Some may remember my situation from other threads, but for those who don't know i'll give the cliff notes.
*Last year my mortgage doubled and I ended up losing my crib
*I had a decent job, and I left my job to get a better paying job and got laid off from the new job within 60 days and 2 days before X-mas
Then today, it got worse...I took my car in to get a new water pump and they dropped the bomb on me. I need a new engine for my car. I knew engines werecostly, but I didnt know a new engine for a 7 series BMW is $18,000...yes, $18 stacks.
At the minimum it's going to cost me $9000 to fix. That's IF I can find a wrecked car w/ a good engine and there's no guarantee a used engine willlast..
Other than health issues, I dont think it can get much worse. No job, no crib and credit is shot due to foreclosure...
I guess I'll just go get me a 10 speed...
