I need someone who knows what they are talking about to give
me some financial advice. I am a senior citizen and everything has went to hell in a handbasket. I am not very
well and the stress is more than I can handle. I cannot do
this anymore. I don't need people to look at me like an
idiot because I am in such a mess. It was a whole long list
of things many of which I had no control over. I have many
unusual situations and problems that I need help with. We
should have declared bankruptcy years ago and we could have
straightened this mess out by now but we didn't and now I'm
not sure if it would be the best thing to do for a number of
reasons. But something has to change. Can anyone help me?
I can't afford a financial advisor and I don't know one
that would deal with a mess like this. Where can I go?
Get it all in perspective you obviously need professional advice since you can't tell us what the worst is of this mess your in.
I lost everything. First my ex drug me through bankruptcy then when I got some charge cards things went out of my control, I let my charge cards go and they didn't even come after me. I didn't choose to do this and it almost killed me. I was an outstanding citizen and was so full of pride for my wonderful credit score and on and on.
There must be someone you trust a preacher...someone that you admire their money skills that could give you advice. But until you do. Remember you still have your treasures, your family. I lost my house, my job,my marriage, my car, and was ruining my health. I'm not young I was married over 24 years when this all happened. He hid and stole all our assets in the divorce and left me in a paper box. It helps to remember whether those numbers in your check book are black or red don't let that steal the joy of the things that are most important. If you lose that credit and can't buy anything ever again...let it be. Just remember to prioritize. I had to. A roof over my head came first. It comes down to survival and what it takes. It took a lot to get to this attitude. I stressed over fluff and when it was all gone it was ok. I'm happier today than I ever was and still can't afford a cable connection to the t.v. Good luck I just hope you can get to where you can sleep at night. Prioritize.
