...but, I've never been in charge of my career path. There have never been any jobs for us. Yes I work on video games in my free time but now I have been doing it for a decade and I have never found anyone to show my games to. The problem isn't that my startup did work out, the problem is that my life isn't working out. How am I supposed to feed myself every day if I don't have money? How am I supposed to program every day when I can't feed myself. Every day I am slipping further and further behind and nobody has any clue what to do.

I don't have any clue how to talk to hiring people. Ever since I got a degree, they were experts at fishing the worst things out of my life that somehow disqualified me from employment. Whether it was a bad grade I got somewhere that is somehow completely my fault, or the way I am supposed to ask and beg for a job as an unemployed person.

If I knew how to make my own job I wouldn't be starving and homeless.
