My husband and I are stuck in Germany and want to come home to the states. We need money!!! Where can we go???
We came over here (Germany) to help my husband sick Uncle with his horse farm. Now that he has recovered from his hip surgery he is making life very miserable for us. We do not have money to ship our household good back to the states and need help monetarily to do so. How can we get enough to ship household goods back to the states and find a place to live until we find jobs and get our first paychecks. We are losing our sanity and if we knew then what we know now we would have NEVER came over to help. Our lives our under constant servalence by them every minute of every day. We have to ask permission to use the car, to mow the yard, to breathe practically, and we are slowly slipping out of our sanity and if we had the money to go back to the states we could gain our sanity and join the rest of the work force in the free-world of the US. If any one knows where we can get that help please let us know. Thanks!

Wow, you word it as if Germany isn't a free country! How did you get to Germany in the first place, it's pretty much the same deal but reverse. (Yes I know, I've moved from many countries back and forth and am about to move back to the states in three months from Holland). I recommend going to the American Consulate. They are there to help you! If shipping seems too expensive the only option is to sell your household goods and start over in the states. I just went through about 20 movers to get the best price for my move and ended up hiring a shipping company. To keep the costs at a minimum I'm packing myself and unloading myself. Keep in mind you do have to have someone load the container for you otherwise your goods are not insurable. Good luck!

-any rich/loving family in the USA? try looking up a phone number for western union and calling them about international transfers. -How about contacting the nearest US embassy? -Say: screw my household items I need to get home, and LEAVE. -Honestly though, it sounds like you aren't really from the states and want to move here.... Which would make things a lot trickier.
