[quote:Anonymous Coward 7777 82532047:MV81MjAwNjY0Xzk1NjczMzgzX0VDOTVFNDY=] [quote:Anonymous Coward 80069700:MV81MjAwNjY0Xzk1NjU0Mzg4XzdFMENFQzE3] OP, not trying to bust your balls. But next time build up a CASH emergency fund of $500-1000 and forget about it. China laughs at us everyday because they know 90% of Americans can't come up with $500. [/quote] Sometimes, life creates situations that go beyond our control. For example....medical bills, job layoffs, divorce, death in family & funeral expenses, what we watched happen to people in 2020 with these ridiculous lockdowns, etc. Our immediately family (now in Heaven) have always helped each other. Americans base just about everything on money, money, money. If you're not stocked up, paid up, have a fine home paid for or plenty in the bank, it's as though you're a failure. That is not true. In this life, as the Bible says, we will have trials and tribulations, no matter how hard we try or how much we prepare. The OP did the best she could. She financed her son's education. That is beautiful. I am so glad that he could help her. That's called family. [/quote]
