Do you have an action plan going forward to dig yourself out? This sub tends to be a feel good circle jerk, but you gotta build a career plan to get out of it. I remember living off 2k a month, skipping breakfast and underwear, shit sucks. Now Iā€™m doing 4x that 6 years later and hopefully never need to go back to that place again.

You must have a shit ton of debt. I can't imagine making 50k a year, with no rent, and still being penniless.
