>one chance at life>dumb 28 yo high school drop out working at warehouses>gf is 26 and works as a receptionist HOLY FUCK, HOW THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO START A FAMILY LIKE THIS? We barely make 90k combined.
>>84166598By doing it anyways. Poorer than you do it all the time, and they never let their financial circumstances stop them, so why should it stop you?
>>84166598the US government pretty much raises your child for you. There's no excuse.
>One chance at life>Healthy, in your 20's with a gf that loves youWhat the fuck anon lmao, pearls before swine truly
>>84166668fuck love nigga I need bread
>>84166809I know people who are raising 2 kids on 72k combined income.
Honestly, you're doing great bro, keep it up. I recommend finding time to get your ged, then maybe apply to trade school to work better jobs before starting a family. You got this, man. You're winning way more than most of us at life. And we're proud of you.
retard blackcoded normalfag you are literally at the median US salary for your age plz rope there's nothing to complain about
>>84166598>We barely make 90k combined.>barelyI could own 3 (shitty) homes and a condo with that much money where I live. You must be horrible with finances.Yes, I'm American.
>>84166858Not OP but I make 60k, live with my parents and only pay $500 in rent and I'm barely surviving. I'd need at least 100k to live decently comfortably.
>>84166598Have you considered investing in low risk stocks and getting some training at your local community college? You know you could become a brick layer, hvac technician, welder, construction worker, etc with minimal effort right? There are also warehouse and factory jobs that pay well. If you're making over 18$ an hour and your gf also has a job then you're probably fine. If you have trouble understanding how to manage your finances then use youtube and google. You can learn most of that stuff in an afternoon.
>>84166999is life really that serious bro? autism?
>>84166598Well try to think about the positives. At least you have someone, you are not lonely, you have a partner with whom you are sharing all these burdens and who helps you with income. It could always be worseI'm a highschool dropout after 2 years myself, but because i was finally diagnosed with my severe mental illness and put on disability. I get a couple hundred bucks at best in disability checks, but i can't really work. The only reason i'm not homeless and have food, access to my pc, a cozy bed and all the other stuff i have, is because my Dad is my saviour and takes care of me and only takes very little money from me as "rent", but he cooks and buys groceries and everything, so i doubt it even covers much of it, plus all the effort he puts into me. I wish i could have a boyfriend, but i can't ever have one, nor can i have friends or expand my life past being a NEET stuck in my room 99% of my life hiding away from people because i can't handle existing.It could always be worse. Hope that makes you feel better.
>>84166958How is that possible? What are you wasting your money on
>>84166958im in the same situation, make about as much as you, pay about as much as you, not including gas, and i have $30k saved over 7 months while still being comfystop oneshotting your paycheck on stupid shit
