So I have recently within 72 hours found myself without income, a working vehicle, and no real means of driving to work.

I live out in Princeton, West Virginia.

The vehicle in question has a fucked up wheel, the rim has too many dents & a loose lugbolt, and I've no way of filling the tire with enough air to create a complete seal, so I can then drive around job hunting.

I've got roughly 82$ cash money on me.

And I'm black.

You guys got any advice that doesn't involve resorting to nigger ass behavior?
I have literally months in work experience, and no trade-skills.

I've two PCs one's a fucking mid-range from 2011

I am all ears for all sorts of advice.

If you have any credit whatsoever, or at least no bad credit, try taking out a small loan from a credit union for a shitty $4k civic, or a loan to fix your car.
>>
>>2281327

I'm not sure my credit is any good nowadays, roughly 5 years ago I tried college, and the woman I was with had a Emergency injury that required me to eventually drop out

TLDR; I owe probably by now in excess of 9k

I'm not sure my credit is good enough to get a loan, but more importantly Who the hell is going to give a loan to a black man with little to no work experience, on a damn Sunday of all times.

I should add I've got a pair of mountain bikes, I'll fucking pedal my ass somewhere if I have to.

I'm still reeling from this same woman leaving my ass out to dry, I could use the fucking exercise and mind clearing.

I've gotta figure out how much debt I've got with my Power company, my fucking landlord & Utilities.

Yo I'm black too and I still got ripped for asking for advice. Privilege is white and right and /biz knows it.

Thanks for downloading that Kendrick though.

That's not an option, I couldn't afford to if I wanted to, and I'd rather not be a burden on my mother.

Gotta figure this shit out mayne.

that's 3 strikes OP, you went 1 step too far.

If legit, carpool? craigslist? collect scrap metal? there is always a way. seriously, scrap metal can make some decent bux. a friend of mine collects old car batts and forklift tines and scraps them.

Do you already have a job?

If not, why exactly do you need a car right this second? Do it tomorrow.

>>2281557

The two bikes are from a prior relationship man.
My father died of cancer back in 2008.

Come the hell on.

No I'm just trying to get my options sorted out.
And it's the beginning of the month, I'm not sure rents been paid. So that's going to be fun figuring out.

Isn't there a way to rig up crypto mining with a program that'll mine whatever coin you can most efficiently mine with your PC setup?

sorry man...

congrats on getting custody of the two bikes though.

seriously though - do not take a pay day loan or any high interest shit like that. ask for friends and family to help you out. get your car sorted first, deal with one thing at a time. it will be ok.

Jesus fucking christ, that's absurd.

I thought I'd be able to make a couple hundred dollars in a week maybe mining with my old ass FX6350 & HD7870

Good goddamn.

I've one friend, And I wouldn't ask him for money, I don't come from a backround that makes me comfortable asking for hand outs.

And no real family to speak of.

take the bus
>>
>>2281269
Here's the thing OP. You're pretty much fucked on the short term. You need to focus on the basics.

-You have a bike. Is there any jobs you can apply for within biking range? Tap your network of friends, family and neighbors.
-Also, I realized Princeton is small, but does it have buses? Ain't no shame in taking them.
-Remember when filling out job applications and going on job interviews, appearance matters. Try to where polo's, khakis, belt and dress shoes. Don't forget to shave!

Good luck!

This guy giving real advice, nice. Seconded also. If it is an option let your car be, go for public transportation or biking.

Went to a job interview back in 2013? I think.

I was wearing business slacks, a dress shirt & shoes. And the guy said I looked like a thug, despite having my hair shaved and being clean shaven with a groomed goatee.

I can't go michael jackson mode, I ain't getting any whiter then I am. That soured my expectations for reasonable treatment when going for a regular job interview.

Like hell it did.

You know what it did do? Gave the local college an excuse to cash in for nearly 10Gs using my ass as collateral anon.

So, 5 years ago.

I'm expecting a bouncing baby boy
Great. Marvelous, the creation of life.

Baby comes, I'm not able to find work so. I do what I guess could be considered intelligent.

I apply for College, hell why not, I am now old enough to file as an independent student, rather then not able to file at all in previous years because I don't meat certain laws.

Seems to be going fine, seems to be going great. I'm even able to find a course schedule that syncs with my needs to attend to my son, and do things about the house.

Semester starts, I'm doing alright.
I'm doing fine.
Anon, we can't give you your money.
>Well did you get yours?
>Yes
>Well are they still intending to give me my loan disbursement?
>Yes
>When?
>We don't know there's a problem with our "Electronics department"
>OK well can I get a school credit to buy the rest of my coarse books?
>No
>Why not? We don't know, I'm sorry

>Talk to a bunch of official people
>Can I please get a course credit, I'm a month in and can't do the rest of my classes
>No, sorry our "Electronics department is down, and I'm not authorized to give you a credit."

3 months in, nothing, no money. No disbursement no willingness to give me a credit to get the books I need. The work I could do I was fucking acing.

I ended up having to drop out because FemAnon turns out has a rapidly perforating and failing Gal Bladder, and requires emergency surgery to avoid blood sepsis and possible death.

TLDR;

I meant apply to colleges to work at. Community colleges are all about diversity n sheeit and hire black people at the drop of a hat.

I literally work in one in the financial aid department.

It sucks, but it's not the school's problem. You're confusing financial aid with school money. There is no such thing as school money. The 9k loan you took out was from the government, and agreeing to the loan means you agree to finish your courses and pay it back. The government disburses financial aid, which means as long as you meet the federal eligibility requirements (2.0gpa or higher, 67% courses completed with a C or higher, and having no more than 150% of the credits needed for your degree) you will get your financial aid if you qualify. Since you accepted the loan you obviously make under 60k/yr and qualify. Disbursements go out in 90% of schools about a month - a month and a half after classes begin. You're supposed to buy books with FA before classes even begin, not after disbursements go out. Once the first week or two passes you can't buy books by charging FA anymore. But if you don't have enough money for books you're shit outta luck, not the school's problem. Learn to work the internet and pirate that shit anyway, buying books at school is literally giving money to Israel.

Also your professor is under no obligation to "work" with anyone outside of what's outlined in the syllabus, and she has nothing to do with the finaid process, so even if she's a bitch it's not her fault you didn't get your money and can't do the work. What do you even expect her to do?

If the school is giving you shit about giving your FA, take it up with the Department of Education for your state. They'll fix it up mighty quick.

tl;dr none of this has anything to do with you being black

As long as you avoid the pill-tweakers, and Krokodil/Heroin users, it's not so bad. And quiet.

I like Quiet.

Spend some time researching the job markets in cities within your region, not too far away though as you only have 82 dollars. Pick a city with the best prospects. Make sure to factor in cost of living to your choice.

Once you have found a city with a decent job market, spend your last 82 dollars on transportation to get there. Immediately go to the nearest homeless shelter and sign yourself up. That should give you ~90 day buffer to find a new job and get an apartment/roommate (if necessary).

Use whatever remaining time you have at your homeless shelter to save up every penny from paychecks before you move out.

THat's not really an option anon.

I've a car that needs maybe a couple hundred $ for repair, I'd be a damn fool to leave it behind like that.

Would be great if I had absolutely no transportation and someone to buy the vehicle for a lump sum despite it's repair needs tho.
