Hi everyone!
I’m starting a new job on Tuesday, but I’m currently in a bit of a difficult situation and I’m looking to earn around €20–€40 tomorrow to get some food and a few essentials until I receive my first salary.
I’m available all day and happy to help with almost anything: cleaning, moving, carrying things, gardening, assembling furniture, errands, etc.
I’m reliable, hardworking and I don’t mind physical work. I’d be happy to work for a couple of hours and get paid after the job.
If anyone needs an extra pair of hands tomorrow in Eindhoven, please send me a DM. I’d really appreciate it!
Thank you 🙏

Hi everyone,
Writing this is difficult for me because I want to be completely honest about how I ended up here.
I am 24 years old and currently living in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. I have recently found a new job and I start working on Tuesday. I am extremely grateful for that opportunity because I know that working and taking responsibility for my situation is the only way I can properly rebuild my life.
But right now, I am in a very difficult financial situation.
I currently have only €3 available. I have no income at the moment, and my first salary from my new job will arrive on August 25.
I also have more than €6,000 in personal debt to friends and family.
I want to be completely honest about where much of this came from.
I developed a serious gambling addiction. I made terrible financial decisions, chased losses and ended up hurting myself and the people around me. Nobody else is responsible for those decisions. I am.
I am not writing this to make excuses or to ask people to pay for my gambling losses. I have taken responsibility for what happened and my priority now is to stay away from gambling, keep working and rebuild my life.
At the same time, a significant part of my financial problems also came from an unexpected situation involving my cat. My cat was seriously injured and had to have a leg amputated, creating veterinary expenses that I struggled to cover. People close to me helped me financially during that period, and I now owe money to some of those people as well.
I am deeply ashamed that people who trusted me had to help me financially, and I genuinely want to repay them.
I am not asking someone to simply erase my €6,000+ debt.
What I am asking for is help getting through the immediate transition period so that I can start working and become financially stable.
Right now I need to cover basic necessities such as food and accommodation while I wait for my first salary. My accommodation is currently secured until August 30, and I am trying to find a way to remain housed until I can start supporting myself again.
I know that some people may judge me for the mistakes I made, and I understand that.
I made those mistakes.
But I am trying to change what happens next.
I have a job starting Tuesday. I have stopped gambling. I want to work, repay the people who helped me, take care of my responsibilities and rebuild my life properly.
I am asking for help with the bridge between where I am today and where I am trying to get to.
Even €5 or €10 would help. Sharing this campaign would also mean a lot to me.
I will never pretend that I didn’t cause part of this situation. I did.
I just don’t want my worst mistakes to determine the rest of my life.
Thank you for reading my story.
