Have been unlucky in finances all my life. Will it ever change? My birthday is 5-29-1968.

Oh, don't be upset. The financial situation would be better than last year. In the second half of the year, you will have stable income. Thus don't worry too much. However, you are still advised to learn how to manage the money. Maybe you can make detailed records about income and payments. Try to find a balance. In addition, don't invest money on unfamiliar fields.
