As the ongoing cost of living crisis continues to take its toll around the world, one struggling woman in America admits she's reached breaking point.
While the majority of us are hoping our 9-5s will cover the increasing cost of rent and bills, Arizona-born Jourdan Skirha has taken up three jobs to try and make ends meet.
Watch her speak about it below:
But the 29-year-old TikTok star claims her three sets of wages still aren't enough to cover her living expenses.

Breaking down in a now-viral video, which has resonated with millions of viewers worldwide, Jourdan cried: "I have three jobs. And I'm still f***ing struggling.
"I'm just getting myself farther and farther into credit card debt, because I don't have enough after the first of the month to avoid using it. It just isn't working."
The social media user claimed she'd been working since she was just 15, and despite not going into detail about her professions, she revealed she now makes 'six figures'.
"I have seriously considered quitting my full-time good job to go back to serving, because at least I can use my personality and try to get more money than minimum wage or what an 'entry-level' job pays people nowadays.
"It's f***ing sick."

On top of this, Jourdan claims her credit rating has also taken a hit in recent months due to overuse.
"My credit used to be f***ing phenomenal," she admitted.
"Credit card bill? Paid it all off, every single time. It's not like that. It can't be like that anymore.
"Full time job, not doing it. Got a second job, it's barely doing it. The third job? Hit or miss if I even get paid on time. I feel like I'm drowning and I don't know what to do."

In the comments of the video, many commented on the seemingly lavish lifestyle that Jourdan exhibits across her various social media profiles, with some accusing her of living beyond her means.
"You went to Ibiza in may tho," one of her followers penned, before another added: "Yeah, like lip injections are like $700. I mean that could be a financial struggle".
"My friend works for Boeing and paid for my flight lmao," Jourdan clapped back.

The TikToker insisted, however, that she'd 'never give up' some of life's luxuries.
"The one thing I'll never give up personally is getting my nails done, because I have been doing that my entire life," she shared, adding that she also receives regular botox and fillers.
"It doesn't really matter cause it makes me happy."
She finished the video by asking: "Just wanna know if anyone else is like me right now."
More than 20,000 people have now commented on the video, with many claiming they can relate to Jourdan's financial agony.

"Who else has been personally victimized by 2023?" one viewer quipped.
Another wrote: "I’m drowning mentally, financially and physically…."
"And they wonder why our generation doesn’t want kids", a third pointed out.
