I've known you a long time, and each time you've hit the wall, you've gotten up again. This time will be no different. Hard times have hit almost everyone I know, including yours truly. Monetarily I can't help you, but I'm always hear to listen, and sometimes that's almost as good. Well written, well done, well said.

As a full-time traveller, I can't imagine living with that. I intentionally and agressively paid off all my debt before leaving home. Now I just need to earn enough each month to pay for basics and the next ticket. It's financially stress free. Do I worry about the future? Retirement for example? No, but I'm aware of it. I try to put aside 10% of everything I earn into a savings account, so I'm really living off 90% of my income. I figure that's enough for now, as long as I don't ever dig into it.
