Mark_Andrews asked:

So I’m a student who’s only just having the responsibility of finances being thrust upon me. I’m not from a wealthy family (SIngle parent), and therefore the idea of having money that I earn myself has meant before I’d just squander it on whatever.
However, soon I’m off to university/college and dread it… I’ll not receive much financial support from home so I need saving tips!

Appreciated!

When my dad comes home from work he doesn’t even notice me.
My brother is always signed up for sports, Baseball n Hockey, for school and out of school teams.
This summer I’m signing up for B-ball, to get to see my friends since their signing up for the same team.
It only cost 20 bucks n my grandpa probably going to pay it, and for the cleats.
But my brothers stuff cost 100 and over!! Thats just for the gear!! While I, if I ask for proactive or something(for my skin) they’ll get REALLY MAD over that!! (There realy cheap for me) soo I probably end up never getting it untill my skin goes really bad. they never buy anything for me.
Then they give him 5 or 10 dollars evy night, while i have to do chorus to earn my money, and im only 12 and hes like, 17!!! It makes me want to cry sometimes. So what should I do?
(theres more stuff, but it be too long to type.)

jean_g asked:

I have a 6 month old daughter and I am staying home taking care of her. I want to find a job that i can do from my house so i have a little pocket money coming in. Even though my husband is working i want to be able to have some money that i earned on my own so i can spoil my daughter. As well as help with bills.

oooooooo asked:

If I could have avoided this crisis in health with working in my profession, which I could have done, I would be a normal weight now. I would be working part time probably, have a good income. I know, I wrote my book. It said we could never know what could have been. Yes. I said that. They did not like my writing that book here at all regarding my religious beliefs. I forced it on no one. It was not going to be a best seller, that is for sure.

I would also be able to afford to return to my music lessons which I have put off for years,and be writing as I have always done.(poetry, music, and
narratives or articles.) No. I did not earn money from these. It is a possibility. I might have met someone
dated, married. I would have, possibly… a church home, a support group, and lived to a ripe old age.

Could it be that people are jealous of senior citizens, do not want them to
do things like this. I looked, and would look years younger if I could get some weight off. I cannot. I feel too terrible. My skin was not sagging much at all before I gained this weight. I still have the most beautiful dress I ever had,and did not get to wear. my all occasion dress. I am a SENIOR citizen.
We do not need to go die to get rid of us. As I was leaving work one day, an older female who looked like a relative who despises me, told me I could be a prison guard when I was really old. Why would I want to be a prison guard? I would rather be dead. I couldn’t do it. I am talking of literal prison. There is another lady here who looks remarkably like that woman. She has problems similar to the one who said that to me. This is extrme abuse. I don’t care, it is abuse with
reckless disregard for my mental and physical health, stalking, harassing.
with intent to harm. It is also a money laundering attempt, to get money to the one who looks like the one who made the prison remark originally. Yes. That is the M.O. I have cause to sue, they do stuff like that, the one slandered gets the pay off. The slandered one who nearly destroyed my life over and over. I do not think it is coincidence. It is hatred. Viciousness.
I have to experience what she did. Like I have had a charmed life. Every problem in my life came out of psychotic delusions spun about someone’s fantasies about an old country doctor who did not give me a second look.
I was not interested in him either. That is the psychosis forced onto my life all my life. I am not the one needing the antipsychotics.

I know the answer, the answer is yes. People , enemies, do hate people this much. They do these things to people deliberately. Deliberately.Your blood would curdle if I told you the hateful, spiteful, mean things done to me. I am supposed to, as a Christian, forget and forgive.
With much enjoyment and spite, take job, career, money, ruin credit,
get rid of property, railroad, run out of town, . Watch it. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket…so to speak.. have a plan and a back up plan.

I want to forgive. I cannot. This is the last straw. Last straw also is that
if I had money, no one would give me lessons probably, would say that
it “might:” harm me. That would harm me less than anything. They do
not want to admit their hatefulness and spite. Delusions, psychotic delusions which have caused them to commit literal crimes against me.

I am also facing absessed teeth, in the few i have, I have many many cavities.
They think that is funny also. I am not supposed to feel sorry for myself and gripe because I am a Christian. It does not make Christianity look good for me to endure this done to me in silence. No one would want to be a Christian if we had to take this in silence. I have been wronged terribly, and they are laughing up their butts about it. Good old expression learned otj where I came from before here.

Candice asked:

I recently received a letter from the VA stating that I was overpayed, and I need to pay the funds immediately.

