how man yof you folks have actually hit rock bottom? - GoFuckYourself.com

jaYMan · 08-02-2005, 11:45 PM

im talking like rob a gas station rock bottom... not having enough money for dinner and shit...

just curious who here actually has been there and know what im talking about.

newbreed · 08-02-2005, 11:47 PM

I think you know I have been there...lol

Sly · 08-02-2005, 11:48 PM

Fortunately not, if things were ever that bad I have people I could have borrowed from. There was a time a couple years back where things were really looking bad though, oh and then I started building porn sites, haha.

nofx · 08-02-2005, 11:49 PM

been there

living off of ramen noodles and shit

so much better now. lived the life from both ends, from one extreme to the other.

life is a bitch and money ruins it all.

pornguy · 08-02-2005, 11:50 PM

Cam really close, but I work hard, and save. Things get better, things get bad. Life is a roller coaster.

SteveLightspeed · 08-02-2005, 11:51 PM

I remember living for a week on a 3 pound bag of tater tots and two gallons of cool-aid made with sugar I got from McDonalds. I was dirt poor in college, and too proud to ask my parents for money. That's the most down-and-out I've ever been. I never had to steal money.

Damian_Maxcash · 08-02-2005, 11:53 PM

Yep... been there.

When I was first diagnosed with BP I went downhill fast. Bad times, very bad times.

abadfish · 08-02-2005, 11:53 PM

I'm almost there right now.... until my new projects are completed. You know things are bad when you debate a 99 cent purchase on itunes.

But the worst was a few years back, I remember I'd get 99 cent tacos from Jack in the Box for my meal of the day and pay for gas with dimes and nickels... and one time all I ate in a day was a lemon... I just sucked on it for awhile. That was pretty bad...lol

baddog · 08-02-2005, 11:55 PM

Haven't had to resort to armed robbery, but have been poor enough I had to let a chick move in so I could afford to make my house payment.

Makingcoin · 08-02-2005, 11:55 PM

Use to steal TP from work.

je_rome · 08-02-2005, 11:56 PM

no fortunately not yet.. i've got a family to run to..

Murderous · 08-02-2005, 11:57 PM

I have never been the guy who sucks a dick for a cheeseburger, or jumps off the bridge at the dry revine. I would never steal from family or rob anyone for anything. I have been the guy standing next to them people, but keeping my composure. Spent over 4 months homeless, with $0 and didn't know anyone to turn to. It was a small community so there was not help for folks. No soup kitchens, no homeless shelters, no nothing... barely a community at all.

That made me who I am, and I am proud of that. Only the strong will survive, and having been through what I have seen, I am sure I would be the last man standing.

Wheres the irony in that?

Furious_Female · 08-02-2005, 11:59 PM

I have... it sucks.

I've actually taken things back to stores a YEAR later to get the money for them.

Money can be teh eviL

Atol · 08-03-2005, 12:02 AM

haven't hit rock bottom yet, perhaps thats because i'm a spoiled student and i have all of my financial needs taken care of by the government and my parents...

i did work at the post office for eleven months though. didn't go to school that year. does that count as rock bottom too?

Easton · 08-03-2005, 12:03 AM

hell no, but i eat at Rock Bottom brewery every now and then

http://www.rockbottom.com

gotta love their microbrew beer

basschick · 08-03-2005, 12:04 AM

i've been at rock bottom, and it changed me - not for the better. before you're there, no matter how bad things get, you don't really KNOW... afterward, a tiny piece of it hangs over you.

That is some serious truth there.

I've never robbed a gas station, but I've gone hungry. Not ramen noodles hungry, but hungry hungry. But I don't know about rock bottom. It can always get worse.

Thank goodness for the internet, huh?

Been there, done that. Plenty of times.

The measure of a man isn't how high he reaches, it's by picking himself up from absolute bottom and succeeding.

georgeyw · 08-03-2005, 01:16 AM

CybermedAndy · 08-03-2005, 01:17 AM

I did when I was 18(12 years ago) and checked into rehab- best thing I ever did

PixeLs · 08-03-2005, 03:23 AM

Good thing I haven't been on that desoerate situation so far.

StuartD · 08-03-2005, 03:25 AM

I did... slept on my step brother's floor for 1 year and had friends bring me boxes of non-perishable food for Christmas.

That really was not a fun year, but you really learn to appreciate everything and not take a single thing for granted.

08-03-2005, 04:52 AM

yep have been there

GFED · 08-03-2005, 04:56 AM

i'm there...

Barefootsies · 08-03-2005, 05:49 AM

Yeah, been there. Was a stretch on and off for a few years. College was about the closest thing to poverty I can remember. Especially last yeaar or two. Luckily all the basic needs were taken care of (i.e. housing and eating).

But after college, when looking for a job, and still partying like a rockstar hit rock bottom. Was tough times. Living with sister, and no money, and all that jazz. Many valuable lessons learned which have helped me over the past better part of a decade. One of the biggest that comes to mind is being deprogrammed, and knowing needs versus wants.

If you always have money, and do what you want, when you want, you never really make that division between a want, and a need. Or atleast I never did, and a lot of others in my personal life can't. When you are scrapping by, you really come to realize this. Also taught me better money management, and keeping a savings for the 'what if' factor. Like if your car breaks down, having money for a cab, and such. Or just keeping a 'in case shit happens' account.

While I'd never ever want to go through it again, I can honestly say it gave me a lot of lifestyle changes, and a different outlook on my life. A lot of lessons were learned, and I still use them today. I guess that old saying holds water that, 'courage is not the absence of fear, but the ability to overcome it'.

