Today, I’m starting my 28th year with 28 cents on my bank account. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I realized that the closest thing I have to a savings account is the cup on my dresser with coins in it. I counted it, $17.34. That is my savings. I'm 28. FML
Waiting for that trickle down
Today, I looked at my bank balance. It read $1.23. That's higher than it usually is. FML
Today, I found out that my parents are 28,000 dollars in debt and that my bank account has $27.17 in it. They took my money to help pay their debt. FML
Today, in an attempt to support and encourage my efforts in getting a new job, my boyfriend said, "Imagine having triple what's in your bank account right now!" Triple what's in my bank account right now would be exactly $38.94. FML
Today, the government froze my bank account for not paying college debt, and now I can't access my 0.30 cents. FML
Meritocracy, amirite?
Today, I worked for 4 hours and made $28.00. I have $1500 of bills coming due soon. FML
Today, I told my mom I had 73 cents in my checking account. She gave me a penny and told me I had 74 cents and it was even now. Thanks mom. FML
Today, it was my birthday. I got ONE birthday greeting: from my bank, telling me they were closing my account. FML
Today, I'm so poor that I've been scrounging around my house all day trying to find quarters and dimes so that I can buy myself a cup of coffee tomorrow. FML
Today, I have -$700 in my current account, $500 from overdraft fees because I spent money they told me I had. I don't get paid till the 15th and when I cash in my paycheck all of it will go to bringing me even. So the $9 I found in my wallet this morning will have to last me untill the 30th. FML

I actually didn't laugh on this one. It's not funny. it's depressing. I'm truly sorry. Hopefully you'll run into some good fortune soon.

The correct word would be "you're" for the second two. Just so you know.

I understand where you're coming from. The economy is shit, so it's understandable. Plus, finding a job these days and actually being able to keep it before it crashes is a bit of a tough one too.

Your spending is probably too high and the economy sucks.

I laughed. But it was one of those laughs laced with sadness. I'm sorry, man. But things will get better. #12, it's not that easy. The unemployment rate is about 8% right now. Most businesses aren't hiring.

YDI for getting older and having to pay bills. U should have taken that seemingly unimportant hobo's advice to travel to nether-nether (never-never?) land.