Some things you should know: I was taking classes full time and I was *forced* to drop two classes because I was involuntarily activated to go on an Annual Training with the Navy Reserves.
*I do know that when I signed up for the Navy Reserves I agreed to do 2 weeks a year of annual training but this specific annual training was not required of me in order for me to fulfill my obligated Annual training as per my contract.
*My professors at my institution are NOT required to work with me and allow me to make up my assignments while I’m gone. They were only obligated by institution rules that my absences were to be excused. This is a common misconception with individuals who think that the university is obligated to allow veterans who deploy to make up all their work when they return. This is specifically up to the professor. And in my case, my professor was not willing to work with me.
*At NO time did I mislead the VA or lie about the adjustment in credit hours. From the second I knew that I was going to drop both classes I contacted VA immediately and informed them (I have documentation to prove this.)
*At no time did these so called ‘extra funds’ benefit me financially in any way. Even though I received extra money for tuition it wasn’t enough money for me to go out and buy a Jaguar. So essentially, the extra money didn’t do me all that good.
*I do not work because of the track I am taking. I do however, work for the military part time when I can. I do honor guard funerals for military veterans that have recently passed away and earn partial drill pay. I have a great academic standing with my institution and bring home outstanding grades.

Right now I do not know how much I owe the VA, but I am going to guess it’s over or around 2,000.00. So my question is: Do I have the ability to file an appeal where I do not have to repay the VA because of my specific circumstances. OR Can I establish a repayment program that is minimal in nature so that it will not put me through extreme financial hardships.

Thank you for your help.

Dear Diary,
Even though we did not get a lot of food today, I still enjoyed having it. To me getting a bit of food to munch on is better than nothing, especially with all the work that is expected of us. For meals we are usually only given a minuscule amount of corn meal and maybe some pork if we were lucky. We don’t eat inside the master’s house, but instead, in our own shacks. Our master allows us to keep our own gardens that we tend to in our leisure time, which is only on Sundays. We grow just vegetables in there; our master calls it a truck patch. Sometimes he gives us a chance to go fish or hunt for small animals. Whatever we find, we are allowed to keep for ourselves as food. August 1st, marks the beginning of the harvest season, which is the worst time of the year for slaves. Tomorrow is the start of what will be weeks of pure torture. During the harvest season we must work at least 18 hours a day Monday through Saturday. We get up before the sunrise and go to bed at midnight. Also rather than getting Sunday off like we used to, we would have to work 9 hours on that day. Furthermore, the master gets more strict and requires us to pick more cotton, so he could earn more money. As I am eating in my shack, I glance over and see a slave coming from my master’s beautiful house. Her long, dark hair cascaded down her back, unlike mine. She was a wearing a lovely lime-green gown that flowed in the wind as she was led by her master into the wagon. I assumed that she was going with him to run an errand. It is unusual for me to see a house slave outside. They usually stay indoors and are kept away from us field slave. I envy those slaves who work in the house. They get the chance to live in a spacious home and are given old clothes from the master’s family that are absolutely gorgeous. In addition, they get much better food than us such as the leftover from the master’s meal. I’m not exactly sure what their duties are, but I would give anything to become a house slave.

Cauliflower_Power asked:

Recently my mother has become very hard to deal with. I am 16, so I’ll try explain my situation properly, and if you think I’m just being a hormonal teenager, then just say, I want to know your honest thoughts.

My mother is a solo mother, and has a pretty reasonable job, enough to support our family anyway, and there’s just me, as my older sister is in university (which my mum is not paying for).

So recently things have happened, the most recent I can think of, is today, as our school year has just started, I asked her for money to buy the textbooks. She said no, she didn’t have much (about $100 for the textbooks) and that I’d have to buy them with my own money (Which I earn through my job), and that she’d pay me back later. So I bought my books, and when I came home, I found a new pair of shoes she’d just purchased. That left me very mad, but was nothing compared to what happened later.

So I like to save most of my money to buy things, last time I bought myself a laptop, and at the moment I;m saving to go overseas to China for a month, like I did last year. So she came into my room (okay cue hormonal teenager: While I was having a rare phone conversation with one of my good friends from Norway) and requested $600 for an impulse buy of a laptop she’d previously made (She doesn’t even know how to use a computer). She kept pressuring me, so I put the money in her bank account, and though she promised to pay me back I later erupted at her.

I said things along the lines of, it wasn’t up to me to be there for her to fall back on financially, especially when she could easily be managing her money better. Her latest buy was to a $300 belly dancing course. I said it was ridiculous that I was the one who was able to save and manage money, but she was the one who needed too.

I mean I’m sorry, but I think borrowing $600 from your child is just going over the top, was I wrong to scream at her for not being able to manage her money the way she should?
All my money is money I earn from my job, even though she receives a lot of child support from my dad.
