<prompt> Human: I am fairly new to Reddit, sorry if this is not the place for this post..My mother died last year and left me her her home that I grew up in and spent the last 6 or so years. She did leave me some money as well, but I was foolish and did not spend or save it wisely.My taxes are due in September payment plan is 1600 in September, 1600 in November, and 2 payments next year. My mom had dementia two years prior to dying, which is why she was behind a year. She never missed one before. I am out of a job. My bridge fell out and due to my gag reflex, I cannot get dentures. No one will hire a 58 year-old woman with no top teeth. I am so ashamed and embarrassed to do another interview. I am desperately trying to save for implants, but the little I have saved now must go to the taxes and other bills.So now I am forced to sell anything I can find including my mothers ring. Its nothing huge or flashy. The appraisal says 2400 dollars, but that was in 1983.As for income, I get 1100 or so a month in disability. severe sciatica, heart failure, and a multitude of other things. all of it is spoken for with bills. this month and next month I might have to not pay a couple utilities if I do not get the tax money.Can anyone point me in the right direction?Thank you!  <response>: Used jewelry is not going to be worth much - insurance appraisals are great for replacement value, but no one will ever pay you nearly that much. Honestly, if you were to get 500, I would be surprised. You mention a mortgage is not an option, but have you tried? Even with no credit, having collateral makes things much easier - it doesnt matter to them if you dont make payments, they have your house to recoup their costs from. Either way, you will need to find another source of income - I get you are ashamed, but you might need to work - you are nearly 60 with no savings, Im afraid you have had a lifetime of bad decisions - at some point you have to start making good ones. Is it possible to rent the house out, and live in a smaller apartment yourself? Rent payments should be able to cover your property taxes and maybe most of your own rent, until you find a different way of making your own income.
