Child help: Hi my name is Josh. - Help.com

Hi my name is Josh.

I have got myself into a big freaking jam. I work at blockbuster. I make about 700.00 every two weeks. I have screwed up and gotten myself five 500.00 cash advance loans out. I have to make my bills but these rates are outrageous. I have been trying to get out of this mess for 6 months now. I need help. I someone who has been in my position before to give me advice, direction, and if possible funds to help me get out of this mess. It is starting to effect my 2 year old daughter and her child support and i don’t want her to have to pay cause i made some bad choices. The amount needed to pay off these loans is about 2500.00 after that. If anyone could help me please i have no other manner of digging myself out. I would repay it I promise.

Truth is i know that money is the last thing anyone will send me. I also am not going to rule out the possibilities either. I am looking for any type of tool or advise that may help me.

I live with them now because of the split up with my ex wife to be. I live there rent free and they are also living paycheck to paycheck.

I went to a seminar on government grants this weekend but of course to get access to the grants there is a fee which gets me no where.

donate plasma. volunteer for a medical study. sell junk you’ve got lying around on ebay. deliver phone books. mow lawns. work more hours. stop spending money where you don’t need it. do you honestly want someone here to send you money?

I already donate twice a week that pays for the gas. Thought about Quintiles that may be a choice. My job will not give me overtime. Honestly i don’t expect it but at this point if someone has money to help me with that great. I Know now that when i money to help people out with i would send money. To be completely honest i would rather pay a resonable interest to a person rather to these institutions. If some gave me money I would make sure they got a return on there investment/help.

Sorry to hear you’re in a bad spot! I know what it feels like to be really desperate for money. I really wish I could help you, and if I could I really would send you money (I wouldn’t even expect it back) but I just got laid off from my job so I’m not too financially secure either. It sounds like you’re already trying to get yourself out of financial debt and I applaud you for that. I hope for the best for you and I’ll keep you in mind if one of my employment prospects comes through! Good luck!

Thanks. I really do wish I could do more to help than just offering an ear to listen.
