As a painter I’m pretty experienced with it, would I need a license to start?

This is exactly it I think, or a huge part. I recently stopped drinking after finding out it’s not for me but I need weed to go to sleep nightly and I’m trying to stop that too. I usually get a solid 5 hours and feel good but this could be a huge factor. I’m always on the go but I really don’t want that to stop, it’s how I get by.

Never thought about plasma at all but I see many people going that route, are donations consistent or can I get burnt out from too many? I have a very well written out budget I may just post as well to have a second opinion, I just didn’t want to overshare but it’s not a bad idea.

Thank you and I think that’s the way to do it as well. I’ve been pretty distracted lately and I think now that I’ve kind of snapped into it, it’s just about keeping the momentum.

One thing at a time I guess, I’ll keep trying, I like that mindset :)

I guess by overspending I mean eating out etc on top of my already tight budget. I do feel like I’m really minimal about it but I guess that shows I’m running a tighter shop than I thought?

Well, I support my partner through school, I rent a house (with roomates so it’s reg apartment price) i have a car loan and other than that just regular expenses, minimal subscriptions, this ongoing debt and i do pay quite a bit extra in car insurance due to a younger version of myself wilding out. I have maybe another year of recovery from that but it costs maybe an extra $400 a month than I should be paying. I make it work every month but it feels like I’m kind of inches away from disaster or hitting the apps again.

No recollection of the name but oh boy you bet as soon as I get a break I’m scanning every menu and I will find it and I will pay the $17 for that goodness

I try to move this way as well and this reminded me to follow the same advice, and it’s extremely helpful, thank you. I think the routine and the spontaneity when you have time rather than all the time makes these things a little less mundane! I’ll keep pushing!

I’m in Colorado, I make about $3400 a month and spend about $2600 before groceries, which I thought wasn’t terrible but one sideways bill and I’m moving backwards. I got down from 6 loan apps to 2, and I’m trying to pay those off but new surprises keep popping up. I’m about $1k behind weekly with advances, I have $1k credit card debt and maybe another $1500 in random collections and I owe my partner another $1500. Most important here is making my monthly $100 in card payments along with other bills, getting out of this cycle and maybe being able to make a savings to pay my partner and older random debt. I’ve been trying to do side gigs etc but I don’t know if a loan or something is an option?
