I hope everything is well with you my people here in my lot.
In life there is different people from all walks of life.
In normal circumstances with life there is always ups and downs.
So when you face some difficulty in your life in terms of the economical situations what is your approach in this situation.
Some people would ask for support from the family members, relatives, friends, church, mosque, crowdfunding, borrowing of loans from the banks, loan apps among other ways.
For me I always go to the loan apps and borrow some soft loans payable monthly.
What about you?
Happy my loting time.

I agree with @arunima25 borrowing money especially from family members might ruine your relationship and more so many people just wanna know your situation and at the end of the day they'll be gossiping you.
I wonder how humans are

It brings down our self esteem. It's strange that how people show their true colours in such times.

Where can you get help from if the family is not ready to help?

I tried the best I could to get help from my best friends. Some were helpful, some others had objections.

So great up to that far end. I hardly get any assistance from family and friends. Explaining your problems to them is like just letting them know that you experience some tight times but they never help.

I hate to hear you have to take out loans because they end up costing so much in interest. However, I get not wanting to ask family and friends. I have borrowed like $20 from my dad before, but he doesn’t care. I paid him back the following month, but he told me I didn’t have to pay him back at all; I did anyway.

@AmbiePam It's okay. I used not pay back what I was given by my late father

I hope the milk tea business on the mall booms so much. It's good that you have a well paying job too.

We always make sure to have enough money to pay the bills.

That's the explanations for all the people but there's always ups and downs that leads one to fail in paying their bills due to the lack of money

You do a wise thing there. I would never like to ask for money from friends or family. It might ruin the relationship in long run. By God's grace, I have not been through a economic crisis so far. I took loan for home and car and glad that I paid them back in time.

You have really spoken the truth with family members towards helping you. In the olden days people helped each other. I always wonder where the best people go.

When you don't have family sometimes you have to panhandle. My family didn't want others to know that I needed money. Sometimes we have to think big and start our business with a loan. A loan app is something I will have to try. Peer to peer lending, crowdfunding are good ways to generate cash. I'm looking for side hustles and can start online. You can search for these gigs online and Tik tok that can be done from any country. Best wishes and we can exchange ideas.
