I guess if their decisions didn't affect my life, I wouldn't care what they did. But I'm over here with a lot of health problems that are costing me a lot of money, and they'd rather throw their money down the toilet by giving it to a drug addict who lies to them. And since I'm the only child left, I"ll be the one who has to take care of my parents when they get too old. So I'm feeling a little bitter about having to help people who pretty much have kicked me to the curb all my life.
I filed bankruptcy once in my early 30's, and it worked because I didn't own anything for them to take away. But now I own a car that I just bought last year, so I can't risk losing that. Plus, I don't want it on my credit for another 10 years. I'd be almost 60 by the time it came off. One of my debts is a student loan. The rest are credit cards, a bank loan and a car loan. I would get a part-time job if I could, but my health won't let me.
