As I'm getting older, I really wish I got my life together while I was younger. Not only do I wish I made more money, but I wish I got off my rear-end and started career instead of a job.

Now, you have a path you'd like to go, so the career part seems to be coming along.

Before moving out of your parents house, I'd definitely recommend having money saved up (6 months worth of expenses IMHO), so I'm leaning towards getting that second job.

If Uber is an option (I'm not sure about age requirements), I really like that as a side gig to earn extra money as you only work when you want to. Feeling burned out? Don't turn on the app (or turn it off if it's already on). Have lots of energy and feel like making money? Drive all day! There's no "schedule" or boss calling you in when you just don't have it in you. YOU decide when to work. There's nothing worse than having a bad day at your primary job and being committed to a second job the same day.
