Times are Tough for Us All

Times are tough. You know that just by looking in the newspaper. There are no jobs to speak of and if you get lucky to fill out an application you have about ten people wanting the same job. How much fun is that? Times are tough will say again, and I have a goal set in mind that might help others get through this trying time we are having.

1. Spend time with your family. I know that you maybe upset about your job lose, and how you cant pay your bills, but if you don’t have family what do you have? They need you in more than one way.

2. There are small agencies that will help you pay for some bills. In my town we have places that will help you pay your light bill and or take you to your job. Bills piling up are the worst thing in the world. The last thing you need is your power to be cut off.

3. Go and apply for Food stamps that’s what it is there for.There is no shame of applying for food stamps. It will help you eat and keep your kids up. That would be another thing you don’t have to worry about. How nice would it be if you didn’t have to spend 125.00 at Walmart for food. That money can go some where else.

4. Go green and save your cans. Ok, if you are like me you might have a soda habit. Then you have the cans left over. What can you do with those? You can save them and turn them in at the local junk yard or where ever you can. Then you get some money back and you are helping out the environment.

With all of those I feel we can get through the tough times. It will be hard but I know as a country we can do it. Smile be happy and let yor creditors know whats going on. They will understand and they might be able to help you some as well. You never know unless you tell them..
