I’m 22, going into 23 in only 4 months time… and I’m flat broke. I need to turn my life around before I fuck up everything and end up beyond redemption. How do I turn my life around and actually escape this humiliating state of poverty. Im looking for a ticket out of brokeville. So far, here is what I’ve been doing

  • got a roommate
  • eat rice, beans, and boiled chicken
  • cold showers to save on heat
  • no AC or heat
  • use same clothes over and over even if ripped and raggedy
  • don’t ever eat out or do anything

    Become an electrician or something? America is suburbs forever and people need electricians so they don't burn their $500k nest eggs down.

      Yeah honestly this is your best bet. You'll be union and they'll train you/help get certs. It's working outside in inclement weather, because that's when you're needed most, but it pays fat stacks and you'll learn a shit ton.

      Lol depending on what OP means by “quick,” I don’t think learning how to become an electrician will be helpful in the short term.
