I can’t do this endless cycle anymore

For context, I’m 18, and I want to do all of these things but I feel hopeless when I look outside at this country. I’m never going to own a home. I love kids, and would want some so badly, but I can’t have them in a world living paycheck to paycheck. I would want to give them the best birthdays and Christmases ever. But I know I would never be able to do that with $14.50 an hour. I’m so scared to look at the future or want to pursue anything because it’ll be a big waste of time and effort. At this point I just want to be content on having a place to live. I can’t keep working for the rest of my life.
