Awesome auction.
I'm hoping Frank can make it out of this situation.
Sadly, I know others within my own life who are also falling behind financially.
Living in a car would cut your bills, but now you don't have a mailing address to receive packages from.
I think USPS requires a prior physical address before allowing you to open a PO box.
I agree. everything is more expensive. if funds are getting short, then indeed there needs to be the goal of reducing costs and expenses. Try to stay away from credit and loans.
I am happy that my only loan is on my house (hope to eliminate that soon) and my 1 credit card is paid off every month.
I will starve and walk (vs driving) before I ring up more debt.
Debt and credit are very powerful tools.
By taking on debt at a low interest rate, suddenly you can finance an entire business operation for a whole year.
If you don't have much credit reputation or history this becomes super hard because everything you are doing is now debit only.
While guys out here are getting loans and moving 10x the speed of yourself, you are stuck with only the ability to use funds that you currently have.
Debt is a super-power, and it can be used to finance empires or finance their destruction.
Usury and interest are an entirely different problem.
