I wouldn’t need to be on this list. Net worth means after debt, and if I had that much net worth, my debt would not be causing me grief. Also, if I didn’t have any debt problems, paid my debts on time and saved as I need to, lived within my means at all times, I again wouldn’t need this list. The reason I need this list is I have done, and sometimes continue to do, stupid things. Some I repeat, which is really stupid, and some are new “challenges.” Nevertheless, I need the advice and moral support of this list.

I was unjustly banned because I did not violate any rules, all I did was tell people the same thing I tell my self everyday. I give the same advice that I would want to hear.
This is not the playground at recess, financail difficulties are very serious and can even ruin marriages so why should I be ‘nice’ and
give bad advice when I could be ‘firm’ and give good advice?
I have been trying to say nice things and give good advice.
BTW, you did not answer my question and it could help me, you.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

I think hardship is perfectly valid for perfectly valid circumstances. So, the question becomes ‘What is a valid circumstance?’.
My HUMBLE opinion is: Only extreem unforseen medical disabilities are valid circumstances, most/all other circumstances can be planned
for.
Boy scout motto: Be prepared.Yes, I think I was banned unjustly because I am straight forward and honest. Financial instability is to important to have someone be nice to you and not give you good advice. I personally would rather have someone yell at me with good advice.

since I still have my job, full time and we “only have 1 child”. Apparently, agencies are not set up to help folks like us. The thinking seems to be that if you have any income at all, you make “too much money” (We have actually been told this) and also that we “only have 1 child” – WTF???? As if we had 6 kids, it would be better? Cold is cold.

I did contact the energy company today and they are going to accept less $$$$ this month (same due date) and then divide up the remainder and add it onto the future bills, month by month. So, in the future, we have even higher energy bills! Yippee!!!!

As if a man who is laid off in the first place can afford to do without a paycheck, even a partial one.
We have eliminated a lot and will cut some more. I am so determined to save a lot more money in the future as we conquer these debts, so that I don’t have this “what next???” feeling anymore. It is not the way I want to live.
Why didn’t she have anything saved up? Living paycheck to paycheck is a step up for some people. Trying to keep up with the mere costs of day to day living, plus keep the debt collectors at bay, etc. leaves very little room for error and even less “extra” to save. Trust me on that.
Once we get a handle on this month, somehow, some way, we will work on next month.
Today, I reached the utility company and they agreed to lower the amount due for this month, and extend the full amount due out over the coming months, by adding it bit by bit to the current amount due each month. Woo Hoo! Higher utility bills in the future! Something else to look forward to. 🙂

To the person who suggested charging the bill this month – no credit cards. We got rid of them in an effort to work the Dave Ramsey plan and simplify our lives. We got tired to the fees, the interest charges, the terms changing like the wind and finally just stopped using them. When you stop using them, life really is easier.

I packed up all of the spring clothes that I ordered for our son and they will be returned tomorrow, so we will have that money back at our disposal. Our son will be without his new spring clothes. He won’t realize it, but I know it and it pisses me off. Still, we have to put it off for now.

Sometimes, you just get tired. Tired of the BS. Tired of the whole situation. Tired of the rat race. It is just ridiculous.

I live a very simple life, work hard and save money. Just live within my means and work as many hours as I need to(40, 60, 80). I do not have a cell phone(wife does), no cable or high speed internet till I was 44, and still no AC or dishwasher, all are luxeries that I will buy when I feel I can afford them.
Plan for emergencies. Layoffs have been a way of live for the last 20 years so I definitely planned for it by have 3-6 months money saved, a resume ready at all times, a no-fee HELOC, etc. I lost my job and still took our China/Japan vacation the next month and was able to afford medical insurance without any problems.

My brother went through a divorce three years ago after 19 years of marriage, two teenage boys. No money problems for either with the
divorce because they had about $300,000 in net worth that they divided up. No bankruptcy.

Both times we had no savings and were living paycheck to paycheck. The last time he got laid off the day I found out I was pregnant. I know the fear you are going through. I would suggest taking your bills and listing them from important (food, electric, mortgage, etc.) The things that keep your roof over your head come first. Then the extras – phone, cable, credit card bills. Each month you figure out what is coming in and what you can pay, draw a line and everything under that line does not get paid.

cell phone, home phone, internet, cable, etc. Sell something…Ebay, Craigslist, yard sale, etc. Do odd jobs…mowing lawns, shoveling snow, babysit, etc. Get a job delivering pizzas or waiting tables…you can make some money quick in tips (don’t have to wait until payday). Cut your budget down to the minimum….try and see what you can make out of your pantry and freezer instead of grocery shopping, carpool to save on gas and plan all your errands for one trip, don’t go out to eat – eat at home and check out a movie from the library for entertainment, etc. See if there are any programs, such as your church, that could help. Worst case scenario…if your heat was cut off, could you stay with friends or family temporarily until the issue is resolved?
I know if our heat was cut off, my mother or mother-in-law would insist we come to their house (especially since you have a toddler). When my DH and i were first married, he was a web designer and the tech bubble burst. He was out of work for a LONG time. He did whatever he could…bagged groceries at the supermarket, worked overnight stock at Target, etc.
It’s not easy, but you can do it! I’m sure others will have lots of suggestions as well.

Any service that you pay on a monthly basis, call to cancel (ie cable tv, satellite radio) or reduce to a minimum plan (ie cel phone contracts) tomorrow first thing.
Look at what bills are due coming up. What do you not /have/ to pay? CC’s and optional services would be included in that list. You mentioned car insurance. How many cars do you have? If more than one look to your state laws to see what you have to do to properly cancel the insurance on all but one.
Does your church offer assistance for such things? Are there other charities you can tap at this time?
