My daughter is in a program through social security that lets her save money for expenses that will go toward her education and a career. Over the last year we've had many set backs and disappointments. Saving the money has been terribly hard and we are way behind in what she should have saved because of it. Now we are at risk of her being kicked out of the program.
I am not working and have not been able to find substantial work to be able for her to save and still take care of basic needs. At this moment I have $40 in the bank and barely any food in the house. We haven't even had a Christmas for the past few years.
I wrote a book that I'm told is very good, but it hasn't sold much yet and if I could get some sales I think it would boost interest in it and all the money will be going to help my daughter.
