You dont lose until you give up.
Find a good public school district near a bus line and get into the cheapest apartment you can find before the house stuff hits your credit history. Get the highest paying job you can get that is closest to home- I hope its a tech job but if its a service job so be it.
No cable, no smartphone, 1 car with payment Good luck.

#34In 1996, I was a meek, humble loyal worker, had been at Ticketmaster 6 years. God appeared and I quit my job and gave away all my possessions and money, like Jesus said. "If you want to be perfect..."
I have divine intellect. God's temple is a sure thing. Whoever gets in the way is going to be like raider's of the lost ark movie at the end.
God says... C:\TAD\Text\HUCKFINN.TXT
or a minute I didn't say nothing; then I says:
"I'd ruther not TELL you where I put it, Miss Mary Jane, if you don't mind letting me off; but I'll write it for you on a piece of paper, and you can read it along the road to Mr. Lothrop's, if you want to. Do you reckon that 'll do?"
"Oh, yes."
So I wrote: "I put it in the coffin. It was in there when you was crying there, away in the night. I was behind the door, and I was mighty sorry for you, Miss Mary Jane."
It made my eyes water a li

#35Hey, other comments are going to give you a few lines telling you to not quit, that you should hang in there, and that it'll be alright. That may be true, but to me it sounds like you're possibly not doing well enough to make any of that possible, and you probably need to find work fast. Here's what I want to do: 1. I have a little list of companies looking for employees that I'll send you. Not much just companies th…

I have for a while thought of you as (total honesty here) a bullying cock (though talented at what you do), but this comment which is sincere, genuine and offered to someone for whom this could be greatly helpful has made me seriously reconsider. Kudos.

#39Well, tech jobs are pretty easy to come by, especially with no home so you can live wherever the job is. Honestly, I wouldn't want to do a startup if I had kids anyway. I'd rather work a 9-5 with a regular income so I'd have money to take care of them and time after work to be with them and raise them. So this may all be for the best.

Wow... that's a really nice thing to do for one in need. Gotta be your friend Zed!
Zed helped me back when I lived in NYC and was really depressed despite me being a total stranger from the internet.
