idk i guess people dont have a choice and they wanna keep having sex with their wife and they feel responsible for feeding their kids (rightly so) so it all feeds together into this system

>i dont

now i just play shitty eth ponzies like p3d or zethr

went from less than 1 eth to 80 eth in 3 months

because they want to continue living

Eh, we need these people in order to have a society. Normies are literally bred to be worker drones. It's programmed into their brains. I can't tell you how many times I have heard them say something along the lines of "I would literally go insane without a job. What do rich people do all day?"

I for one am grateful for the worker drones.

jobs give meaning to a lot of people's lives, including mine. i like to work, just not for someone else. if i could capture my value more directly, then i would like working more. the thing is, the bosses risk a lot more than the worker drones. today, it's very difficult to take that risk unless you're already rich

Coming from a rich man who couldn’t survive on his own without slaves. I suppose if people did not want to be slaves then there would be no slaves. But giving up freedom for security is easy.

Praxagora: I want all to have a share of everything and all property to be in common; there will no longer be either rich or poor; [...] I shall begin by making land, money, everything that is private property, common to all. [...]
Blepyrus: But who will till the soil?

it stems from their lack of critical analysis of the situation

it just leaves you homeless and without a job

You are correct. We are anomalies. We are outliers. Outliers have the potential to become leaders, influential figures, etc.. Because we see things others don't. But most of us, probably like 99.99999% of us, just waste it and do nothing with our lives.

>>10722081
yeah, but i can go do whatever i want right fucking now and you have to stay in your slave cube. you can keep telling yourself you enjoy it and it's just the same, but deep down you know you're a slave. the sad part is they don't even have to whip and beat you to stay one, you do it willingly. fucking pathetic

>>10722129

>>10722310
good for you, bro. congrats on your house nigga slave job. wrong.

Obvious bait or completely hopeless NEETS with maximum cope. I'll bite tho

So humans by nature need to be productive and set goals to be somewhat happy. When you work even though you sometimes hate it , it builds morale. When you get off everyday you feel like you did something, I call it a little buzz. Because you get to relax now and enjoy whatever you want.

Look I'm gonna keep this short because I dont want to waste time with faggots . I've been NEET many times in my life, I've been wagie a good amount of times. I've been uni student , wagie mix. I've been just part time wagie part time NEET. Being full NEET for the long term was the worst EVERYtime. I wanted to off myself, because when you have free time all the time you dont enjoy it RETARDS. Especially when I know you subhumans stay on biz all day or play vidya. It becomes so mundane that you will try to do anything to distract you from your shit existence.

If someone can survive off the money , part time worker is the best comfy life . filling free time with different things is usually beneficial

Now in ending,
I know you will never ever meet a stacy and have a chance. But let's say the day comes. 'So anon what do you do?'
Oh nothing. I stay at home all day with no job or school and fap to anime while losing money in crypto.

lanklets are unbelievably delusional and annoying to listen to talk

7 months ago I convinced my doctor, psychologist and psychiatrist that I am schizophrenic and chronically depressed (I am not). 5 months after the first talk I have welfare that I will receive until I am better. (LOL) They also got me a small home, because I need "rest".

Cheating the system is laughably easy, just say you think you might be dangerous if left on the street, they would rather give you money and a home than risk you shooting up a school out of desperation.

I won the game, without ever playing it.

>>10721782
i actually enjoy being an attorney. I want to continue to provide free legal advise to people without means after I retire

>>10721811
yes, technically I can't take off a whole year and get paid and keep my job, but any time i take off I get paid. but since I like my job, I only take about 8-10 days off per year anyway. I've only taken 3 off this year to date

>>10721981
I currently have boatloads of freedom. I do anything I want on the weekends, can work remotely if i'm not in court or have meetings and I can leave the office for any reason at any time.

People who think every work in an office or firm is "wage slaving" are simply on the lowest part of the totem pole. working your way up gives you more of everything.

I'll be financially free by 50 to do whatever I want all while enjoying life now. laugh on the outside all you want, you're crying on the inside believing your going to "make it" with 100K chink scam coins that will go to zero in 2 years time.

I completely don't understand how someone couldn't be happy as a NEET. If the the problem is just "staying busy", just take on an ambitious personal or creative project. Make it into a 9-5 if you have to. You'd have to be the most droll, uninspired fucker in the world to go insane neeting. The only reason to be a depressed neet is if you're financially unsecure.

>>10722443
Oh, hear the ragie wagie scream in despair.

There is no objective proof of schizo. You can not do a blood test for schizo, or a MRI.
All you have to do is convince the psycho/psychiatrist that you actually have it.
The only talent you need is the talent of acting.

They listen to what you have to say, how long you have it (kek). You get medicine. And they will check if the "symptoms" get better. In the end the psychiatrist in communication with the doctor and the "welfare service" will make a decision.

>>10722369
>need to be productive and set goals to be somewhat happy
Learn to draw or play guitar lmao. There are so many things that people wish they could do but they don't do it because it requires so much time and dedication, but they just can't devote themselves to it because of their jobs which leave them too tired after work.

>>10722532
the problem with NEETs is that they don't have any real ambitions, which is why they're NEETs. they'll never be successful at anything because they're not willing to put in the work to even become adequate at their hobbies.

NEETs should be treated like Lepers, but placed on an island to compete for resources or die, all while being live streamed and with product placement for ads to generate revenue.

