A student loan or aid from the government is out of the question for me. A few years ago I went on EI because I got laid off. The government knew how much to give me, but they fucked up and sent me $1900 too much. I was on EI for several months and I never kept track, after all, aren't we suppose to trust the government.
Long story short, I ain't getting no more money from anyone until I pay that off which is hard to do for a single guy who works for shit money. I'm stuck, completly stuck, and it sucks ass.
