I started out my teenage years pretty rough, and got into drugs pretty heavy after my father passed away. Picked up a couple misdemeanor charges drug wise, but no felonies. After battling depression for years and getting clean (4 years), I'm stuck at a crossroad at the moment. Time has flown by and I'm now 28 years old, working at a carwash. I make 11/hr. plus commission for selling extra services. Roughly 27-35k a year, but I know I'm better than this and constantly battle with the thought of going back to school. My question is, with my drug misdemeanor charges, wouldn't I be held back for many of the careers in the world simply because I have a drug charge? I'm tired of busting my ass for so little, but I don't want to invest my time into a college degree just to be held back. I have a wife and two children, and i just want to have a better safety net for our future. I live frugal, but would like to live frugal while having the choice to invest for our future as well..
