Thank you all so much. I greatly appreciate all of your advice. I talked to my guy, and we worked out an arrangement, I will give him 10% of what i owe each week for the next 13 weeks. So i have to pay 30% interest over the next 13 weeks. This seemed to me to be a very fair deal. Also, I am working part time at a butcher shop. I will be able to get through this thanks to all of you and your advice which helped me work up the courage to explain my situation to my bookie. After 3 weeks of payment my account will open, but with a limit. Once i loose a certain amount in a week, my account will close for the rest of the week, as per my request. And believe me, the limit is not very big.
Thank you all very much, I could not have done it without you,

Kid, paying 30% interest on the money you owe the bookie is NOT a good deal. hno:
You should've gone to your uncles to pay off the entire balance with 0% interest.
You're a lost soul. Hopeless. Good luck to you.
