Money itself is meaningless to me, despite the fact that I tent to talk about money more often than I should in life. All I want is the freedom to be able to do things that I enjoy in life. I love things like video games, technology, and learning how things work. I also want to learn how to make DIY projects with a 3d printer as well and I plan on becoming a member of my local Hackerthon (a paid membership based community that gives you access to tools that you need to make DIY projects and people to help you) when my schedule frees up a bit. I want the freedom to be able to dabble in my creative interests and do things that I'm passionate about and if I can't have these things, I would rather die.
In my mind, I am fighting for my happiness and a fair chance at healing and enjoying life. I know that the only way I will ever be anything even remotely close to happy is if I am able to live my life to my fullest potential; something that I cannot do working a regular job. Don't get me wrong, I will work a regular job only as long as I need to in order to achieve my goals. However, once I have what I want in life, I am never working a regular job again even if I make less money and have to downsize my living expenses a bit.
So yeah, as I gain more knowledge, I wouldn't mind helping you. In fact, I plan on becoming a mentor of sorts to people on PC in the future as I become more knowledgeable and successful because I know that there is a lot of people here that struggle because of poor finances and struggle to obtain or hold a decent job so I consider my growing skillset an asset here.

That is great that you know exactly what you want and are going after it. Sometimes, perhaps even often times, we have to fight for our happiness, and it is WELL worth the effort. Again, big kudos to you for all your efforts and aspirations! And that is really nice you want to help others here on PC who may need it.
