My twenties were a time of financial hardship. The truth is that being broke was a part of my identity for as long as I could remember. My financial situation changed from being good to being bad. Year after year, it gets worse until my twenties are over. Being broke is having a $0 income and no savings. I have experienced having no income almost for a year. Getting a cash flow without a job is impossible. The only way to make money is through a job when you are alone with no connections. As the job market worsens, it is becoming increasingly difficult to secure a job. As a result of my poor money management skills and broke mindset, I am working poor. I know it’s like having a few dollars and bank fees while then taking all the money out, so the bank doesn't get it. There is no doubt that money is a universal problem.

My financial situation in my twenties was like we were in and out of having cash flow and mini money saving. I had money in college and got paid as a student ambassador. Then I lived paycheck to paycheck in a full-time job. I made money through an employment program the year I quit my job with no plans. One year later, I decided to go back to school for career training and failed to land a job. The final year of my twenties was spent job hunting for eight months straight until I found temporary work.

When I heard Bethany Frankel say that she was broken in her twenties, I was like this is normal and I have my thirties to get my life together financially. My life in Canada is not the best. As a result of my financial situation, I am not living the life I want. Being a stable person with a job is calling me now. Investing in my future starts now. Having money is the only way to survive in Canada. In the present and in the future, government policies will not solve the real issues.
In terms of my financial history, I am not very impressive. Being an educated woman and seeing the world through TikTok has taught me so much. My future is in my own hands. I’m responsible for my own life.

I am working towards gaining money and finding a full-time job. My dream is to move on from these situations and start living my dream adult life. Stating over is essential right now and I have a clean slate to get financially stable. It's becoming apparent to me that you need money for your future self, for your children, and for your partner. My only options are based on me getting out of being broke.
