What's the smartest way to ask for a raise? I believe I deserve it, but I've never done this before. Should I wait for them to initiate it or is "don’t ask, don’t get" really important here?

Depends on where you work and why you think you deserve it. Can you clearly articulate the contributions you’ve made to your team/client/firm? In general it’s fine to ask, but you should come to that meeting prepared with legit supporting evidence for the ask.

Have an acquaintance who is a single mom; she purchased a used car 3 mos ago. Six wks later her 17yo wrecked it, air bags deployed, and estimates have ranged between $10-$18k in needed repairs while $21k is still owed. Acquaintance was switching insurance policies and flubbed the coverage dates and there were a few days where the vehicle was uninsured. No GAP insurance. I'm not seeing many options for her besides to continue pmts, fixing just enough to drive or voluntary repo. Thoughts?
