I'm an unemployed loser who is in debt. AMA

As some of you know my dad is in the hospital and I want to get my mind off of it, while he is doing better he is still in the ICU..Anyway. Figured I would do a reddit style AMA on how much of a 34 year old loser I am how i messed up my life by making bad choices.

Last year things were good, i was making about 65,500 a year at my job plus benefits, my credit score was 750ish. Fast forward now, this is my account:




Ask me anything and I will answer honestly

You are not leveraging your debt against your assets.

Plus that is nothing compared to your average dumb fuk American who buys Gucci, expensive bimmers, rolex watches on a minimum wage or dead end job.

You are actually doing better then them. Just keep it up.

If you're close to a casino, get a job as a cocktail server there in the meantime. You'll be making at least 300 every day on tips.

It’s not ideal but like others are saying that debt is minuscule.

You look like an aesthetic dude in your avi (no homo), you obviously lift etc.

How tall are you? How did this happen?

I ask the physical questions b/c you’re a white male and not ugly; you really should have absolutely no reason to be in financial despair. What’s your background, experience etc.?

Edit: just saw username is ShortMonster so maybe manlet but that’s still not end of the world

Thats how i look at it atleast. Time is the more valuable asset

the difference is you are conscious of your situation. many people would continue to rack up their CC like it is cash.

Do you have a record? Still dealing with a drug habit? I think I remember you talking about being an alcoholic or such before.

If not, just throw together a nice looking resume and start sending it out to places. You could also look in to getting some sort of training/certificate. Seems to me you just need employment and you can get right back on your feet, that's not so bad.

Ask your bank for a line of credit. If they say no, go to the next bank.

It'd save you at least 10% interest.

Look for freelance gigs?
