Once in my life, yes. I was laid off and there was no work out there. Was down to living off of about $10 a week and had to work out a deal with my landlord to work for him to pay rent, and only rent! Was hard times indeed!
-
Yes, I am now. I have not enough for a bag of chips, and I don't do drugs or smoke. I am waiting on my first pay, which will help me out, along with the payment that someone will make to pay me back. Life is a constant battle at times. Last year, for the first time in my life, I made some decent sort of money, and invested it on the share market. Say no more, eh. I think it crashed because my money was on it.lol.

No I cannot honestly say that I have .
-
Technically, yes. A couple of times in the past 15 years, but the survival instinct, luck and once a friend helped me get back on my feet, paving the way for three years of successful asset building from scratch. Let's hope it continues. I never use credit to buy anything I can't afford to pay cash for. I don't live in the US or UK, though. It would have been impossible there.

Yeah, and most likely will again, again, again and again.

Yes, who hasn't? We come in naked and cold and mostly go out the same way. I laugh at all those on here who think they have something that hasn't been given to them.
