I have 10 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a barista. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. Did any lender work with you?

A simple budget with three columns, fixed, flexible and optional, made decisions faster.

Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $400 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.
