Guys this has been going on for 5 years now. some of you already know my story. I have no money left. I haven't had food in my house in days. I only buy food for the kids when they are over. for me it has been mostly noodles, salads. fruits so I can stay afloat and pay the bills.

My day job is decent, I make about 60k. I have a master, but my field have been dying for many years and jobs were hard to find. and no it got worst with Ai and automation. it killed it.

I need a 2nd job, but I am worried if I take something temporary, she will increase my CS and I would be stuck with a higher CS for few years before I can change it.

I know people here, either 1. dealt with it and have a solution to manage. or are just so fucking smart and they know how to make banks. either advise is welcome.

I think my options are either work at some store for very low wage and get paid in cash, or do door dash, Uber after work hours. I work during the day so I can't take another job.

I am really struggling guys, idk about starting business or anything like that. I sold all my 401k and now at 40. i have nothing. idk if it was wise to sell my 401k, but I hit rock bottom and didn't have many options.
