Yesterday Tags

I hate needing to do this, but I need help. I'm looking everyday for a job, while my 9 year old is in school. I take my 4 year old with me because I can't afford a sitter. We walk because I don't have gas money (it'll be repossessed soon, anyway).
I got my eviction notice yesterday. My cable, internet, and phone are all shut off. Electricity will be any day, now. I'm broke and struggling. I don't know what to do, but I'm trying. Please...if you can help.

I need immediately $ 3000 towards my hear treatment.The doctors advised me to go for immediate treatment but I could not go because of my financial position. Though I had enough money I lost in business believing friends and partners. I have helped so many but when I am in distress none is coming for my rescue. Yesterday I prayed to God I god a vision to try through Internet.
Please help

I moved from the west coast to the east, to start a new life for me, I'm a25 year old female living in a small apartment with a roommate and her dog(ifound them in thepaper) after being in the new area for a week I found a good paying job and I was on cloud 9, then I got sick and spent a few days in the hospital, without insurance ( I had been at my job long enough to have it). I had to take a loan out on my car to help with my medical bills, that wasn't enough, so I was stuck making payments on my car, the hospital, my car insurance and my rent, my job laid everyone off on a Tuesday saying that it was closing, I never got a last check, its been a few months and I stopped paying for car insurance, and haven't paid my share of the rent in two months (my roommate understands but can tell she is getting tired) and I woke up yesterday to a tow truck taking my car, if you could please help me out while I'm down I'm just ashamed of how my life has gone.

Hello. Im writing this with my pride put aside because i've let the love of my life down as far as im concerned and need help in order to pay the remaining past due rent for this month. This is not easy for me to do because of the overwhelming feeling of failure that just eats me up inside. We have been together for more than 12 yrs now and we have always managed somehow to make it through some extremely difficult times. This women is an Angel of Mercy for those who know her and to her family she is simply the rock. She is 1 of 5 sisters, all having 2 children a piece, and to which all 10 children she has taken in under our roof for extended periods through all the years i've known her. She is the most positive and giving person I have ever met! I LIVE FOR THIS WOMEN and have always reassured her that I could never at any cost, no matter how tough things got, give her reason for serious concern or not be able to get us past any finacial issues no matter how bad it looks. Yes im feeling very sorry for myself because I was a truck driver and lost my job because of an accident that was my fault and where knowone was injured, resulted in a dollar amount that was too high for my company to retain insurance in order for me to continue in thier employment. Week to week we got by and then back in December the freight slowed and my checks that the bulk of our bills and all the rent came out of, was now barely making the household bills. We fell behind Dec and Jan rent and was given such a break from an understanding landlord and we caught up in Feb with every dime of our tax refund given to a thankful landlord but one that stated, from that point on, we must be on time. After all the struggle we went through and the extreme patients and understanding of our landlord....now i've lost my job! We have spent the first half of this month calling and talking to and submitting applications to so many programs for assistance but getting turned away with no solutions. We have no more time and if forced to moved i will have let down the last person on earth that deserves it. Our rent is $675 a month and sent $300 yesterday and it was everything we had. we need $375 and nothing more. if anyone can help, you will find knowone more greatful beyond words can trully express and any additional info needed for your consideration can be provided if requested. Thanks to all that take the time to consider any possibility for help.

I put an ad here yesterday but forgot to mention that I also need money for dental work :(

I can't delete any comments I left in response to some people begs, so I'm making a general post. I am no longer offering to pay for referrals on begslist. I don't know if any of you have read my beg but I'm a serious person when it comes to getting money because I need it. My situation does not give me the luxury to pick and choose how I get it.That is the reason I offered the deal that I did. quite a few people have signed up and done nothing. I do understand hat this is begslist but how can you seriously expect people to help you if you don't help yourself. Since I have posted here I received 3 false claims of help all turned out to be scams. So I wish you all many blessings but it is void except that individual that express interest yesterday and to the woman who wanted to participate a couple days ago. the door is always open to you. The only reason I would leave my beg posted on here is because I still have a little faith left that people other than scammers are reading the begs.

