I’m in my 30s so I should be used to this by now, but this shit is getting so stressful guys. I have no savings, my checking account is drained every month with rent, and if there’s ever a serious emergency I have no safety net, I’m legitimately fucked. I’m one unplanned expense away from absolute ruin. Those in the same boat as me, how do you deal with this?

      Right? The question was: How do you deal with being broke? And I answered “I got the skills so that I am no longer broke.”

      That’s how you deal with broke-ness in the 21st century. Skills. Same as always.
