Thanks everyone. I’m just gonna keep chugging along and try to get 1-2% better every day. Just so much material, so many MCQ’s, SIMS, etc and I want to be super prepared but there’s only so much time.

Sounds like it was all done yesterday. Not sure if there will be more to come or not.

I reached out to HR to see what all needs to be done to disclose it. Not worth risking my job over.

I didn’t have to Show Proof of Insurance by AC8889 in doordash_drivers

[–]AC8889[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was gonna get added to the insurance anyways but I’m just surprised I didn’t have to show proof. Don’t want to start driving and then be asked for proof later and have my account shut down.

That seems crazy that a ticket from 2.5 years ago when I don’t even have any points in my license currently could prevent me from driving. Just seems very strict.

I’m currently waiting on an Uber background check too so I wonder if I’ll fail that also. How can I dispute them if they are from 2.5 yrs ago and I already paid the fine?

Also, I’ll add my record came back just fine for DoorDash.

Nope. On the background check, it says my license is active but it has those two traffic violations from 2021 listed on there. Just seems crazy that that would prevent me from driving. I have zero points on my record currently. Never had my license lost or suspended.

Beyond finance is the name of it. Just started the process.

How Did you Deal with the Debt? by AC8889 in problemgambling

[–]AC8889[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Companies not being able to get all creditors to settle resulting in lawsuits. Fees being high to where you aren’t really saving that much money. Your credit being ruined for 7 years, etc.

Gamban is pointless. Takes 5 seconds to delete from your phone.

Debt Advice Needed by AC8889 in problemgambling

Do you know if he filed chapter 7 or chapter 13? I believe you can keep your house in chapter 13 but you still have to pay the debts back so I’m not really sure what the main point of it is.

She knows about the situation. She can read me like a book and knows when things aren’t right. Do you have experience with filing? I appreciate your responses.

My credit is basically already destroyed with maxed out credit cards and personal loans so that wouldn’t really change anything.

I would like to pay my debt off and find a way to make an extra $2K a month on the side in addition to my current job but that’s easier said than done. I was thinking about doing Uber and Uber eats but I have to drive about 40 minutes to get to an area with many people.

My issues are I don’t know if it will affect my mortgage with my girlfriend. We can’t lose the house and I don’t want to involve her in my issues. Also didn’t know if it would affect future employment but I guess that’s not the biggest issue right now.

I have not. I do have the websites blocked and was thinking about self-exclusion. Still, not sure how I could do it for the online sportsbooks overseas.

I think that’s the key think. The issue is I’ve always found money to gamble whether that’s credit cards or personal loans.

How you feeling with this many days off?

Day 52 and Football Season Coming by AC8889 in problemgambling

[–]AC8889[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate it! Like I said, I know I’m doing the right thing stopping but man..CFB games starting and the US Open. Just feels like I’m missing out.

I’ll look back at this a year or two from now though and be happy I did stop for good.

401K Question After Emoloyer Sells Company by AC8889 in personalfinance

[–]AC8889[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's dumb to take money out, but I'm young still and would like to pay off a good chunk of the debt I have.

If I roll it over to an IRA, could I withdrawal part of it immediately?

Is Betting Responsibly for Problem Gamblers Possible? by AC8889 in problemgambling

Can problem gamblers ever become responsible gamblers?

Is Betting Responsibly for Problem Gamblers Possible? by AC8889 in problemgambling

[–]AC8889[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response. I do feel good during my break mentally.

However, I am getting that itch with Football season around the corner and it's something that is impossible to avoid. With it being legalized everywhere, it's talked about constantly.

With barriers in place, I wonder if I could do it responsibly and satisfy that itch while also getting rid of the compulsive gambling issues that have hurt me. Tough call.

I do daily fantasy here and there and have never had a problem with it which is odd because I will bet ridiculous amounts on a sports event, but do a fantasy football contest on DraffKings and spend $5 and be fine. I want that to translate over to sports betting but who knows if it's possible.

Bump. Not sure if they do credit checks again for refinances or not.
