Comment: Sounds like doing the right things for the wrong reasons.

Rather than live with your parents because you can't afford anything else, live with them because they are family, and you love them, and you want to help them. Focus on being a joy to them, and it will repay you with joy.
Go to your service job because you want to be a part of society, and use every opportunity to plant a seed of truth. You can't be very obvious on the job, but if you spend your time watching, waiting, ready to strike like Ninja with a tidbit of truth, you can while away the hours as a stealth "infowarrior." Who cares how much you get paid? You are working as an in cognito agent for love, the paycheck is part of your cover.
Don't buy silver against a collapse, buy silver to keep it out of those who would make weapons out of it.
One day, you will likely find that your little pile of silver can buy you and your loved ones a new way of life, but for now, remember that it all boils down to a choice between love and fear.
