Hi, Anita!
Thank you for responding to my post. You make a valid point referring to crisis’s at many ages, so I am not alone there. I understand as the older you get, things change, and that’s what I guess I have trouble coming to terms with, hence why I brought up the QLC. I concur too about searching for employment as my number one priority.
In my situation I am not so sure about loan forgiveness, that these days as I read up on gets a bad reputation. There are, however, programs out there like government roles such as Peace Corp, Americorp, joining the service, etc that could help, but it’s not substantial. I invested the time looking into those and am not entirely opposed to the idea, but my main focus at the moment as you mentioned is finding the job first, moving out to wherever the position is located, and start paying back.
My full-time job right now is applying to full-time jobs, so I’ll just have to keep doing that and hope that someone will give me a chance or opportunity. Thank you again for your reply, it’s nice to hear from another person’s perspective.
