in response to seekinghelp2012...how do you eat an elephant? one bite at a time. the answer is a snowball effect with a livable budget. key word livable. you cannot live on romen noodles and staying home. but you can eliminate that debt on your own con-solidation places are just that. even if they are ligit and mean well the power needs to lye on you. i have done this too. live and learn trust me snow ball that 500.oo a month in ten months you would have taken care of 5,000 of that debt, but at the rate it will go faster than that. because your other debts will be eliminated entirely. write down all of you debts even if there is an over due library book. 1 dollars. to largest debt home mortguage. pay only the minimum payments on all of them and focus the remaining money on the smallest or smallest 2-3 debts say a furniture bill or small credit card. and then pour the savings into next months debts and repeat. i got a easy to under stand from a chapter in the book called "Getting control: the complete guide to getting yourself out of horrible debt by troy flora available on amazon.com good luck! any qestions just ask me. i did it and you can too.
hi..i really don't know from where to start..my life is suddenly upside down..i lost my job 5 months back,my sister got diagnosed with breast cancer and i have no money left..the truth is i don't even knw how am i going to eat after a few days..hell i am so desperate i am searching google for money now and happen to find this forum..i really didnt know that such a forum even exists..and i find now there are so many people who are so desperate to find some money..i dont know what else to say and its too weird but if there is really anyone who is kind enough to help i will honestly appreciate it..and i will pay your debt as soon as possible..thanks anyways
in response to seekinghelp2012...Consolidating debts is rarely the best way to go in trying to reduce your debt levels. Best thing to do is to develope a budget and a plan and stick to it.
Does anyone know of a place to consolidate debts for persons with bad credit. I would even consider peer to peer lending if there are any wealthy individuals willing to help a single, graduate student, with a full time job. I've suffered some financial misfortunes but I'm trying to get back on track. I need about $50,000 and I can comfortably pay be $450 - $550 per month. Please help in any way that you can and it will be greatly appreciated.

in response to Linda D....Hi if you sign up for freebies, you can get many free things emailed to you daily. Also search for freebies on facebook and look for giveaways of items nearly daily. Finally, you can email companies directly..whatever product your needing if you contact them via email and tell them how much you love their product, they will usually send you some coupons..last year alone I received 30 in diaper coupons, 10 in free dog food coupons, etc...its time consuming but well worth it..I have free things come in the mail everyday..you can also do swagbucks a legit site that you can earn giftcards and money for doing surveys etc...hope this helps

in response to Godspeed1...We sent you several emails and messages with no response from you. The packages are at the Paterson fedex distribution center. You failed to give us an apartment number and phone number. Im not sure why you would not have included an apartment number? Fedex tried to deliver 6 times but does not have the correct information. Please check your email!
I thought that my dreams were suppose to come and be satisfied from the Polo family and it did not because the Polo family agree to send me some presents for my child that is four years old and had told me that the items (presents) for my son supposely be here last Thursday by Fed-Ex, And i waited for a dream that did not come true, Thank You Family Polo.......

What in the Christmas Cookie is going on with my space! It's frikin' alive! It has a mind of it's own. Quit screwin' with my junk whoever you are! It's all I got dude?>?+_!*%#!!!!@&*. I'm going to try and fix it. As long as I am here. To anyone that can hear me (hear?). I am in some bad...you know what? I was gonna ask for money cuz poor Johnny's hurting. So the hell is everyone else! I will work it out myself...come hell, come high water! We are all in the same situation. We are all broke and yes...Christmas is hello? It's here people. My family is in dire straits and two , three can fix it. Myself, my wife and God! And we will! How? yes work, when we can find it. I'm not even gonna go on. I pray for each of us fervently, often and with sincerity and we're all gonna do just fine!~ Use the Lord....love him. I guarantee, he'll love ya back an infinite amount! Surrender! Give it to God! Lay it on his lap! Give it AND yourself to God. There is one way to him and, that is through Jesus Christ our Lord and King! Sheath your sword, warrior of God and bow on bended knee! Confess your sins and repent! You are his! Can you give your life to someone else? I did. Jesus gave his for us but, have you ever watched the movie "The Passion"? I dare you!! Do it! If we don't all come together here people....ain't none of us gonna get nothing! You know the other thing to? We die! Did you know that? Ya....we die. There is another Kingdom...ready for us, for you, for your children, for your children's children! God's Kingdom-Paradise! One way to get there. Through Jesus! You either go or, you don't. There is a hell by the way. The Holy Bible paints a pretty good picture of it more than once. No thanks. I'm good, I have it all. I just need to get out of this financial funk that is ripping us all apart. Satin is having his way with ya'all and your allowing it! He's got us right where he wants us at the perfect time! We need to come together...we need to rebuke his evil and ask the Holy Spirit for forgiveness and to fill our souls with his Spirit to overflowing!! Stand together as Christians...reunite! The weak get stronger....the meek shall inherit the earth! Lets help each other help ourselves and use the power of prayer.
