Made poor financial decisions, including taking a DUI charge and accumulating debt

Accumulated $18k in debt, including a $5k fine and 3 years of SR22 insurance, and struggled to find a conventional job due to living in a different location for medical and legal appointments

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had prioritized my finances and job search more before making poor decisions"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't let financial struggles lead to poor decision-making, and prioritize your well-being and job search"
