It’s all cut and dry, you are either worthless or have some value to society. Right now I am of no value, I have worked my entire life to pay bills always doing my best to pay whomever I owe. Now I am almost 59 years old, broke, everything is just about gone. Filed bankruptcy to prolong losing my home. I have no money or income and on the 16th of March I will undergo my second back surgery with a major concern on a condition that appeared on the latest Myelogram called “arachnoiditis”. On 1 to 10 level of pain I am between 13 and 20. I don’t know how I make it on a daily basis. Does anyone have a simple answer explaining to me how to file and wait 5 months or longer for an income when you have nothing left to sell and are busted financially
Thank You,
Mr. Paul
