CountFrylock Posted October 8 Author Posted October 8 Wasn’t able to pay the property tax by its deadline so now we gotta $1000 a month for four months to cover that… this sucks Quote
PhilosipherStoned Posted October 10 Posted October 10 I've been wondering how that's going to feel once my mortgage is paid to have to fork out a property tax payment in full every year myself, but in theory I guess it shouldn't be that bad with any amount of budgeting. Just setting aside like a quater of what my current mortgage payment is I should be able to have enough at the end of the year to cover it. Right now it's all factored into my mortgage payment with escrow. Which is pretty frustrating on it's own to me because it means every year my mortgage payments go up almost $50 dollars monthly due to an escrow shortage.... Quote
Noob Posted October 11 Posted October 11 If you aren't on Disability, consider applying to Amazon/UPS/FedEx. They hire a lot of people (anyone with a pulse) to work in their warehouses starting around now through Christmas and may keep you on longer/permanently. They should pay at least close to $20/HR and often make overtime mandatory. You could easily earn over $4,000 in just two months as long as you show up to work every day and try your best. I promise, once you are in the door they will find something for you to do. If you can drive, Amazon may even hire you to drive around and do delivery. I know you're autistic but lots of autistic people work in warehouse jobs. It might sound scary or overwhelming if you haven't worked in a long time or ever, but I believe these jobs are something almost any person can do for at least a couple of months. I've given you money before but I don't have any money right now and anyway it isn't a long-term solution, and you know that. Message me if you have any questions about where & how to apply to any of these companies and I'll do my best to try to help you navigate that process and point you in the right direction. 1 Quote
CountFrylock Posted Thursday at 12:51 AM Author Posted Thursday at 12:51 AM We are on disability and get $2K per month the problem is utility bills quickly eat through that and that includes paying for our phones Had to pay a friend $800 to keep things going(not just for us but his whole family because he’s having money troubles himself and has been trying to move down here to escape the crazy cost of living at his previous home) said he’s gonna get everybody on a much cheaper phone plan so we can all save some money Which I really think is a good idea because there’s no way we can keep paying that alongside our other bills and food not without my mom selling more stuff and I think she’s just about exhausted her options there so we probably wouldn’t get much Which sucks cause she had to pawn off beloved guitars and she needs money we likely cannot come up with to buy them back Quote

I can’t drive so my options are really limited I’d have to either work from home or uber to work that second option probably would eat up too mush money over time though biggest problem is leaving my disabled mother alone for extended periods of time everyday doesn’t seem like a good idea I’d need somebody volunteering to keep an eye on her while I’m working and nobody I know has that much free time Edited 1 hour ago by CountFrylock Quote

Requirements probably are strict but these are desperate times. you’re preaching to the choir. 2500 times a night I yell at my tv because my rep lies her ass off talking about programs aren’t going to be cut, ten seconds before they get cut off.

CountFrylock Posted 43 minutes ago Author Posted 43 minutes ago To think this wouldn’t be as stupid If our friend had not forgotten to help sort out the property tax issue like he said he would instead he didn’t and we still gotta pay him monthly to keep our phones on So we keep bailing him out all the time which gives us less money for ourselves because otherwise we have no phones and then we’d be screwed Quote
