it sucks when you choose to move on but none of your "dreams" work out...

Is saving up for the car not an option?

I don’t want to sound mean, but it honestly seems like you’re giving up pretty easily.

There are hobbies and goals that won’t kill your finances. Maybe look into those? Broaden your horizons a little? Try new things?

I’m really looking forward to the freedom to pursue myself, if that makes sense. I don’t know… i just feel like pending independence has lit this fire of ambition for me. My hobbies for the first little few years are gonna be related to setting up extra income streams for myself. I’m divorcing late in the game which is gonna be a huge financial hit, but I am determined to finish strong and not let myself become a statistic. It’s gonna take some work on my part to get there though, so that’s what I am going to be focusing my time and efforts. I’m not leaving for a worse life. I’m leaving because I want a better life. My spare time activities are going to be focused on creating that for myself.