Doctor Dre · 08-03-2005, 05:52 AM

I've been down but really not close to rock bottom ... and I've never lived in a shithole ever since I was born ... I'm lucky

SouthernGirl · 08-03-2005, 06:06 AM

I went to sleep hungry many nights in my life. Both as a child and as an adult. It's the bad stuff that defines us.

LeeNoga · 08-03-2005, 06:34 AM

I think everyone hits a bottom and endure extremes for themselves. I think everyones bottom is the same, the difference is the actions we take or do not take when we hit bottom.

My brother lived on the bottom and turned himself in for petty cash to try experimental drugs, and 35 years later he has brain tumours all over his head.

Bottom is not such a bad place to visit, at least you cannot fall or slip any further and its a pretty safe place for a moment :-)

There is nothing more satisfying than the climb back up.

363R · 08-03-2005, 06:43 AM

I was kicked out of my house at 18. Was flunking college, lost my job, and my gf in one week. Slept on my friends couch, worked 3 jobs and quit college. Ended up getting my own place, went back to college part time and started a new job making crap money but gaining experience that a college degree couldn't get you.

Eventually I moved up the ladder and now I am in the same field with more experience and better pay.

MindyBlingBucks · 08-03-2005, 07:29 AM

It's crazy what you learn when you're at the bottom. Like priorities.
I once was so broke and so hard up for a cigarette that I broke open 2 year old cigarette butts to roll one. That was pretty bad. But that was also the moment when I knew I'd have to quit smoking. And I did.

I've been pretty far down there, I don't know about absolute bottom, but I've definitely been on the ramen noodle-kool-aid diet before that someone before me mentioned.

After Shock Media · 08-03-2005, 10:53 AM

Rock bottom; having only 1 utility and that was gas, no electricity and no water. Our water was a 50 gallon barrel that we filled up. Only reason we had gas still was that for some reason a few months before I overpaid and it was still on a positive balance.
Three of us living in a rental at the time facing certain eviction and just using the legal process to prolong it. Positive note if your dirt poor and know the system you can fuck with landlords.
Our car which belonged to one roommate had cracked its block, they lost their delivery job due to this. Other roommate who was a mechanic busted his right arm and cracked some ribs and was also out of a job. The bills began to spiral out of control to land us in that situation.
Our food budget for three people was a dollar twelve per day total over the course of three months.
During this period I was able to re-fix the budget, find enough ways to make some money and got all three of us back on our feet with enough cash to secure another rental (first and down payment) plus utilities. From that period on I have always demanded that I am in control of the finaces.

Nismo · 08-03-2005, 11:18 AM

Yup, i've hit rock bottom but it wasn't my fault and I actually did steal food from a gas station many times. When I was a kid around 8-11yrs old, me and my mom were homeless a couple of times. We lived in her car, so I stole food. I was pretty good at it, I never got caught.

MikeHawk · 08-03-2005, 11:20 AM

could tell you exactly the "texture" of what the bottom feels like....
been there dont want to go back...........

Difference of religion and spirituality....

Religion is for those who dont want to go to hell.......

Spirituality is for those who have been to hell and dont ever want to go back...

Consider myself a Spiritual person for sure!

Good post JMan!

brizzad · 08-03-2005, 11:23 AM

To save money, I used to give select girls oral sex in exchange for weed. I also used to fix black peoples computers for weed.

as a kid, I remember collecting a bag full of cans to make $3, I remember breaking vending machines open with a flathead screwdriver, I remember opening random car doors to collect loose change. Ahhh, those were good times.

Was flunking college, lost my job, and my gf in one week. Slept on my friends couch, worked 3 jobs and quit college. Ended up getting my own place, went back to college part time and started a new job making crap money but gaining experience that a college degree couldn't get you. Eventually I moved up the ladder and now I am in the same field with more experience and better pay.

I once was so broke and so hard up for a cigarette that I broke open 2 year old cigarette butts to roll one. That was pretty bad. But that was also the moment when I knew I'd have to quit smoking. And I did. I've been pretty far down there, I don't know about absolute bottom, but I've definitely been on the ramen noodle-kool-aid diet before that someone before me mentioned. __________________ BlingBucks.com ...

Only reason we had gas still was that for some reason a few months before I overpaid and it was still on a positive balance. Three of us living in a rental at the time facing certain eviction and just using the legal process to prolong it. Positive note if your dirt poor and know the system you can fuck with landlords. Our car which belonged to one roommate had cracked its block, they lost their delivery job due to this. Other roommate who was a mechanic busted his right arm and cracked some ribs and was also out of a job. The bills began to spiral out of control to land us in that situation. Our food budget for three people was a dollar twelve per day total over the course of three months. During this period I was able to re-fix the budget, find enough ways to make some money and got all three of us back on our feet with enough cash to secure another rental (first and down payment) plus utilities. From that period on I have always demanded that I am in control of the finaces. __________________ [email protected] ICQ:135982156 AIM: Aftershockmed1a MSN: [email protected]

When I was a kid around 8-11yrs old, me and my mom were homeless a couple of times. We lived in her car, so I stole food. I was pretty good at it, I never got caught. __________________ i buy massive xxx dating traffic.

Difference of religion and spirituality.... Religion is for those who dont want to go to hell....... Spirituality is for those who have been to hell and dont ever want to go back... Consider myself a Spiritual person for sure! Good post JMan! __________________ THE AMBUSH INTERVIEW Last edited by MikeHawk; 08-03-2005 at 11:21 AM..
