I don't know what to write to make you care about me.
My story is not nearly as bad as some of these people on this website, but I need help and don't know where else to turn. I've been working since 17 and up until just about a year and a half ago, I had a great job. When I lost that job, I spent 5 months unemployed and racked up huge bills. I then have been bouncing around from minimum wage job to less than minimum wage job. I finally got hired on with a temp agency, but they have recently laid me off. Even when I was working with them, I was barely making enough to cover my bills. Now, 4 weeks later, after having no job, I have the following bills:
Storage Facility - $115.00 - Due Date November 30th, 2009
When I was asked to leave my parents house, I had to move into a 1 room bedroom in another person's house. Considering I had to still share that room with their library and other storage items, there is only enough room for my bed and my computer. Everything else I own, books, movies, heirlooms, and furniture was placed into a storage facility. The storage facility is now locked for non-payment and unless I can come up with the money somehow, everything I own with auctioned off the 21st of December.
Car insurance - $240.00 - Due Date November 29th, 2009
This is a routine bill I should normally be able to pay if I was employed. As it stands, because of my previous tardiness for being to broke when the bill came in, on the 15th of December, I will not have insurance anymore.
Speeding Ticket - $180.00 - Due Date November 30th, 2009
Back in June I was hit with a relativity minor speeding ticket. I went to court in September, but couldn't afford to pay the bill, so I asked for an extension on the amount. They gave me until the end of November to pay or else they were going to suspend my license. Although I will be appearing in front of a judge later this week, I do not know of the outcome of my license, because for the time being it is currently suspended.
Personal Property Tax - $145.00 - Due Date October 15th, 2009
This is another bill that I just didn't have the money for. I was pulled over last week for a out blinker and this and my suspension both came up. They wanted to impound my car, but I explained my dire need and they gave me a pass, but I know it won't be that way again.
These are what I'm dealing with, not to mention my other bills of phone, food and gas. I've been given a pass on rent and my car payment, but it isn't enough right now. Even if I got a job tomorrow, I wouldn't be paid in time for most of these bills. I need help.
