Hi Everyone,
can someone help to correct this email, please?
Thank you for any reply.

What does it feel like to become poor after being wealthy?
The feeling is horrible. I was living in my home country when I did not even need to worry about if the rent has been paid if I have enough food in my house. I bought things without even thinking twice if I can afford it. This has changed since I moved to the USA. I am a healthcare professional and I did everything by book. I obtained my license, however; I could not find a job for one year. I started working in a place where they paid 5$ / hour+ commission. I was not good at selling that time which means I was only paid 50$ for 10 hours working. I could not afford the minimum things. I was living paycheck-to-paycheck, horrible feeling.

Hello, here's my attempt:

What does it feel like to become poor after being wealthy?
The feeling is horrible. I was living in my homeland when I did not even need to worry about whether the rent has been paid or whether I have enough food in my house. I bought things without even thinking twice whether I can afford it. This has changed since I moved (since + present perfect) to the USA. I am a healthcare professional and I did everything by book. I obtained my license, however; I could not find a job for one year. I started working in a place where they paid 5$ (place dollar) per hour+ commission. I was not good at selling that time which means I was only paid 50$ for 10 hours working. I could not afford the minimum things. I was living paycheck-to-paycheck, horrible feeling.

Bonjour.
What does it feel like to become poor after being wealthy?
The feeling is horrible. I was living in my home country (when : pourquoi aucune interruption) , I did not even need to worry (about : inutile) if the rent
(has been : past simple) paid or if I (have : past simple) enough food in my house. I bought things without even thinking twice if I (can : past simple) afford it. This has changed since I moved to the USA. I have been (cela dit je pense que le présent pourrait marcher aussi) a healthcare professional and I did everything by THE book. I obtained my license (permis ?), however; I could not find a job for one year. I started working in a place where they paid (5$ : ordre) / hour+ commission. I was not good at selling that time , which means I was only paid (50$ : pareil) for 10 (hours working non c'est : hours' work). I could not afford (the minimum things : bizarre) plutôt : a minimum living standard
I was living paycheck-to-paycheck, (XXX) horrible feeling

Hello !

Je ne sais plus trop où reprendre ... Certaines fautes ont été corrigées, d'autres ajoutées ...


What does it feel like to become poor after being wealthy?(pour moi, toute cette phrase est très maladroite et demanderait à être reformulée ...)
The feeling is horrible. I was living in my home country (when : pourquoi aucune interruption) ,(il faut du lieu! pas du temps ...) I did not even need to worry (about : inutile) if the rent
(has been : past simple)(j'aurais mis une antériorité ...) paid or if I (have : past simple) enough food in my house. I bought things without even thinking twice if I (can : past simple) afford it. This has changed since I moved to the USA. I have been (cela dit je pense que le présent pourrait marcher aussi)[ une durée éclaircirait le tout, surtout avec le prétérite derrière ... mais présent OK] a healthcare professional and I did(si le présent est conservé, il faudra étoffer ce passé ...) everything by THE book. I obtained my license (permis ?)[quel permis? de conduire? à préciser...], however; I could not find a job for one year. I started working in a place where they paid (5$ : ordre)[ c'est bien $5 / hour+ commission. I was not good at selling XX that time , which means I was only paid (50$ : pareil) for 10 (hours working non c'est : X 10 hours' work). I could not afford (the minimum things : bizarre) plutôt : a minimum living standard (construire avec bare) I was living paycheck-to-paycheck (cf Lien internet
, (XXX) X horrible feeling.
