Ugh...gotta be brutal making a living at the $10s and 20s

Try getting a "real job." This way poker is more of a supplemental income and you'll feel more comfortable trying to move up in limits. Then when you're at a limit you feel comfortable with and feel like you can make enough to live on...quit.

Who knows you may get lucky and find a real job that you enjoy as much or more than poker.

OP, work more, add more tables or spend less.

Get a real job to cover expenses and save. Play fewer games or maybe one game at a time - concentrate on quality of play - concentrate - on improving your play and getting better.

Sounds like you're in a major rut.

5 tables of $20+2's would be more like $30/hour for a good player.
