I thought of calling them and quitting my full-time gig to focus on my commission job but I don't know how that will go over with SS. As it goes my insurances I'll have to pay out of pocket and they're raising the price but $30 a month, which doesn't seem like a lot but in addition to not have the Medicare withheld it's $150 mo. and I'm already scraping by.

My head is just spinning. I'm so broke no matter how much money I have I just spend too much really. But most of what I spend it on is essentials and I don't know how to cut costs. Especially when I'm trying to build a new career, which is a money pit at this moment.

I so need a financial adviser, but that's again money.
Good luck w all this, Payne, have struggled w it, still struggle, the very best! Hang in there! Unfortunately, u r not alone, but I know that's not much comfort. Guess just try to be as smart and thrifty as you can, as you r doing, and enjoy the small things in life. And try not to worry. Easier said than done, I know. Take care, Ann
Thanks for this!
