NT; I've hit ROCK bottom....I can't even fall off anymore

[high class scum bag]

Some may remember my situation from other threads, but for those who don't know i'll give the cliff notes.

*Last year my mortgage doubled and I ended up losing my crib
*I had a decent job, and I left my job to get a better paying job and got laid off from the new job within 60 days and 2 days before X-mas

Then today, it got worse...I took my car in to get a new water pump and they dropped the bomb on me. I need a new engine for my car. I knew engines werecostly, but I didnt know a new engine for a 7 series BMW is $18,000...yes, $18 stacks.

At the minimum it's going to cost me $9000 to fix. That's IF I can find a wrecked car w/ a good engine and there's no guarantee a used engine willlast..

Other than health issues, I dont think it can get much worse. No job, no crib and credit is shot due to foreclosure...

I guess I'll just go get me a 10 speed...

hope things turn around, but remember, all these things are material.

As long as your alive, there's always a way out.

I live by that.

 

[revtommy34]

Everything can be fixed. You are not that bad. Get a job and start back slow.

 

[doublejs07]

Didn't you JUST buy your house? Did the $@%! get foreclosed?

Nowhere to go but up...stay strong, boss.

Sell everything, and travel....

[ghenges]

You could get a nice reliable, pre-owned late model Corolla for 9k.

Work a bum job until you get another one. Overnight stocker at a grocery/department store. Don't turn your nose up to anything.

As long as you have your health, you have everything.
All the other crap that you are worried about can be replaced over time.
