It sounds like you are past crisis stage and into survival stage. I have been in crisis stage a couple times but never survival stage.
1. Get a job- ANY job, any pay. If there is a job, apply. Get some stability. We are going into a hard economic time and the longer you wait the harder it will be. If you can get a retail job you might get bonus networking opportunities.
2. Look for a recent law school grad who passed the bar and is trying to get up and running. They often take cases pro-bono and can help keep you out of jail. A lawyer friend of mine used to hang out at a library looking for clients.
3. Your landlord sounds accommodating, leverage their help and square up once you have income. They could be your only lifeline at the moment so preserve that relationship at all costs.
4. Try to get into one of those entry level tech consultanting companies. You will be a star there.
You simply must keep your accommodations and take any crap job you can or it could quickly become impossible to recover.
I’m sorry that I am not in a position to help more. Good luck and now is the time to soldier on.
- jesuscript 4y agoHe isn't accepting survival stage. He wants to make $5200 a month and that's just not survival money. Survival money is something like $500 a month.
- Marsymars 4y agoI’m not an expert, but $500/month seems not much different than $0/month. In either case it’s too little money to not be homeless, and if you’re homeless, there are enough resources to survive by eating/sleeping in shelters without spending any money.
