All understandable questions. No I wasn’t born with a silver spoon up my ass either. I’m no longer unemployed, I bought the engagement ring in Feb before that happened so I just stashed it because no way was I getting down on one knee jobless. I mentioned this in another comment but California unemployment pays well, almost $2k a month. That went towards rent. I had a lot of airline miles to burn for the trip to Thailand, which is one of the cheapest places in the world to visit once you’re there ($40-60 a day all in). I was able to enjoy myself to the best of my ability for 6 months while also looking for a job and spending ZERO dollars elsewhere.
This might not surprise many but California unemployment pays pretty well – almost $2K a month. That goes towards rent the Capital R Roommate covers groceries and I use savings/miles/tricks/scams to do anything else

How much money do you think a part-time weeknight club and bar comic makes? I’m lucky if a tip jar is passed around at the end of the night
