Never went to college. Have GED. Live with parents rent free. Struggled with depression and blew most of my money on alcohol/cigarettes/concerts/anything I could to fill the void of working 50+ hours a week.
I have no bills, except my phone, car insurance/gas. I buy my own food but mostly eat out.
Trying to cut out alcohol and cigarettes.
I just started a new job at the same company I’ve been at 4 years. I work for a drink distributor in sales, and make 19.70 per hour with little hope for a raise. 40 hours per week now.
I have about $8k saved. Lost $3k to crypto.
I have a car that feels very overdue for a lot of repairs and 250k miles on it.
I have like 5k in retirement.
Don’t know what to do. Rent is high here in Washington, $1k for a studio.
I have lived in the same house with my parents since is was born, and it’s making me depressed. All 3 sisters went to college got real jobs and left years ago. I feel like a child. But I feel like it’s a mistake to move out cause I’d be saving even less and be stuck working a crap job just to go home to a crap apartment. In the same city.
There’s nothing I really want.
Even if I had a big house and everything I feel like I’d just go home to it and be like... so this is it...
I’m debt free and my credit score is 760
What would you do if you were in my position
