| I'm afraid of screwing up and becoming destitute as a result. Can anyone here relate to this fear? Sure can. I'm living in share accommodation, have nothing saved up (just blew every last cent on an overseas trip), and my entry-level job's been eroded from 4-5 days a week down to two or three. And ... |
