I'm so upset with my mom right now. I'll give you a little story to tell you why.
She worked really hard as a single mom raising me and going to school to become a nurse. She finally became a nurse and works very hard. 10 hour shifts all the time. She has always worked at nursing homes. There are always problems at these places because there is always some bullshit politics there. For example, if the DON (dean of nursing) favors a person they will get better shifts or approved for double shifts etc. Alot of favoritism everywhere.
So now my mom just got fired from her job right before Christmas.It was over a patient missing her surgery (not life threatening surgery) because no one else checked the outgoing patients book to prepare them for surgery. The family got pissed and my mom gets fired.
Now, because of her bad credit, unfilled taxes (owing money on those unpaid taxes), and serious lack of savings her and her current live in bf are moving to this tiny little studio place that is about the size of my living room.
I don't understand why she does this to herself? Like if she has an extra $400 on her paycheck she'll spend it all. She doesn't know the concept of saving or something?? She just bought an expensive tv for her bf as a gift knowing very well the amount almost equals her "savings". Why buy big ticket items when you have hardly any savings? She was poor most of her life and I don't understand why she continues to struggle eventhough she makes +80K a year.
Someone shed some light on this please.I'm trying to not call her and yell at her telling her to get her shit straight so that she doesn't have to worry about money.

I don't want my mom to become homeless. I asked her if she wanted to co-sign to move to a better place but she declined.
Why she still juggles bills and stuff...why? There is no such thing as job security anymore anyways especially the kind of places she has been working.
