You’re a troll. Your story is either garbage or you’re the dumbest guy on the NK list, or any list for that matter. How many dogs do you have again????

Then transfer into the State system and get a 4-year. Total cost is around $20k-$25k not including room/board total for the combined BS/BA degree.


My dude I can feel the stress in this post through my computer.

Wind the clock. NO RASH MOVES. Get with your family and explain everything, lay it out on the table. Make a plan. Plan A, B, C, D, E and F. Think through it through logically as best you can.
this is the best advice. There’s a solution for everything.

No way this is actually real lol

Furloughs are a big deal for many, no need to make a joke of it

I guess some people have more free time than others though

Taking on someone else's 3 kids is any situation is stupid. In your situation just laughable. @FormerNK might just be right....
