FML i could get rid of all my debts and be back in one foul swoop and i can't because the attorney won't take a percentage. all the times i was a kid and lawyers took my mothers bullshit cases against former employers and slip and fall scams on percentage and i get told money up front. FML

sorry just needed to vent somewhere.
