<prompt> Human: Hello everyone, I hope you can give me some insight on how to handle this. I just spent the past 123 days roughly 4 months in county jail and now, evidently, Im out.EDIT: Since a few people have asked, I was convicted of a misdemeanor simple assault, the case is closed. Got some probation time. I didnt think it was relevant since it wasnt a felony or anything super crazy. Although, maybe it is.Now, I expected that Id run into some financial issues since I lost my jobs and all of my savings cash and 401k went into retaining an attorney, so Im not surprised to find myself in this situation. Im currently dealing with around 4.5k in credit card debt and my phone lines got disconnected. I was financing a car prior to my arrest but I had to have my family give it back to the dealership. Bottom line, my credit and my finances as a whole took a nosedive. Im currently looking for work but I feel like, even when I get hired, the climb back to normalcy is going to be very steep. Any advice on how to tackle these debts and get back on track?Thank you. Assistant: One thing that might help, go on ebay or somewhere and get a cheap used phone. Then sign up with mintsim. The intro plan is like 15 a month for 2GB and unlimited talk and text on tmobile network.Good luck, hope things pick up for you.Human: Woah. Life saver. Thank you!  <response>: Use Swappa instead of eBay - the Swappa staff check to make sure people are not selling a stolen phone or a phone that is locked down due to non-payment of financing on the phone.
