Let's talk money... do you consider yourself "financially stable"?

have you ever overdrafted? if you have what's the most? are you in any sort of debt?

today I went from on the edge to over the edge. I literally have no money right now. None, and i've never felt this way before. I feel lost and like.. poor actually. I need to work my way back on to the edge and hopefully farther away from the edge.

I'm not asking you to share how much money you have. Only share how you feel if you feel comfortable with people knowing your "situation". Some people do take this information very personal.

Very stable...for now lol

Although I'm now working, I still don't consider myself stable since my dad still sends me money.

I have only overdrafted a few times. I don't have any debt, but I'm far from being rich. I live paycheck to paycheck, I just do my best to not live outside my means.double_decker

Yeah, I worked and saved up money. I live at home while I am at Registered Nursing school to save money for when I graduate and pass my nclex. I have over drafted but thats out of stupidity. When I have money in savings and just lost track of how much was in my spending account.

I'm still living at home, so I'm still financially stable, and I intend to keep it that way.

I lost my job of 4 years because I was incarcerated for 3 months. While I was in jail, my ex drained my bank account so I have absolutely no money or income. I'm fairly upbeat about it because anything is better than being in jail.

Very smart...you are one of the few...you should be proudrawsavon

Well I'm 19 and in school, but my parents are definitely secure.

Same here...been on my own since I was 18 and bought everything. But several times through school = lots of student loans + needed a new (used) car.rawsavon

Well so far I have a student loan, and my parents, with the help of my aunt, and funding my tuition for college for now.

Why don't you date? -just curious, don't have to share if you don't want to.rawsavon

Hmm. very different answer than I was expecting. Very well thought out, mature, and insightful answer. Hmm As long as you leave yourself open to the possibility of dating and as long as you are happy, that is all that counts. The pastor of my church once brought up the gift if singleness (which was new to me). But the more I thought about what he said, the convinced I have become that I was part of the intended audience of that message.rawsavon

Extremely stable. I have zero dollars today, and will have zero dollars tomorrow, and zero dollars next week.

As long as my mommy and step-dad are living--then i'm in great financial shape for now.

We share similar views (especially the alcohol part)...my POV is just a little more jaded.

On one hand, I am very easy to date (not jealous at all, want girls to sepnd time away, want you to do whatever you want to do)
But most girls end up not liking these qualities (especially because I expect them in return)
Also, I am happy spending most of my time alone.

I always tell girls "I am the coolest person you will grow to hate"

I guess I could call myself finacially stable. 22 in school with student loans. Just put down first months rent for when I move out into my apartment on oct 1st. In another week, ill have enough to make an advancement for Nov and so on with a little knowledge of what I can spend and save.

Exactly...why is that not a great catch.

Our only difference is that I am very sexual...but monogamously sexual
Other than that all the same.

Girls like it...at first.

Once again, you would think that most girls would like it that way.
Girls can be very...hmm... difficult sometimes.

Sorry to hear about all that though.
I don't know how I would react to being cheated on.
Part of me thinks it would not bother me that much, just because I know how people are...but that is easy to say till it happens

Home and student loans... that's it. Got a bit of savings so if I go jobless I should be able to provide for my wife and I for around a year. Hope it doesn't come down to that though.

i'm poor

I'm not in debt, but I'm unemployed, living with my parents and going to university. As soon as I get a job, I'm out.

No, I agree
If the other guy doesn't know about me, why would I be mad at him.
If he does know about me, that is just disrespectful.
But regardless, she is the one that cheated. The guy just took advantage of the situation.

But seriously dude, that sucks...that many times.
I think I would just start...I don't know...can't hit girls, but damn

I'm in college right now, and yeah, my parents are doing fairly well. we're stable

I have no debt and I have three months' pay stored up in my savings account, so yeah, I suppose you could call me that. :P

Great Attitude to have...can only hope that I would be able to do the same in your shoes.

Great, unexpected conversation tonight BTW.
I just came on to pass time during Monday Night Football.

Catch you around the OT

I never have to work again if I don't want to, but not doing so means I'm limited to what I can spend. I'm not working right now, but I may change my mind if the economy ever picks back up. But I want to get out of I.T. because I've been there and done that. Just not sure what else I want to do right now.
