So I've come to the following conclusions.
1. I barely make enough money to be able to move out.
2. I'll never be able to go back to school.
3. I will most likely never be able to survive on my own.
to elaborate:
1. I make 7.50 an hour but I work 32 hours a week. I used to work 40. This has the same effect of reducing my income by 20% or to 6.00 an hour full time.
2. College, or profesional education to be more specific I am told will help my future. They told this lie to me about undergrad and that absolutely has not helped me a dime. So why go to graduate school? I dislike most subjects including what I majored in to get my degree, I don't see how a liberal arts masters degree is going to help a damn. Not to mention post-graduate work is a sham to get you to blow even more money on graduate work an din the end provide you with what? A utterly useless piece of paper, again! Sure I can go for personal enlightenment. But there is hope, my real motivation to go is to get out in the world see new places, and meet a nice woman but we all know that is just wishful thinking.
3. Ah so yes 6 dollars an hour doesn't cut it. And 200 a month student loans doesn't cut it either. Thanks Purdue. To surive on my own I need to have the following and make the following payments. I won't even include a car.
A home (rent: 500 a month)
Utilities (100 a month)
Food (100 a month)
Internet (20 a month)
Loans (200 a month)
Other Shit (80 a month)
So that makes it 1000 a month net I have to make after all taxes. So I wold have to make in any large city 12 to 20 an hour to be able to live. Of course this will mostly likely be alone and at a McJob and I know mcjobs don't pay that high. Everyone who reads this who has a career a life in a big city, has stuff to do, loved ones, should consider themself fortunate. Do I see any future in my life, no. Is there enough motivation to move out? Yes. Will it definately happen anytme soon....

It will get better, opportunities will arise if you just look for them.
