I need to come up with $1,100 dollars before June 1st, if not the land property I was inherited will be sold. I’m currently working a 9-5 making 70k which after taxes is roughly 50k take home. Rent is 2200, Gas & electric 350 month, phone 50 bucks, car insurance 250, car paid off and my medical expenses are roughly 200-300 a month as I am on the kidney transplant list and have specialist visits. I’m doing Uber eats, DoorDash but it’s really no orders where I live, I’m lucky to make 50 bucks on a good day. I unfortunately can’t do Manual labor cause of a lift restriction with failing kidneys and I sometimes get weak if I’m on my feet for a long period of time.

I’m looking for any and all suggestions on coming up with the rest of the money to pay the taxes. Any unique ideas will be welcome. I also can’t sell plasma - I tried! I’ve been looking for a part time job for months with over 70 applications but with 1 interview and was told I was overqualified. I do have my bachelor’s degree in Business. Thanks!

Why not a standard ceremony?

As we all know Mother’s Day is this weekend and I (40) normally set everything up for my wife and stepchildren. I pay for all expenses for the day from gifts, entertainment to food. This year I’m completely exhausted. Both stepchildren live at home F(26 & M (19), both are extremely immature and entitled.

My ask for advice is, is it wrong for me to tell them to take their mother out for Mother’s Day and I’m not funding it or being the organizer and that their old enough to do things themselves.
