Imagine having the ability to access those funds in the form of credit, but not wanting to "because it isn't enough" and it "could ruin my credit," then having the audacity to publicly admit that and still beg for money 🙄 Literally an excuse for every possible alternative someone suggested. I'm only in my late twenties, but thanks to an autoimmune condition and just a general lack of enamel that seems to run in the family, I'm in the same boat. Got told at like 22 that unless I went to an prosthodontist and had a complete overhaul of my mouth, which I couldn't afford, that I wasn't going to keep my teeth for much longer. Went to a different dentist several months ago and they agreed I need dentures, and suggested the snap-in ones on my lower jaw to prevent severe bone loss since I'm so young. I couldn't afford it at that point, so I've been working towards it like a responsible adult. We've been working on our credit and saving up so that hopefully I can afford to start the process at the end of this year 😬
