All the things i like and want to do for a job require i have someone like a husband to financially support me...?

I'm 19 and really want to go into something involving knitting or crochet, or things like that, maybe selling stuff. But my mother told me all of those things require you to have a boyfriend or husband to financially support you if you want to live in an apartment... I'm not really good at anything except yarn crafts and PERHAPS playing video games.

    There are loooooooads of sewing factory jobs. You can sell blankets or handmade stuff on etsy as well, open up your own shop. Playing video games for a living isnt a glamorous as you may think. Its boring and repetitive. Imagine running into a wall in a gae a 100 times to make sure theres no glitches. Thats what they do.

    Don't depend on someone else to support you. Get a job as a sales clerk in a clothing store to get experience selling things. The only people who make money with knitting and crochet are people who design items and are paid to do so by yarn companies or people who design patterns and publish books.

    so if you are not good enough to make a living at yarn crafts - and developing a following or market can take years even if you are very good - you need to learn some practical skills. community colleges or technical schools offer courses in office skills, things like medical assisting, or technical trades. or you get into retail somehow, maybe working in a yarn shop and giving lessons, etc. if that is really what you want to be focusing on. you CAN support yourself owning a yarn shop but first you have to get the money and experience to run one successfully.
