LIFE SUCKS : Money

life sux

My life sucks. Last week, I cut my finger on a tin can and it wouldn't stop bleedin g. I go to the doctor, they run all these tests, today I found out I have hepatitis C and I'm might die from it. My credit score is low and my car needs an oil change. I only have one week of vacation at work and I'm down to my last thousand dollars. I just finished my dinner but I'm out of milk for tomorrows breakfast and its waaay to cold to go to the store right now. Plus I think I pulled a hammy. I just don't know how I'm gonna get through this...

Yeahh??

So I've been writing on this website and ever since then life's still treating me the same since I last wrote here. I wonder in a month when my story gets publish will I still be in the same situation. Anyways, I am a 24 year old female, about to turn 25 in a few months. Graduated in May 2011 with a bachelor of science degree in business administration ( marketing). Ive been to five interviews since I've graduated and yet no one wants to hire me. The last one Interview I went to, I could of got hired but my stupid ass didn't want to work the hours they wanted me to work so I got turned down. And because of that I'm yet again stuck at my retail job which paid me not that much more than minimum wage without any benefits! My boyfriend got out of jail about five months ago which is a good thing because I waited for him for two years and that's the only thing that I'm actually happy. But he is a big gambler and my ass let him borrow money to gamble, thinking that I can use money to make money but I'm totally wrong, he lost couple of thousand that I've saved up. Now i only have a thousand dollar in my bank account. I have a loving family but I feel like I'm always letting them down. Shit, I just want a real job so I can support myself and my bf!!!!!! I want to stop stressing and stop feeling like a loser because I can't get a Dan job while other people my age is already married and starting their career!!!

I want to give the fuck up.

I don't know where to start. I have been through a lot during the past few years. A terrible breakup and severe health problems. After I healed up I tried to get myself a job but I've been led on by "internships" only for everything to be revealed as false promises. My current girlfriend lives with me and my parents. I love them all but the stress is killing me. My father is severely bipolar, my mother is bed-ridden and my girlfriend is overly jealous and materialistic. Whenever she screws up, I get the blame for it. My mother and father are sick of me living with them. I am struggling to find work (I live in the middle of nowhere). I only have $75 in my bank account and my girlfriend is guilt-tripping me into "not treating her properly" and having me buy things for her. I love her and I don't want to break up with her. She has a horrible home life and I'm afraid if we end of breaking up (something I don't want to happen), she might hurt herself or end up homeless (she isn't allowed back home, her mother stole all her money and bought a new house.)I have some deals on the table but I just felt really hopeless today. For the first time I felt I really wanted to die. I went for a walk last night and spent 3 hours in a graveyard, just lying there crying. I don't know what to do. I want to leave home but I have no money, I can't find work and I can't take this stress much longer.

I am totally fed up work all the hours but just live to survive paying bills etc never any left to save, health is not to good recetly my fam was in a car crash leaving them depressed and now sufferin gwith anxiety. my child is now ill aswell I just fight a never losing battle of shit and get nowhere

downward spiral...

When you're young, why don't your parents ever tell you life just gets harder and harder? Well, call me J, I'm 6 feet tall, blonde hair, hazel eyes and I'm homosexual. My life has never been that great. My mother is an addict, my father just feeds her addiction because he doesn't know what else to do, my entire family lives 3000 miles from me and I recently found out that I have a brother that was given up for adoption when i was 1 year old. don't get me wrong, I have great memories and I turned out to be a good person, but sometimes life feels like a sink hole I can't seem to get out of. I was recently studying to get a bachelors degree in fashion design, but found out a couple weeks ago that due to my lack of attendence I was withdrawn. So now, 2 years and 35,000 dollars later I have nothing to show for it, I can't even tell my family because I'm ashamed. Right now I work as a dancer at a night club and I make the perfect amount of money, but I hate it. My body is in pain constantly, I think I have a dislocated virtibrae, but I haven't had health insurance for over 4 years now so I can't even get myself checked out. I don't know what to do with myself. The only thing keeping me going is my boyfriend Tyler. We've been together a year and a half now and he is my rock. He reminds me to keep my chin up (which hasn't been easy lately) and to keep going, never give up...but I am giving up...slowly but surely. I'm lost.

