[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. was making 70K and barely getting by. 2. resigned right before the shutdown. 3. offer for new employment rescinded due to shutdown. 4. denied for unemployment. 5. no savings due to kids hospitalizations last year. 6. i dig through dumpsters and trash bins in wealthier neighborhoods for metal and electronics to recycle just to pay school fees, buy food, gas in car, and not dig into last of savings (less than 1,000) 7. im highly depressed and think about killing myself at least once per day. [/quote] Hang in there PP. Your kids need you. Sign up for every available assistance program. Also check out Freecycle, you may be able to get things you need at no cost.[/quote] I disagree with this advice. Here is my version: Hang in there PP. Your kids need you. Keep applying for work and once you find something, work hard to keep it and advance. Why are Americans obsessed with having the government or other people help them? What happened to hard work and self-reliance?[/quote] Because Govt taxes them (middle class). If the govt took over a third of my salary for years at that income, I'd want help too.[/quote]
