I've set up Maths tutoring with a PhD in engineering and physics and found an MD that I am going to try for the biology subjects. I may try to find a chemistry PhD for the chemistry courses but I figure that's enough for before my arm is even out of the cast. I don't even know I'll get into the programme yet but if not I'll sign up for one online - I just want this one specifically because it's awarded by QUB and I'd like to get into QUB.

I was a bit worried about starting tutoring before school starts even though I need the review - but I'm finding textbooks based off the Lecturers in The Great Courses Plus and McGraw Hill. Plus, courses offered for free by Yale. I suspect I can use those to get revised/educated on a lot of these topics before the courses start and set me up for success.

Hopefully. The reality is, as many financial experts say, you can't save your way out of poverty. I paid off my card. But after I put in my share of the mortgage and money we're saving toward fencing and GFCH, paid Lauren to walk Jake next month, insurance, etc. I barely have anything left over. If I'm honest with myself, I need to be making at least 1.5x what I'm making now, especially if I want to hire tutors. If I'd had a cushion, I'd not have built card debt to begin with.

If Patrick were working evenings and could walk/let Jake out mid-day I could cut Lauren (who I am pretty confident wants to be cut anyway) and that would give me a £240 bigger cushion monthly.

The doctor was right to recommend against working in the cast. It took me two days to write this post lol.