God please send me an angel I'm trying so hard I know you work in mysterious ways I will not lose faith in you. Thank you for all you have blessed me an my family with.
I needed help long before Christmas Time started to roll around.I'm not too proud to ask for help but, since I lost my job ...I felt that help others and God will help you.So I spend my down time when not looking for work at the local food bank and shelter helping others.I have the usual problems a lot have with making my bills and health as well as depression.My problems are not as bad as others but I have to everyday pray for the strenghtn to keep busy finding a way to stay off the street and the poor house.I didn't think I'd find time to write this but the head of the food bank made me take a day off and gave me Aidpage URL address.I hope someone can find hope and help from what I do and say everyday whether or not anyone helps me..I know I've done all I could for them.I guess I'm asking for whatever you'd like to help me with.I know God will bless thoses who bless others so thats why I'm not pressing anyone for help...their been Times I had seems nothing at all and God made a way for me,So pray and believe I know he'll make a way for you too!

in response to Daneen...Hi, Daneen, I was so glad to hear from you, you actually made my day! Look here, My Friend, as long as you have a fighting spirit within you, and God to give your needs to, you will be just fine. It is so easy to worry about tomorrow, and the next day, and the next week, month....BUT, you know, as well as I that He always meets our needs, and a lot of the times, it feels like the 11th hour according to our time schedule, but HE always takes care of what we need. I truly do believe that He brings people into our lives just at the right time, to help us get through whatever it is we have on us. May God Bless and hold you and your little sweet family lovingly and so protectively in his hands. I do wish you the best Christmas ever, you are definitely in my prayers. Your Friend roxy
in response to Yetta...You know its funny because I am not even sure how I stumbled on this page and when I was typing I never expected to hear from anyone and I really didn't think that there would be anyone that would be able to help- Funny how things work out when we don't do any of the planning ourselves- God just takes over our lives and puts the people, places and things in there that he knows we need- we just sit back and get so surprised and so filled up with warmth and love- Thank you for taking the time to write- I know if you were like me it wasn't that easy- you probably ran a bunch of crazy thoughts through your head and wondered how I would take it if you did write- well glad you did and I am feeling wonderful- Baby is crying now so gotta run but just wanted to express my Thanks!!
in response to Daneen...Its my pleasure. I am available quite often, at least until January and School starts back up. I would be more than happy to be someone you can unload off onto about your worries. I know exactly how you feel. I was in an extremely abusive relationship for several years, and I worried every day that someone would find out how we were living. I was always covered in bruises and cuts, with broken bones and exhausted from not being allowed to sleep. My family's finances have been bad since I was 12, when my mother died. My father was heavily disabled, and as a young teen, I learned how unimportant material things are, and how to stretch money farther than I should. I am working on getting a law degree now, I refuse to envision my future living in the poverty I have grown accustomed to. I want to give back. I help coordinate and run a homeless shelter, and during warmer months I volunteer for habitat for humanity, but I will never be able to repay the kindness that I have been shown in the last few years by complete strangers, and close friends. I would love to pass on the encouragement and love they have shown me onto you. I really hope you are doing well, and this Christmas will be wonderful, just have faith....( I know I have to remind myself that every day right now) {hugs}
in response to Yetta...Wow Yetta you are right and I am so happy that you took the time to just say hi and that you are available- It's amazing when we are going through all the heartache we feel so all alone and then we look around and start reading about others that have it even worse off- I guess no matter how bad that it seems there is always someone where else that has it worse that needs our support- Having people like you around that just take a minute to offer help and an ear just warms my heart and makes me feel very blessed- there is so much love and compassion in the world that seems heartless and evil- God does make his presence clear to us and we are able to help one another and grow strength from one another by just sharing and caring- remember the door opens booth ways and talking between friends sometimes is the best cure for all we are going through- I have also figured out lately that some of the best friends that I have ever had have been complete strangers!! Amazing!! Who comes up and steps up to the plate when we need that extra support- humbling ourselves and just asking for it seems to be the major draw back that a lot of us go through I know I was completely embarrassed and ashamed to write on here and was really terrified that someone I knew might run across it and read it all- there was no way that I wanted anyone in my family or friends circle to know how bad my life has become- stupid huh? The things that cause us to withdraw and isolate are sometimes absolutely silly and stupid-
Well my kids are waiting for me to help decorate the house for Christmas- we are having a nice meal thanks to the Food bank- we have a bunch of hand me down Christmas decorations from friends and family members and the kids are truly excited about the amounts of decorations that we have- we are going to have the most festive house in town- thank you to all who help deck us up!
