they've found panhandlers in grand central station in NYC
who make something on the order of $60,000-$70,000 a
year...people on their way to work can't be bothered and
would rather empty their pockets of change...

Thanks :)

It's what I did a while back. Spastics at my work/the inland
revenue absolutely raped me (I got a monthly pay check with
under half the normal amount on) the same month 1/4 years
rent was due! I calmly explained the situation to them, even
offered to come in and show them payslips/letter from my
company if they wanted and they said that wasn't neccessary,
they gave me a temporary increase to my overdraft for the
5/6 days neccessary (rent was due one week before payday)

When I worked out what I'd been charged for the pleasure
(with a view to getting it back via small claims court from
my company if it was a sum worth bothering about), it came
to something like £2.00 I shudder to think what I would
have paid had I gone to a loans company and requested a
similar amount (they don't like them being really
short term- and sting you for trying to pay back debts early
to avoid interest).

drummond is one hell of a bitter bastard. I think his mum
fed him on vinegar and stinging nettles as a child. He also
had two pet dogs named "Always be mean" and "No one likes
you".

situation but I do wish you the best of luck. Good night

Drummond, you are a complete asshole. I was merely asking
for advice. I know i fucked up, i dont need people telling
me one way or the other that i did.

This is one of those life lessons that taught me something.
Fuck, no ones perfect. You should know this. I realize an
error on my part was made. I was simpily asking for pointers
for making quick cash. I am not talking lottery here i was
being realistic.

I had a good talk today with some friends and although the
situation appears bleak, there are a couple of options. They
understood where i was coming from.

It's fucking called helping a brother when he's down. I am
down at the moment. My pals are offering support and ideas.
That is all i wanted this thread to be.... i-d-e-a-s. Not
some pity party. That doesnt pay bills. As for me having an
internet connection..... way to fucking make a halfassed
assumption.

You think i pay for this? No. I dont pay rent because i
cant. I am unemployed as of last week but i am waiting on an
apprenticeship/preapprenticeship for HVAC which is what i
went to school for.

And lastly just because you can fucking handle your account
and are oh so fucking wise with your money doesnt mean we
all had your experiences and have learned what you learned.

I am 100% completely sorry that i had no one teach me that
shit. I learn as i go. "life" isnt some highschool/college
course that people get to take. I took shit like
"enviromental science" and "comic spirit" which are courses
that really dont apply in life but are credits i needed to
graduate.

Fuck off with your holier than thou attitude, you are not my
god.

***********************************************

To the rest of you,

Thanks for your words. It is rare that i make a serious
thread because i like to keep humor alive here. Thanks for
your support because it really does mean alot!

Behind this panda avatar and silly posting there is a human
being. A guy with wants and needs. Some guy who just wants
to have a stable job and beers with friends.

***continued***

Some guy with ideas and wants to make things work. I love my
friends i love my family and i usually seem to have it
pretty good. Everyone that is human has downtime. It
happens. We need to be supportive of people that are down
because pointless critisizm helps nothing.

This is going to be one superior challenge but i am going to
take a stab at it.

I'll keep you guys posted just in case one of you find
yourself here. Maybe if what i do works, it can help
another.

its a middle man for your checking account, etc whatever.

When i buy something off ebay or when im sending someone
money, i send it to their paypal (email) address. Paypal
takes the money from my credit card or checking acct and
deposites it into the receiver's account.

It's basically whta everyone uses to send money.

You should try signing up for one, wink wink

Dude, 267 dollars or whatever is NOTHING. Borrow it from
your parents or something. You're in a bind, surely they
will bail you out.

I have friends who owe tens of thousands of dollars and they
arent in court. So no worries there.

Im sure there's something in your room right now that you
could get that much money for on an ebay buy it now sale..
this is the punishment element perhaps.

What I'm trying to say is.. epohs has enough to let you
borrow that much

I am not really close with my family. I still communicate
with my sister and her family. They seriously dont have like
$20 to spare.

There are a number of my friends that are 100% strapped for
cash. They have jobs where they dont make the most and they
are living on there own trying to pay rent and buy food.

My mother knows about this because i asked to borrow $20 for
gas. I was on empty and i had to go to a local school to do
testing for an apprenticeship. She asked what happened to my
money and i carefully explained what happened. She explained
how she is not going to help me.

I completely understand.

see if there were transactions and then i put in the number
and its ok?
