Money's Too Tight to Mention

I always seem to be working like a mad thing but falling significantly short. I need to catch a break, but it never seems to come. I honestly don't know what to do. It seems like the *only* thing I can do is work harder for longer, but that's not going to be enough (even if I put up my asking price/charges yet again). To add yet more insult to many existing injuries, my parents' business has failed, they're ~$2 670 in debt and have nobody to turn to but me (since, for some reason I can't discern, I've always been the Great White Hope to them). However, I can't provide them with that money, haven't ever made that much money in a month and frankly don't know *how* I'm going to. I've got nobody to whom I can turn. I don't know what to do or where to start in terms of getting it. Everything I've tried (making and selling music, fundraising, faucets, begging, staking crypto, writing articles on multiple for-pay sites, even looking for permanent employment and freelancing) has either not brought in anything or not enough. For over a year, I've been on one long losing streak. At the end of next month, we could *all* be homeless. Then I'll be *completely* without options, because there's definitely no coming back from that. For over a year, I knew the coming of this day would be inevitable, but I've just not known when. I keep limping along, month after month and losing one thing after another as I go. PS: Since Pub0x has now added another sh*tcoin ($STA) on another rubbish network (Fantom) as a tipping option, I'm going to try posting to Read Cash again. Being bearish about Ethereum and ERC20 tokens is one thing. Supporting/using a project/network that facilitates central bank-backed "cryptocurrencies" (CBDCs) is quite another. No thanks; I'm having no part in that if I can help it.
