Brent, who previously owned an advertising agency with an annual revenue of $500,000, faced setbacks after his apartment burned down without insurance. This traumatic event led to a breakdown, causing him to lose clients and struggle to secure employment. Professionals like Brent, with a college education, find themselves in a challenging position in the current job market.

The white-collar job market, particularly in technology, banking, and insurance, experienced a significant decline in job listings, ranging from 18% to 55% year-over-year in April 2023, as reported by Indeed. Analysis of data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) by CBS revealed a cooling down of jobs in the technology and media industry, aligning with Brent’s qualifications.
Despite the challenges in Brent’s preferred sectors, the leisure and hospitality industry, which he avoids, has shown resilience, adding an average of 52,000 jobs per month up to October 2023, according to BLS data. Low-wage workers have also seen substantial wage growth, according to research from the Economic Policy Institute.
Brent’s reluctance to consider opportunities in service and hospitality, while waiting for a perceived better job, reflects the mental hurdle of being overqualified. Meanwhile, he relies on gig work and side jobs for income, insufficient to cover rent without parental assistance. Brent’s financial situation is further compounded by poor spending habits, including acquiring high-interest loans and purchasing online lottery tickets.
In response, Caleb Hammer advises Brent to take immediate action, recommending gig work such as driving for Uber Eats. Hammer also suggests working long hours to increase income and paying off debts quickly. Additionally, cutting back on unnecessary expenses, such as lottery tickets and online subscriptions, is advised to improve Brent’s financial situation and reduce reliance on parental support.
