Getting back on my feet..
Hi.. my name is Steve Mahaney... I live in NJ, and I'm a Chef... I've been cooking since I was an adolescent with my mother and grandmother... I'm passionate about what I do, and I'm very good at it, receiving accolades from customers and restaurant owners alike for my food... but I've had a very difficult 2017... I had a lucrative position as a Chef in NYC, but was laid off in mid-January... and since then I've worked in a variety of part-time, or temporary positions, trying to make ends meet.. I am now in a new position, partnering with a small restaurant owner in my town to build a new segment of his business, specializing in one of my loves.. Southern Cuisine and BBQ... and we are beginning to see the fruits of our labors...
However... 8 months of extremely low income has left me in a disastrous financial situation.. I've fallen behind in almost every area... I've maintained a place to live, but now, because I'm behind in all other debts and payments, and could lose my car to reposession. I have an extremely high interest rate on the car loan... a vestige of my divorce and an associated bankruptcy... I need to bring the account current soon in order to avoid the loan holder repossessing the car..
Once I bring the account current, then car dealers and their lenders can pay off this loan and put me in a car with a more affordable payment that I can manage...
I am a humble man, a self-sufficient man... and it really hurts me deeply to have to ask for help... but I'm against a wall right now... I need YOUR help to get over this debt hump.
Thank you for your consideration... please share with your friends.. and may God bless you.
