I was in a shitty mood due to being broke, staying up all night doing drugs and being generally depressed.
But then I finally decided to walk my talk, put on some trousers and marched into town to try get a business loan.
I run a web design business. Well, well yeah it is a business. I started it about two months ago, have had about six clients so far.
But I need a new computer and some marketing cash.
HSBC told me that they would need to see three months of trading under a Business Account (I only had a personal account at the time). So I opened one up but was determined to get something today.
So I went over to Natwest, who I have a current account with too. I opened a Business Account with them... Gave the slightly dippy business manager some of my beautifully obsessive ADHD babble-spiel and got a 2k overdraft limit haha.
Not that I'm treating it as a joke, I mean... Now I need to fucking actually work. Make it work. No more messing around.
I'm just feeling slightly smug that I'm 19, walked into a bank and got a 2k business overdraft limit on the spot, in midst of a Worldwide recession haha. I just had to text my mates to rub it in. I feel like Bond. Well... Not Bond, he's a cock. But... Some sort of cliche' smooth operator lmao.
People telling me I'm crazy, won't give me a loan, yada yada. These naysayers admit defeat before they even try. It cost nothing to try. So why not just try. I did try and I won! Haha.
I have an appointment about my ADHD on Dec 10th so hopefully I'll get on meds and get help with my brainbox too.
For once, things are looking up in my life.
