Lost all my money trading FX and credit cards maxed out

[G86]

I've been trading FX for over 4 years now, always thought it has lots of potential because of it's high leverage. Unfortunately, the potential never materialized. Despite my numerous attempts at perfecting my "strategy" and "money management", my trading account never grew.

My trading account blew up multiple times. Each time I'd say to myself "it's ok, lots of pros went through the same thing, if I stay persistent, then something good will happen." Again, after 4 years, nothing happened. I finally realize that I have no edge trading this market and that I have been gambling this entire time.

Lesson learned: If you are doing the wrong thing, persistence will only hurt you.

Right now my situation is this: No cash, introvert, 10k credit card debt, no marketable job skill, and worst of all, just got married.

My parents are nice enough to cover basic need until I get back on my feet, but I do not want to rely on them for long. Hopefully I can climb out of this financial black hole quickly.

My plan right now is to find a job in a franchise fast food restaurant/hotel and learn everything about it. Then I'll open my own franchise restaurants/hotels by using my uncle's connections. Hopefully everything will work out.
