Trying To Save For An Apartment- Impossible.



I need to move and soon. The drive to and from work every day is about to kill me and my wallet. Since I am having to drive my mom’s car- mine still is not in running order, the gas I use is ridiculous. On average, I will spend $100 a week just to keep the car full. The money I am spending in gas could be used as a deposit on an apartment-which would solve the problem all together-moving closer to work. I’m trying to make money with PayPerPost as much as possible, but it seems the 600+ I have made to date only goes to bills. I’ve been having to transfer the funds into my mother’s checking account just to keep her afloat, she’s overdrawn, (I don’t get my first paycheck until Tuesday and I currently do not have a checking account of my own), so it seems as soon as I am paid through PayPal the money is gone. I had planned on using the money as a security deposit on an apartment, using the money from my paycheck as the first month’s rent. I was approved for a debit card through PayPal which will help greatly, once I can keep enough cash in the account to actually take out. I’ve had many of you say, “Find a job closer to home.”-easier said than done since jobs in this state are few and far between. This is why I choose to use PayPerPost- it has helped me pay bills and will hopefully, in the future, help me pay for an apartment. I try to post about things I believe you, as my reader, will be interested in, if me blogging for a little bit of cash bothers you, sorry. It does bring in extra money that is much needed and I will continue to use the service.

    Hey,
    Do not have to apologize for making money. I hope it works out, finding your own “pad”/place. Don’t give up, it will happen with time. :)

    Enjoy the rest of your day.

    Thanks Peety :)

    Fabeo: I’ve considered it- I have an uncle who lives in Palm Bay and an aunt in St. Pete. Too expensive to move though.

    Unlike many other sites I could mention, I don’t find your paid posting offensive. At the end of the day, it’s your site and as long as you keep your readership you should do what you feel with it.

    Good luck getting something sorted.
