You have options tho.
First of your 27 so learning a new language and going somewhere where living is cheaper and your skills etc is more desired is piss easy.
I am in a similar position, though my education background is significantly worse and I am living a very nice life.
Second of you are 27, you can just go on a different path, if you know mechanicL engineering you have a really good base to branch out from and learn something high paying in your country. You could write and submit paper und impulse drives or something and go to the street as a "rocket engineer" type quant.

What even possesses people to make these threads unless they're just like women seeking validation that they're doing all right in life?

I'm not saying you're loaded nigger, I'm saying you're lightyears ahead of most people your age if anything you said was true and these posts show up here every fucking day with nearly identical wording. Just cool it nigger and stop expecting /biz/ to stroke your ego because you're insecure.

anon these posts are always bullshitters that are trying to demoralize you. most people live paycheck to paycheck, have $5000 in savings at best and the rest is loans and a mortgage.

Try working in finance and actually learning about it rather than just reading the bullshit posted here.

you can unironically take this reply to the bank

I know he's demoralizing but I tell you as a guy at rock bottom this shit hits hard even if fake.
5k in my savings would be a 5000x from my currently condition.
