I'm 25, have 13k in cash, and I'm living with my parents. I have no real expenses other than a yearly phone bill and my skincare. I'm unemployed with a degree in mechanical engineering. I lost 4k in gambling after a small winning streak. I applied to at least 500 jobs over the course of a year. I've applied to data science, software engineering, and regular engineering jobs that directly match my degree. Even internships. Multiple versions of my resume. Even decided to just bullshit and lie about my experience and knowledge but I can't get an interview. I also copied a friend's resume and applied to his company. I also got my dad's friend who's an engineer to try hooking me up at his company and he set out feelers with other people but nothing.

I don't understand it. It genuinely feels like God doesn't want me to find a job yet. I don't give a damn about having nice things or a nice car. I just want my parents to be proud of me. My dad even told me I should try Youtube. This is fucking embarrassing. My mom keeps mentioning going back for a masters degree but I cheated my way through my bachelors. Right after college I wanted to get a job as a cashier or something until I could start my career but my dad said no and called them "immigrant jobs". Now he wants me to apply to Walmart just to make some money. I feel humiliated. And everyday I go without making money, the longer it takes to fix my fucked up face. I don't want to be a NEET anymore. Any advice?

Stop destructive behaviour and find a way to be self employed while you find work. Slave away at immigrant work if it means filling your day while you increase self employment - building your portfolio - and apply. use claude to redo cv. best tool.

learn a high income skill and monetize it. a lot of the shit u see these course sellers do actually works but niggas like to cope with their “immigrant” jobs or degrees and say it doesn't. literally ask gpt and it’ll give you infinite examples of some you could go with.

Me personally, i used to resell rep clothes on IG but it didn’t really work as well as i wanted it to. Now, ive been learning how to daytrade and have seen some more success as i got payed out from a prop firm in november. it was only 1 time and only $1500 dollars but ive only been trading since march and most people take years to even their first funded account.

im only 16 yrs old so i have more time than you to eat shit, but if i was in your situation, i would have read this and started on learning a skill in the next minute. start now and work hard and before you know it you will find success. good luck brother.

(extra tip: start a tiktok/ig account and document your journey, success on social media will lead to revenue from videos as well as potential, future course/mentorship sales.)
