Doesn't matter if I have an amazing credit score. When a loan rep looks at me they see nothing more than a disabled, poor homeless woman. Never mind that I'd happily spend $600 every month toward a loan that literally changes my life. A $20k loan would lift me out of poverty, give me a home with a residential address (yay, I could vote!), give me a middle class income and get me off of assistance programs. It's not even that much money. I've already spent 15 years saving and investing toward this goal and because men in power don't 'trust' a homeless 'woman' I gotta wait another 10 years before I'm even close to being free from these ******** up worthless invisible social chains. Excuse me if I don't want to wait any longer to live a half decent life! Fighting all the way with ridiculous rules about how much I'm allowed to save and how much I'm allowed to spend because the government wants to keep me poor or make me kill myself.
Stupid poverty gap. Stupid discrimination. My brother keeps saying, "Just go to the bank! They'll give you a loan no question cuz your credit's so good!" I'd like to see him walk into a bank and get a loan with long hair and boobs sticking out of his chest. He'd be crying like a baby on the drive home. Here he is telling me I only need to try harder! I love him. But I kinda want to punch him in the face rn.
Yes, I'm in therapy. Yes I'm fiscally responsible. No I don't need advice. If you think that my inability to get a loan is for anything other than the fact that I'm disabled and fem looking, you're lying to yourself and probably part of the problem.
