I'm a recent college graduate that wants to move into her own home! The money will be used for a down payment on a starter home! I teach middle school math in a small district and I would love to use this as an opportunity to teach my students about the importance of owning their own homes versus...
I know I haven’t talked to most of you all in a while but it would be super awesome if anyone could help out! Living with my parents is literally driving me insane and I need to get out of this house sooner rather than later. Anything you can give is amazing and will be greatly appreciated! We get so pumped up thinking all of our problems will be solved once we get that college degree, but the problems are actually just beginning.
So once again, if you can thank you! If you find it in your heart to share out it would be welcome!

For those that don’t know me personally, I was a first generation college student. I finished school this past May and began my teaching career in the fall. As it is widely known, teachers make an amount of money that is a running joke and are expected to make a living off of it while being a flawless individual in and out of the classroom. I think I’m succeeding at the “in the classroom” part, but the “out of classroom” part is a struggle. When I went in to college the plan was to run as far away form home as possible and after a strange twist of events my last year of college I ended up back home unfortunately. I thought I would be able to tough it out for a year or two until I got on my feet and was able to move out on my own, but after seeing student loans kick in (and knowing that my state makes teachers go back and pay for another degree within 5 years) I’ve realized it’s going to be very hard for me to start my journey into adulthood (I’m literally throwing up as I type that) without a little assistance.
If anyone wants to talk before they feel comfortable giving anything by box is always open! I love discussions about shows I can binge watch over the weekends on Netflix. (If anyone is a HTGAWM or Jane the Virgin enthusiast we will definitely get along! I’ve also just recently gotten into the whole Star Wars thing (cue my boyfriend who is a Star Wars freak) and I’m enjoying talking theories about that as well!
Thanks for reading all of this (if you managed to get through it all bless you).
