    Help, I have a really big problem
    Honestly I hate to admit something like this but I am in a huge financial mess. I was laid off from work and have been told I am not eligible for unemployment benefits. I have a suspended license and literally 7 dollars to my name. The job market is an embarrassment to humankind and my wife and I along with our 3 year old daughter are on the verge of being thrown into the street.

    If anyone has any suggestions or possible way they could help me out I am all ears. Any sportsbooks giving out free cash? A loan possibly? Job? Ideas to make money? This is a very desperate situation and I don't know what to do nor who to turn to. It is easy to admit this to a bunch of strangers on the internet. I hope you can all understand and not ridicule me, thats the last thing I need right now. Thanks and God Bless!

    You might have to settle for a shitty job, or 2 or 3 of them. You gotta feed those kids.

      Brutal. There are always jobs out there, they're just not ones people generally want to do. Might have to swallow your pride and start scouting out the fast food establishments. What was your previous job? Highest level of schooling completed?

            There are tons of ways to make money online. You won't get rich, but that's what I've started doing until I find my next full-time gig.

            www.chacha.com are still looking for people to answer questions that come in via text last I checked. The pay is not good but at least it's something.

            typists.quicktate.com I just got hired on there the other day to transcribe voicemails into text. Haven't actually started yet, and again the pay is probably going to be slightly less than minimum wage, but it's pay anyway.

            There are lots more opportunities like this.

            I can't stress enough othat these jobs are not high-paying. If you're accustomed to making $25/hour these jobs are going to be a shock to the system, but both I listed let you work whenever you want, and should at least give you a few extra bucks to get by.

            Hope that helps.

                      My first question would be if you were laid off, why are you not eligible for benfits?

                                Are you serious?! you have little children to feed you ****. You remind me of my uncle that gambled his life away at online casinos and sportsbooks and my family had to bail him out a few times. That little **** refused to humble down and thought he was too smart/good looking/honorable to go work for $8/hour. He kisses me on the forehead today whenever I come to his house and do him a little "no gambling" talk.

                                Isn't your love to your child strong enough to get you off your ass, give up your ego, and bring some food home?
                                Are you ever serious? do you promote creditwagering?

                                Wait, this isn't worth it.

                                                If the OP is serious yeah I would suggest taking any job you can find. Who cares if it's fast food, getting back to work will buy you some time while you figure things out. Got any relatives that can give you a hand? If you have a good relationship with them and they know you're a hard worker I'd imagine they would be more than happy to help. Good luck buddy, hope it works out for you.

                                                    Your kids come FIRST. Bend over backwards (maybe literally) to make sure she is fed. Put her with some relatives (if possible) while you twirl signs, flip burgers, or whatever else. And remember, if gambling got you into this mess, it's not going to get you out.

                                                              wow...I can understand coming in here asking for suggestions.

                                                              But as soon as you asked if any sportsbooks are giving away free money. YOU SIR ARE A DEADBEAT.

                                                              Your wife must feel really lucky she ended up with you.

                                                              Gambling should be the last thing on your mind.
