Lost Between Litigation and Stability

Hi,
is anyone else feeling this frustrated and tense? I am 27 and I enrolled at 2025, and during my studies my plan was to pursue the judiciary. But then the 3 year practice rule felt like a huge blow to me. I honestly feel like a loser sometimes. If I look at other exams, the seats are very few, and being from the general category makes it feel even harder. The office where I practice doesn’t pay me anything, which is difficult because I hate being a financial burden on my mother. But at the same time, the office itself is actually good. My senior is genuinely a blessing he gives good guidance for judiciary preparation, the exposure is good, and compared to the stories I hear about toxic or perverted seniors in other offices, I know I’m fortunate in that sense. Still, I feel stuck. I don’t know what to do. Preparing for exams feels like such a long shot, and the judicial service exam probably won’t happen for me until 2028 or 2029. No idea how I’m going to survive these years if I’m this broke. By then it feels like life is just passing by while I’m waiting and struggling.Thinking about switching to the corporate field.Does anyone know how to get into the corporate field? What knowledge or skills are needed? If anyone has any guidance, I’m open to any suggestions.
