You can complete the free iPod buying process! You're already 1/3rd there.

1. Get a job.
2. Earn $300.
3. Buy an iPod.

Although in all seriousness, I would save as much of it as possible.

Geez, who would have thought that you had no confidence??? You write some of the best hacks here!!!

I can totally relate though... I have been out of work due to a back injury for close to 3 months now. I am in the process of filing bankruptcy. Problem is I own a business so no work = no money......

I am starting to slowly to work again but I have barley any clients anymore..... I have lost almost all of my posessions in the last 3 months and my relationship with my wife and family is hanging by a thread.... anyhow-- I can totally relate and I congratulate you on employement....

PM me if you ever want to talk.... We have much in common...

Finally, Andy! Now I guess you won't be attending any more "bums for hire" meetings? We'll miss you.

All seriousness aside, good luck and hang in there. It only gets better now.

@RichieBoy67, the only way to go is up now. Been there, lost that, too. Finally starting to see the day of light. You will, too. Hang in there.
