I am not saving. True. Due to budget cuts and salary reduction, high bills, debt, raised a kid alone, now having to travel far as my daughter lives far plus I recently became a victim of a scam (talked in other threads) and lost most of my savings ect etc plus I suck at managing money

But I am a high school teacher with a graduate degree. Pretty sure I don't qualify for food stamps. Haha I am not starving just struggling as most of my colleagues

As about starving most people wouldn't survive if they didn't work as they wouldn't have money to buy food. It is not unique. That's a reason people work: to buy food and roof over their heads and other stuff (it is important to love your job but not the only reason we work) you seem to look at working as something unusual. It is not. Most people work
