Comment on Ask HN: Where Are All the Jobs At?parent

You're currently unemployed and made nothing for a very long time. Your experience from a few years ago is no longer applicable.

Unless there's something you're not disclosing like a drug conviction or being a dependent of your parents, you should be eligible for Pell grants and other offers. If you're a California resident, vocational school should be near-free for you. There are no criteria for student loans besides a pulse.

Stay on your friend's good side and throw a few bucks his way. Getting an apartment with student loans as your only source of income can be tricky (in this market, I'd expect it impossible). You may be aged-out of dorms and they kick you out every summer anyway.

Thats true, but iirc, when filling out the forms, they ask for tax information, from two years prior to the year you're applying.

Unfortunately, they're probably moving out of state early next year, which is why I'm particularly. worried.