I recently adopted my wife's son, using the money i would usually use for bills, under the impression i could handle the financial problem via working overtime and help from family. On the way home, our family van broke, and the 'help from family' came as fixing the van. That was two months ago, and trying to fix it on my limited income has failed (the overtime disappeared). So now, we owe on all our bills, our bank account is $800 in the hole, gas has been shut off, power has given us an extension until mid may (at which point it is all due up front, $300 just in power for two months!), our phones are shut off (which my boss found out yesterday and said get a phone of some kind in two weeks or you're fired), and lastly, the bed we purchased back at christmas will be seized. I know that sounds stupid, but it's a special bed for my back condition. I don't feel I'm some lost cause that will be on this site begging for money week after week, I just had some financial plans backfire...a one time financial plan at that. I did the math and have found that a total of $1500 will get me through this horrible ordeal and set my family and I back on financial track. I've already sold my car to pay the mortgage for two more months(leaving us to struggle on just one van), please help me not loose any more! any and all donations are greatly appreciated!

I have a job, but after our families health insurance is taken out I only bring home $78 every two weeks. I know your thinking cancel it. You can only cancel once a year or of course you lose it if you leave this job. I don't want to leave this job.
Why is it so special, I work with special needs students. It's a very intense job,ages range from 14 -22 years of age. It takes a lot of patience and tolerance for the unexpected to happen. I have what it takes to do this job. Except money. I'm a teachers assistant. I trying to go to school to get a degree. I can't handle over two classes a semester. I have medical issues too, I'm to afraid to cancel my insurance due to the fact I have to go to the doctor and have regular check ups. We do not qualify for aid.

My marriage is not in the best of health either. I need help to save my home, maybe my marriage and my job. This is not easy for me. I'm just very scared, maybe someone will understand what I'm saying, I want to keep what I have, it's not much, I want to continue working in the job I have, I know it isn't going to pay my bills, but if I can get caught up I can still be there for those special kids. Finally, if the strain of being on the verge of losing our house is gone maybe I can heal my marriage. I don't want to throw away 30 years of my life.

We found out yesterday that our heat pump has gone out and needs to be replaced. I know air conditioning is a luxury but here in Florida it is almost a necessity. Especially if you have health problems.

And if you can't do anything for me, just pray for us, God bless, hopefully

I am 44 years old, originally from California, divorced in 2005, remarried in 2006, and in over my head. I worked in the mortgage industry for many years and got out when the market crashed. I had many credit problems because of my divorce and as a result could not get licensed with the new procedures to become a loan officer again. Well, some of these creditors, have been trying to attach my checking accounts and garnish my wages for the past 3 years and so, I've had to stay off the grid employment wise.
This has been ok, just very stressful, until now. Everything is coming to a head now and I can't hide from this any longer. With my wife, my 3 yr old son, and baby on the way, I don't even have health insurance anymore. I don't know what else to do. I need some help and like yesterday. My rent has not been paid since the 4/1 and phones will be shut off any day now.
Please help us!!! I love my family and I will never be able to forgive myself if we get evicted or I get thrown in jail. We won't even have money to eat in a few days!! I start a new job on Monday and I pray that I can get help before they garnish my wages.
God bless you and I pray that you can help us!!

I need $10,000 to go to school this summer. I know charities are so yesterday, but if you can find it within your fingers to donate a few dollars to help me along I would be very grateful. If you donate just 1% of what you put towards tattoos, video games, restaurants, strip clubs, beer, cigarettes, or rubber chickens in the course of a year, I will reach my goal in no time! Please help me raise the funds I need to further my education so that I can provide for my wife and child better! Their future rests in my hands! And my future rests in yours!

Hi. Yesterday my car got repo I have two small kids and now no way to get to work or around. Please someone help me!! Its gonna be 1600.00 to get it out. Please help me in any kinda way. Please!!!

Hi everyone! My name is Sean Arcand and I am 11 years old. My very bestest friend Maya is our family Golden Retriever mix and she just came back from the vet yesterday.

My mom says Maya needs surgery and her bladder is not working right. I asked my mom if Maya will have her surgery soon but Mom told me she doesn't have the money to pay for the bills.

