With today's economy, many of us have money woes. Hopefully after reading these money horror stories, you'll feel a little better about what's in your pocket.
Today, my 4 year old son thought it was funny to put money in the shredder. He stuck over 500 dollars in it.
Today, I lost my wallet with 300 dollars in it as I was going to run some errands throughout the day. Later on, it managed to find its way back to my mailbox, emptied to the last penny with a note saying, "Don't worry I rewarded myself."
Today, I found out the electric bill I have been paying was on my old house. I found this out when they shut off the power to my house.
Today, my mum decided to teach me a lesson about carelessly leaving my wallet about. She left it on the floor so our puppy could use it and its contents as a chew toy. I was almost impressed to discover that he can eat three £20 notes and still have room for debit cards. FML
Today, my roommate and me got charge $100 for having a cat in our apartment. I was only babysitting the cat so my neighbors wouldn't get caught and fined. We got caught because my roommate reported the people downstairs for having a dog so they reported that someone else in the building had a cat.
Today, after five months of not working, I have a check waiting for me at the office. Too bad the office is in another city. My gas tank is empty, and I have no money to put gas in my car.
Today, I applied and was accepted for a part-time network engineering position. Being contract work they asked me what I charge. I replied, "$12 an hour." After a look of surprise they accepted me for the position and said, "Our last guy charged $200 an hour, you're a bargain."
Today, I had to file for bankruptcy because my ex-wife didn't want to pay for the house she didn't want me to have in the divorce, and didn't bother to have my name removed from the loan before she filed bankruptcy herself.
Today, I received notice that I had not been paying my bills and had an outstanding debt of $2074. Apparently, my 7 year old son has been taking my mail and playing "mailman" for the past 3 months.

Today, I found out my broker invested my $6000 in the wrong stock. How did I find out? He called me to let me know the stock crashed.
Today, I finally removed my car insurance after realizing it costs too much money. Since I then had more money, I went to celebrate with ice cream. On the way, I got hit by a truck.
Today, my car got a wheel lock because I had 5 tickets. Three of those tickets dated back to 2006. I got my car and license in 2008.
Today, I found out that I owe the IRS money due to my previous job not taking enough taxes out. I am broke, unemployed, and was counting on a big refund so I could pay for my divorce.
