Really now I have no money left in my pocket, in my bank account, in my ATM card or even in my purse. Nothing left. This makes me sad. Maybe I spent too much on things that I don't need. But didn't buy anything expensive or what. I spent it buying foods because often times I crave so much that I can't help myself. In spite of the fact, I am not gaining weight.
I don't want to ask to my mother for any money. I am big already. And also there are times when I ask money from her she didn't give me. I just cried.
I'm happy to be back here in myLot again because now I can earn money and I will not ask anymore to anybody.

I wholeheartedly wish God satisfies your wishes.May you be more active here on Mylot and earn as much as you can by being active here.But,as a friend,I would like to suggest you to develop a habit of saving in you.Minimize your necessities.If you go on spending on things that you don't need,then you can't escape facing financial trouble.Saving is a quality that not only saves our money,it also builds our character.

First of all, thank you so much else22 my friend for your advices! I do appreciate it very much. I will keep it in mind. Don't worry. I have learned from my mistakes already. I also hope God will hear me. I would also thank to my loved ones who are there for me always especially now.

First, I wish you the best and hope you can get out of this awful situation soon. I know how it feels to have no money at all. Even though the first thing I buy at the beggining of the month is enough food to make sure I'll always have something to eat (although sometimes it's just cheap food), I've been in the situation where I can't buy anything I like or even need (the boots I'm wearing right now are about to be glued for the third time).
By the way, I respect that you don't want to ask for money, that shows your integrity :)

Hello MiaFerrri! It happens to me all the time especially every end of the month. When I have so much money, I buy the things I want and need. Now, I said to myself I must use my money well knowing that I just receive money from my father. It can be considerate now because I am still a student. But I am not forever to be a student. Someday I will work on my own and realize the importance of money.
Thanks and good day to you!

It can be very hard when we just don't have the money to do the things that we wish we could do in our life. I am in that situation right now, because I want to save up for a flat but I am finding that there just aren't any available within the budget that I have. So this means that I am having to save a lot of the money that I can't afford to. But I think that if people are patient, then it will change for them in the future, as there are lots of things that can be done to help people get money when they don't have any.

I made some typos in my topic. It is supposed to be 'When You Have No Money At All'. So my friend we are in the same situation. Let us just be hopeful and positive that everything will be alright. I made some reflections this time of crisis. I realized that money is important however we should know how to manage it.
Have a good day GemmaR!

You have to budget your allowance next time, Cearn. Students sometimes have the tendency of spending it all. And slow down a bit on those food purchases But it's good that you're trying to earn. It really feels different when you buy or spend on something with money that you've worked for.

You are right my friend. It's a lesson to learn not to overspend so much when you know your money is budgeted. Now I am broke. How did you know that I am still a student? Yes I am still a student. I am happy because I will be graduating soon. Thank you very much for everything. I have learned a lot from what you have said. Have a good day!

Hello jaiho2009! It's been a long time. How are you? You are right. When I have no money, I don't know what to do and how to cure it since I don't have any resource where to get money. If I have to I will swallow my pride just to beg for money as long as it is not bad. Indeed it is a lesson to learn. I want to stand up and fight.

Since you have a computer and internet connection you can not be that poor. BTW it's the first time I hear you have no money in your ATM card. An atm card is a bankcard over here and you can not have money on it. It's connected to your bankaccount. So no money on your account means you can not use the card.
Perhaps you eat the wrong food??? Or perhaps stress keeps you thin? It does to some people. Anyway I think it's a good thing you decided to take care of yourself since you are already grown up. Grown up means taking care of yourself (well) and not depend on others. Your mother did her job now it's your turn. I wish you luck with that.

Yes we have computer and an internet connection. And yes in no money in my ATM though it still has a remaining balance to keep it active. Maybe you think it is a big joke but it is true. Also I'd like to clear that I have a bank account that is not connected with an ATM.
I need to think maturely. I want to let the whole world know that I can handle myself and be able to survive.
Thanks my friend. Have a good day!

Oh, it is good to gain money from mylot. By the way, how much money do you earn from mylot. I am new here and I haven't gotten money yet.
And I want to know, don't you have the habit of saving money?

You are definitely right. We have to strive hard in order to survive. I don't have any bills to pay yet since it is my mom who is paying it but still I end up no money. Maybe this is the time I must work hard so that I can regain what I have lost.
Thanks so much for your thoughts friend.
