Yes, I do have a full-time job, and I even enjoy it, but it doesn’t pay enough to survive in this hellscape of a world we live in. I lack the college degree required to get almost any decent-paying job (plus my last job hunt took MONTHS to get a lead), I don’t have the skills or originality to become an online content creator, nor the artistry or patience to create and sell trinkets on Etsy (plus, that would require an initial investment which I simply do not have). Should I set up a GoFundMe? OnlyFans? I wouldn’t really be offering anything except a charity basket/collection plate so that feels dishonest at best. Idk, I’m quite literally having a breakdown because I’m probably going to lose my car soon, and then my job, and then my apartment, and then my life. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thank you

    Just be careful with Dave Ramsey’s advice. He’s good at getting people on track, but his investment advice sucks and he’s way too obsessed with avoiding debt tools. But if you’re in debt, he’s really motivating.

      Yeah, true. I listened to him on getting out of debt and focusing on that, even though I have very little debt and none of it consumer credit cards.
