Know where I can get $3000, to get a used car?

I have tried everything I can think of but can’t find no help, I am a stay at home mom with three teenage kids, my husband was diagnosed with myotonic dystrophy three years ago, I am unable to work because I stay at home and take care of him, and the government don’t pay you for that, I have no car so I am unable to get my husband back and forth to mayo clinic for more help, he needs to be on a breathing machine and a heart monitor and I can’t get him anywhere, our car broke down in may of this year and I can’t get no money to buy another one. we are falling behind on bills and don’t have much for food each month, we get food stamps but it is only $115 amonth for a family of 5, it don’t go far. our credit is getting worse all the time. does anyone know where I can get $3000, to get a used car and get caught up and start fresh. I am about to drop with all this stress and tension, im so tired because I can’t sleep at night I need help before I lose everything, just a chance to start fresh.

Here’s an expert I would trust, he’s a nationally know consumer advocate (with national radio program) - you can call him or ask his team on the site and they will call you back - the site: http://www.clarkhoward.com

Answer #2

consideration of bankruptcy might need to be on the list…I would try to contact the unemployment to see what your options are…shouldn’t you be getting social security from your husband since his problem started…thats what happend to a couple of friends that I know…they are receiving social securtiy from a dad and husband

Answer #3

Does your husband get disability? I would check into that, in the mean time try and take your old car tiltle and see if you can get a loan, using it as colateral it may help a little. Also my good friend just got a car financed through this company 1-800-CAR LOAN. Also if you can get a few hundred bucks together you should be able to go down to your local “tote the note” used car dealer and find a decent car and pay it off with your income tax return in january. I might also talk to your teenage kids and see about at least one of them getting a part time job. I know how it is to struggle, I hope I helped.

Answer #4

I’m sorry for all your troubles. That food stamp amount sounds pretty low for a family of five. You might see if it can be recalculated.

Your husband should be able to qualify for Social Security Disability benefits.

What went wrong with your car? Maybe you could find a mechanic who would fix it and take payments over time.

You might check and see if there is a Catholic Social Services or Lutheran Social Services agency in your area. They often help families in need with transportation to medical appointments and also, I think, with vouchers for various things. Also check out your local Salvation Army and food banks.
