SGT Kevin Gardner 1330694 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>So economicly I have been hammered since being medically separated from the Army back in 2010. My family and I have drained our savings since settling in Washington state, and employment prospects have been few and far between. Most of the time I got told I was over qualified. (What the hell does that mean anyhow) well a couple of weeks ago I was able to secure a Job, but that Job is in Florida and I am in Washington state. I won&#39;t be able to go there and keep my family here because of costs. I have found a house already but now I am stuck trying to figure out how to pay for the move. I will be holding a moving sale to sell off as much of my crap as I can, but I know it won&#39;t be enough. I hate the idea of asking for help but find myself in a position that it&#39;s my only option. I desperately want to get back to work, and honestly don&#39;t care if I have to sleep in my truck to do it but I can&#39;t do that to my wife and kids. My wife suggested I do a go fund me, but to me that feels like begging and not something I feel is right. 2016-02-25T11:48:35-05:00 SGT Kevin Gardner 1330694

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I get the over qualified thing a lot. Try having three advanced degrees and a BA in a market that requires a high school diploma!

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I completely forgot about this post! Turns out I made it to Florida, things are great and I don’t need help. However posting resources for those who might, wold probably go a long way.
