It takes me places that I need to get to and I'd rather use it to get some more money on the side, especially since it's almost paid off. I used to do it and everything took at least an hour longer. If I were in SF I'd get rid of it in a heartbeat but where I live I find it impossible to get anything done without a car. Outside of hanging out with people it's really the only thing I look forward to.ĬAR: I think it would be absolutely stupid to get rid of it. I'm willing to cut out everything but AMC - my date and I are super avid movie buffs and I watch 3 movies a week on a consistent basis, and I don't buy anything from concessions. SUBSCRIPTIONS: I have cancelled all of the subscriptions I can think of except what is noted above. I'd rather cut my expenses somewhere else, and I can probably get someone to move in with me by March after I donate / sell just about everything I don't need (a laptop, some books, and basic cookware is all I absolutely require). RENT: I live in the South Bay in a rent controlled area so moving isn't particularly the best option for me. I'll try to acknowledge comments individually now that I'm awake. Also u/ironicosity - I was just sleeping (I posted this and went to bed at 2:30am or later), so I'm sorry I didn't partake in the discussion until now. The amount of support makes me feel like this is not an unsurmountable challenge, which is the best I can ask for at this point. it's 9:15am and I just woke up to shitloads of comments! I'm completely overwhelmed by the support and response, and it will take me some time to grok everything. Also I feel like nobody would want to be with me (I started seeing someone and I care for them a lot), which is why planning for my future is now the only thing I care about.ĮDIT. If that's the case I hope a repost won't have horrible consequences :). I'm so depressed financially it feels like my post is going to sink the bottom and never get any real / substantial help in planning for my future. It feels like what I need is the help of a financial planner but I can't afford one, clearly. My car is a 2 seater Miata so I can't Lyft/Uber. I know need a side hustle and the only one I can think of is being a Doordash / Uber food delivery person (or take up a job on the weekends or both? I don't know where I can find weekend only gigs though). I started reading the book 'Your money or your life' and a book title has never hit me harder. It's such a vicious cycle that I can't take it anymore. Which makes me feel immature for feeling that way, and that makes me more depressed. I can't talk to my friends about it because this is WAY too embarrassing (and I have this one friend who sometimes tells me he has a problem, which is having too much money and not knowing what to do with it - I told him to go enjoy life - which is the kindest way I can tell him to go fuck right off - and then I feel depressed and miserable that I'm in this situation). Maybe a burn down chart? How do I even budget?! I'm so lost and confused, and blaming myself heavily for doing this to myself.

Ideally something I can check on a daily basis to make sure I don't stray off my track.

What I would like is a game plan to get me out of this hole. I'm pretty much left with ~500 after setting aside $250 for food. My income is ~5500 a month after taxes (and maxing out my 18K of retirement - which I only did at the beginning of this year when I turned 30). Here is what I owe (not counting student loans, which is ~20K): What better Xmas gift for myself other than a nice big dose of financial responsibility? Unfortunately comedy isn't the trade I ply, so it won't feed me or pay my bills. I have a sense of humor about these things, so I've got that going for me, which is nice. I've botched it as supremely as Da Vinci drew Mona Lisa. Now that I want to plan for my future, I'm absolutely freaking out internally (as I should be) because of how supremely I've fucked myself over. I've spent money willy nilly for almost 8 years straight.

The last picture shows my attempt to measure the dead period between to bursts. So I edited the picture to make it appear more clearly. Which is not so easy to capture and measure with my analog scope. The signal comes in bursts of about 5.4 ms every 265 ms. So i might as well turn on my bluetooth by hand rather than unlocking my screen and then put it on that NFC tag that I don’t have in my car. So I guess if you buy some of these cheap NFC tags, you need to unlock the phone and then put it on top. The signal disappears when I turn off the display and reappears when I unlock the phone. That calculates to a frequency of about 14.5 Mhz (OK. And I get about 8.6 devisions per wavelength.
