Believe me, I have and still am trying hard to get a job. I never though getting my master's I would be jobless and only in the $50K range of salary. it sucks

Why not take a job that pays a lot less for the time being while still looking for another job?
 
Keep your head up. Theres more people under worse circumstances yet you still have a legitimate BACHELORS to remind you you have the upper hand when it comesto a possible Job opportunity. Dont blame yourself.

I know plenty of people at my workhouse that took 30-40K jobs when they were laid off from 60-80K...@++! is just temporary until economy comes back uphopefully in years and while they are still job hunting.

Are you in the LA area? I can't believe you were making so little with an MBA. I make that much with a finance undergrad straight out of school. Thatspretty standard undergrad analyst pay for new grads here in chicago (45-55k). Why are you living with your parents? What does your fiance do? Be glad you got agirl and you have an education...nothing to do but keep grinding...

Don't base your whole life around a job. This how these ******s do that murder/suicide, your life is much more than that.

Why not just take the paycut for now? You said you feel like you'll just get laid off anyways right?

It's some income, you get experience, and you get unemployment when you get laid off. Winz.
 
Even if you have to take the pay cut you'd still have a job. Like others said keeping looking and applying. Having something and getting some sort ofincome is better than nothing.
 
Even if you get another job and get laid off again, at least you'll create a little revenue, right?

I'm sure it seems hard, but you have your health, your parents, and your soon to be wife. Plus, you have an education with at least a little bit ofexperience.

You'll find work soon enough. And, if you can't find anything in your area, you might have to relocate. Having to find new friends and getting paid isa lot better than having the same old friends with no money, man.
 
[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]Your only problem is the fact that you're letting MONEY dictate your life. You have the potentialto secure a job, but you're letting money be the deciding factor. Get over your pride and you'll be good. Besides, chasing money makes you a modern dayslave...and I would hope that you have better aspirations than that.[/color]

How much does your fiance make?
 
I hope you're at least moving in with your girl after you're married.

Wait I hope your girl isn't sucking at life like you and is also living with her parents

You need to go on a Walkabout my friend.
 
congrats on your education, trust me they will come a long way....looking at your "successful friends" should make you work harder.....Its not likeyou have a degree in that is not marketable, you have an MBA
