It’s gone!

“We “received” $1500.00. It was spent on a transmission for the 2001 Neon that my husband commutes about 100 miles a day with. The car only had 110,000 freeway miles on it. The transmission cost us $1700.00, the money is gone, but I guess we are lucky, it was there when we needed it. He may need to ride that bike! Gas is costing us nearly what our house payment was back when we bought our house 15 years ago just to get him to work now. We live in a very rural area, and there are no jobs in his line of experience, so we have to buckle down and cut back, it bites! “
