Car has been clicking for over a month. Finally got the bravery to take it to a mechanic for them to tell me what I already know. I need a new engine. I still owe $7000 on it. I drive a 2015 Hyundai Accent and it has 150k miles. I have no savings to put down on a new car, I haven’t paid my power bill in two months, I barely make rent, and I eat butter noodles and PBJs almost every day. Starting in August, I have to start paying my student loans off. Another $350 a month. I’m $2200 in credit card debt and $24000 in student loan debt. I’ve tried to find a second job, but I already work a 9-5 and no place is hiring servers/bartenders (which I did for 5 years) for just weekends, and most start their shift right at 5 or before 4. I genuinely don’t know what to do right now. I feel so lost.
