So, my mom told me that we had to reduce the old apartment's price another $10,000 to try to 'dump it'. I really don't feel good about it in any way... I paid $142,000 for it and owe nearly as much on my mortgage, and today we reduced our asking price to $139,900. That means, even if we get full selling price, I'll still owe $2100 on it, not counting the renovations money that I owe my mom for, and not counting any of the regular closing costs. For the past 5 months I've kept hoping, hoping, hoping it would sell, but right now, I really hope it doesn't. I just cannot wrap my head around making payments on something I don't own. It's disgusting and repulsive. My mom says that whatever happens first, we'll go with - whether that is an offer on the apartment, a roommate, or a tenant for the place I live in now. I just can't believe this is happening... it's devastating.
More devastating? Today I would have been starting college classes if I'd gotten the financial aid that I needed.
It's extremely difficult to have one ounce of hope for the future when all you see is endless debt and poverty.
You Are Assertive
You assert yourself whenever it's necessary, but you're always polite and appropriate about it.
You're not a bully, a manipulator, or a nag. You just state what you need quickly and honestly.
You've been assertive for so long that it just comes naturally to you. You're definitely not shy.
People wonder why you get what you want in life. Well, it's because you ask for it!