dead beat dad syndrome

well. My ex husband and I had a baby on Christmas day of 1996, then we got married the 16th of may 1997, and I had a feeling he was having an affair with his boss, I confronted him and he denied it, said they were like brother and sister. Only to find out two months later when he didn't come home, that he had left our daughter and me for this other woman who was his boss, and he felt like a brother to. We got our divorce finalized July 1998, and they got married August 1998. they had two kids together and he never saw our daughter like he should have. She even told his parents when they came from jersey to visit every year that if they saw their first grand kid, my baby, that they would not be welcome in their house, and would not be allowed to see the two that they had, so the grandparents never paid any attention to our daughter for many years. Slowly but surely my ex husband quit paying any and all money due to me for medical bills, and child care that he was court ordered to pay, he currently owes me over $400.00 in medical bills, and over $2000.00 in child care. Then he quit paying the child support, and now he is currently about $10,000.00 behind, and the state of Florida refuses to do much to him. He has had his drivers license suspended 10 times, and he will walk into the support office and sign an IOU, and promise to make a payment and they give him back his license. We go to court for contempt and they tell him to pay an amount or he will go to jail, n...

Tired of everything

From the very beginning I seem to have been hand picked for suffering and punishment. I have Asperger Syndrome which prevents me from being able to have any kind of normal adult relationship with anyone and makes me so fucking stupid that I can't perform any job past the part time 15 year old type level. If this disability were not enough, I also have arthritis in nearly every joint and have Crohn's Disease. I pretty much can't go 20 minutes without excruciating pain and having to shit my guts out, which provides constant opportunities for embarrassment and humiliation. In the rare times where my illnesses and disabilities don't get in my way, just strokes of plain bad luck will pop up to keep me down. I've worked ten times harder than any person I know and don't have a penny to my name. I'm in $20k of debt, none of which is my own spending, all basically because a "friend" stabbed me in the back and stole my credit card information. I tried taking the case to court and lost because I was too much of a dumb fuck to even do that right. Both of my parents have severe mental illness and I'm largely responsible for looking after them as well as my sister who has severe autism. On top of all of this, I'm going to be stuck single my whole life because I was lucky enough to get some kind of virus that no Dr has been able to diagnose which has caused deterioration in my erectile tissue, making me unable to have sex. Oh yeah, and I'm slowly going blind too.
God just loves me so much.

I fucked up and should just give up

I am 22 years old. I am a college drop out with over $25,000.00 at least in debt. Debt in college loans and hospital bills. I went to college for 2.5 years and dropped out because I did way too much partying and never went to class. I never paid for my loans so they went to collections and I haven't looked at them in months. While in college I was hospitalized twice for "alcohol poisoning". I was totally conscious during my hospital visits. I was only taken because I was underage and it was going to the hospital or jail. I sat in the hospital for a couple hours and released with no treatment. $800.00 for each trip with no insurance they went to collections also. I have a DWI for driving after a party in college literally 100 feet and could see my apartment in view. I am over the DWI consequences except $360.00 for probation fees. I have 3 minor in possessions of alcohol during school. I have dealt with those but it does suck having them on my record now. I am a denial alcoholic who wants help but yes, rehab is a privilage of the rich. I was laid off a job at KFC because i didn't have a ride to work. After finding that job after 1.5 years of job hunting. I have no friends due to my drinking and no car because of the DWI. I live in a area where the closest business is an hour walk. I hate my life and considered suicide but with my luck I would not succeed. I would end up with brain damage from substance over dose or half a head to a shot gun. I want to help people and become very positive and do something with my life but within two years i have fucked up and what is the point now?

bad luck and trouble

i'm 45 years old, unemployed, separated, and about to go through a divorce.

i couldn't believe how well things were going in 1999-2000, the .com internet days! I had stock options worth over $4,000,000, just been married for 2 years, had a nice, new home with bright prospects for the future.

now, i'm over $100,000 in debt. i've failed at starting my own business, found out my wife had a sexual affair outside the sacred bonds of marriage, been diagnosed with mild depression, can't find a job, probably am about to lose my car, and the self-pity story goes on and on...

how did i find myself in this predicament? can things get any worse? probably. but then i think about cancer-survivor lance armstrong who came back from death to win the tour de france an unprecedented 7 consecutive times! sure, he's been accused of taking drugs, but has he? i don't think so. after all, in america, we are presumed innocent until proven guilty. such inspiration in lance armstrong's story.

also, i've been diagnosed with attention deficit disorder, slightly obese, and out-of-shape. my doctor wants me to lose about 20 pounds as my goal. so, i guess i gotta cut out the cheese and other fatty foods when i go to harris teeter with my vic card... oh well

will my problems ever cease? probably, not. i hope i'm not being too whiny, but you-know sometimes i get down, y know. it happens. and it is very slightly therapeutic to vent anonymously on the internet.

oh well, dog bless! and happy new year!

keep the faith! strenth and honor! what we do echoes in eternity!

