No job and I fear being homeless one day?

I'm 30 years old have a high school diploma and I have not been able to get a job since I graduated highschool.

I currently live with my parents but one day they will die and once they die I won't be able to afford to pay for food or any other essentials and if I fear being homeless one day.

What can I do?

I had that same fear and was getting turned down for quite awhile before I got a job. In the mean time while I was looking for other full time work I was posting advertisements on bulletin boards and asking people if they needed some lawn care or any other type of work done.

I got by with those temporary odd jobs until I landed a full time job. It took me probably 1,000 job applications and even applying again at the same job I applied for before until I landed the job.

Don't give up on looking for a job and keep sending in those resumes you're bound to have a call back soon and get a job.

Look into freelance work if you're good at doing online work for people. Some people earn a good living wage doing freelance work for people on freelancer or other freelance websites.

You can do this work without leaving your home.
