Need some financial advice: Total retard here
I have 500 dollars total. I will get 100 dollars next week. Then I wont get paid until Jan 14th. I have a 200 dollar bill for a phone due in 2 days, and 500 dollar rent due on Jan 5th. I will get paid weekly following the 14th.
Should I wait to pay my phone or my rent until the 14th? It would be very late to pay them on the 14th. Should I just step back and keep my stuff in a locker somewhere for a cheap rate while I stay at a homeless shelter? I should have steady work until March, I just have a few weeks off for the holidays and it anally wrecked me.

By take a step back I mean take an eviction and be homeless, while I have a full time job.

Why do you have a $200 phone bill when you're receiving only $600? You're honestly spending 33.3% of everything you've got on phone calls?

It is supposed to be 100 monthly for my phone, however verizon made a mistake and double billed me this month and they refuse to fix it.
Also for goodness sakes I have to eat something I did not factor in my food at all. I am super broke.

They re charging you twice as much but refuse to fix it? Why the hell would you pay the full amount?

You need to leverage your $200/mo asset by calling every charity and family member, crying on the phone stating that you're starving.

Offer the landlord $100 before the 5th and the rest once you get paid. Sort out your money situation so you don't have to do this in the future. Drop Verizon as soon as you can and go with a cheaper phone plan.

>by calling every charity
In your downtime this holiday season, you should brush up on your your literacy skills.

Nope. Switched plans got billed for both plans when I shouldn't have.

Do NOT take the eviction. I work residential real estate, a successful eviction comes up when potential landlords run a check on you and drastically reduces your chances of finding someone willing to rent to you.
Pay your rent first and send what you can to your phone company.

Also for food, go to a food center and ask for some food. My festive guilt kicked in a few weeks ago and I brought like $40 of dried beans, pasta and powdered milk for the local pantry.
