Hi Everyone, Im hoping for help but I am aware that in this world you never get anything for nothing. But what I would like is someone to buy my businesses. Im totally broke paying debts I have 4 Children a husband that works really hard for not much money and Im working 7 days a week trying to pay bills that I have no one else to blame for having other than myself.

I own a Clothing store and a Sewing store, I love my shops and I love the people that are my customers, but I have No idea how to run it to make a profit. I keep falling into traps with other peoples ideas on the internet that just cost me more money.

The location of my shops is in a beautiful beach side town in NSW. So you have country with the mountains and rivers and you have the beaches. Great lifestyle.

I dont want to move away I just want to be out of debt and be home some afternoons when mt children get home from school, I want to watch the midday shows on TV like Days of Our Lives. I have never been able to watch them because I have always worked. If my shops were making money then I could have a day off but they really struggle in a small town and locals do what they can but this isnt a high income area, but the hoilday time are great everyone from the cities come. 

It's not to bad the taking arent that bad if I didnt borrow to go into the shops then maybe they would be fine. (What was I thinking). I run my shops at a loss for tax and then if you go to sell them you need to show a profit to get any money and then you just pay more tax and the money that the brkers want for selling them just means I get nothing... Thats ok but I need the money for the debt Im happy to work I just would like weekends...3 boys and 1 girl. I want to go and see things at school.

I have at least $50,000 in stock

and need $180,000 to get out of debt. It could be perfect for someone.

Clothing Shop and they could get there mum to work in the sewing shop.

Someone out there please think about it. A nice quite lifestyle in a beautiful beachside town in Australia. If anything just as an investment I will work for you but have weekend staff, so I can have time off every now and then. 

PLEASE  PLEASE  PLEASE  PLEASE

Languages: English

I am a single mum with 2 daughters, I receive parenting pension and also run my own business from home doing web development but still we always seem to end up struggling with the bills and debts. 

We have 10 weeks until we leave Australia for a family holiday in Ireland to see family who we haven't seen in 10 years.  I have paid for a lot already, all the return flights to Ireland are covered, half of a week in Spain, a deposit on some accomodation, but hell we still have a long, long way to go.

I have worked out with the money that I have saved and by the time we leave which is in about 10 weeks we will have very little left to cover a holiday where we are going to be away for 2 months. 

I have worked out that we need to raise $10,000 extra in 10 weeks.

So here I am, on the start of what is going to have to be a very accelerated journey on how to raise money fast.  And yes, like all the people here I am  also struggling with debt, $15,000 over 3 credit cards, the payments are killing me with the interest and any penalties.  So I guess not only do we need to save but also square up some debts to more maneagable proportions so we can go away knowing we have at least left our debts in a manageable state.

I will post more tomorrow but would love to hear from anyone able to help.  I will also post any useful tips for others here that I happen to find on my journey.  I have purchased a domain name tonight, my first step, www.backtoderry.com , am yet to set it up so I have some hard work ahead of me!

p.s. my mother is in hospital long term so doesn't have a house at the minute so we have to cover accommodation while there which is turning out to be very expensive especially converting the aussie dollar to the UK pound or euro!

I cannot seem to post a paypal link here so here it is on my eblog! -

Barrister
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Hi, I feel like I have little right to add my wish list to AidPage having read some of the heart-rending plights of other users. I'm a UK barrister, and at 27 years old have most of the things in life that people could search a whole lifetime for and fail. I have two beautiful childen, the love of a good man, the health of my whole family, a roof over my head, and can pay my bills on time (usually!)

I decided to become a lawyer at 18, as I was pregnant, alone, unqualified and jobless. I worked my tail off, and eventually became qualified and very successful, in a top rated set. I now practice in family law, which, whilst not being particularly well paid, is extremely rewarding. Unfortunately, our current government in its infinite wisdom has decided to dock family legal aid to the point that barristers will seldom be hired for the more deserving cases where the client simply cannot afford representation. This has two consequences for my posting on AidPage:

1. I have a wealth of knowledge and specialist skill in family law that I will no longer be using. I anticipate that in the next year, hundreds, maybe thousands of very deserving individuals in need of representation in family law will, whilst technically qualifying for legal aid, be unable to find a solicitor to take their case, and if they do, they are unlikely to be referred to a specialist barrister, but will be represented "in-house" possibly by someone very junior, which may have disasterous effects for their case, which are amplified further by the important and personal subject matter of the litigation, eg whether your child is taken into care, whether your abuser can be excluded from your home, etc. I am happy to offer my advice to all for nothing, especially for those of you who are having difficulty finding decent representation in the legal aid pinch. All I ask is that you read point 2 and help in any way you can, if you can...

