đź“ť MONEY TROUBLES... AGAIN...

Posted by RupertTheBlueFox - July 27th, 2021


Well, guys… I’m once again finding myself in deep money waters. Time for me to sound like a BROKEN RECORD.

 

Weeks ago, like an ambitious crap I am, I was aiming to buy a new mid-range graphics card on the cheap for my next PC build: the new build to replace my older one, not the one I’m using. The problem is… it was supposed to ship from Germany, and after waiting 2 weeks now… nothing came. I messaged the seller numerous times, only to be met with silence. I even opened a case for a refund. AND… like an idiot, I closed it prematurely, hoping that the item would come, and I’d make a proper return. All was in vain. I then learned that after closing a case, I can’t open another one for the same item.

 

AND THEN IT HIT ME… I have officially made a $165 MISTAKE. Yeah…. I clearly don’t know what to do now. I’m behind on a couple of my bills again, and even with this upcoming student loan this week, it’s hard to manage. In fact, it’s one of the reasons why I’ve launched the new incentive drive.

 

Right now, I have an old but good-working iMac that I’m TRYING to sell for some chump change. I bought in initially for $300 back in 2012 for video editing school. I’ll even include the Firewire external hard drive. Interested?

 

Also, I could just make Commissioning a full-time job of sort… but should I? KEEP IN MIND: in order for to AT LEAST be decent on my spending and bills, I’ll need to make at least $400 a month, meaning $100 a week. Those numbers ALONE are while I still am getting SSA benefits. (I’m still on the lookout for that, BTW)

 

Oh. And as for fursuit stuffs. It’s safe to say that the only piece I’ve managed to even put money into as of this update, is a head (the quintessential piece of any suit, IMO). Now, I still plan to buy small and in increments. Hopefully, by year’s end, I will have a partial suit. Until then, for my next piece(s), I’m debating on whether to get the tail, or hand paws. Options. And prices. For the record, I’m looking all over Etsy. If there are other options that are cost effective, please let me know.

 

 

That’s it for now. Sorry about that rant.
