With that good news came notice to us that we were to be posted to the same city my children lived. Once we were posted to the same city the military deemed that I was to deploy to Afghanistan, with this came a lot of training and travel to complete this all while my wife was pregnant with our son. As I know being in the military not everything will go as planed, I missed the birth of my son. Once my rotation was complete we were able to make new attempts to have more access to my children (in the original agreement between my ex-wife and myself we agreed to a set amount for child support).
Once my ex-wife found out about us wanting to have the children 50/50 she asked for an increase in child support and put my two boys into hockey to try and burden us financially. Needless to say hockey is very expensive and with the increase in child support (equivalent to another mortgage) we started to sink into debt again. My wife was unable to work due to child care costs of over $780/month, legal bills thru the roof and a vindictive ex-wife making all attempts to keep me from my children.
As if that wasnât enough, my lawyer was suspended from practice, my wifeâs and my 19 month old has now been diagnosed as possibly having celiac disease.
To sum it up, we are left with $200 per paycheque to buy groceries, gas for the car and anything else that may come up which in turn we needed to rely on our credit cards. Trying to get my children 50/50 is at a stand still now because no lawyer will take us on unless we have $2000 as a retainer, we donât qualify for legal aid due to the fact that on paper I make too much.
So this is why I have turned to asking for help, to regain financial stability, gain access to my children and try and provide for my 3 boys and remove the stress from my wife. Any help would be greatly appreciated. We thank you for taking the time to read this.

Family seeking new start in life needs some help
Posted by royhorner on 2011-10-04 11:58:59
To forestall the spectre of foreclosure, we did a short sale on our PA house, and are now renting in Louisville.
Since arriving here in July, I have been unemployed (with the exception of an 11-day temporary job). We have fallen behind in our rent and bills to the amount of $3,000 to $5,000, and we need something within that amount to regain our footing. I start a new FT job today, Oct. 4, that offers +40 hours a week with opportunities for OT and, I hope, advancement. My wife and kids are also passionately seeking employment (one of my sons recently started a new job).
All was going well until 2005 when I lost the career/professional position I had that included a decent salary and healthcare for my entire family. In the past six years I have been underemployed with damaging stints of underemployment. Two times I've been laid off. I've washed dishes in a restaurant, mopped floors in a nursing home and worked for a mammoth retailer, all in an effort to provide for my family and seek open windows of opportunity. In one job I even worked five consecutive 15-hour shifts. I have more than 120 resumes pending for various government and private sector jobs.
I'm a veteran of the U.S. Navy, a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the father of three Boy Scouts, including one who is an Eagle Scout.
I could also provide references.
Any aid in any amount would be beneficial and greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your consideration. God bless you.

for her to walk and just yesterday she collapsed completely unable to use her back legs.
She requires surgery to regain the use of her legs
but obviously it is very expensive. I live from check to check and have no extra for this kind of emergency.
I have had her since she was a kitten and cant bare the thought of having to put her to sleep when there is a solution just out of reach.
Please help me.

Helping Angels Needed
Posted by believeinangels on 2011-07-11 00:58:17
Since that day it has been one battle after another, but we never give up. I had to learn to walk and write again and I am still waiting for disability. We have gone through every dime I had trying to pay the utilities and the second mortgage on my father's house. The house has holes in the floor in the kitchen, bathroom and my daughter's room and electric to only one half, but we never complain because we are thankful to have somewhere to call home. I am writing this because I have $49 to my name and bills to pay so we have a home and utilities. I have tried to sell everything we do not need, but that has not gone as well as I hoped. I have tried to find ways to work from home and that has not worked out as of yet. I have worked since I was 15 and I have never been unable to do so. I can not stand not being able to provide for my child. I am hoping that the same guardian angels that guided me to safety that April day will touch your hearts and allow you to help me keep my daughter from loosing the only thing we have left. When I get back on my feet I plan to help as many people on this site and in my community as I possibly can, because I know the stress and heartache that comes with times like this. I also know that more people than one may think are only a paycheck or two from loosing everything. Please help us and do me a favor, what ever amount you find in your heart you are able to give to us, take half of it and find someone else on this site that touches your heart and give that half to them as well. I thank you for any help you can offer and know that God will bless you here on Earth and in Eternity.
Paying it Forward
Posted by EconVictim on 2011-07-03 13:58:23
I live at home with two elderly parents: my father is retired and legally blind thanks to macular degeneration, my mother an immigrant with no driver's license with a list of medical conditions a mile long. We enjoy a crumbling house which desperately needs repairs to the roof and driveway thanks to harsh rains and a heavy winter.
I'm doing all I can to keep things afloat and maintain the household, which is hard with the limited amount of time on my hands, not to mention the occasional flair ups of my Crohn's disease. Oh yeah, I don't have medial insurance and cannot afford the ridiculously priced medication. Thank you to the Doctor who helped diagnosed my condition at a VERY discounted price.
I know I can make it through this and somehow regain the semblance of a normal, healthy life. All I'm asking for is whatever relief I can get to help chip away at my expenses and keep things moving forward. The immediate plan is to repair the house and finish paying off my student loans and my parents' high credit card debt while trying to start a career.
If- no WHEN I make it to the end of the tunnel, I will absolutely pay it forward to someone else in a similiar situation. I do have a history of volunteer work when things weren't as bad, and I still sometimes give time to a local soup kitchen. ANY help is appreciated. Thanks for your time!
Is there a way to have a some what stress free Holiday?
Posted by findm on 2010-12-20 10:58:58
I'm asking for some help so that I'm able to gain some of my pride back. It's a humbling experience to have to beg. Over the years I've always helped out when I could. I'm hoping that I will be able to receive some help now.
I don't want to bore anyone with a long song and story but if your willing to listen I will spout out my situation. I'm really hoping that I'm able to regain my footing in life, with a bit of help I know that I will be able to.

