<prompt> Human: so when i was under 18 my father had a heart attack and sense i was a minor at the time i guess i was entitled to social security. i get my check and the first thing i want to do is buy a car. bought the car from my mom for 4,000 she says ill keep the title in my name to help you save money. well now that i want to get rid of the car cause i no longer have a license i cant due to the fact that my mother took the title for the car and gave it to the bank for collateral for her school loan... so it seems like i just gave my mom 4,000 for no reason. i never actually owned the car.Assistant: it sucks. sense all this i have a hard time trusting ANYBODY with ANYTHING. and yeah NOW i know about the laws in place to help me out at the time i didnt know much about any law. i talked to a lawyer about it and there is nothing i can do about it due to the fact that she never signed over the title and sense she never signed over the title there is no official proof that i ever gave her the money for the car or the car ever being sold.  <response>: This isnt a top level comment because theres no real financial advice here, but for the sake of your future employment - it is since. Yes, everyone understands what you meant, but the guy before me probably thought you sounded young not only because you were naive, but also because your post was poorly written. Better writing will never hurt you in terms of employment matters.Since and sense sound alike, but they are not interchangeable, much like then and than.
