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 replying to my own to add: I couldn’t spare much but I can spot you the price of a month of ChatGPT premium. I know it’s a weird solution, but it’s a useful tool for doing lots of exploration fast (“Find me a charity that helps with car payments”) and for thinking when your mind is not at its best. I had it help me make a plan for dealing with mold last summer, because I couldn’t think straight.

    Not sure how to do that securely though - me covering the OpenAI subscription for you. They don’t have any kind of gift option.

    If you’re interested reply and either upvote or downvote this comment (that gets my attention since I don’t read my inbox) and then we’ll figure out a way.
