https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/comments/6pa6ul/ex_boyfriend_drained_our_mutual_account_the_day/Ex boyfriend drained our mutual account the day we broke up. I was financially dependent on him for the past 2 years due to illness, and he's left me with nothing with less than a day's notice. posted:I have about $30 in cash to my name. I've called some charities that are willing to help me with bills, but I have after that $30 is gone, it's gone. I don't know how to pay for things like gas, phone, etc. I do have food, fortunately, and I'm applying for food stamps today. I don't know how to get through this month. Currently I am waiting for my disability application to be processed, but that takes time. How do I pull myself out of this mess? Thank you all

it's really hard for me to judge people with any sort of long-term or chronic illness in the US we are a supremely hosed up nation in that regard, even well-off individuals are a single semi-serious illness or catastrophe away from becoming a dirty poor

Starting now is going to take forever if she's really disabled.

Nobody in my personal or professional life has made any new BWM stories for me (although, I went to visit my Aunt and Uncle that had a 10k+ home air filtration system installed to filter out chemtrails and they have a shelf labelled "Colloidals" in their bathroom that has about 20 tubes of Colloidal Silver Cream and Colloidal Oatmeal). /r/personalfinance just needs a bot that autoposts "DO NOT COSIGN OR TAKE OUT A CREDIT CARD FOR YOUR UNEMPLOYED FAMILY" on every post. quote:Loan/credit card I'd take out in my name for my brother: what should I know? Also, a title only post. quote:When calculating your net worth, do you factor in costs of terminating contacts (satellite, cable, leases etc) as a liability?

I'd believe it only because my parents took out credit cards in my name, maxed them out, then moved to Texas. This was after I politely refused their request to borrow money for maybe the dozenth time before I turned 20. I never brought home some black people to intentionally piss them off though, I loving wish I would have thought of that. bwm: your lovely parents probably know your ssn

You got any datasets that start before 2008 on that one, it's kinda a suspicious place to cut the chart off... e: Also the social security administration shows a decrease in disability payments over the same period, though that could be more people being denied rather than less people applying e2: No applications also decreased during that period too, peaking in 2009/2010 and going down since: https://www.ssa.gov/oact/STATS/dibStat.html Shame Boy fucked around with this message at 22:23 on Jul 24, 2017 |

Honestly though, if I could buy a fully automated washer -> dryer -> folder combo that just meant that I dumped poo poo in the washer and pulled out a folded stack of clean dry clothes I would pay several thousand dollars for it. Assuming it's reliable and fully automated, I don't care if it takes 12 hours. But that's not it.
