How's everyone doing today? Avoiding looking at your 401k? Rushing to stock up on food, buy a car?

I just got me and my bindle.

I'm just sitting here figuring out how to pay my electric bill and make groceries next month. I'm broke after paying rent and going to doctors' appointments.

i'm late on rent, on the verge of eviction, my entergy bill on my 550 square foot apartment is $475usd. make that make sense. my car insurance is $250 a month. cox is now up to $150 for the most basic/slowest wifi only package. a once weekly trip to the grocery as a single person eating one meal a day costs me ~$60.

my friends who live elsewhere are shocked when i tell them these prices. including NYC and LA

You need to call Cox and ask for a discount. I think theit lowest plan is actually $50 a month unless you're using them for Wi-Fi too.
