Money Problems

When it comes to financial matters, I always come up with the best solution. But today, the table has turned and I’m currently squeezing what’s left. Who would have thought that I’d put myself in this situation? I didn’t. To be honest, life’s a bitch sometimes. Unexpected things happen just when I think I’m already at the top of my game. Poor me.

Oh yes. I have consulted my friends and family but I still believe that I can do something; some miracle perhaps. I don’t want to suffer the consequences of my actions without a fight—I never have. That would be the ultimate mistake.

My thoughts are scrambled and unorganized right now but I’m staying sharp because I have only myself to rely on this time. With the accessible finances I have left, I’m thinking about making priorities. Since there is no solution that could increase the amount, I will slash off the things I don’t really need. This always works; but the grand scheme of this has yet to surface so I will be ready when that happens.

The really big problem is I cannot afford to sacrifice what I have worked hard for. My stingy uncle once said to me, “Live not a life of material things, instead save”. I’m not so sure if that makes sense but he does have a point one way or another. I just need some advice to enlighten me with this mess I’m in. Money problems are difficult to handle especially when I never had one before. Clearly, this crisis is bringing me down and I don’t think no one is capable of avoiding this matter without a fight. Even highly respected businessmen count their finances to the cent and that reflects how much they value it. So in cases of loss, they will be able to manage it better.

Seeing how things are going for me and how I am so affected by this situation makes me want to rethink a lot of things in my life. But one thing is for sure, my friends and family will be there no matter what. I just have to stand on my own two feet for the mean time.
