Need Help

Hey everyone! Rebecca here with an important update and a plea for help. On this Saturday, September 27, 2025, I’m sharing an update on my fundraiser to pay off a major car repair debt, plus my thoughts on the current tropical system threat, and big changes to my YouTube channel monetization.

I urgently need to reach my $1,500 goal to pay off a critical car repair before high interest kicks in. The total amount for the repair is $988.66 plus taxes, and the monthly payments are $167.12 plus about $25 in taxes. The full early purchase option is due Tuesday, December 16th. If I don't pay it off by then, the total cost will rise to around $2,000 over 13 months due to interest. The work was for a lower intake manifold gasket and other diagnostics after my radiator broke, which was only fixed thanks to a leasing agreement with SEMA.

The financial stress is overwhelming, especially as I'm disabled and now paying all household bills alone after my son moved out. Any amount you can contribute will provide significant financial relief and help me avoid losing the parts leased on my car.

💰 How You Can Help
Your support means the world to me. I've stopped monetizing most of my YouTube videos, prioritizing free information, so direct support is now more critical than ever.

PayPal: The quickest and most direct way to help. Find the link on my YouTube channel's "About" page.

Patreon: I've reopened my Patreon! You can find the link on my channel's "About" page.

Other options: I also have a Buy Me a Coffee site and welcome Super Chats during live streams.

I’m trying to sell items at a flea market to raise funds, but the current tropical system with heavy rain and thunderstorms is making that impossible this weekend. My dog hates the thunder, too!

⚠️ Tropical Weather Update
I'm also giving a quick look at the weather. We’re dealing with a lot of tropical moisture and rainstorms from a tropical system that could potentially become Tropical Storm Imelda (or another name depending on its status). We need to watch the track closely as it could affect the coast, including Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, especially with Hurricane Humberto also in the Atlantic. Don't let your guard down!

📺 Big YouTube Channel Changes
I've decided to demonetize most of my YouTube videos. My goal is to make all information free to you, as it was in the past. Ads will no longer run on my content (except possibly on my song videos). I love making videos about earthquakes, weather, and general updates, and I won't stop! I will continue to make videos and do pop-up live streams.

Your support through direct donations, rather than ad revenue, is a much better way to help the channel continue to grow and for me to support myself.

Thank you so much for watching, for your understanding, and for any help you can give.

Love you all. Please remember to tell someone you love them. Tomorrow’s never promised. Make each day an adventure.

Much love, and God bless all of you who help me out.
