I'm currently selling off everything I own. If I owe on it or not, selling it off to have a little savings

Not even paycheck to paycheck. More like paycheck to two days until next paycheck.

im currently living on credit. Just in the last 10 years we went from paying bills on time and not using credit to living on credit and being 3 months behind on paying bills. And blowing through the savings we have. And we dont live outside our means and my husband has a job as a welder hes been at for 26 years.

Thanks to borrowing apps, I’m living future paycheck to future paycheck and yes, I’m not prepared for when my borrowing limit goes down which is why I have back up borrowing apps. It’s not smart, it’s painful, and I regret it deeply 😁🥰😩😭

Paycheck to Paycheck?! What if there suddenly isn't one when you were already operating that way. That's the new reality.

I've maxed out my credit cards and I'm struggling. I'm buying frozen steam bags of vegetables and packages of chicken that I cook in the crockpot so it makes enough food for 2 weeks so I have lunch.

We aren’t making big plans anymore and just happy to be able to have a nice meal out once a month or go to a movie. Life has become even smaller and it’s sad.

I just had to move back home. I left home in 2013. My mom also needed help so the move worked out. It's sad how bad it is.

Use of credit cards and installment plans like Klarna and Affirm are at all time highs. Big overall economic hurt coming for banks when people cant make the payments.

Absolutely not. I wish I was living paycheck to paycheck. I live on paycheck to a few days before paycheck.

For the first time in my adult life, I’m struggling. Struggling financially to pay my car payment, pay my credit card bills, because I have to prioritize, living, and feeding my children. Even being married living is not feasible on what we’re being paid in the cost of living at the moment. It’s very stressful every day, and to not try to let your children see the stress that it’s causing you when you have to choose how to spend the money, and then how you’re gonna recover from not being able to pay the bills that are behind and where to go from there. There’s no easy or fast way to get money at the moment and it’s very hard.

It’s crazy cause I technically am making the most I ever have and still can barely afford to live. I don’t party, I don’t go out to the mall or movies etc. I stopped hosting get together. And I’m barely surviving
