How? I asked this before but how exactly are you going to succeed when so many failed before you trying the same thing?


Because I'm actually gonna get the scholy's?

You better hope so. Because youre fucked otherwise.

And the world is scholarships. Not scholys.

Smaller, essay ones are how much? I never cashed an essay at a bank

The typo wasn't about the essay. It was the fact that you have stated *MORE THAN ONCE* how you were looking into big money. Big scholarship cash. So how's this fit into the make it up as you go along and contradict yourself plan?

Your strategy is worthless at best, criminal at worst, and whatever you haven't decided/changed your mind depending on the time of the day has yet to be determined for where it fits somewhere in between.

I'm just having fun posting in this topic because it's so much of a train wreck. There's no reason for you to continue your misguided pursuit and behavior. Yet, here we are!

You're buying a new Switch to replace your current, as well as the Switch Lite...and yet, have no money for college..

You have a $31,000 bill showing up in less than a month that - despite your insistence to the contrary - you will not be able to simply ignore. This is in addition to the expenses that you're going to incur by moving to a new state and living on your own (your residence fees and meal plan will cover a good chunk of that, but not all of it). You are, by your own admission, making $250 every two weeks at best, which will presumably stop when you move.

You absolutely are not in a position to save up for $500 in luxury purchases any time soon. Especially not when those purchases are extremely minor upgrades to a system you already own.

The difference is that you have bills to pay now. The system purchasing philosophy might be no different, but your financial situation definitely is.

No. If he intended on selling them, he would've had the money for some things he wanted earlier. But then he never would've had the joy of creating those topics of asking for advice, just to ignore it

Maybe if you think of a soft date as a grace period where they don't hammer the shit out of you with late fees

That 31k you think you're getting? Again, not occurring, especially if you just immediately transfer out. Again, not going to happen because you're going to try to stiff your old school from money.

You got this 1k in scholarships. Cool. But you have to pay the rest of the bill before you can do ANYTHING else. And a huge chunk of that scholarship money will be gone in books and fees before you even start paying.

You can't transfer out. No school will touch you. Not just because they think they won't get paid but because AU will refuse to release your OFFICIAL transcripts, and you NEED that to transfer. There's no planning around that. It's regulation.

A couple of minor upgrades to a video game console you already own very much is not a necessity. The video game console itself very much is not a necessity, let alone the minor upgrades.
