<prompt> Human: I grew up in the antique business. Ive been buying and selling antiques on and off for 25 years. For the last decade Ive been doing it exclusively while taking care of my parents who have some health issues. I dont make a lot of money at all. Im less than 10k claimed per year, but my folks keep me afloat in exchange for taking care of them and their property. Obviously, its not the ideal situation for someone at my age. Thankfully I dont live in a basement.My last real jobs working for someone else was in 2000 SEOInternet Marketing Manager for a dot com bust and 2002-2004 manager for a yarn company. My antique business is eBay based, for the most part, and I have accrued over 10k positive feedbacks. I work. I dont mess around, its just a dying business for me, especially for eBay.So, I need a change and a change of scenery. My folks will eventually move to senior living and I need to GTFO and live my own life.I have some skills in managing, sales, and writing. I have a BA in EnglishCreative Writing. Im not looking to jump into a career and go from peanuts to 100k and retire in 20 years. Just.. No. I know I have dues to pay, as well as debts.I want to take this year to plan on my move and get myself sorted. I have 65k in school debt thats been sitting there gaining interest due to income driven repayment. I have about 2k in various debts here and there. I have no savings.I havent checked my credit in half a year. I did so when I wanted to rebuild it and see where I was at. I think it was around 680. I got a secured credit card and Ive been using it and paying it off on, or ahead of time every month. As it stands right now, my monthly bills are minimal... Around 300.What I want to do is probably laughable, but simple enough. I just want to move to Colorado I have friends there, I dont have any locally and start over. Get a job, any job, and work toward becoming debt free and eventually saving some retirement, even if I have to retire at 70. Id like to invest a little. Have a savings. Live a normal life. I know this will be hard.Leading up to the move, lets say a year at best, two at worst... What should I do? I live in a town of 300 people and the nearest work is probably 30 miles or more away. Its very rural here. I dont have a car. I know getting one will be a priority. So, beyond that... Anyone who has started overfresh do you have any suggestions or anecdotes or experience in what I need to do and what I need to expect?With this much debt I hate to think bankruptcy is an option - especially for school debt. Any insight on that?Considering my age, what are the best ways to invest toward a retirement when the work Im likely to find is entry level for the next few years?Saving for moving across the country is my secondary goal, Im trying to build it so that I have savings to start on after getting a quick job or oh shit money if I cant find a job for awhile.I hope some of this makes sense. I feel like I just dumped a crap load of text on your faces. Thanks for your time! I promise Im not a bum.  <response>: Im right there with you... Selling my place and moving to Portland. Im older than you, but I know it can be done.You might buy a used decent looking Prius.Heres why... The Prius could be used to uber until you get a full-time job.It can also be used to sleep in. The hybrid motor only kicks on every so often to charge the battery. The battery runs the ac and heater... For all of 1.63 per night.Storage locker for your stuff while ubrring, a 24 hour gym for hygiene. Library for early morningCamp stove for cooking and a plug in cooler for food...Google prius camping... Its my plan while waiting for my place to sell if I have to...Good luck...we will make it through!
