Needing some help
By Scott Keith on 7 May 2025
Before I start, this is “Shhh” I guess. My pic is a pic of Tama Tonga. Just so everyone here hopefully knows who I am. Longtime reader of Scott's, been lounging around the blog since about 2017. Just really started engaging more with the blog of doomers like the day/night threads. It's hard for me, I suffer from social anxiety. I have never needed help in my life. I've always prided myself on “getting shit done” so to speak. If I had to donate plasma, I did that, pawn, did that. I just always made sure I never had to ask for help. 3 months ago I lost my job. I have 2 kids. 2 boys. A month after I lost my job, my kids mother left me for another guy. Just to show how great things are. Anyway I've been having trouble finding new employment so in the mean time, I started like a landscaping business. It's been hard finding clients. Currently have 3. Working on more. I had a very small savings I've been living off but it's basically gone. I applied for food stamps, waiting on approval for that. In the meantime, I come here for help. Why here? It's the only place I feel accepted. Only place I can come to you where my worries doesn't exist. For the 20/60 mins I come on here every few hours. I just feel like I'm shooting the shit with my guys. If I was able to donate plasma, I'd honestly be fine as that's $140 extra a week. Unfortunately being 41, I suffer from high blood pressure so they keep disqualifying me every time I go. So basically if anyone would love to help me out, I'll drop my info here. I don't have any set “goal” to reach. Just something to help me and my kids get through life for a month or 2. I have other income ideas I'm exploring and don't expect to be in this position for long. Also still applying to jobs as well. If any of you would to personally discuss this. Feel free to email me, I don't mind exchanging my number either, just ask for it when you email me
My real name is Anthony by the way. But here's my Venmo and PayPal. I do have other apps. I just chose to post those because I know it's usually everyone's choice first. Again just ask in a email.
Venmo – @ant-man-pr
PayPal – @arentas585
If nobody chooses to help, I just want to say thank you for Scott for posting this either way and thank you guys for even reading, just venting this stuff helps me, and thank you guys for helping take this stuff off my mind. Lastly I'm also open to paying back if needed, we can work something out. Thank you!
