I don’t look down on anyone using credit cards to survive. Without those, a lot of people would go hungry or lose their place to live. I see it in my own family. I’ll be damned if I raise my nose in the air.
What some people fail to see is life is not easy for everyone. Serious things happen, nothing you would CHOOSE to have happen.
You do the best with what you have. You help those you can and be grateful to God for what you have. Whether that’s a little or a lot.
These are hard times. People all over this world are hurting. We need to lift each other up, not slap them down.
I wish the best for you and yours. For everyone here.
Thank you for your post. Some people on FR have no clue what MANY in the USA and around the world are dealing with. You are correct: a lot of people here in the States and all over the world ARE hurting through no fault of their own. Decent folks who have played by the rules all of their lives and done the right thing are finding themselves up against the wall and hard pressed. People here need to show some compassion.
