Corona has literally cancelled all of my potential income for the foreseeable future (I was working in the music industry). I applied for unemployment as soon as I could but now it's been 6 weeks with no response. I really don't see the music industry picking back up again any time soon, and I'm starting to get the feeling that my unemployment case has completely fallen through the cracks. I have about $5000 in cash saved up but otherwise I don't know what the fuck to do. If I have to keep paying rent and other expenses, and have zero opportunity to bring money in, what now? I don't even have enough to build out a tiny house or something and fuck off.
Anyone else in this position? Anyone got any money ideas for a post-corona world?
> I was working in the music industry yeah youre using the corona as a scapegoat for your failing career and literally continuing to brainwash yourself that its the virus' fault you're not making any money by making this thread

lol wow eat a dick. You probably have such a limited view of the world that you hear "I work in the music industry" and all you can picture is someone trying to be a famous guitarist. There's a lot more to do - and get paid for - than that.
>just get a job >in the middle of a global pandemic u srs? what fucking job

Are you a gig worker? You could apply for the SBA loan if that is the case.
Did you get your TrumpBux?
Be more specific on what you do and what your situation is.

Nothing you can possibly contribute to the music industry has any economic value whatsoever anymore. It's literally worthless now.

I was working as a live sound engineer for a couple nice venues in my area, and I play in a band that tours internationally throughout the year.
I applied for the SBA loan as soon as I could (I have an LLC for my work) and was denied before they ran out of money. I also can't apply for the gig worker unemployment benefit of $600 a week because my current claim is still "pending".
I got my TrumpBux, but that's just about 2 months worth of rent. I live with my brother, we rent a house together.

look at this fucking music hippy immediately going for "you have such a narrow view of the world" hahahaha hey fuckstick, doing a bunch of acid doesn't make you more cultured, it fucks up your brain to the point of psychosis, giving you a false sense of moral superiority.
