Family fun

[sadako1]

Urgh, not been around for a long time - moved into a friend's house with limited internet. Wife and son are here now which is great, but working lots so not seeing as much of them as I'd like. House hunting, which has had to be postponed due to seriously limited cash. Paying for all this family stuff on only 3/4 of my wage has killed me (treats for Sean, maternity wear for Becky and things for the baby)! Cards and overdraft maxed out, bills unpaid... please tell me this family stuff gets better?!

Oh, and I've seriously missed my LN fix! You guys have become pretty decent friends. Thanks for that!

Hope you find a place and get settled soon.

better or worse? i can tell you it just gets different :)
fwiw i have a chunk of solid financial advice...
you take whatever liquid money you can get your hands on, beg borrow or steal.
then open a CD with the money and you can borrow up to 80% of it as cash to use as you like and you only need to pay yourself back. when its all paid off in a few years you still have the original cash in the bank to either do it again or whatever.
alot of people dont know about this legal procedure that has helped me out greatly in the past.

since you are only paying yourself back, the bank only wants the interest on the loan, the principal is up to you how much you can afford.

with all my debts we pretty much live hand to mouth for the past 15 years or so but the small nest egg <15000$ we inherited when my mom-in-law gave in to leukemia helped us out. we borrowed 10k from the CD and consolidated like 6 credit cards with it. and the repayments are only like 220/mo
if someone out there wants to give me $518,000 so i can be debt free tomorrow ill let you f* my sister! (full metal jacket reference) j/k! (am i?)

seriously though its exciting and scary to start a new life in a new place, i wish you nothing but the best on your new start.

It should get better.

At least you have a roof over your head!! You certainly have more than what some people have :)

I'm moving my whole life around myself right now so good luck sorting it all out and hopefully you can get back to some sort of normality again soon :)
