So wait, how long is the increased monthly phone charge for? Because paying $112 + an extra $16/month doesn't sound like a great idea for someone on such a tight income. Going with buying a used phone off Craigslist or swappa and getting a cheaper phone plan if anything sounds feasible/better? Although I'm not very familiar with Canadian carriers, do they have MVNOs like Cricket/Boost/etc in the states?

Also going into coding via the vocational route (so, like, bootcamps or self-teaching) can be pretty rough. You don't have to get a CS degree to break into programming, but it's definitely the safer, more straightforward route.

In particular, while the basics of programming are pretty easy, there's a Cliff of Frustration at the intermediate level, when you go from tiny little toy projects to something that resembles Actually Building Software that generally breaks people's brains for a while, the complexity is just hard to hold in your head.
