I can't afford to pay my rent tommorrow because my transmission went out last week.I will need my car because I live in Redlands California and work 25 miles away in Fontana.I suffer from a wage garnishment as well.Is it possible for me to break my lease then use my rent money to fix my car?Should I sleep in my car until my money is right or should I go to a pay by the week motel.I don't wanna move back to Mississippi because the wages suck really bad like $6.00 an hour bad.I love California and I like my job.I have my co worker take me to and from work and I even pay for the gas but he still causes me to be late.My boss is very understanding and even let me use the company van some last week.Should I sleep at my jobs parking lot and go to the health club to shower everyday untill I save up for a apartment?I found this place in San Bernardino that will find me a place for 500.00 a month but they want a 150.00 sign in fee then they promise to find you a place.I am all alone out here.

Maybe you should start using your head instead of just your hands. Go to school part time and get a job nearby. You can probably get a grant or a loan to go to school. When you get out and are earning $50 an hour you can pay off the loan. But you must be motivated and study an area that has jobs. You don't want to finish school and end up driving a cab. Be creative and think long term, you've been thinking one day at a time for too long!

I can't think of answers for all your problems but one thing that you should be very careful about is the company that promises to find you a place to rent. They're all ripoffs, all they do is put the newspaper information in a sheet and hand it to you. You'll find that many of the places they send you to have been already rented weeks before. If it was me, I try to sleep in car.

Is there anyone else willing to get an apartment with you? Try getting roommates and if you cant find anyone right away do try to sleep in a hotel. Even thou your boss might understand your situation that does not look good.

i think i saw your question the other night. if i were in your situation , i would break the lease, find a local ymca,and get the tranny fixed. the ideal situation would be to find a roommate, or someone to sublet,so you would not have to pay for breaking the lease.but if you dont know anyone in your area, that may be tough,unless you advertise. p.s.- be sure to let your boss know that you appreciate his help. and- you might want to review your spiritual beliefs.praying for guidence and believing you will be heard will ensure that you will get all that you need. i will be glad to pray for you to get the help you need,even if you dont. best wishes.

Why not try to get a place with roommates? It might save you some money. Get a second job.