I cried last night. All night because I knew I wouldn't see Maya for long.

Then Maya came into my room and nuzzled my tummy. I love her so much. But I know without help I will lose her.

This morning Mom told me that if I could find a way to pay for the bills then she will take Maya to the vet for a trantsplant.

The cost is $5105.

I am asking anyone out there from the bottom of my little heart to help Maya. She is the greatest friend I could ever have. When I was sick with the chicken pox she was sleeping in my bed all night and all morning looking over me.

If you have donated anything I am thanking you with all my soul for your genarosety. Thank you thank you thank you and god bless you for helping me save my bestest friend.

Today, I'm not posting a beg for help. I really do not think I will get any. I'm going to post how I feel and how we're doing. Get things off my chest so I can move on with my day because I'm stressed out.

We were contacted by a new company. We are now set up to work and doing work for them. We had people loan us money and time to get things ready so we could work for them. It takes money to make money and so on.

My husband and son drive to this area for the job which is hours away. They were not given enough material for the job, so twice they had to buy material.( thank goodness for the loan) This put them way behind schedule and they could not complete the job yesterday. Now you come to the point of, do you spend $100.00 on gas and hours driving or try and find a cheap place to stay. Well we couldn't afford the place to stay nor the gas (profit margin thing),so they slept in the truck. I didn't sleep well worrying.

Today they get to the place to complete the job and the guard said to them "we really don't allow people to work here on Sunday". He lets them in anyway, they are hopeful that if they wait until noon, they won't get thrown out. Mind you this is construction work and this is a upscale neighborhood with I guess a policy against noise, construction work on Sundays.

I am thankful for the work, I wish it had gone smoother yesterday, yes, we will make a little money if they can complete this job today.

I am going to pray for the little things again today and be thankful for what we have. I have taken to talking to god a lot lately. I'm tired of talking about my problems to friends and family.

If you read this post say a prayer, I'm praying for all us. May God bless us all, Hopefully

Yesterday, I went for the first time to a food pantry located at a Church of God. While there, we all prayed together, mind you, I do not go to church but I do pray and talk to God. Anyway, it was touching. I received my food, careful not to take more than my family needed. I could have taken more, but I knew that with what they gave me I had enough until next week when we will get a small check from my husbands work. I thank them and God for the gift of food and went on my way. Later on in the day my husband was contacted about a job. It won't save my house, but it will help. Maybe, I have asked for to much before in prayer, I posting this because now I feel, ask for less, take less, and be true of heart and maybe you shall receive some of what you need and be thankful for that. I am

Greetings,

My name is Stephanie. Following the death of both my parents in a car accident 5 years ago August my health has been in a steady decline. I suffer from neurological issues that will soon have me in a wheelchair, and advanced COPD that means I have to have Oxygen continuously. Yesterday I had to go the doctors in 85 degree heat without any air conditioning in my van. By the time I got to the medical center and tried to find this new doctors location I ended up collapsing twice between the walking and breathing. I weigh 83 pounds at 5'5" and I can't carry the oxygen with me when I have to exit the vehicle. Ultimately I ended up in the emergency room.

I live with my daughter and grandson of 6 years. My grandson was in the car when my parents were killed and suffered a major brain injury at 13 months. I'm happy to report though that after months of hospitalization he is right as rain and is mad at me currently ;o) because I'm on my computer which he adores playing with. My daughter suffers from PTSD since the accident my parents were killed in. She cannot drive without someone in the car and she was going to go with me yesterday but the heat was so bad that we were concerned about Gavin in the back in my black 1994 Ford Astro van. It was just way too hot for him and with her PTSD we HAVE to go through town to get anywhere or she will lose it so there would not have been any steady air flow.

It's been a long 5 years. My parents and I jointly owned a duplex. Their deaths were the beginning of the most miserable time of my life. When I divorced it was jointly decided that it would better if I lived in the upstairs apartment so they could be there for the kids while I worked. Over 16 years we became so close that their deaths nearly destroyed me. I paid for the last 15 years on the note of the house, my buy in and we all lived there incredibly content and happy. My parents were my best friends.

