I'll do my best to not make this sound whiney, but it probably will. Please try not to take it as such though.
I have never had a financially stable life, from the time I was born up to this very second. Life is very difficult when you don't earn enough money to pay your bills but you spend 50+ hours a week working your butt off doing mostly physical labor. It makes for exhaustion and mostly negative views about life when you see everyone else getting to have fun and do things they enjoy because somehow they got lucky and got good jobs with seemingly no effort. I know that's not usually the case, and people went to college and all that was a struggle for them to get where they are, but I still see it as them being lucky, because I wasn't afforded the same opportunity.
I have never had the option to attend college because I've always had to work just to sleep indoors and have food. I am still in that situation, and only live in an old, small 5th wheel RV that I can't even use the bathroom in because there's no septic system. It grates on me to know that life could be so much more comfortable, but I'm barred from it and only get to see others having it nice. It really hurts to know I could have it better, but reality says f you, you're gonna suffer in squalor.
A lot of people have told me to shut up and do something about it, but what is there to do? I can't go to college, there's no time or money for it and I have no family left alive who can help me or let me stay with them. It's just me and the dog vs. the world. I could sure use some advice on how to get to a better place in life and stop living in complete poverty.
Sorry if I whined. Just want help and relief from the misery. Gotta get to work now, to earn some table scraps. TIA.
