Childhood Home
Added 2022-02-23 13:57:04 +0000 UTCI’m getting really emotional writing this post.
So, my childhood home I grew up in is for sale. I’ve been dreaming about moving back into this house since I was evicted (by my own family—cool, right?) at 16.
My mom is adopted. So, her two brothers from her adopted mother had us evicted. Needless to say, we were beyond devastated, as this was not what my Nanny and B.B. would have wanted (grandparents.)
Ever since that happened, I’ve been dreaming about moving back into that home. Now that it’s for sale, I need to go back. I just need to.
So, should I start a go fund me? What should I do, y’all? Do you think anyone would even help me? It seems like a really selfish thing to do to ask for help on getting back into a childhood home, but this is something big.

I understand it feeling selfish. But I agree you do what you can. You’re not just asking for a hand out, you’re asking for help. And anyone who doesn’t want to doesn’t have to. And even if you don’t reach the goal you can always put it into savings for a down payment on the house if it sits, or another one what catches your eye when the time is right. And you know you have supporters here who would be glad to chip in what we have when we can.

2022-02-23 14:08:22 +0000 UTCStart a go fund me and just pour your heart out like you do. People will recognize the realness hopefully and be quick to help (I hope) Also, see if you can pre qualify for a loan, a hone loan is much more attainable than an auto loan. Onto of that, if you can get a loan of some sort, you'd only need such a percentage down, upfront. A buddy of my got approved for a quicken loan a few years back and needed about 30,000$ down for a house worth 250$k. Shoot for the stars love
