Cheap freight hauler asks for donations when can't pay repair bill

If he had an emergency fund in place then he would be able to cover those losses and wouldn't need to beg.

 

I agree completely. Once again, it’s money management issues of all sorts, not just the one thing the op mentioned in the title and his first post.
That’s what I’ve been trying to get across from the beginning.

 

I guess I am doing it wrong...
I went and picked me a company gig To make money again and been running my ### off..
I couldn't go to sleep at night askin people for donations.

 

I agree with everything you said here. And thank you for digging deeper to get to the rest of the story.

 

Because you have pride and common sense. You’ve always seemed like a good person from what I’ve seen on here. Keep on trucking man

 

I think your misunderstanding what i was saying. Namely i would need more information. If he can prove he has a sick kid and maxed out literally everything including business loans to keep him alive and now the rig blew up. Yea sure id consider helping seriously.

Otherwise id likely pass. My in the middle comment is me not jumping to conclusions before more info is released but also not prying open my wallet either. More a "ok, im listening. So who are you? And why should i care?" then anything.
