I'm new to Gypsum, Colorado, and after being laid off from Vail Resorts, which I relocated up here to work for, my employee housing I was temporarily staying in ran out, and the CO expensive cost of living has run me ragged and out of money where I am trading work to find a place to stay. I'm trying to get my life rebuilt, and back together and I'm interested in starting to gather money to get a car, after being robbed for the money I had saved for fixing up a 1979 Eldorado Cadillac Biarritz.

I'm far from a "bad guy", and having ten grand saved for the trip and experience of moving here was a long and arduous amount of time to save, only to be robbed by some of the lesser glorious mid-valley residents.

I'd love to get back on my feet and moving, so anything would be helpful. All things through Christ, and all things bow to the dollar these days.

Honestly I'd pack up and find another resort to stay at. Similar thing happened to my friend, so her brother had her move into employee housing somewhere in Utah.

Instead of giving him money, give it to me. You all know me longer and I have a drastic need for new wheels since I have to use public transport these days and that's something you don't wish upon anyone.

I would love to have a modest Porsche 930, preferably a Flachbau. If I get funded I will make a cool video in which I drift it through snow and plough some high-class escorts whilst snorting snow.

Thanks in advance.

You, and OP it looks like, are misinterpreting that verse.

It actually means being content with what you have...which seems hard in OP's case.

Yeah, mine was a half attempt at a joke. I am afraid to say OP was most likely serious.
