Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By djkest: I am going to quote this because I think he did a great job of summarizing the situation. Married? Have kids? If the answer is no to both, you might be able to move around a bit to find better employment. What are your skills, what are your passions? Not married, no kids. I've done work as a painter, landscaper and laborer. I got hurt some years back that made doing that work not possible. It's taken years to be about 80 percent, I powerlift and have even started running recently but doubt I'd last a full day crawling on my hands and knees or hanging off a ladder. None of those jobs paid well anyway, at least at the places I worked. I don't have any passions. I'm far too defeated and depressed for that shit. |

That last line is easily perceived by the outside world. Find some enthusiasm for life and for your current employment. That enthusiasm will become perceived by the outside world. That can lead to opportunities in itself...
Start hawking things thru Ebay and Amazon. Find stuff at local garage sales or used stores. Refinish furniture and resell. Tons of ways to improve your situation. Don't invest in other peoples pyramid schemes though. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MAbowhunter: Not married . . . Well, there's your problem. I realize this won't be a popular opinion, but having two incomes in the family would make a big difference. I recommend you marry a rich woman. |

Do you have any skills you could put on your resume for Eversource? Working for them is a golden ticket. They often post some low level jobs, but once you're in you can get the training to move on to higher paying gigs. Can't hurt to apply for high school level jobs.
It's impossible to pass on resumes for people, I've tried. I would help you out if I could. They also have a associates degree school at Bunker High that is pretty much a garauntee to get in if you complete it. |

OP, here's one of the most thorough personal finance flowcharts I've seen. Hopefully the image comes through clearly enough.
