This is a pisser. I am very sorry. I take back telling you I'd walk across the street cause of your long hair.
If your name means anything, hopefully, very soon you will be in a better home than you are leaving! Keep your chin up.

Lucky sell everything you own except yourself, wife and children. Find a church, or some organization that will help carry you and your family during this time. Or consider moving in with any family members.
You MUST remember this, You and your family are not the only family to endure this. THousands if not millions of others have too. You can do this, as Abe says "keep a stiff upper lip."
Finally, your local library has free internet access. So I don't expect you to be offline for very long.
We need you to leave the last forum message before the site moves. :)
Its a bum deal to be where your at in life.
You know that you are not a stranger here. You are among friends. And friends help friends. So when you have needs that arise during this time. I EXPECT for you to pm me or email me so that I or others can assist you and your family.
Again, your local library has a computer.
There is always a way out of troubles.

Saying the sucks is an understatement, really hope things turn around for you. Don't be afraid or too proud or whatever to ask for help, do whatever you can to take care of yourself and family. Like the other post said, maybe if you can find a library check in once in a while at least to let us know how you're doing.

At least your wife just got a job so that should ease some burden. Do you have any camp sites near? You may be able to camp in a tent to pass the time. At least you're in a warm area.

What about unemployment compensation? Obama is suppose to take care of us. I am fortunate to have a small retirement and social security but that also means that I am OLD and the end is closer for me than it is for you. I would love to be your age once again, knowing what I know now. I wish you well and wish there was some way I could help you. BillRod

Sarcasm is one of the best ways I communicate, so my very first thought after all of the recent banter was to tell you to go dance at a club- rake in the dough from those women smitten with a shaved, tatt'd and pierced biker..... leather chaps might help ;-)
Seriously though- I hope all goes well for you and the current situation lasts for a very short time. I'll keep you guys in my thoughts and prayers- glad I've been able to start to get to know you in this short time before this happened..... all the best ~Molly

Health is greater than wealth.
Family and friends are more valuable than posessions and paychecks.
Your young and have ALOT ahead of you.
Keep your focus and never give up !
These are VERY hard times.........the only time worse in recent history was the great depression.
This is your generations depression.
Im at nearly a lifetime low for potential to earn a living out here in povertyland...........it's not fun.
But till I can sell my house and move elsewhere, I am stuck.
Tough times.....Very , very tough times.
Do whatever you can to stay healthy and alive. Dont be to proud to take a helping hand....from anywhere......especially government.......you have paid in YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY to the government over time..........now its time to claim it back !!

A local reporter in Milwaukee a few weeks ago spent 3 days as a so called homeless person. Although I disagree with the story and that 3 days even makes you homeless he did note that a lot of so call homeless people didn't look like that bum begging for change on the corner. It was clean cut people in cloths that were hole free. One that was interviewed was even making 6 figures last year. Just shows how a persons luck can change.
Shelters and soup kitchens are good for everyone. In fact some of the meals that were explained were better than ones that i'm getting.

Ditto.Without health money is of no use.I've only had a little work since the crash as my industry always gets hit hard(Contract Aircraft work).I've even blagged my way into some industrial paint work which helped but even that's sparse.We pay a lot of tax over here so I have no qualms about taking back some off the government considering how much Tax I must have paid over the years.Get what you can out of the system,you will have paid for it!!

Bets of luck my friend.
If you can't get help other ways, there is options for your lady & girl that you can't use.
There is more help for women and kids. at least they could get into some place if needed. but you would have to do something else.
I hope this info isn't needed, but....
You are keeping the 500, right?
you got to keep at least Some kind of transportation.
and a bike is the cheapest there is.
Have you found a buyer for the dirt bike yet?
Peace & Light

Just a quick little bit of wisdom for ya Lucky...........
Dont rely on "Others" of any sort to "Save you".
You have to save YOURSELF !
That may or may not involve any religion .
Many a person has died from blind faith .

Dude! Just came across this today (7/18)!
I wish you the best of luck Lucky! Keep your chin up. I know what you are going through, I've been there myself. No, I'm not kidding. Keep the family together, communicate with your wife about your feelings, and do your best to comfort her and your daughter.
Leave no stone unturned, apply for any and all assistance, spend your days walking from store to store asking for work. Any work will help.
I lost my house, cars, lawn tractor, motorcycle, furniture, EVERYTHING but the clothes on our back and it took a while to get back to where I am now. DO NOT GIVE UP! You can get through this.
We're all hoping for you man! I'd offer money if I could, but my wife just lost her job and my income is not gonna cover our expenses. Believe me, if I could I would.

Hang in there, Lucky. As a young father of two, I know how stressful this can be. Have you ever thought about relocating to a different part of Arizona? I'm just wondering if you would have better luck landing a job somewhere else. Stay strong for your wife and daughter. The tide will change for you brother.

If this is your last post for a while then I suppose it won't matter much but Good Luck.
I'll check in with your wife from time to time and see what's up. Pretty sure she cant resist facebook.
