<prompt> Human: My mom died suddenly last week. She had no life insurance and no savings, she was disabled and between her SSI and my income take home pay is 2240 we barely made ends meet. We even lived in a 1 room apartment to save money. She was my only parent and Im an only childIm trying to figure out where to cut corners to pay the expenses now and to see if I can even afford to live in the apartment rent is 1019mo. Im going to cut back on cable lower package saves 40 and phone her line saves 15 and light bills Im gone a lot. Cancel my gym membership that is 70 a month. I want to possibly get a side job but I dont want to overwhelm myself just yet because this was so sudden. But now Im going to have the debt of her very simple funeral over my head with everything else. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  <response>: Finding a cheaper apartment should be your first priority ASAP. Spending 50 of your take home pay on rent is not a good idea. Cutting back on cable? Sure fine, but maybe cut it altogether while you figure out your budget.