After their deaths during the mortgage meltdown, credit locks, and the economic fallout my career of 16 years was one of the first to go. I worked in the non-profit sector designing programming for inner-city communities with a specific focus on youth. So 8 months after their deaths the funding streams I used for the programming dried up and a job I loved disappeared.

Life insurance was enough to cover their debt with a little left over because they didn't carry much but in the end I lost my home of 16 years to the insurance company that covered my daughters son through work when they filed a $ 90,000.00 lien against my home. So 7 months after losing my job I also lost a home I loved. So I experienced 3 deaths within the span of a little over a year.

Because I was unemployed so long and had to use my cards to keep the lights on so to speak my credit is not good. So I can't borrow the funds or even charge a repair for the car.

I can no longer go to doctors visits alone. I'm too weak to walk very far without help and I can't carry the oxygen canister on my own. So I need my daughter for these visits.

Like anyone with severe health issues I'm buried in bills but what I really need help on is funds that will me to fix the air conditioning in my van which despite it's age runs like a champ. I have a physicians assistant who comes into my home to work with my but getting to the specialists has become real concern.

My daughter even with her PTSD has reached a point where she doesn't want me going alone. I was supposed to call her when I reached the doctors the other day when I collapsed the 2nd time and they took me to the specialists office I asked the receptionist to call my daughter. She didn't and she left my daughter terrified that something horrible had happened to me. I don't carry a cell I can't afford one. My daughter was getting better about both driving and me driving myself; because of this receptionist my daughter has now had a huge set back. I have to see that doctor again next week and I can't take them without air conditioning so what I'm going to have to do is make sure I find someone that sit with my daughter while I'm gone to help keep her anxiety level low. I don't have any choice I have to get there. I won't have anyone to carry my oxygen but I'm hoping I can in there.

Anything you can do would be greatly appreciated. I am more than happy to pay it forward as soon as I can. I have been a lifelong contributor to various causes and I know people are in dire straights right now. We all need help in one form or another. I would never ask if I could do this myself. Please forgive me.

If you would like to know more about the accident and my Grandson and his Grandmother who after losing her home and moving into a 3rd floor apartment made a terrible mistake in her depressed state go to http://ontheirway.vanderbiltchildrens.org/?article=7511 this a feature story Vanderbilt Children's Hospital did in their print and web magazine.

Hello my name is Alex. I am 19 and I live on my own in a small one bedroom apartment. Recently I began my spring semester of college at a new school: scottsdale community college. In the past, my former schools gave me my grants and loans quickly, and easily within one or 2 payments days within eachother. BUT, my new college has a different payment plan, with my last payment being february 19th and the next being around match 28th. I recently lost my job and am currently searching for work. I owe 362.38 currently. Yesterday the manager of
my apartments gave me a notice stating I have 5 days to pay the remaining balance due. I only just turned 19, and I feel as if I am already beggining to fail in life...I turned to family with little help. I'm affraid to be on the streets. I am willing to work for money. Honestly i'd do almost anything!!! Please help!! Even a penny helps. Please I will be so thankful.

99%? What about the 49%?

I do not believe I have any dedicated followers to this blog that I started about a week ago. I have added to the end of my blogs a donate button and I feel I need to justify the decision to do so. That is what this blog is about, and it probably should have been my first post.

It seems like there are three groups of people in America.

There is the rich. They get tax breaks simply for being rich. The philosophy is that if they spend less on taxes then they will invest it into production and buying stuff and it will “trickle down.” I am all for it if it works. But it doesn’t. They have had their tax breaks for about ten years and there isn’t anything trickling down my way.

Then there is the very poor. They claim to be incapable of working 40 hours a week because of mental or physical issues. They don’t get up very early in the morning, they don’t worry about the way they look. They collect social security, food stamps, unemployment and whatever else they can get for free. I know there are some people that legitimately can not work but I think there are a great deal of people that can and choose not to.

Instead of the 99% movement lets start a 49% movement.1% is uber-wealthy. About 50% pay no taxes and/or are a drain on our society. So that leaves 49%. I am the 49 percent and that fucking sucks! We can’t get ahead and we can’t get a hand.

