<prompt> Human: Long story short, my family and I are on bad terms and Im no longer welcome in my house. After jumping to conclusions about my lifestyle and personality, my parents kicked me out of the house and essentially barred my siblings from giving me any kind of assistance in order to prove a point. Theyve threatened to call the police if I try to gather my things from my house, and want nothing to do with me as of right now over a small disagreement that escalated into a physical fight between my parents and I.I currently have a job that pays around 9.50 an hour, but they have my car and pay for school so Ill be dropping out until Im able to pay for my last two semesters and carpooling with my boyfriend to work every day, which is something Id like to avoid as much as possible because its inconvenient for him and limiting to me. His family has graciously allowed me to stay with them for the time being, and I need to help figuring out how to afford general costs of living, how to save for an apartment in New Jersey, and what steps I should be taking to better organize my finances. I was just hired last week, so I dont have my first paycheck and have about 7 to my name currently. Should I apply for welfare? How would I go about saving for big purchases? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.  <response>: Theyve threatened to call the police if I try to gather my things from my houseIf your things are still at their house and they wont allow you to access them, then I suggest you call the police to escort you in to gather your belongings. they have my car and pay for school so Ill be dropping out until Im able to pay for my last two semestersIs the car in your name or their name? In other words, is it actually your car or just one that you used?As for school, there may not be a way to avoid it, but dropping out when you are only 2 semesters away is one of the least good options.How much will finishing those last two semesters cost? When would they be over are these a summer and fall term or a fall and spring term or ... ?? This is something that you will want to speak to your universitys financial aid office about and see if they have any options for you as well.What is your major and what is your intended career path right now? Have you looked into any internships for the summer? That would get you both experience in your field and hopefully a better paying job, both things you need right now.
