I'm confused, are you saying you need money? Do you want us to make an appeal?

Do you live at home, in Yeshiva?

Don't you have any other phones around that you could use?

Do you have a rebbe or friend (adult) who knows about your struggle and who would be happy to let you use his phone for that?

No.

You don't leave us very much room for suggestions if there are no other phones around. How do you want to call in, with a "sandwich maker" (like I had in Yeshiva)?   :-\

I have a Verizon plan that has a "Friends and Family" feature, in which you can enter up to 10 numbers that won't count towards your minutes.  If you have a plan with Verizon, maybe your father can look into that.  You can explain that you like to listen to Shiurim over the phone.

The other choice is to find yourself a prepaid phone plan and pay for it yourself - is that an option?

Not sure - see if you can do it with cash.

Baruch Hashem I think Boruch helped me find a solution. Might cost me some significant money, but recovery is priceless. Dont think ill be able to make it to the call tommorrow though because i can only get the phone on Friday and I cant call in anymore on my regular phone (ive already used 180 of the 700 minutes in the plan and the cycle started 2 days ago!!!!! ???) have a great day all.

Here's a great quote I just saw from an anonymous author:

"The important thing about a problem is not its solution, but the strength we gain in finding the solution"

Great quote for us but I would change problem with "challenge" or "issue" (thats for you Duvid Chaim). so lets read it:

"The important thing about a challenge is not its solution, but the strength we gain in finding the solution"

Hope everyone is having a great day cause I am!!

I just found out  a very interesting fact, today is the 40th anniversary of the first time internet was used. On Octoboer 29th 1969 a UCLA professor sent a message from his computer to a friend.I think it is no coincidence that I am fasting today. Yes today is behab, but also the day the ever so infamous internet was invented. I guess its kind of ironic thaat i bash the internet, yet the very thing that carried me to the depths of of the earth, will also bring me up. Just a quick thought I had.

Hey all,

Guten Erev Shabbos. Another day in the books, but not really counting how many that is. Maybe 5 or 6. Again Im going with the idea of not counting the days but making the days count. I joined Boruch's phone group last night and its very interesting because its completely different than Duvid Chaim's. Here's my dilemna. I can pay money and get a prepaid phone in order to continue to attend Duvid Chaim's group, but there wil probably be days when I cant attend. Or I can do Boruch's group only which I can do for free beecauase (its only at nights). What should I do? Keep in my mind I will not be able to make it to Duvid Chaim's every day and I would have to pay some money in order to buy a sperate phone for his group. Thanks all.

Boruch's group sounds like a reasonable option.  How many times a week is it?