Brother would like toy for Christmas
Posted by simplysunshine on 2010-11-29 20:58:58
Mom faces another surgery in December, and may need to have another to fully regain her ability to walk. Therefore, a lot of our money is going toward hospital bills. I appreciate any donation you can give to help me be able to get him the toy he has been wanting. I know your gift will lift his spirits as well as mine and our mothers.
Thanks!

Hello,
My name is Christina and I am a 25 year old United States Air Force veteran who is desperately in need of financial assistance for bill pay. I am currently attending college Monday through Friday to become a Radiologist, therefore I can only work part-time to allow myself ample time to study as well. I have maintained a 3.7 GPA for the past two semesters, which has landed me on the school's President's List for Academic Excellence. However, with recent struggles, the stress has taken a huge toll on my mind and is reflecting upon my grades.
I have been trying to regain my composure and get back on my feet for a few months now. With my recent termination from my previous employer on account of turmoil between myself and my ex relationship (a manager), I have not seemed to find suitable employment. I went from making $9.42 and averaging 33-40 hours per week to a disappointing and meager $7.25 with 4-15 hours per week.
I have been blessed enough to be able to attend college tuition-free with my military background, so that alleviates some of the worry. There are still bills to pay and I cannot ever seem to make enough money through minimum wage in order to cover the cost. My mom has been fortunate enough to cover the loan on the car I first owned (which needed to be replaced due to transmission issues and being a gas guzzler), which is a monthly payment of $133. She has also been carrying the cost of my replacement car statement, which is a monthly payment of $252.96 as well as the rate for 6 months worth of car insurance which totals to around $600 for my car alone, on top of the bills SHE has. Recently, she has also taken on assisting my younger brother with his educational needs, on top of paying for my younger sister's education as well. So, she can no longer afford to assist all 3 of us because it is causing her to stress and struggle as well. Though she tries, gives 200%, and she is the hardest working woman out there in my eyes.
Last month, I was able to accumulate enough hours to finally pay the latter of the two. But with reduction in hours with my current company, I have only been scheduled a grand total of 11 hours for the past two weeks. I have unfortunately only been able to pay $126.48 of the now past due (10/02) $252.96 car payment. I feel as if I'm working to put gas in my car just to drive to a workplace 13 miles away from home and not even make close to enough of what I need in order to pay bills. It also doesn't help that my mom informed me she was going to be over budget this month with all the added expenses for my siblings.
Please, please help me. All I need is $126.48 to make this month's car payment while I continue to attend classes and seek new employment on my days off. I have been so desperate as to resort to selling my entertainment items on Craigslist, selling my clothing to thrift shops for gas money, and skipping a class or two to donate plasma for $20. I am mentally exhausted...my next pay day is on 10/8 but that will only have 4 hours on it. I truly believe in the generosity and kindness of strangers. There are good people out there who are willing to help out those in need and ease their worries.
Thank you SO much for reading. You have no idea how much this means to me.
Sincerely,
-Christina G.

Yes I can manage the bills when they are not over due by myself. My husband was a contractor so there were many times I had to go it alone so to speak. But with all the other issues its impossible to dig my way out by myself. I have some health issues of my own and I am worried what will happen to my family if I keep up this pace. As well as what will happen to my family if I don't.
Our real needs are 1)please pray for my family we have had enough bad luck this year we simply can not take any more. 2) get our bills current. 3) repair or replace our car. 4) assistance with our overwhelming medical bills. anything you send will be greatly appreciated. With your help we can go on and have future filled with hope and promise. Because even the smallest gift can make a big difference. Thank you for your kindness. May God bless you and your family...

But with all the other issues its impossible to dig my way out by myself.
