Tim is right, sorry. Some shit you can't help, like your car getting hit. This entire failure of a welding scheme, however, was against all common sense and all advice you were given. Its not bad luck when you did all that to yourself. Wah wah, people took advantage of me, fuck that, you let yourself be taken advantage of. You also would have had the money to pay for your bond when YOU fucked up your court date, if you hadn't bought all this fucking material and an expensive ass tig welder before you had ever welded before (and before you knew it was even a working welder). Fucking priorities man. Get a job, don't do fucking drugs, save some money for a buffer, then if you have extra money, put that toward some backassward scheme to make more money. You don't gamble with what you can't afford to lose.
