Thanks for the support guys, and you know who you are
Purple - as stated, you know nothing of my situation, and I just tried to state a few basic facts. No need for advice, tyvm. The solution to every problem is not "Get A Loan!
" . Loans need to be repaid. Didn't this leveraging out & borrowing in the U.S. get us in trouble in the first place? Or howz about "further your education
". There are plenty of educated people out there right now not able to find jobs at the moment. I didn't ask you for a solution. Nothing is cut & dry or as easy as it apparently seems to be for you. My husband & I have worked hard for many years to be independent, have our own business, buy our own home, raise our child. But this economic downturn really hurts for many people. Apparently you just can't fathom that. I don't have mommy & daddy to call for financial help. They have their own issues, especially health, as VP, for one, can attest to (we've shared info on our ailing maternal units).
Just had to get that out. Sorry yolland for derailing. That will be the last of it from me in here.
