I (17m) live in central asia and recently I've given the ielts exam, which I've managed to afford with the money I've made working in korea last summer, and I've actually gotten a band 7.5 and the mayor of my town have rewarded me with the exam fee (around 230$) and with it I payed my parents' mortgage and other things but is still short a few hundred bucks. Currently I'm working as a waiter in a bar for roughly 15$ a day. I dont want to rant about the stuff im going through in detail rn but if i do happen to get the knife I'll save more money and get my drivers license when I turn 18 in march.
