[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, it sucks. 
However, the bigger issue is: you don't have enough in savings to last you 5 weeks?! Let this be an expensive lesson to you. Save your money. Live within your means. You should have enough savings where you could survive for at least 6 months if necessary. [/quote]

This is OP.

HAAAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA

What a great response. So helpful. I don't live in the DC area (or the US for that matter), but rather in an area where nannies are not particularly well paid but the COL is high. I have been barely scraping by, making just a hair over minimum wage, for the last 18 months. I have also been making payments on my student loans. I have also been trying to do things like eat and buy new clothes when my old ones disintegrate.

You are either one of those mythical $35/hour nannies, or a MB very disconnected from the reality of living on a low income. I'm 21, halfway done a university degree, and completely financially independent from my family. Give me 100 other people in that situation and I can guarantee you none of them have 6 months worth of money stashed away somewhere.

HAHAH

Thank you everyone else who chimed in. I am sending out resumes like mad to all sorts of jobs and hopefully something will stick. I'm happy to work a crappy job for 5 weeks if it means I can pay my bills. [/quote]
