[quote name='souljah420']you could always try to get cheap/free health care (medicaire, or state equivalent)[/quote]

How long have you been out of work? We had state insurance for our kids in Illinois (it's a different type there as there are no income levels, so check what your state has), and it was unbelievable insurance. All I had to give them was the prior months income to get the kids covered and then pay a low premium per month. If you aren't making any money, you are probably able to get covered through whatever your state insurance is.

Edit: You are in Illinois though I think you said. Definitely check in to their state health insurance. Blagojevich has expanded the state insurance program quite a bit.

Just looking at the kids coverage we had, Illinois also has something called Familycare. For a family size of 1 (just you? not quite sure if that's what it means), you can make almost $38,000 and still be covered though would have to pay a premium.

CHECK INTO IT!! You should be able to get state covered health insurance.

Here's the link to that table.

You might fall under a different insurance category, but i would bet income levels and premium pays wouldn't be all that different.

Sorry to hear that man. May be the area too. Things seem to be pretty hopping over here in DC.
 
I have had to give up a LOT of things I’ve wanted these past 2 years. Several big games I wanted to buy I have been unable to afford. I recently had to trade in some of my old games, including some very rare ones, just to be able to play some of the more recent stuff. The latest one was Mass Effect and I didn’t want to give it up but had to pay off a pre-order. I have wanted to take a few trips too, including one to Hawaii (I’ve badly wanted to visit there for a few years now) and was unable to go on them due to this whole mess.


Poor baby you could't go on a trip to Hawaii booh hoo. Stfu and get a job like the rest of us I hear BugerKing us hiring.

I agree with the fact that complaining about this shouldn't garner much sympathy. We all have things we'd like to do but we have to live within our means.

That said, don't just look online on in the paper for jobs, get out and look around your neighborhood. Go ahead and stop in places and ask if there is any work available. You may get lucky and find someone looking for a go-getter to hire.

And I agree with what others have said - get a job, any job. I bagged groceries at 28 years old when I was laid off from a job and did that for 3 months until I caught on somewhere else. Was it what I wanted to do? No way, but I put food on the table and that's what counts.

Good luck, OP. Hope you find something.