It's not so bad!

I am in agreement, life sucks. Most certainly. People deal with it in different ways, my way is to try to fix it and constantly work at it.
This seems to work, I'd suggest doing this. Mostly it comes down to money.
I have £12 to my name right now. £12 in all the world. This is because my rent's gone out for this month and my student loan isn't due to drop in til the 9th Jan. I'm aware this isn't true debt, but even though I'm a student, if I have no money, I don't eat. It's as simple as that.
^.^ I intend to get a job as soon as someone will hire me. In the meantime there are good deals to be had at closing time in the supermarkets (if you like swede or gone off cake). I have somewhere to sleep at night, and although I can't really afford heating, there's a duvet and blankets in my flat so it's not that bad :) candles are great and very cheap. Heat AND light.

Look on the bright side ^.^ work hard and don't waste money/time on stuff that isn't beneficial to you (like cigarettes, alcohol, betting, drugs etc).
One day I want to be able to afford to have a baby and look after it ^.^
I'm studying nuclear physics, so hopefully being poor is a temporary thing, but the threat of not being able to eat certainly is a good motivation to study!

im stuck

so.. i got suspended from my work as a cashier after being short three times with a total of a thousand dollars. I can honestly tell to God that I really had no idea where that money went. A week later after I got suspended, police arrested me because the company I am working for filed a felony theft case against me. That is probably the worst nightmare in my life. Until now, I cant believe that I would go through that in my life. Now, I am unemployed. I feel so helpless because I cannot help out my family with our financial needs. This file charged against me and the arrested record will stay on my name until I prove to the court that I am innocent. I pity myself. Most importantly, I am supposed to be in the nursing program starting in 3 weeks and we have to submit and prove that we have a clean criminal background check. Ive been so worried that after all my hard work just to get in to the program, I will end up getting kick out because they will see my arrest record. Finishing nursing school is my very first priority in life and my family's dream. Now that I am not sure if I will be able to go to the nursing program, I feel like my life is just stuck. I dont know what Im supposed to do right now. Im so disappointed, mad, sad, and terrified what is the future waiting for me. What if they won't believe that I am innocent, what if I go in jail again? My dream will all fall apart. My family's hope will be crushed. You see I was supposed to be the first person in the family that will graduate in college. I got scholarships and government grants that pays for my tuition fees and school expenses. I work so hard but everything will go to nothing just because I was accused of something I DID NOT DO. I keep praying to GOD that I hope they'll find out the truth. I wish they will find where the money really went. But its been a month, and my court date is getting closer. They haven't drop the charge still. I don't know what to do. My life sucks.

I have had severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder my entire life, depression since grade 6, ADHD, and anorexia nervosa off and on since grade 6. My parents are both extremely mentally unstable and I have been raising them emotionally my entire life, as well as being abused by them. I never got a chance to be a kid. On top of all that, I am the absolute ugliest person in the entire world. (But who cares?! Absolutely no one, obviously.) I know I'm shit, and you know what? Feel better, because at least you're not the most unlucky, ugly fucked up person in the world. I'm also incredibly stupid, most likely the stupidest person you'll ever meet.

But here's the story. I have been saving money up on the side for over a year to dye my hair, as a 'treat' if I recovered from substance abuse, my eating disorder and self harm. I've remained recovered for over a month, so I went to the salon, and asked for a bleached blonde hair do. I was very excited about it, and almost cried of joy that I wouldn't be as ugly and person might actually like me. But I nearly burst into tears when I saw my reflection in the mirror. My hair was a bunch of colors that one might see in vomit. My hair is vomit colored. Worst thing of all? I wasted ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY TWO DOLLARS ON VOMIT COLORED HAIR. I CAN'T WASTE THAT KIND OF F*CKING MONEY. As soon as I walked out of the salon I burst into tears. When I got home, I had the worst meltdown I've ever had in my life. The sobs were uncontrolable and loud. The neighbours must've been scared. I haven't eaten since and don't plan to ever again. THANKS FOR THE FUCKING RELAPSE SALON, YOU ARE ABSOLUTE SHIT AND I HATE MYSELF SO MUCH. THE PAIN JUST WILL NEVER FUCKING GO AWAY. I HATE MYSELF.

I just don't know why nothing goes right for me. NOTHING.

Nobody will ever even read this, so what the fuck is the point?

