And another happiness disabler... I'm in deep debt, and to fix that I transfered money from my savings account. Which is now almost empty. Let's put it like this. I can't buy an AOS starter box with the money I have in my savings account. Even if I wanted to.
I need money fast. I'm thinking of either selling all my bitz or my mtg collections. Which should I do? Tips? Tricks not to stay poor?

Buy some more money. Eat oatmeal and rice every day.

Seriously though, eat cheap and cut off everything that generates bills(except internet and electricity). No nights out, get rid of your credit cards, take out cash instead of using your debit card, only shop for groceries once a week or twice a month.
I agree with the inhumane treatment of animals.

Might have to move to cheaper accommodation.

Selling some stuff probably isn't a bad option if you have things packed away you never use or think about.

Well, then you've got to do as Patsy said, stop all outgoings that don't pay your debt or keep you alive. No minis, games, booze - nothing. Food/bills/transport to and from work only. Not much else to be said really. If you reduce your outgoings to those levels and are still unable to meet your debts, you might have to move back to your parents and live for free, and if you can't do that, then either get another job or look into bankruptcy.

Guys at work have had some massive debt before and just had to do the above until it was sorted. One found out his wife had two secret credit cards she was using to pay off debts her moron brother had racked up... to the tune of $70k. That's taken three years of austerity to sort out.

Clearly the moronic runs strong in that family! (using credit cards to pay off debts, really....)

Her family are a pack of losers. She's quite successful, the only person in her family earning a decent living. She thought because she made enough that she could cover the cards with her bonus (that my colleague didn't know about either) but when her boss sold the business the new boss stopped doing the bonus, and things went out of control fast.

Yesterday I've broke up with my girlfriend. We were together for over a year, but she thinks that we should remain friends only. It's my third one in 5 years...

So not a playboy.
So you give a relationship a chance to develop.
So you still haven't found the right one.
Sounds ok to me.

No, I'm definetly not a playboy type. I honestly wanted for that relationship to work out but am still happy to have her as a friend. No ill feelings are between us, unlike the last one. That was an effin' disaster.

Sorry to hear that.  :unsure:

I hope you find your perfect match someday. :-)

You know, I once read a book about the early pilgrims that this post just brought back to my mind. A man was caught having intercourse with his cow, horse, chicken, dog, sheep, goat and turkey. The villagers lined up the animals and killed each one in front of the freak and then hanged him.

In short, people are messed up and it's a waste of space and money to let the extremely messed up ones live.(imo)

Many's a man has had to make a quick coin down the quay at Marienburg. There is no shame in it, Syphon. I know a man, who knows a man who can get you set up. Pop into the Salty Sailor at midnight, on the morrow'. Ask for a seaman by the name of 'Lilly'.

My only serious advice is don't be one of these guys who buys money at high rates of pay back, the likes of 'Wonga' in the UK as an example. You will end up way worse off. As the above posters have said, beans on toast for a month.

Not quite sure, if Syphon is prepared to look for back-alley work yet. Not everyone is suited for a career as a rentboy.

Hah. Not that kind of man, sorry. I can translate for you in 4 languages, though. A few more of you count rudimentary language skills too.
I can even read and speak a couple of dead languages. Trust me, when you travel through time you will need me.

why dont you get a job as a court interpreter then, that pays really well and they are always looking for translators.

Work hard and be nice to people, thats the key.

Or airports. My family works many different jobs at various airports and their always looking for translators for one department or another. Out of curiosity what languages?

Also in regards to the above back alley sailor discussion, someone needs to congratulate you on having a good tongue.

Having recently returned from Vienna, where I became horribly addicted to Topfenstrudel (mitt vanillesauce), I have only just realised it is not available anywhere in Northern Ireland. I am, at this point, utterly devastated beyond words.

Ah, Austrians and their desserts. Great stuff.

I think that would be difficult. However, if Alexis' baking skills match his painting skills...

Depends on the job, really. For instance, Trump is applying for a job too....
