Unexpected Life Hurdle
Donation protected
Over the last three months, I have made huge strides towards my independence. I got an amazing full time job, a car that is not only in my name but gets great gas milage, and I just signed a lease on a new condo as of yesterday! I've got it all figured out... or so I thought.
Like I said, I signed my lease yesterday and I owe my first month's rent and deposit by Monday. I had everything calculated to the dollar and I was ready to put my deposit down with my check today. Unfortunately, my first payment for my new benefits was taken out this paycheck.
I'm short. By a lot.
I'm crying. I don't know what to do. I have $730 dollars to last me until the 5th. That's not enough for the deposit, let along the first month's rent and living expenses. I feel so dumb for not preparing better but I really thought I had everything figured out.
I hate asking for help.
I know we all hate asking for help.
But, here I am, asking for help.
I've seen you guys do some amazing things, I'm hoping you can help me accomplish this, too.
