JC (no not Jesus) from St. Louis, Missouri needs Free Money

JC from St. Louis sent the following message to ActuallyFree.info:

"had back surgery out of work for three months getting only 500 dollars every two weeks to live on to pay bills and try to buy food."

JC, I hope you're healing well and doing what the doctor says to get better quicker. I'm sorry to hear about your work situation. Unemployment is more and more common these days. As the Freebie Finding Help page describes on my website, I can only offer information on how to obtain freebies, including free money; I cannot personally provide the freebies. And I actually already have tons of information that might be able to help someone in your situation. Getting the freebies will depend on how well you use the information, if you're eligible and if the freebie actually exists.

The Governement Freebies page gives tips on how to obtain government freebies. If you have a low income and possibly if your back surgery qualifies you as disabled, you could be eligible for benefits including free rent/housing, money to help pay for bills, free medical insurance, and free food (look for nutrition programs and food stamps). Government resources may be where your $1000/mo is already coming from. If it is, that doesn't necessarily mean your not eligible for other programs. If anything, it is easier to get benefits from one government program after you have already been established as eligible for another program for those with low income.

You may also find the information on the Free Money page to be helpful. This page not only lists ways to get free money, but it also lists ways to get quick cash and ways to save money or stretch your dollar to pay for more. I would suggest at least the following pages:

The Make Money Online page explains the different ways to earn money on the internet. I don't know how incapacitating your back surgery has made you, but I know that if you were able to send me an email then you are able to use a computer and you have internet access. This is basically what you need to start.

The Avoid Wasting Money page explains how to reduce costs and lighten your expenses so that you can live within a smaller budget.

And speaking of budgets, you might also be able to use a free budget spreadsheet download here or find more financial freebies.

Based on your situation, you may also be able to use some of the information found on the Free Housing page, Free Coupons, and Free Food.

Hope this helps JC. Good luck and I hope you get better soon.
