Paid my property taxes today, now I only have $253.84 that has to last me a week!

I sure could use that “Stimilus” package.

Anyone else almost BROKE?

I owe the IRS 1200.00 also. That will just have to wait…

I see it’s been a while since this was discussed, but I just wanted to ask—has anyone noticed any new patterns or changes in this since then? A lot has happened over the past few years, and I wonder if anything recent has shifted perspectives or confirmed any thoughts shared here. Curious to hear if anyone has had new experiences or insights related to this.

Oh man, I feel this. A few years back, I got hit with an unexpected car repair right when rent was due—timing couldn’t have been worse. Ended up stretching groceries for two weeks, eating a lot of rice and eggs. What really stung was I had just booked a trip through vat travel agents for a work thing, thinking my finances were stable. Joke was on me! Had to call and beg them to push back my payment. Thankfully, they worked with me, but I was sweating bullets. IRS debt on top of that? Oof.
