please create alt text for the attached image A Twitter/X post from Business Insider (@businessinsider.com) dated April 8, 2025 at 3:44 AM with a Bluesky tag. The post features a story about Donald Malone, 65, who has struggled to return to white-collar work after layoffs and burnout, and is now looking to pursue real estate. Below the text is a dark image showing a silhouette of a person with their head in their hands against a window backdrop of buildings at dusk or dawn. The caption at the bottom reads: "I took Social Security early, but $2,187 monthly isn't enough. I can't find a good job, so I'm trying to pivot..." with a truncated Business Insider URL below.
