<prompt> Human: Ok PF, I need some advice of what or what not to do. Backstory:Im 25. A few months ago I read all about the oil boom occurring in North Dakota. I read about people with little or no prior experience working on wells making 70K a year, truck drivers 100K. I wanted to get in on that. I was living in New York as a semi-NEET working at FedEx as a package handler,literally living in my mothers basement. My mother died on Easter this year and she left basically everything to my sister except a salary from her state job. In August I received a 65K inheritance. I saw this as a terrific chance to try and work in ND because I had nothing really in NY, just NEETdom and minimum wage jobs while living under my sisters house. Since I had read that housing was tough to come by I looked around and purchased a small camper which I could take out and stay in while I worked. 2000 First mistake? I traded my HHR in to the guy I bought the camper from for a 2001 ford expedition and paid 3000 second mistake? After this I bought some stuff that I thought I would need out there. Another 5000 total. third mistake? I left NY for ND last Wednesday and it was going very well until my Explorer just stopped working outside of Michigan City Indiana. Apparently the whole drive from NY to IN I was drive with 4WD on, which totally destroyed the engine and transmission. Fourth mistakeI had to get it and the camper towed and have been staying at a local motel since Friday completely stranded. They said it was more expensive to get repairs then buy a new truck. I have been looking at local used dealers and found another Ford Explored yesterday for 6000. Since I am stranded and the towing place said they will only keep my camper for a week I have to either buy it or junk everything and sulk back home. The problem being that the dealer wont accept debit or credit card which is all I have on me, and western union wont wire from my bank. The only option they said is to give my bank the dealers account information and take it out from mine into theirs. if they can even do that-my bank said they might not!My question is this - should I go ahead and get this other ford explorer if I can that is and continue on to North Dakota where there are more jobs and better paying? or should I sulk back home and accept I wasted almost 20,000 of my limited inheritance. What else could I have done, and what else can I do to escape NEETdom and living as a loser with my sister? Im sitting in this motel in Indiana constantly haunted by all this. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks for your attention everyone!  <response>: Use paragraphs.