My Story

Justtyped in 2 google cant get a job and have no money and ended up here. well what can I say I am 20 yrs old living in north-west england, I currently live with my family which consists of my brother, my sister, me nd mum and dad. No one in my familty works or has worked in the last 10 years. The legal age of working in this contry is 16 I have been tryin ever since my 16th birthday I am currently studyin in uni and will leave uni (considering I pass) with a debt of approxemtly £20,000. I spend most of my days in doors playing video games and not becasue I enjoy them, because I have nothin better to do. there is always fights and arguments between my parents (money issues) I have lost contact with most of my freinds because I have never been the type that gets close to people as past experience have taught me that the person I get close to will eventually screw me over (trust issues). Next errmmm oh yh theres girls nd well at times I think Im good with them and at other time I think am not. thing is I want a girl that i can stay with forever and not some small short relaltionships (p.s im a muslim). for sexual pleaseure i normally masterbate and have only had sex with 4 girls all which were prostitutes. life seems pointless and I seem to be wasting time and spending time by myself isnt helping. I have been doing this for well over a year now. I started drinking heavily every night for a good 7 months but have managed to quit drinkin all 2gether with the help of no1. My biggest fear is of the time I am wasting as I dont think I will get it back as I am young and these are the years that I am suppose to enjoy.

I have a misdemeanor 3 on my record just got fired from my job at lids they used me for the Christmas holiday but promised me a full time position I was putting $2000 a day in the register in sales but they let me go I failed out of Penn state the first year transferred to LaGuardia community college did one semester then never went back because of living situations, I lost the love of my life we were together for 3 years now she’s gone for ever and I miss her everyday and it seems only ugly girls want me I don't have a dime to my name my family doesn't respect me because i was incarcerated so they treat me like shit and its really hurting me inside, I drive an old school benz that's it good shape but I have no gas and the state is threatening to take my license away for a year for failure to pay court fees oh yea I just got it back 1 month ago after waiting 2 years for it…… long story all my friends are going out to a club but I have no money I cant go everyone in my family has money but they are stingy when I had money I would give up my last dollar now I'm fucked up everyone forgot and wont help me, my fathers loosing his house its currently in foreclosure I have no nice clothes o yea I owe the state of new york city $1500.00 in parking tickets luckily I live in long island so they cant put a boot on it or better yet to...

I never learned that trick...

56 years old, two years of college, no friends or family I can turn to. Unemployed again, three months this time. I'm fortunate enough to be getting unemployment though that's only good for another couple of months. I had a good job, cooking and barbacking a few nights a week, so I had some money saved up.

From the first day I started looking diligently for work as best I could. I polished up my resume as best I could and from then on spent several hours a day scanning the listings on a number of the largest online job sites in search of anything for which I was even remotely qualified. I live in a large city so most days I was able to find two or three local jobs listed. I submitted applications and a copy of my resume for all of them. A couple of times a week I drove to the state employment office to look at their lists of jobs and to just talk with someone, trying to find some guidance to help improve the odds of my finding work.

It's been three and a half months now. My savings are all gone. I'm still getting $187 a week in unemployment which doesn't even begin to cover my living expenses. I have a housemate to share expenses with and have cut my spending back to the bare minimum and it's still not enough. I had recieved an email from an IT Staffing agency on Tuesday, looking for someone to fill a position with a local firm that looked quite promising but I learned this afternoon that the position had gone to someone else. No other prospects at th...

Damn it all

This isn't going to be the worst thing that has ever happened to anyone, but for me, it's fucking hell. I'm 25, and just 2 years ago, I exited the Marine Corps honorably, moved to be closer to family, got a crap job to get things started, and found a barely-reliable car to get me to work for a year or so, until I could afford to get a better, safer one. Fast forward to today... I struggle to pay the rent every month, and probably won't have a place to live come New Years. I can't save enough money to get a car that is reliable in any sense of the word, much less eat more than once a day. I owe my step-father almost 500 dollars, and either way he thinks that I am lazy and unreliable. As I said earlier, I can only eat once a day, sometimes not at all, in order to have enough money to pay rent for the month. I was never good at school, barely got my diploma in high school, and am just getting off acedemic probation from the local community college. I used to be an MMA fighter who was proud of what I'd accomplished. Now I feel like an abused dog limping on the road and nobody is willing to help. I'm tens of thousands of dollars in debt, soon to be homeless, haven't had a girlfriend in 5 years, no self confidence or self esteem, family isn't willing or able to help, and my friends can't or won't help either. My current roommates either smoke and sell weed and live beyond their means, or drink themselves into nightly comas while living like hermits with no contact with the outside world except through facebook. The biggest problem with that, is that I feel myself becoming that way, and I don't know how much longer I can maintain sanity or health if this keeps up. No money, fucking useless car, part time job as a rent-a-cop, no food, and about to be homeless... Thanks alot God, you really do look out for those in need... asshole