Let me tell you a little more about myself. I work 60+ hours as a salesperson, which is non-commission based position. There are some things we can sell and if we sell it at a certain margin we can get a “spiff.” Unfortunately I sell building materials and not a lot of people are building right now. Also the the things that you can get a spiff on are high-end items that are difficult to sell in a good economy. I still try like hell though. In the interest of getting as many hours as possible there is no job I will not do or that is too menial. I will sell, I will work out in the yard and drive a forklift, do deliveries, stack lumber, shovel snow, sweep, empty trash, stock shelves, answer the phone,work the register or anything else that will keep me from getting sent home or laid off.

I started this blog about a week ago. I was looking for another way to make money doing something I enjoyed in my “spare” time. As well as working 60 hours a week I am also a divorced dad that takes his kids every weekend. So there isn’t a whole lot of time for a second job. I looked into the Ebay thing and realized I really don’t have anything left to sell.

Also looked into doing surveys. On average you can get a dollar for each 45-60 minute survey you take. I still do this occasionally. If I have time and can find a few that I feel are worth my time. Any little amount helps.

I thought I might eventually be able to monetize this blog by putting up enough content to get advertisers interested. It will probably take several months and a lot of writing before this might be possible. Until then I will keep the donate button on here.

My point here is that I started looking for a way to get my head back above water a week ago and things have gotten far worse since then. I went to the grocery store yesterday and in my estimation prices have gone up close to 25% on most of the things I buy. In a week!

And the price of gas....

My job is about a 25 minute commute from where I live. There is no public transportation where I live and I do not think a 25 minute commute is unreasonable. But even with a car that gets 28 miles to the gallon and gas prices being what they are it is a huge strain on the wallet. They are talking about the price of gas going up twenty cents over one weekend! I topped off yesterday in the hopes of saving two bucks.


I don’t have the answers but it seems like this system of government and politics doesn’t work. We elect a Republican for 4-8 years and when they fail to fix everything we elect a Democrat. They don’t make our problems go away either and in another 4-8 years we try another Republican and so on. Its like having two cartons of milk in the refrigerator. You take a sip of one carton and its sour, you take a sip from the other carton and it is sour too. So you try the first carton again. What? It’s still sour? Weird. Maybe we should try the second carton again....

Come on people! Can’t we get together? We need to throw out the rotten fucking milk, get off our dead asses and get down to the store and buy some fresh fucking milk!

I was already falling behind. Then it only took one small medical emergency and one car repair to put me even further in the hole. Between money I had to put up for office visits, medical procedures that had to be done, car repairs, and lost time at work it cost me over a thousand dollars that I did not have to spend. Now I am possibly facing eviction.

And I know there are people out there that need the money far more than I do. I don’t have cancer, my kids do not need a life-saving medical procedure and I am not living on the streets yet. All I am asking is that if you understand where I am coming from and you like what I have to say help me out and donate a couple of bucks. I am not asking you to “give until it hurts,” and if you don’t have it to give then I don’t want it.

If you can’t help me out by donating money, then help me out by sounding off in the comments and telling me how I can make this blog better or what I should do different. I openly welcome harsh criticism and all opposing viewpoints.

I am not looking for millions of dollars, thousands of dollars or even hundreds of dollars. I would be very happy with tens of dollars. Ten bucks accumulated over a week from several people would be a huge shot in the arm right now. If I made an extra ten bucks from donations it would buy me enough gas to get back and forth to work for two days. Or it would cover the rising cost of my grocery bill. Right now that would be huge.

Give what you can. Every penny counts. Or offer your suggestions or both. Donate some obscure amount and put that same amount in the comments or send me an email telling me the obscure amount you donated and I will reply personally to those comments and emails. I will probably respond whether you donate or not.

I thank you for any support you can

My mom got a notice yesterday on her door saying they will auction her house on March 8 if she cant come up with $4000. She has been turned down for all loan modifications up to this point and along with being unemployed she is a couple years shy of SS and out of luck. Every penny has been invested into this home and she has nowhere else to go.
