Everyone should stop posting how much money they have now. It's really annoying and no one cares.

all you people talking about mommy and daddy paying for everything um lets see i am 18 working as a bagger i just got back after 3 months off because i was in a car accident i didnt get paid for disability i work 12 hours a week at a little more than minimum wage i pay rent and bills and for my college and books and lets see I STILL HAVE MONEY i know how to save oh and i also go out and do things and have fun all you people saying its not that easy hmm lets see yes it is you guys are just stupid

Everyone has said what needs to be said, for the most part. You know what needs to be done so keep your head up. It's time for you to get serious, so I would suggest setting a goal for yourself and I wish you the best with that!

You need better planning on your funds. I do a stock purchase plan with my current company at 20% of my paycheck. When I buy it I get a %15 discount on it. No matter what I really can't lose money unless my company goes under. I also put 6% (4.25% - company match) of my paycheck into my 401k. Don't need to do as much as I do, but it helps!

103 how much do u pay in rent? And who do you live with?

I'm asking because... Let's say u make $10 an hour(above min wage). You work 12 hours a week. That's $120 a week and 480 a month and that's without taxes (maybe even without medical benefits taken out). 480 (being generous) is not enough for all the bills u listed. Unless you live with mommy and daddy and get a deal like 100-200 a month for being a student, or you live in a 1 bd rm apartment with. 19 other people. Plus all the utilities. So either your getting some sort of other income coming, your not actually living in normal living conditions, or your full of shit. Either way how bout you go out into the real world and get a clue

Not going to say get a job since you probably already have one. But you do obviously have internet access which normally costs $40-$50 a month. If you are this broke, consider canceling your internet and saving that money. After all food, water, and shelter are more important than chatting with your friends online and posting FML stories.

hey! look on the bright side. that's 69 gum balls.

I agree with some of the other posters saying maybe he does have a job. Times are tough, and many of my friends are laid off and can't find work anywhere. When you have to pay bills and don't have an awesome secure job, saving ain't so easy. Take a look from another perspective every once in awhile.

And you didnt realize this before when you were dirt broke? If you're broke because you're lazy and refuse to get a job then YDI but if you're low on cash because of the terrible economy or personal problems, then I'm very sorry and yes indeed your life is f***ed.
