Had to give my car to trustee

[shabam]

Peppy,

You should be proud you paid off your car, that is quite an accomplishment. If you did it once you can do it with the next car you buy. In the mean time check around to see if you can get a beater car. This will suffice and help you through your anguish for a little while until you get back on your feet and experience the relief of BK. I would also check with Volunteers of America and see if maybe you can qualify for a car from them if you can not afford one.

I donated one of my beater cars to them when the transmission started slipping. I figured they had mechanics that could fix it and would be a good car for someone struggling.

Additionally,
If you are able to get help and buy another car you can always donate the car back to Volunteers of America. Good luck and keep posting if you start feeling down. People will be here to support you.

Sure is. And if she did it once she can do it again.

Cars are a waste of money anyway. I have gone through enough to know.. People just need a decent reliable safe car.

To Debtmonster,

Do you have prescription insurance? If not, this may help:

The income levels are very generous and the application process is so simple, they don't verify anything or call your job, so no worries that you will be embarrassed if co workers found out. It is essentially a discount card, but it's through the state of Florida and costs nothing, except a $15 fee the first time you use it. I don't have prescription coverage and I save about 60% off of pharmacy retail.

Also, Walmart and Target have many common prescriptions available for $4 for a 30 day supply. Their $4 drug list is pretty basic though.

Thanks for the tip. I need Advair and Nexium every month. Both of these are super expensive, even with this discount card thing.

I wish I could get the Nexium down to $20/mo. and Advair down to $30.

I was taking Prilosec for almost 8 years. Then I got an ulcer which is caused all of the problem with me going to the hospital and getting $40,000 worth of medical bills. The Nexium is the only thing that fixed it.

o $30,636 (for an individual)
o $41,076 (for a family of two)
o $61,956 (for a family of four)

We're almost $20,000 over the allowed amount for the discount card. $60-70k in this country is now poverty level. Who are these people kidding?

What sucks is that the gross money I get deposited is NOT MY MONEY. I have BUSINESS EXPENSES and high taxes which makes my net NOTHING, but the CH. 7 people don't seem to look at it that way.
