Broke and ok with it? Maybe you accept that youre happy regardless of the size of your wallet, or maybe you've never known anything different.
I lost one of my jobs this summer and im down to 15 hours a week. Money is tight but ive never been happier?
How can I explain this?

It's that catch 22.. when you have money you never have the time to enjoy it and when you have time you never have any money to do anything..

pretty much.
i'm broke but it doesn't matter, i'm having fun with school (for the most part) and that's more important than having money to me.

I did, I dont think you get the entire picture Im painting here..
For example, have you ever just not been hired? Ever get tossed before you were old enough to legally work?
That whole "just get a job" reaction doesnt always apply in todays world..

i suppose so; it's the only option though.
you have to prepared for just such an occasion. which would probably mean, establishing yourself before you, so to say, pounce.