Have a wonderful Christmas and a Blessed New Year- I look forward to getting to know you and again Thank you for taking the time to write me!!
in response to lil worker-ant...Hi Roxy-
You know taking the time to show you support and including my family in your prayers means so much more then anything anyone can financially do for us- sometimes its like a huge long lonely dark tunnel and the littlest support from someone like yourself makes me feel not so all alone and heart broken- I know its hard right now for us and I things are strained but the best thing is that we are safe- I don't have to worry about what is going to happen- I do not have to shield my children from violence- we have great gifts in just that- however that doesn't pay the bills- it doesn't do all the day to day things that we need to survive but we seem to always make it through each day- our basic needs are being met so God is looking out for us- when I am feeling out of sorts and useless I get an encouraging word like the one I just got from you- I know things will work themselves out and my children will not have to live the life of chaos and violence I have broken the cycle and have showed them that people can get out of these situations and showed them that they were loved enough for me to protect them and get them far away from the destructive life style that we were living. I pray that my children learn self worth from this and that they can do whatever they set their eyes and hearts on- that they learn to help people that our suffering from similar situations- I take them when I go to the women's shelter and never avoid any questions about what, where and why we left and the importance of why we need to talk to other ladies that are going through similar situations that they don't have to live like that and that they can get out of and be safe. Some times our story helps people sometimes they are just to scared and things just don't change. Well there you go a little more about me and my family- guess I have needed to vent a little and stop holding everything in.
I really pray that you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and a blessed New Year. Thank you for taking the time to reach out- My heart and my spirit have truly been renewed. Thank you for the wonderful Gift!!
Hi Daneen, I'm Roxy.
I know where you're coming from, and believe me when I say that my heart goes out to you and your family. I do so pray that a special angel sees your post, and helps you beyond your wildest imagination.
It is so hard to live day to day, and week to week. Believe this, if I were well off, I'd be the first one in line to help you. I pray for only the best for you and your sweet family.
I REALLY wish I had something to share with you and your family besides encouraging words. I myself am in a similar situation, utilities being disconnected, and until a few months ago, I had no transportation for the last...ummm....6 or so years. I have four kids, and haven't been able to afford Christmas since my oldest was born, 10 years ago. We live on a month to month basis, and sometimes we get utilities disconnected, sometimes ( like last month), I totally screw up our finances by wrecking our only form of transportation and end up spending hundreds of dollars fixing it instead of paying Bills, buying food, or buying Christmas. I KNOW how hard life can get sometimes, and I KNOW how stressful the holidays can be, and I KNOW how life can just kick you till your down, and kick you while your there. I WILL say though, that these are the things that make us stronger. These times are the ones that give us hope for better times and we will survive, we will see better days, and we will always understand the hardships life can throw at us which teaches us to be compassionate towards others. If you ever need to talk, feel free to get in touch with me. I'm a good listener.
Hi im a single mother of a 2 yr old little girl in randolph MA.... i ve been struggling this year so much to the point i cant even pay my bills or rent i just fill chapter 13 just to keep my car ....im just wondering if there is anyone willing to help give my baby a little christmas .... or can give me a few good places to look for help in donation.....i wish to thank you for even stoping and ready this and if anyone has any response and again thank you and god bless you . email me, epierrelouis@live.com
Dear Helping Hand. I am in a terrible bind. As I sit here at the library computer, I look in desperation for either a used computer or new one if that is possible. For over 12 years I have worked on my 98 computer and it has currently crashed. Besides this I cannot get internet for 98 computer, so getting it fixed is out of the question.
Before this happened I sold books on Amazon. My retirement social security only covers my rent and small bills. In order to live I must sell online. Getting a job on the books is out of the question, because I would lose my Medicaid.
My accounts are suffering and I am afraid I will be suspeneded from Amazon. I have lost weight and my hair is falling out because I don't have money. As I sit here I have $2.00 in my pocketbook and my car has less than quarter of a tank of gas; I only have food until Friday. I can't get to a Food Bank because I don't have enough gas.
I can prove my Social Security by my award letter and I have a stack of unpaid bills.
I am a grandmother of 2 wounderfull gransons I am on a fixed income and am asking for christmas assistance for the 2 boys. They have been thru a lot in the past 6 months they didnt ask to be in this sitation there in so if there is a special person willing to help them please email me. God Bless
I am a mother of three children trying to better myself. I have fallen behind on my light bill and they are in jeopardy of being turned off, if any one has any insights that could help please let me know. thank you and God Bless.
in response to Anomaly...LMAO, yes they are andare you in hog heaven?I doing about as well a can be expected. Still breathig, that's the main part, lol.Yeah, I check it out 2-3 times a day just to see what is going onthen there are days I don't bother.When they changed things here, it sure changed things. I tried telling them. Of course it didn't help to have a swindler pointed out and a couple die.or go to a home.I hope they are all happy with the money they are getting and I'm sure they are. Well got to go , Tootles
Good to hear from you! :) I had been thinking of sending you a message. It's good that you are online from time to time. I am doing well--thanks! Things are finally picking up for me. How are you?
I know that you already know this, but...THE HOLIDAYS ARE HERE!!! I had been waiting all year. :)
