Dear FB Friends and Acquaintances,
I find myself in
circumstances that require me to ask for help. Because of, and in
spite of the life I have lived I now find myself struggling for some
basic needs- the most immediate of which, is paying my real estate
taxes before the bill is sold to another party. ...
The
past few years have not been as "easy as riding a bike" for
me. As soon as(and even at the same time) I manage to take care of
one problem, another one arrives. The tax sale was unexpected. I
knew I was behind, but I thought I had more time to take care of it.
Currently, I am not finding a way to pay this bill within the time I
am given(deadline 11/01/13). I have other pressing bills and repairs,
but this is the one that most negatively impacts me. If you want more
details, I am willing to provide them.
Essentially,
this is my "cry for help". No one has to wonder or guess
about my actions, activities, or things I might say or write. This is
it. I am struggling and I am not finding a good way out.
My reason for sharing/pleading this way is that it seems the most
immediate way to address my situation. What I am asking for is that
my friends and acquaintances buy me a cup of coffee($1-$3 I never buy
$4coffee drinks), or a beer($.75 and up. I'll drink at both ends of
the beer spectrum), or maybe lunch(even a $1 cheeseburger would
help). Pretend you ran into me at the store and just wanted to chat
over or lunch or a drink . With over 500 FB friends I figure, for the
cost of a cup of coffee from each of them, I can at least start to
climb back out of the hole I'm in. The tax bill is $833.06.
For any one who needs more details or a brightly colored
red view of my financial report, please contact me. I am in no
position to keep secrets. I am also open to job offers, odd jobs and
ideas and suggestions. Paying my real estate taxes won't save me, but
it will remove a huge hurdle. I have a list of somewhat emergency
repairs I need to do if any of you would feel inclined to buy me more
than a drink.
So, please buy me a drink. I received my tax notice on
October 16, 2013 and the deadline to pay is November 1, 2013. I thank
you in advance and would love to thank you in person. If you happen
to visit Peoria- or if you already live here- stop by so I can say
"thank you". And someday I hope I can buy all of you a
drink. Sincerely, Tim Beeney
