It is nothing like that.
Even if you don't have any money to invest in a venture, you have access to the internet. That alone allows you to learn many skills for almost nothing. You like writing, why don't you learn copywriting or something similar might interest you? Those skills are in demand pretty much everywhere.
A friend of mine who studied law and failed to get a job after graduating started getting into social media advertising and now he's doing pretty well but he had to learn and hustle. And it doesn't even take that long to have functional knowledge. You're already a writer, you have an advantage.
I needed around $3000 for my first real business and only had $800 in my bank account. I would've had to save every cent of my salary for months to reach that goal. You know what I did? Managed to convince a company to pay me for translating documents in English to Spanish. Got paid $2300 in two months.
I would've never got my first client in law if I hadn't gone to a few networking meetings.
There are plenty of opportunities out there for you to grab if you're actively seeking them.

No offense but this is a stupid approach.

Pretty much all the books I read nowadays are digital
I just carry them everywhere and on every device I own.

Ok, this sucks. Publishers are insane. I need like 1000-1500e to publish my book. 
Today I talked with some editor and it turns out prices are sky high everywhere. Too hard for my wallet.

If you don't get published in the journals, or win publishing in one of the contests, you'll learn that your writing needs some work/polishing and you can get to that, improving as a writer.
If you do get published, first off, most reputable ones will pay you something, and secondly you shall have something to take to a literary agent or publishing house to show them that you can actually write and have some potential appeal. Your novel will be far more likely to be picked up by a publishing house this way.
No, we are not. We're in da talks to enter but I highly doubt we can enter earlier than 2022. My guess would be around 2025. Also, EU is far from being great so I'd even skip it. The best part out EU is that you can go to another country (I bet 90% of young people would vote YES to EU just because they could leave the country).
When you think about it, it's actually pretty scary how many things technology fucked up.
In your case I'd assume both English and Spanish are native tongue.
You can learn plenty of things on the Internet, that part is true. However, if you live in a fucked up country the only thing you need is a connection and somebody to back you up. That's when you see people with MA degree sit at home because somebody with highschool was pushed to enter. Making CV bigger and great seems like a great deal in big countries. Not here, though. It means nothing. When we see job ads here chances are 95% how they have a guy already for the job and he's in the company already, but it's their law obligation to place an ad. I know that as I've seen it in several companies where I worked.
Talked with some people who were/are in a similar position. They did publish some stuff in magazines and they either don't pay anything or it doesn't help much. I actually had a chat with the main editor of one major publishing houses and he said he's going through the same shit when he wants to publish, despite having published books already. For example, one of our strongest houses has a budget to publish 9 books per year (of unknown authors). That's really horrible. Among them there are people who won huge prizes, so they usually get picked instantly (just like last year).
Also, it's this modern era. They only seek the profit, unlike before when you could publish quality stuff. It's just profit and that's disgusting. It's not in my interest just to publish something for the sake of it. I could've done that had I written some shit like a) how to lose 20kg in a month b) 10 ways of how to get happy c) write shit like Coleho does, etc.
Capitalism? Yay?
Anyway, I'll just keep going. I sent my book for proofreading and I'll pay for that. That's at least one expense I can cover haha.

To me it's actually vice versa. I have a lot of books and would never buy a book from a great author as PDF. I gotta have the real thing. It's fine if you only read what's on Amazons best selling list, or some cheapo thriller/horror books you can run through in no time though.
