if I were you, I'd try to do something attainable. if your job is shyt, try getting a job you can qualify for like working at costco. they pay a liveable wage, the warehouses are closed for holidays and close at 8:30 on regular days, and they have really good benefits.

all the folks I see at my local costco have all been working there for a long time, so it must be a decent place to work.

straight up, this dude is giving you some real advice...

i worked at costco for like 4 months... and honestly, i could do that for life....

bruh match.com is blowing up for people like you.... you just need to find an average woman 35 or so... with probably a couple issues... and try and build with her....

i would honestly go to a department/grocery store... if you work hard u could be a manager in 5 years....

41 is not that bad at all.... there is sitll hope

Would you kill yourself?

I'm 41, no kids, low paying job, for profit school education..

Would you kill yourself?

I'm on academic deferment so I have to pay out of pocket.

So Seriously would you just kill yourself?

I see lot of brehs have problems, I have the worst, I'm just no happy and I'm greying up fast due to unhappiness.

So why bother

I need hope, something to look forward too, even at my age, I think I need a mentor or a plan. I'm in a tough bind, depressed like hell.
Stories like yours are exactly why I need to stop bullshytting and settle down.

Life is too hard out here to be a Black man without a foundation.

Trucking may be your salvation, man. Seriously.

Have you tried Uber? If you are in a city area...

Non lonely driving job, want to meet people and get a clue on where all the poppin activities are in your town/city. Can drive when you want so if feeling sick, can stop for the day.

Now with Uber you gonna need a 2nd income, not tryna lie to you. Or you gonna be working all day.

And then with females, have you tried dating apps?

Yeah. Both my answers are new age tech, phone, stuff. Have to keep up with the times. I'm 37, so closer in age to you than many on the site. I do Uber on the side, and I met my wifey on OKcupid.

I got payments though, I drove a 10 Honda Accord. I don't want to put much miles on it honestly.

He probably went to a school like the University of Phoenix, or that school Lil Romeo promotes. They only care about recruiting students and getting as much federal aid out of them as possible.

www.keiseruniversity.edu or just Google it.

At our age 35+. I wouldn't advise schools. Why get student loans at 40+. Either the free online classes, or self employment.

owe 31k right now to Keiser originally owned 25, deferred it for years trying to get it cancelled but of course no luck.

if he does uber, that would be good because he already has a full time gig. uber would give him more discretionary income which would allow him to pull more hoes cuz he'd have more cash.

I'm not that good right now with chick's but I think I'm just depressed all the damn time. also I got greys I don't look young.

do you have a sick car though?

Honda Accord.

honestly I was just gonna move to Jacksonville, work anything and just chill. what ever happens happens. if I'm alone or married it's whatever cuz no one knows me up there and the cost of living is cheaper. boring but fukk it. that's where I'm going this weekend to look around.

probably do some hustle and as long as I csn afford my little rent and car fukk with those country ghetto chick's and call it a day.

Trucking aint that bad costwise to get into. For cost, looked up Roadmaster school in my area. (Tampa).

If that is your interest

trucking is cool ,but he'd have to spend money to take classes to get a CDL.

if he join uber, as long as he got a whip, license and insurance, he could be making money by the weekend.

Stop making excuses and trying to take an easy way out. "You're like the beer Kane dropped in Menace, 40 and Broke."

Forget that IT because it's a global competition and companies won't pay shyt. Your first job will most likely be tech support making 35k then you have to pay rent, bills and transportation back and forth to work. You will barely have enough to save at the end of the month if you're lucky. If you were younger, I would tell you to get into the military and stack your money, but the next best option for any man without a family or kids to worry about is trucking.

Getting a CDL free you up to live anywhere in the country and work for anyone. It's the only career where you can get a job within 7 days at a drop of a hat. If you don't believe me, research it yourself. There is a shortage of drivers and companies are constantly improving their pay packages to recruit new drivers.

He don't have to spend anything if he goes to a school like Prime or Knight. You have to work for them for 6-12 months or you have to partially pay them back.

yeah it's tough I drink everynight and just stay out at the library trying to get a IT cert. pretty much it, I feel it and I feel bad cuz these hoes got kids and look at me like :francis: when I say I do. Nothng wrong with not having kids but at least have money, if not you just look bad, I just feel like shyt all day, confidence is pretty much shot to hell. Trying to get it back.
Stop drinking asap. It'll make things worse. If you are still alive you have a chance to be better. Volunteer and help others if you have extra downtime.
