Wake up at 5am to be there at 6-6:30am to push concrete around. Once winter came I was laid off and I got a job slaving away at dairy queen for minimum wage. It sucks being broke all the time but at least I can sleep a bit more and I don't have to hurt my back

Shut the fuck up, the minimum wage is like 7 bucks. Its not like you have to pay for rent or any of that shit. You can easily pay off the debt (in what? only a fucking month?) and then fuck off into the real world apartment

>Live with your parents
What excuse do you have not to pay off your debt? Assuming you only see around 75% of your earnings net pay, that means you have around $1400 a month to spend. Assuming you give your parents a generous $500 a month for rent, that's still $900. Even if you assume you spend $100 on gas a month that's still $800. You could easily pay off your debt in 7 months if you stop buying shit you don't need under those generous assumptions.
If you don't pay rent at all then how the fuck are you still in debt?

In that case you're a retard for going into a science major when the sorts of jobs you're looking for will want an engineer.

I've always heard Biology has shitty prospects but I never looked into it. Meanwhile people who want to do something with cosmology or physics are going to find shitty research positions and MAYBE a tenure if they're good enough.
>>
>>24383176
Biology isn't moneymoneymoney but its very flexible and has so many job opportunities outside of academia. The average salary is very low for a bachelors though because research interns for a Uni get compensated in other ways. Also I don't have to compete with Pravjeet the IT guy who will work for pennies. Chem majors have similar opportunities. I feel for the mathematical STEM majors though.

So what you're actually saying is that you weren't intelligent/motivated enough to get a technical degree, so after you realized you fucked up you decided it'd be easier to handle if you shifted the blame onto the schooling institution.

That literally the only bonus to living in Aus, a high school dropout who was fired from his last job like me can get factory work making $29/hour with 6 hours OT a week just by being able to pass a drug test.

Not him but it's a lot easier than trying to deal with 31k of debt. He can either kill his credit for 7 years or ruin his credit for life.
>>
>>24386084
>What good is $200k going to do when you never have time to do anything with it?

When you retire at the age of 45 and spend time raising your family, like my uncle is doing right now.
>>
>>24386106

m8 $29 AUD is like $20.63 and shit is twice as expensive there, so that's really like $10.32

You could pay that debt off in like 3 months man. Then start saving up a bit and think about going to trade school or something since you already have some manual labor experience under your belt. If you'd rather have an office job look into getting a few certs, after you have those you should be able to find something equal to or better than what you currently have, especially if you have money saved up to relocate.

What are you even complaining about you have a better job than most of the country, barely any debt compared to most people, and you live with your fucking parents so you have no bills. Get over yourself retard.

THIS JUST IN:

BEING A MISERABLE SHUT-IN IS THE MEANING OF LIFE
>>
>>24386140
I don't think I'd be willing to give up 30 years of my life just so I don't have to work my last 20. I only get to be young once while the rest of my life will be me waiting to die. Free time is the single most important factor in a job.
>>
>>24386148
Any recommendations for what certs I should look into? I worked in an IT internship at my university when I attended.

well, yes, except for the "miserable" part you added for some reason

Illegal immigrants. If they weren't here they'd actually have to pay these people what their job is worth.

When you compare it to other countries, of course it's shit.

rent = $400
fuel = $35~
food = $60

You've now got $550 a week left over outside of bills every three months.

And this is why you will amount to nothing my friend.

Sorry you had to settle for the accrual job. Just remember that you could have been an engineer or scientist and had an actual fulfilling career that you'd WANT to keep doing until you're too old to work.
>>
>>24386365
>rent = $400
where are you living?
maybe a one bedroom apartment in an inner-city sydney or melbourne suburb, or sydney's north shore
anywhere else it's more like $200 or less for a rented room

$60 on food a week is a lot too
>>
>>24386365
>rent = $400
Is this AUD or USD? That's cheap here where I live in the US and I live in a low population state, so it's higher everywhere else.
>fuel = $35~
That's cheap too.
>food = $60
Again, pretty cheap if you aren't being frugal.
Is that really all you have to pay in Australia?

I bumped the rent up a lot so there could be no complaints, but renting this is $260/week.

The fuel being $35 was essentially only driving to and from work with a trip to the shop maybe twice during the week.

And you're arguing on his behalf. That means you are defending slave-tier work just to say you're "successful".

If he works in NYC there's no way he's making 200k+ a year AND working only 9 hours a day unless he's already an MD in a big finance firm.
Having said that, that's extremely good for him because I make just a little over half that and work about the same hours and sometimes more
>>
>>24386570
Nevermind then. You Aussies have it really good.

>$170 a month on gas just going to the store and work

$15 ain't much senpai. Do you have a car note? Insurance? Utilities? Aim higher.
>>
>>24386570
nice, yeah i pay like $270 a week for an apartment in ultimo, literally on the fringe of the city so can't complain
means i spend nothing on gas, and public transport tops out after 7 trips, so i only spend about ~$15 a week

The fact that I don't have any connections in any foreign country, no family, no friends.

I don't even know what you're referring to here. An associate degree?

They loved me so much that I've been living with my Grandparents most of my life. Right.

Take "miserable" out and you'd be right.
Why the fuck would anyone want a family? Whenever I see families, they're always unhappy and stressed beyond belief.
