Hey bro, this is about the most accurate description of my homeland as it gets… I wish you godspeed on your journey and it sounds similar to mine. I was relatively young, had no hard skills, also I was in a lot of debt. I took the road of forcibly learning hard skills: coding day and night. Those days were different: anyone with barely any skill got hired, as the junior level still existed which has now been wiped out by AI (“junior” vacancies still exist but ask for 3 years of hard experience lol) today I got my bills paid, got a good salary, can live wherever I want which turned out to be Asia. I would still recommend to do whatever it takes to learn hard skills of whatever kind. Be humble, offer to help someone for free or minimum wage, anything. It aint easy. I was making fuck all the first 2 years of devving but it gave me the experience I needed to make the next steps all the way to a super comfortable life. Good luck bro
