What Do I Do?

[abbeylee90]

I'm really struggling financially and don't get paid till next Friday. How do I get money?

[lankeela]

Did you agree to her booking it?  

[abbeylee90]

I thought brunch you pay on day 

[abbeylee90]

Yes coz I thought you pay on day I would be ok then 

[bednobs]

well then all is not lost - if it hasnt already happened, tell her you can't go

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, I don't think you have been totally honest with your mum. You wouldn't tell her when the care home cut your hours from 30 to nine, you lied about the reason for starting the HB job, you didn't tell her that the cleaning firm felt you weren't up to cleaning... You obviously didn't tell her that your spending and your income weren't a good match -  and now you're in a real mess financially. Even if your mum helps out financially this week, you're not going to be much better off next week and the week after and the week after.

[bednobs]

your question is "how do i get money"

the 2 ways of being richer are 1) work harder and 2)cut down spending.

As you dont appear to be capable of doing the first, you should do the second.

How much is a bottomless brunch?  

[abbeylee90]

£41.

She said manager my money more and I shouldn't be broke as don't go anywhere. 

 

[Redhelen72]

Who said that?

[bednobs]

you go out about 60x more than me!

[MargoTester]

Bottomless brunch is £41 !

[abbeylee90]

My mum and this is why I didn't want to tell her 

[Redhelen72]

You thought it was acceptable to spend 28% of your weekly income on morning out?

[Redhelen72]

Did you text her with this news?

 

[scorpiojo]

But you do go out, Abbey, and pay for your nails/tans/clothes/takeaways.

[abbeylee90]

I said well I go out more recently.

 

Not tan for a while.

When my friend walked out of a job she didn't tell her mum right away she left as if she was going to work and went out with her friends eventually she run out of money.

[lankeela]

When is the bottomless brunch booked for?

[abbeylee90]

17th February 

[bednobs]

now youve told your mum, ask her for help managing your money
