I am not sure that at age 30, doing something that will cause no one to loan you a cent until you are 40 is a good solution. No cars (unless you want to pay a rate that should be criminal), no buying a home, in some cases getting rejected for rental housing, paying more for all forms of insurance. The cure is worse than the disease.

I would think it would be much better to just live at home and work two jobs for the foreseeable future to start digging out. Waiting tables, tending a bar, whatever.
Sounds like good advice. Just not sure it's feasible. The job I have is swing shift now. It's good money, but like I said, when they hired me on, it was with the knowledge that I probably would get laid off sometime in November.
