Rags to Riches? ‼️💲💶💸💰

Question

Hi 👋 ladies.
I need words of encouragement and advice.
 I guess what i am looking for are stories of motivation and hope. My 🚗 just got repo'd today and im giving up my apartment in January due to financial and other reasons. I'm not going to sugar coat my own stupidity and bad decisions. I somehow lost control of my self and my finances ive got a bad spending addiction or habit or what haves you. My husband had lost his job be begging of this year and 4 months after he got a job THANKS TO GOD and we started catching up on bills. But my car payments were so behind that i somehow lost track of payments to the point that i was over it because of the stress of being broke after each paycheck and i thought it
was a good idea to let the car go since it was becoming more of a burden then a blessing to me (so i thought) at the moment. We stopped paying the car and said we would buy another one cash. We had a plan and it blew up on our face because this month (December) because of weather related problems my job decided to shut down almost 2 weeks hubby was out of work because of snow stroms too (closed work) and our rent is due soon and other bills and we already had January as our last month at our apartment  can't do nothing now. And i woke up to my car being gone (it was the plan) but i was hoping i could pay it next month and start all over but they beat me to the punch and now im carless next month im apartmentless and im feeling defeated ☹️😢😔 i know everything will be ok but for now this is the situation.

Please someone tell me you've been through this before and are doing much better now!

Tell me your stories.

Thank you my heart needs this!

Answer

Well... Let's see. Hubby was sick nearly everyday this year; Doc can't figure it out. This pregnancy was difficult from the beginning. Car hasn't run since last year... Payments are due every two weeks... Squirrel are my wires. Dad is fronting the $2k on that baby. I won't have it back till at least January. This leaves my truck.. we don't all fit in it. Hubby was laid off in September. Unemployment barely helped (thank gods for Granny and Pepe on this). He got a new one just before Thanksgiving... Huge pay cut. Scheduled C-section on Dec 10...

Sorry said it best...Just keep swimming. One day at a time. You have your end goal..It's just getting to it that's difficult.

And btw.. that's just this year..Lol. taken me 8 years to get to even this "comfy" state.

Answer

U prob should have gotten the next car before letting the old one go. Or u should have hidden it. I was in a similar situation. It wasnt quite that dire, but now things are fine. It took me a year to get things back on track.

Answer

This isn't my story but my dad went from living in section 8 housing and on welfare to being a multi millionaire.

Answer

"Riches" rarely come without EXTREMELY hard work. If you and your husband can each get two jobs (maybe at least 1 from home, so you don't need a car) it'll be a good start!
