work help: Hi Guys, I need help, would any of you be willing to donate a pound to me? - Help.com

Hi Guys, I need help, would any of you be willing to donate a pound to me?

I desperately need a car so that I can get out and about, I am unable to work due to poor health and only have a very low income

I have set up a blog to try and raise £3000 to get a decent used car and will be updating the blog at regular intervals monitoring progress and amount raised so far, I really dont like asking for help but I cannot see any other way

My blog is here http://donatemeapound.blogspot.co.uk/

Please help if you can, thank you

Tim

If your health is so poor you can’t even work, you should stay in bed, not be out and about.

No need for the nastiness guys it was a polite request,as for my health I am a severe agoraphobic and the reason I need a car is so I can try to overcome my agoraphobia gradualy I cannot just walk out the door and down the street, maybe if I can overcome it then I could get and keep a job! a $3000 Car in the us is most likly a luxary compared to what we can get for that here in england

and whatever you migh flame me for at least I am trying to do something about my illness.

How much time you got? It took about 9 years but there is the legit story of a guy that started with a nonworking cell phone and traded up and up for different items using only craigslist. At the end of the 9 years he had himself a lightly used Porsche….

Tim. I see you haven’t been here that long so I will clue you in. First,

The☠President wrote:

is not being nasty. Rather polite coming from a Mod actually.
Second. We have no funding to give money to anybody. We offer answers and advice, nothing more. That is the way this site was set up 6+ years ago.
Third. What you perceive as “nastiness” is because we get requests ALL THE TIME for handouts. Go to Search and find all the posts and replies involving the word “money”. You will find thousands. Some were sincere like yours. Some were less sincere. And still others were down right scams. We don’t discriminate as to which is which. We can’t. That is not why we are here.

Thank you for explaining that to me southern_comfort, I can understand why my post got the reaction it did now, with hindsight I should have looked around a bit before posting (or not posting)

I apologize for any inconvenience caused, I certainly never intended to annoy or upset anyone.

Tim

All of my replies are worth a hundred pounds, so now you owe me ninety-nine in change.
It may be that if you browse around a site like http://www.cbsnews.com/moneywatch/ then you’ll figure out how to earn that 99 pounds. I hope so.

Sorry, no money here.

While we at help.com are really sorry about your situation, I’m not sure anybody here is able to help you.

The only thing I can send you is lots of blessings and good wishes.

If you came here looking for money, sorry there is no money. As far as donations of any kind, I don’t think you’re going to find that here either. However, I might be wrong. I hope someone who can help you sees your plea. Sorry.

We at help.com are so broke we cannot pay attention.

Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Tell him to go away and he’ll have to learn how to hunt caribou and become king of the eskimos, living happily ever after.