2.  The dock in legal aid means I have a choice of losing approximately 80% of my income, moving away from family law, or changing direction altogether. I have opted for the latter. In my inimitable style of jumping in with both feet, I have decided to emigrate to Australia and fulfil my dream of opening an eco-tourism business - a fully self-sufficient and eco-friendly guesthouse/hotel, close to nature to offer not only an amazing holiday experience, but also to envelop people in new ideas and change their outlook on life for the better (and hopefully the 'eco-friendlier'). In order to set this up, I will need to find about £750k, which is going to be difficult with my imminent drop in income. This is where I hope you may be able to help. Yes, if you have a spare £750k floating around waiting for a good cause, then my all means let me know, but I am also interested in good ideas to add to the business plan, details of contacts in similar businesses, or small donations if you can afford it.

I look forward to reading your postings, and wish you luck, health and happiness.

All my love

I am an Australian mother of 4. I brought my children here for a Holiday after there Grandmother passed on, For having been so well behaved while she was sick. I met a man and we married (not always an ok marriage). We went to do our INS papers and the man took off with my daughters and my passports and airline tickets he also took the monies we had planned for this. I have looked into asking for help like this before but I believed that there were other people worse off than us. Until today. My husband has lost his job. Rent is due next week lights too.  My husband can't afford to do our papers with the INS because we really live from check to check barely making ends meet, we have no savings. We have lived in different Shelters in a couple of States for homeless people and I don't want my children to go back to that. We need to go home so that we may have our lives back. When we have tried to get some form of help they ask for our Social #'s and as we don't have any they try different ways to get around that but it always fails. After suggestions from people that worked with these Shelters I have written to different talk shows like Oprah, Montel and Maury and never recieved any replies besides the automated ones. We have tried asking State Governments for help but they tell us that they are unable to help us, I have contacted Govenors Offices after people told me that they would be able to help but again they just seem to end up going in circles too. We do not recieve any form of welfare. We entered this Country legally and we are stuck. I can't work legally so I have no income, I can't save money to go home, and if my Husband was to leave us we would have nothing, without my Husband (no matter what state the marriage is in) we would have the clothes on our back and be sleeping under the stars, hungry. Which we have done (as I remember when I found out that my ex Husband emptied a bank account I had back home) when I found this out I thought how we could have used that money to go home or to get food, at that time we had been living in a tent on a campground for months, my husband had left me at one point and we found ourselves at one of the Shelters we have stayed in. I don't want my Children to have to relive what they have already been through. I remember a man that tried desperately to help us he lived with his mother and he tried to help us by taking us to different Goverment Offices where everything we tried didn't work. I clearly still remember how the shelters were.  I have no family here except for my Husband and Children. I can name the Shelters we stayed at I can even remember some of the staff but mostly I remember how they treated people. We have moved several times most of the time with less than a days notice to get out, leaving belongings with neighbours or childrens friends that we unfortunately have never seen or been in contact with since, so my children over the past have lost a lot of belongings, mostly without complaints. In person I find it terribly hard to say Thankyou to someone for showing some kindness or offering us help as we haven't recieved much of it in our past here and I have a hard time getting those words out without a showing of emotion. I am embarrassed and ashamed to be asking for help. I believe that in order for you to decide to help us or not you should know something of our lives. Thankyou with all our hearts.

Trying to push my story further and further so I have also created a Blog


If your interested Please have a look, I am slowly adding to it and trying to get it where people will see it. Thank You.

desperate

Im desperate i am now in debt and cant get out of it i owe $3500 Im a single mother of 2 girls ive found it hard just to feed them and cloth them. I have been going without meals just so they can eat ive become very depressed and thats not the sort of person i am. My kids now see me cry daily and ive just got to the point i dont know what to do anymore. can anyone help me im not asking for the full amount i owe just enough so i can pay a couple of bills

Wish the rich would spare some.

Hi everyone, well heres my story its not too tragic but its got our life on hold. We have one little girl and a mortgage and we also a problem,that problem is a $20,000 personal loan which we had to get a new car with and consolidated old debts so it added up to that amount. Its costing us $511 a month. I work nights 4 days a week and my husband works full time. I may have to give up my job as my husband goes on trips and we have no-one to mind our daughter. If we didnt have that $20,000 loan then we'd be fine and could afford a little brother or sister for our daughter and it wouldnt matter if i just worked casually instead of the set 4 days which interfere when my husband goes away but we are so desperate to get rid of this loan. I wish i wish that the rich people could spare some so we could be comfortable not rich but able to survive this overpriced world we live in. I dont waste money and i dont smoke and only have a bourban once in a blue moon and we dont go out ever. So its not like we throw the little money away that we do have.
