Does the Corona Virus have you worried Financially?

I am 30 yrs old living with my parents and brother. I work as a graphic designer and currently working from home. I am pretty worried because I have no money saved up and no money currently in my bank account. I had $771 last Friday but spent it all on a fun weekend. Something I 1000% regret now. My Dad (mom is retired) and brother have enough money to sustain us for a while. I get paid this Friday and will have around $500 in my account which is good. Though I am able to work from home, because of the virus many of our clients have canceled a lot of their events which has put many of our projects on hold. So I am not sure how long I'll be able to work. This makes me realize that I have wasted 10 yrs of my life doing nothing. I've only been working for 5 yrs, and in those 5 yrs besides helping my parents with rent. I should've at least saved a few thousand dollars. I have no one to blame but myself. I don't have a car, girl friend, nothing. I see guys in their early 20's doing a lot better than me. Living the life I wish I had. When we make it through this I am definitely going to get my life together. Anxiety and Depression has crippled my life. But this event has been a turning point in my life. After this I am really going to start living life. And live up to the potential that most people know I have.

You are victim to the system which is put in place by people like you and me. A system which has continually gotten out of control as money accumulates at the top without regulation and victimizes us even more. The answer is to stand strong against the unethical shitty dystopia world that is wrong and everyone is afraid to admit.