Imperial Wazoo

You think your life sucks? MY life sucks. Forced out of work due to disability around age 40, I at least had a home, paid for, out in the country -- which my late father purchased for me. At one point, I got an equity loan, to do some fix-ups (while I was still physically able to do it.) At first, all was well; I knew damn well I was dealing with Mafia Mutual, it's what I expected, with lousy credit. I got along fine with them; then the feds busted them for (ironically) loan fraud, and the loan was arbitrarily given to Saxon. This company is a bunch of thugs that are only out to steal your property. I've been fighting with them for years, now. The loan amount, by the way, never seems to get any less -- 32 grand. (I actually got 25K in hand, at the time of the loan.) As health continues to go down the tubes, I'm trying to do EVERYTHING on less than $700 per month (let's see you do it!) If Saxon takes the house, I'll just burn it down and let 'em steal a pile of ashes. Nothing wrong with this life that either a lottery win, or a good 9mm hollow point, wouldn't cure.

I was born to die

Ever since I was a baby. I remember my mother telling me that my life would be hard for me. I would have to work %200 to get %100. & others will only work %50 & get %200. I see what she means. I am sorta intelligent. Well I have built websites, Filmed stars, Promoted . & I'm still broke. I mean $0 in my bank account. I work hard & smart - I have over 20 talents. Only dancing has paid off. After being hit by a car that dream was dead .
Maybe I have a curse on me. Ever toy, Digital devise, & friend Gone. I brought a rc car it broke the first day. So I brought another one the next day. & It broke in 20 min... When I was about 10 I got rc car. That broke the first day.
What a Christmas. My uncle said our cars was on the same channel. Whatever.. I noticed what my mother said was true.
I will grow up to be nothing.
I had a job one time in a factory 10 miles away from my home. I was fired the 2nd week for being 30 minutes early. Not by my supervisor but by the main boss.
New factory New job had it for almost 1 year. I quit, I noticed only 1 kind of people get raises & promotion.
I seen it happen - 1 month work next month pay raise. But not me. Just remembered I been going to Supreme Cort for robbery for the past year. fyi I'm gonna sue. I didint do it They Have No Evidence. Why was I arrested. Mistaken identity. I heard that one enough times.
I want to believe I am jinxed Vodo or something. I pray but it things just get worst. I might do something crazy soon!!!

Here we go again...

Well I've been through it all heartbreaks with girls,dealt with family members being addicted to drugs,i've made it to the top with a mercedes, big time paying job, beautiful girlfriend and lost it all. Life can be tough, I've made investments that have gone no where and put me in debt so bad that I am still struggling to pay them to this day.Every month I am worried about how i am going to pay my bills and it's been like that for the past 5 years, I have no bank account because I can't save and don't think i'll be moving out my parents house anytime soon but through my years on this world I have learned that I ahve become a strong individual through these bad times in my life.. I laugh at my friends who complain they can't get the latest gadget or best car or newest jordans or can't pay there cell phone bill, please those are tiny problems compared to some people especially someone like me, I tell them want my problems probably not because they can't handle my problems....They stress over petty things that don't bother me one bit because i've been through more than them, so people complaining about small little problems you are weak so grow up because to me you all are still little young minded people...I'm powering through the negativity while most of you let it consume you shame on you, wake up and start being happy and follow your dreams because through all this I am still rising to the top..

No Food, No Money on Christmas Day

I had to use the roll of quarters I use to do laundry to go buy food on Christmas Eve. A roll of quarters is $10.00. I used that to buy yogurt, celery, a candy bar and 2 ounces of feta cheese. So that was my Christmas Eve dinner. There was still some celery and yogurt left so that is what I ate for Christmas Day. I won't get my Social Security benefits until January 3rd and there is no food left in the house. I have no idea how I will eat for the next 8 days. I already went to the food bank 2 weeks ago and they only let folks get donated food once a month. It is very depressing.

I get $1114 a month from Social Security. My rent is $600 a month for a one room studio, which is always the first thing I pay. That leaves $514.00 left. A monthly bus pass is $100 a month - which leaves $414 for utilities and food. It is always the same story every month - there is never enough money for my food budget, since utilities are about $100 a month - $314 to buy food for one month is not enough to survive on. I use to get $16 a month in Food Stamps but that is going to be completely eliminated because I'm going to get a 3.6% COLA increase in Social Security benefits.

I don't turn on the heat very much in the winter and just bundle up with blankets, socks and a sweater most of the time. I have a $44 utility bill I cannot pay and my power will be turned off soon unless money falls out of the sky.
