The world has nothing to offer me. I've no family or friends. I've no job. I've no money. The world has nothing to threatening me with.

There are no good people left. People care more about money than the value of my life.

In the thread, I post letters to companies.
 
A sad situation to be in for sure, but I personally think life is what you make it. We’ve had money, now we live on a very small fixed income and I’m not miserable about it. Instead of enjoying the finer things in life, we now enjoy the simple things and actually find sitting on a park bench watching the sun come up over lake michigan, with a cup of coffee by my side, much more enjoyable than a whole lot of other stuff I have done in my life. It costs me nothing and makes my heart sing. I know this sounds very pollyanna like, but it’s true. You can find happiness in someone else’s smile if you look for it. But that is me and I don’t know what situation you are in mentally and physically. I would be more than happy to be your friend on here if that helps 💕

I feel sad for anybody compelled to write something like this, especially at this time of year,

Welcome to Senior Forums, sending my best wishes that things improve for you soon.

What do you mean when you say, “In the thread, I post letters to companies.” ???

Well, it depends your definition of a good person. I’ve met lots of good people on here. These good people don’t always agree with me and may not recognize my wonderfulness, but they are still good people. 🥰

We just moved to this neighborhood when the virus hit, (the horrors of TP deprivation still haunt me), and only lived in the apartment before this house for three months, so no friends 😧 either. Even if we had friends not seeing anyone because of the virus. The friends we had before have dropped by the way side. We do have family, though. We mostly see one son.

We have no money, our money pit of a house takes it all. But since there is no place to go and nothing to do, we are at least dry and as warm as we can afford in the money pit. Covered in blankets and sweaters and flannel pj”s, watching tv, coloring, playing a computer game, walking around the house. Busy, busy, busy.

I am threatened by the virus every day. So, what’s your story? @Idon’t know: why do you feel the way you feel?

Welcome to the forum
 
Welcome. I'm sorry to hear that your life is so negative and hopeless at this point in time. If you're in the US I would certainly agree that our society makes it very difficult to do much more than minimally survive if you're broke. I do hope that you are able to find a way to make life worth living.

I don't have a story.

Everyone has a story. You say you are broke. Broke means you had money, but no longer have money. Plus unless you using a borrowed computer you at least have a phone or computer to use, a place to use it, and possible access to a place to live at this current time.

Lots of people on the forum no longer have family or no longer have family they choose to see. Lots of people on the forum have very little money, or very little discretionary money, or both. You obviously value your life but feel others don’t. Who are the others? What’s the story with them? Who cares more about money than the value of your life?
 
"Who cares more about money than the value of your life"

Anybody, everyone, and you.

If I asked you, anybody and everyone for money they always say no.
