When I was in college, I had no money at all. I sold everything that I own just to eat mr noodles. I sold a $1000 computer for $200. I sold my ps2 for like $70, that was back when they were still $200. I also went to the food bank, and the college food bank...who would give you some food and $20 for the grocery store. I had a credit card that I maxed out within 3 weeks and lost my job right after. That was about a year and a half ago and I still owe the full $500. I also owe an old cell phone bill and phone bill.
We used to make up excuses to the landlord for why we couldn't pay the rent because we rarely ever had $750 to give him. After 5 months, his parents said we could move in with them and we did. It hasn't been as bad since then, but his mom lost her job right after we moved in and we haden't gotten jobs yet because my boyfriends licence was suspended at the time.
I've never been without food because we always had the food bank to go to.
