You're gonna have to take your lumps dude and sell your stuff. Music may be a "way out", or "escape" from the hardships of life, but if you continue with not paying what you owe, well....life is gonna get tougher. Remember, you come first and hobbies come second. The sooner you fix the problem, the sooner you won't have to worry about it!

im no financial whiz, but im sayin take a second job man, time to lose any kinda free time/life and pay up....last year at this time i was workin 14 hour days to make ends meet.... now i can work 8 and im fine, and thats while payin 1400a month in bills :

anyway email me if u want, i could probly get u a job at UPS doin part time work, 3-5 hours a night ish, shifts from 430pm-10pm, 10pm - 2am, or 3am-8am ish.... start ya at at least 9.50 an hour, benefits after 90 days etc etc.... not the best work in the world but an extra couple hundred a week towards your debt alone will make a difference quick, we are hella short staffed on most shifts so i could probly hook u up with an interview within a week or 2.... like i said, lemme know.

comes a time in life where we gotta realize that money wont equal happiness, but havin more sure does lower the stress level.

best of luck

Damn... that's a pretty sweet offer. Aaron, I say you take it! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Like just about everyone else here has said.. you should sell the gear. You can always get more later when you figure things out.

In the mean time just hang out with your other friends and help them with their vehicles. You get to play/learn and they get free help! I know it's not as fun.. but some times you gotta do what you gotta do. Hell I put off owning a system for a couple of years just because it wasn't a financial possibility for me at the time.

Whatever happens.. good luck man! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Know what...

as far as what all of you have written...

I agree 110%

Except about selling my gear...

As far as getting another job,I have already started looking at getting more shifts for now at work....all the stores are short staffed right now...and doing that I make $11.hr...thanks for the offer ,Game.. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

I know its a case of "sleeping in the bed I made"...

As I have done before,I mainly needed to vent...I was scared like I have never been scared before.I sat here last night in tears shaking like a leaf...Other than a couple friends...this was my only place I could think to turn...

I'm sorry that I may have "ticked off" some people,but I really need to say something somewhere otherwise I'm not sure what I would have done.

I have spoken to the trustee,and for the most part all the legal mumbojumbo is what did it.She explained what it was all about.I understand it all now,now that it has been explained to me in english.As sits right now,everything is mainly under control.I just need to get my *** in gear and keep my nose a little bit cleaner.

I have it figured that if I go hard,and make a msjor donation to the makers of KD for a while,I can have it all paid up by early December,about 1 mth late.Not too shabby all things considered...I guess....

Thanks again to all who shared their thoughts,feelings and ideas...mucho appreciated...

and next time I make postings like this,just take it with a grain of salt.I dont think,live,or anything like a typical man.I'm one whos not afraid to show hes scared about something...and this is a case of that...

Welcome to the grand illusion
Come on in and see what's happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.

But don't be fooled by the radio
The tv or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But they're just someone else's fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that it's a grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same.
We're all the same...

So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that it's a grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same.
We're all the same...

America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motor car
Someday soon we'll stop to ponder what on earth's this spell we're under
We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are
