I feel like a fuck up. I wasted my early to mid twenties in a depressed state with nothing to show for it. Fast forward to now the only thing I have that is worth any money is my 2019 Subaru wrx which I only owe like 10k on. Realistically I could sell it and maybe get 12 to 14k out of it but I rather not if I don't have to. It's brand new with 15k miles which wouldn't make sense to sell it for a used car which may come with problems when I'm almost done paying it off but if I need to I would.
I lost my full time job, my sanity and my savings all in the last 2 months. Litteraly got 4$ in my bank account with a maxed out credit card. I'm holding off till Thursday for a paycheck from a new job that only hired me seasonal but pays 17$ an hour due to covid. The hours they give are shit but its better than nothing as of right now.
I don't have a college education I dropped out and maxed out the units for financial aid. Failed majority of my classes so I can't afford to go back and even so school doesn't seem like it's for me.
Ex-girlfriend is keeping the kid and it's mine paternity test verified it. She's a little over 3 months pregnant. No communication or chances of us working together and yes I'm an idiot for not using protection and relying on birth control but that's besides the point. I'm 29 and she's 21 and I'm not the smartest guy around at least book smart. It's why I want to pick up a trade but I don't know how and where to start. I live in California and I want to work on being an electrician but literally with no money I don't know what to do. I don't mind hard work I had to bust my ass to get out of the state I was in to the life I led prior to meeting her which made everything spiral back down.
My expenses are
Rent-500$ Car insurance 266$ Car payment 320$ Phone bill 110$ Internet/cable 120 (I plan on cutting it once I catch up on payments) Gas-100 to 150$ a month Food - like 200$ a month
Maybe 1500 to 1700$ a month in expenses
