Likely a failed wheel bearing. And NO, you can’t continue to drive on it until you get some more money. Sorry. ---

Does it pull when braking or just coasting? ---

Could be the wheel bearing or a broken tie rod. Look under the front end, if a tie rod end broke, the tie rod will be hanging down. ---

Car and trucks don’t care if you have any money, they just break and need repair anyway. Especially when they are 35 years old. I hope you parked it at a shop and got a ride home. ---

Check to be sure all the lug nuts are present and accounted for and that they are all properly tightened down…
