Or the freelance money in which I contract out to larger production houses for corporate events; typically another $1k or more per month.

At this point, the entire year is gone. Good thing I paid my house off!

The countries that have done well left us a blueprint. We just want to argue politics instead.

This is all so unnecessary.

I'm screwed.

Stop being selfish.
