I have no income. I have no car nor house. I have about BRL $3,000 in my savings account. I still live at my parents. After only a month, I was fired from my first, last, and only job so far. That was two years ago. I filled the gap with a Master’s degree that, to be honest, was a waste. I have no career, reputation, or social capital. Single and about to turn 28.

By all society’s standards, I’m a failure in every way.
