<prompt> Human: Parents kicked me out for good and there is no option to return home. I have decided to accept reality and strike out on my own in this harsh world. My plan is to get a job - then get a second job - save up - buy a moped to save money - buy a car after 6 months - live in my car for a year to save money - enroll in community collegeAny other tips advice that to help me out along my journey?  <response>: Stay away from for-profit colleges and drugs. There is a lot of uncertainty in your future, but sometimes the easiest things or the things that are sold to you the hardest are the worst path. Get 3 to 6 months of rent and living expenses together, find a cheap apartment with roommates, and enrol in community college. Maybe youll have to move towns to find the best deal, one with transit so you dont have to buy a car. Any way - do a lot of research and talk to a lot of people. Ask questions and get organized with your documentation - Google Docs can be great for someone without their own computer. When youre staying with your friend, ask what chores you should be doing. Clean up all of your stuff, and a bit of everyone elses too. The longer you have a place to stay, the better - take on vacuuming or kitchen scrubbing while youre there, and make sure youre pulling your weight and then some.
