I am a 21 year old guy, and i have almost completely given up on trying to do anything with my life. Why, you might ask let me explain to you. My mother is a fucking crazy bitch who has such bad anxiety she can not for her life think logically. I have been searching for a job for three months now. I took a break from school, so that i can find a good paying job to support myself on. My mothers idea of a good paying job is, to work a minimum wage job at full time. Now lets see here, at $7.00/hr that averages out to $1,120 before taxes are taken out, and around $900 after. She says that is plenty of money to live off of. Well lets do some maths kids. My father wants me to pick up my car and insurance at roughly $600 a month. Well there goes um 2/3 of my earnings. That leaves me with $300. Well the cheapest place i can find is around $200-$300. If I find a place at $200 that leaves me with $100. Here is the choice now, that is $100 for food, or electricity. Which to choose? Well food is obviously a necessity, but electricity is required for cooking said food. The only advice/help i get from my parents is that I should keep my chin up, and it will all work out. Now, I understand i would have to work 2 full times jobs to make enough to live off of. Problem is that i dont care who you are, but working 80 hours to make $1800 is not even remotely worth it. The kid the raised has more of logical thought process than the people who birthed him. This is so fucking stupid, good thing amazon.com has a good price on a noose, stool, and ceiling fan.

Hey buddy-
First of all, are you sure that you want to quit school? Because if you were the least bit interested in what you were studying AND if it was something that was going to earn you a SKILL and sustainable INCOME- then my advice would be to continue with your education. However, if you were just taking classes- to get a degree, just for the "degree" sake, then I would advise you to find a better paying job. In either situation, it's going to take some work. Obviously, don't quit your current job, until you have found employment elsewhere. You're mom is probably just concerned about you finding work. She probably doesn't realize that the cost of living has skyrocketed and everything with the EXCEPTION of your paycheck has INCREASED! Trust me, it's the age difference. In anycase, be patient with the RENTS. You're lucky to have parents- who actually care about you. Some of the posts I've read on here, well, they are pretty darn sad. They have NOBODY. Not even stupid parents!
So kid- my two cent advice is this: Find something you're good at. Get really good at it. Develop your skill so that you'll have job security. Otherwise, you're gonna end up just like me- 40, with a useless college degree, working slightly above minimum wage, kicking myself because I should've studied another career path- with a concrete SKILL. Now I'm stuck. You don't want to be like me. Stuck at a dead end job- later in life..
Best of luck!

Good day chap!! Don't drop out of school or you will be having to shuvel brown trouts of of the doorsteps of wankers just like you for 8 shilligs an hour for the rest of your life. As for the ladybits, just go down the corner and plop down a quid for a good time, trust me it is cheaper than a girlfriend. Dont be such a jamrag, dont give up, you slag!

Would you like some cheese with that whine? HOLY SHIT you're a crybaby assmuncher. Here's a thought, get rid of your fucking $600 a month car/insurance, and buy a goddamn hoopty you silly mother fucker. For 600 bucks you could find a car that'll get you from here to there for about a year before it burns up and you have to leave it behind Johnny Quik so some bums can live in it. You don't even need to put insurance on it other than the pissant liability which would cost you about 30 bucks a month.

So, now you have $570 extra per month, right? A fucktard like you would have no life anyway, so what do you need extra money for? You could get 2 meth whore skeezy blowjobs a week at 25 bucks a pop and you'd be right as rain! I think the ones with no teeth would work out pretty good for you.

I think your mom is right though...you are definitely a mancunt who needs to get the fuck out of their house.

I empathize with you but at the same time you seem to have a bit of a victims complex. First of all, about the car and insurance - do you really need the car? Can you not take a bus? if you absolutely DO need a car, geta cheaper one and get bare-boned insurance. You should not be paying $600/month for the two.

Other than that, I agree with what "Cursed" said about quitting school. If you were to stay in school, is it likely that you would actually graduate, and graduate with a degree in something that will lead to a decent income? If so, it's almost certainly better to accure the student debt now and stay in school.

Evening from the UK. Give up? Is it getting a bit tough? Oh dear. Welcome to the real world. Do you want to make real money? Get qualified or work for yourself - most end up doing both.

You're clearly not that smart if you're going to drop out of school to make $7 per hr. What you need to do is stay in school AND work full time. That's what you call life. It's not your parents fault that you can only get a job a making $7 per hour. That $600 per month is probably needed by your father to pay silly things like the mortgage, utilities, pay his own car & insurance so he can keep going to work to put a roof over your head, put food on the table, etc. Clearly you can't afford to leave your parents home anytime soon. You should work, go to school and hopefully by the time you graduate you'll be able to get a job decent enough to move out and support yourself. Until then, suck it up.
