Last year after my mom passed away, I moved out to another state and moved in with my older brother. I had bought a new car last year, so I make payments twice a month.
I got my dream job as a flight attendant and moved to another state by myself.
So I pay my phone bill, my car payment, insurance, rent, utilities and I'm just finishing up the double deposit on my apartment because I didn't have a cosigner.

I am really struggling. I don't have much food in the house. I have to change my registration to this new state so it'll be around $400 and when I moved, I used my credit card for almost everything because I didn't have any money when I moved. So I'm working on paying that off as well.

I've been working as a flight attendant for 5 months now. I need advice on other ways to make money. Right now, I'm still an on call flight attendant and get paid for the hours I'm on call as well as when I'm flying.
I need help with budgeting because I really need to eat better. Are there other ways to make extra money in the mean time? I don't have much and I would usually go to my mom for things like this but I don't have her anymore. (link)
I just want to say good for you. You got your dream job and you are making it, despite the problems in your way.

When i read your post it reminded me of a time in my life, and it made me proud of you. You are not letting things keep you down. I am here to tell you its hard now but it gets better.

I feel you pain I have been there. I had to live of of Rice, eggs, roman for a while. It is rough. When budget is tight food in always the first thing to go.

I am sorry to say I do not have any great advice for you. Get a lot of hours and get raises. Over time you will pay thing off and over time you will get more and more money.

See if you qualify for food stamps, you may be suprised
