Usually, you think of the hospital or drug store as a place to go for treatment when your sick.  I’m now telling my friends I go to my car.

It started when my son got a bad diagnosis in January.  Fortunately, he will live to laugh about it someday.  But my husband’s health plan has been placing more of the insurance costs onto employees the past several years. With family coverage that’s a big hike in monthly expenses.  We pay much bigger insurance premiums but get reduced benefits.  

When Justin got sick, our co-pay on meds and one procedure was basically $2700 for the first month.  Add to that, we’ve been hit with a home mortgage interest increase.  And I lost my own job last year and have been looking for work all this time while taking care of a sick child.  Bottom line, we have “bad credit” due to the fact we’ve had a hard time keeping up with bills.  We didn’t know where we would get the money for the medications and related expenses.  If you’re new to this, note that when you work and have insurance you’re excluded from the free medicines programs you see on TV.

My husband works in downtown St. Louis and we live in the MacKenzie area, near Willmore Park. But he’s in sales, so of course his car is essential to his job.  With gas prices we considered selling our second car, but that’s nearly impossible with three kids.  But we got to thinking about how to turn that asset, my car, into fast cash.

Here’s how we did it. I went to Car Title Loans in St. Louis for some fast cash. I borrowed money against it to cover those first few months of medical expenses in the deductible.  Fortunately, I didn’t have to go to a scary storefront operation in a strange neighborhood.  It’s all done through an online application that takes about 20 minutes to complete.  It’s definitely the online car title loans company I will go to again under similar circumstances.

My husband went to jail for embezzling from his father’s company. How pathetic is that? You can’t even trust your own flesh and blood. The news which hit me in the face like a brick, even though all along my friends and family said he was no good, but I always believed in him. Needless to say I was getting a divorce, and it was going to be expensive. Between attorney fees, and losing the house to pay off the money my ex husband stole, I was out on my butt. I was spent both emotionally and financially. I now had to get back in the game of life as a new single mother. It was probably a good thing, but I didn’t know where to start, and how I was going to pay the attorney fees.

I was fortunate to able to find car title loan in St Louis that loaned me $6,000 to cover most of my bills. It was like starting over in life, but having someone who trusted you giving you money, even if it was a title loan, to get your life back.

I would recommend St Louis Car Title Loans to even my best friends. They were there for me during one of the most difficult periods of my life, and I will forever appreciate the help they gave me when I needed it most.
