For context I am a male, 19 and work in retail. I’ve worked in retail since I was 15 and plan on working in it for a long time (via owning my own small business)

I still love it at home with my parents (an entire different situation in its own rights). I am using whatever I have saved up to invest into my own business however it’s very slow due to the current state of the economy as I sell sports memorabilia which isn’t a necessity so people don’t have money for it. My goal was to use my profits to move out but that hasn’t gone as planned. As for moving out, there’s not much available as I live in a more rural area & everything is so inflated It’s way outta my budget.

As for now I also work at a different retail job my online business but the income of that job is pretty low for standard living rn. Plus I don’t have the skills for a trade job, don’t have the money to go to college, and my mental issues make it hard for me to do certain jobs well
