I am a 20 year old guy (just turned 20 actually), and I want to go to China to study chinese thoroughly on September-January. I need $7300 and I already have $2000 saved up. I live in Peru and earn $500 a month (full-time), but I am miserable at work and this work will only be viable until the end of February. Then I have university from March to beginning of July, which leaves me July and August to work at who knows where (this job is no longer viable for these months).
I am an american citizen, which means I could go to work to the US (plus with all the experience) and I have a family in Miami, Florida with whom I could live with.
The only problem is that I don't have a secure job to get into in USA, but I could look for one. My viable working months are January, February, July, August. Is it possible for me to get a good job? Is it smart of me to leave my current job?
Please help.

Sometimes, grants are available for studying abroad. There are Church's who have mission boards who provide financial assistance when in another country. If you don't have the money by the time you need to leave, then perhaps you should reconsider going to China. You could make much more money working in the U.S. than Peru. $2,000 would be enough to help you get started in America, especially if you have a family with whom you could live.
