Hello everyone.

Feeling broke, broke, broke.

Had some inheritance money a few months ago but gone, gone, gone.

In a sea of credit card debt.

Anyone gone through bankruptcy recently, or been able to get out of debt??

Just curious.

Need a real job too.

I have had too much death around me last week.

My aunt Louise died at 62 ..... Her situation is tragic and she was relatively healthy except for cancer.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts.

I have something else I want to say.

2 years later she...

Wish me luck.

Do need to see Sin City sometime soon too )
