    I’ve been working nonprofit for a couple of decades but it hasn’t supported me well. I haven’t been to the dentist in 22 years. I’m thankful I don’t have any tooth pain. My wife is in the same boat. We had worked side jobs and hustled during COVID to put away some cash for it, saved up $19k. Only to need massive foundation/waterproofing work on our home. Now we’re broke, my job contract ends in less than a month. I was worried about my teeth, now I’m worried about my family being homeless.
