I NEED A FAVOR FROM A Brother!

[pumpingiron22]

Thank you guy for the response.
Yes I am successful. But I am a hard working labor Job America As I said this year I will be more me. I live in Texas I own a run a Janitorial Building Service over the past 15yrs. I have a few employees But me and my wife We get our hands dirty to and work out asses off! Work at night and up doing the day to do office paper work. Then I train at the gym help the kids with there home work. My life is good and we do well enough to provide what is needed for us and our family and got my daughter through school debt free.

I see @lckyrica gets it when your self employed and run a business people think your rich lol. Funds first go to employee taxes and the state gas and supplies. We get what's left. Big corporation contracts pay well. But as said above net 30 can turn into net 60 and longer. And start a chain of reaction of getting behind. Most of the time we're fine but every now and then that shit hurts! And you are just days a away from getting a check but in the mean while you are in a bind.

The reason I said BTC and yes I ment 30$ or what ever is I use my coinbase as a bank and have a card attached to it. I hate the bank and there fees so I transfer all my money to Bitcoin no Nsf no bank fees no reorganizing my funds to get fees no double spending. When I use it it's instant and I can keep track of my funds and I usually see it go up so I get an extra money out of the intrest vs banks

I've known PI a long time now. This thread is a bit disturbing. PI you have plenty of well trusted bros you could have pmed. Including myself. This thread is seemingly too familiar to the actions of a relapsed addict. Forgive me if I am wrong.

No I am not a addicted lol. I'm just a regular guy yes I could of pm some of y'all but why not just ask out loud I'm not a shame to ask and would do the same for any one here. When you have no one to ask for help. You guys were the first people I thought of as y'all are more like family to me than my extended family.
By the way hate drugs and alcohol there disgusting and ruin lifes like my parents part of the reason I have no family to ask help for.. I'm and days a way from a check. I just felt shitty and desperate that I could not get pizza and extras when I found out I put my funds in the wrong pocket. Im was just being a human. And a horrible dad. But I'm good
Now and getting figured out. We all live pay check to pay check some times. And it's not that I'm poor it's just a matter of timeing of funds.

Thoght the same thing

 

[Sk8man101]

I'd help you out if I used bitcoin.
Since the fall of circle I haven't fucked with it.

Like others have said, it's just kind of a strange request?

 

[Sampei]

I arrived late.to.the party. Have 200-300 usd laying in btc scattered trough few accounts, i could.have helped you easily.

I'm happy you found a solution.
Take Care PI

 

[Demondosage]

Jesus Christ, can't anyone give someone the benefit of the doubt anymore? All the guy was asking for was $30 for a pizza for his daughters graduation. Maybe someone with kids would understand better, you'll do anything for them and when you can't come through it's the lowest feeling in the world, it's like a knife stabbing you in the heart

 

[Holistic]

@Brolloks i have been a dick to you in the past, but its cool of you to help a respected member.

PI22 if you can help me get bitcoin working again I would send you $50. After circle I tried coinbase but with all of the glitchy security checks I could never finalize it. Looked elsewhere but dam is it involved and a pain in the ass. I do heavy highway construction, I never claimed to be the most tech savvy individual.

You just have to jump through all those hoops. Coinbase is the best option for sure.

Self employed business owner myself, I feel where you're coming from PI. Everyone thinks you're loaded but you're the last one to get paid. Got a friend that owns a business. He bids on $80-100 million government contracts. His take home last year was $18,000 Canadian dollars...

Jesus...you can make more than that working part time at mcdonalds.

Well one of 2 things

1) he is a miserable terrible unfit businessman
Or the more likely solution
2) he has all his money sheltered thru taxes

Geez guys its hard enough for a father getting caught in this position.

A running comentary, really??

Just let the thread die.

 

[weighted chinup]

$18,000 Canadian dollars

Christ, all that work just to walk away with like $600 worth of US dollars....fuck that.

 

[weighted chinup]

If any of you guys in Canada that are business savvy are looking for a lucrative side business, get into some easy e-commerce type stuff. Drop ship goods from ali or wish, advertise on Facebook for a few bucks a day. Advertise to US only (free relatively quick shipping from China is offered to the states by most sellers on ali), and enjoy having your earnings in a currency that doesn't have the same value as a post-war European country, for real.

I would say take that money and convert it back to CAD, but honestly you're better off just holding on to whatever USD you earn if you're in Canada. Our dollar is only going to get worse. We're at like .73. Fucking trainwreck waiting to happen, count on it...

 

[x11]

Yeah but look at the money Canadians save on health insurance.

Yeah but look at the money Canadians save on health insurance.

I'm not familiar with how it works in the states so I can't compare. But it still costs $ (those taxes tho), and if you don't have private insurance for certain things like prescriptions then in some cases you end up getting rx'd a more 'affordable' option (happened to a fellow AAS user, doc wanted to originally RX a diuretic instead of an ACE inhibitor because the diuretic was cheaper despite the individual specifically not wanting a diuretic).

IOW, you get a shittier service (and yes, I know diuretics are just as effective as ACE inhibitors for treating bp and it's just a matter of indication, I'm just using that as an example to illustrate my point). Not unlike being in the states and not having insurance in some ways, but it's still a lot better. You can have a major surgery covered without having to pay. Had an ORIF a little over a year ago and only cost was for the meds and the sling ($20).

But I'll tell you straight, if you don't like the treatment options you're presented with, with no private option(s), you either take it or you're shit out of luck. Pretty much.

Ontario is providing coverage for prescription drugs if you are under 24 and you aren't insured or your parents aren't or something like that, which is nice. Supposedly they were going to cover tuition and living expenses if you wanted to go to University and your total income (or parents total income) is less than $50,000 year. I don't know if they are still going through with it, they already fucked their budget so it would surprise me a little if this came out. Basically from what I've seen you get the same amount of funding OSAP would provide for you or similar but you don't have to pay it back..ever.

And before anyone thinks this is fucking amazing, just remember the value of a 4 year undergraduate degree in 2017 is...well, nothing really. Unless you studied something useful like engineering or medicine, it still comes down to having connections and making friends who can get you through the door. For example, even a lot of people I know with degrees or graduate level degrees in the finance or related field are just getting entry level jobs at best (or at least jobs with entry level pay).

And on the subject of taxes since health insurance was brought up, I haven't done the math so I could be off on this but I swear for me there are times where it makes more sense (and more $) to work 2 part time jobs or alternatively work 1 full time and a part time job at the same time (couple hours every week day and every sat / sunday) instead of working 1 even higher paying job full time with O.T (time and half) in some cases just due to how taxes work out, and my income isn't high at all.

That's some peasant shit right there.

 

[weighted chinup]

But, it's still a lot better than not being covered by the province. I can't imagine dealing with that nightmare of not having anything if you get sick.

I don't want to sound ungrateful or anything, re-reading that diatribe I realize the issues I highlighted have less to do with where I live and more to do with just how stupid the world is in general I guess. There's no where else in the world I'd rather live.

 

[x11]

I don't think the values if degrees has changed anywhere. People want to enrol in a shit course with no demand just so they can party their way thru college and then expect to graduate as a CEO....laughable.

That's why immigration is essential to the Western economy.

Lots of smart Indians etc that are prepared to work and do hard courses of study.