>>10722425
thinking it's a mystery is your problem. it's easily attainable for anyone, but most don't have the guts to do the opposite of all their peers. the useless spending most people do when they are young is what sets them up for failure later on. save as much money as possible (it sucks at first), invest and wait. it's that simple. it's like a snowball rolling down a hill. change your mind change your life. get out of your mental prison. later, fags, i'm going to the pool

>>10722532

exactly

i want to be NEET but my family are the shittest people ever with money so i grew up poor and will inherit nothing

they taught me nothing and i went to a shit school that also taught me nothing

now i work a shit job

These people aren't kidding. Their thought processes are so vapid they would go postal or kill themselves without a job.

Funny story, that phrase originated from people who had jobs (postal workers) and it drove them insane

>>10722555
And here's when it gets interesting. Once you /makeit/, why would you not spend the rest of your time playing the guitar to whoever wants to hear it? How much more than a guitar do you need for that? What if that's the career you want but can't have because of other brutal obligations? Some of those obligations are valid, some are fucking bollocks and with the current rules, literally a ponzi to make money travel to red tape. Waging gives stability because nobody trusts anybody, therefore why contracts, therefore why laws, therefore why nobody trusts lawmakers/lawspeakers, therefore why nobody trusts anybofy therefore waging. You can be part of the collective when you believe the collective gives a fuck about you. And if the collective doesn't just go play the guitar in the streets, it will make some people really angry, if you manage to sustain a family even angrier. But you don't really owe them anything if they already don't feel like your neighbors. The musician, the peasant, the warrior... they all want some level of dignity and that everybody else has their back. Everything else requires downsizing but we're trying to do the opposite and we'll see how that ends.

It's simple master/slave morality.
Wagies will never understand how to exist without a job, because just as >>10722369 explicitly describes, they feel completely lost. Were it not for some higher, external power directing them then they would be immediately at peril, due to their loss of security and direction.
Freedom is misleading, for it has positive connotations, when in fact the opposite is true. Freedom is chaos; freedom is dangerous. What would happen? What would you do? Humans crave structure and as such are creatures of habit, perpetually dependent on ingrained routines and simple cause and effect relationships.
Wagies cannot suffer freedom, and thus are slaves to their own primitive thought patterns, making them easy to enslave by those utilising higher thinking.
In closing, and to answer OPs question, wagies 'do it' by being unable to perceive any alternative. They lack courage and self-discipline; they are slaves.

This is why american millenial kids are so empty inside.

>>10723765

>unironically finding meaning and enjoyment in being a Shabbos goy

Slave morality

Wagecucks, especially leftist wagecucks, never ask themselves, "do you really HAVE to work?" They're so deep in their own inferiority context that they are unable to envision a way out of their slave-tier work-life.

They've allowed social expectations to control their very routine.

Getting rich off of cryptocurrency has become a point of ideology for me. I want it to happen specifically as a "Fuck you" gesture to normie society.

Forget having "fuck you money" - how about having a "fuck you life"?

How Normies do it:

>coffee or cigarettes (or both), the normalfag intakes this shit every morning and throughout the day to have enough energy to drag himself through the day
>normalfag is enslaved through paying rent because the normalfag does not own his home so working is preventing him from becoming homeless
>the normalfag drone is also enslaved by debt, if he stops working the bank will take everything away from him
>the normalfag is enslaved by peers, he has to compete in the rat race or lose his miniscule status which could lead to his roastie leaving him for a better man or other drones shitting on him, the fear and the shame is keeping him in line
>the normalfag is enslaved by roasties that drain his wallet one way or another and he needs the slavejob to afford it

The Normalfag NPC life usually ends after he worked himself to death and the destruction of his health.
In best case he retires at 67 and has 1 or 2 years of freedom before being shipped off into a retirement home where he talks demented shit to fellow former wagecucks

>>10724433

>>10724307

Mate everyone here wants crypto to fucking moon but is it possible? I do hope we all gonna make it, but be realistic

The thing I hate most about wagecucking is the 9-5 mentality. Honestly I would rather just work harder like 9-2, I could easily get the same amount of work done, but ohhhhhh nooooo everyone has to stay all these hours because otherwise you're seen as a slacker.

>>10724307

>Going to retire by 50

How much fucking money do you waste? The way I live, I can't imagine making that much for 5 years and not being ready to retire.

TGIF... right guys?

I like my job but I don't trust my job. I live very frugally and I am investing everything in index funds, preparing for the day they tell me to work 50 hours per week while paying me for 40. They think I ride my bike to work for exercise and bring my own lunch because it's healthy. They don't know that I do it because I literally do not own a car and because rice with beans is basically free.

Having the goal of being able to quit my job, instead of "Durr I wanna pay off muh truck" actually, ironically, makes me enjoy my job more.

>>10725786
burgers got expensive lifestyles. If i was making that money here i would retire in 3 fucking years lol

>>10725965

Russia? Those people are masters at not spending money. I've stayed with Russian families that live a comfy middle class lifestyle on the equivalent of less than $1000/month and shit's not that much cheaper there.

>>10721256
The law of averages. I guess a majority of people don't have extraordinary aspirations. Being average is ordinary and normal. Normal wealth generation means renting out time to do labor in exchange for labor rent. Simple life and whether a normie finds themselves content with it or finds it insufferable is up to them.

>>10726008
worse, south america. That wage would legit allow me to buy like 1-2 apartments per year, i could get 15-20 and live off rent before im even 35

this is why the ultimate blackpill is to be a single entrepreneur or investor and off yourself once your brain and body deteriorate

they do it because unlike 4chan incels the brains aren't fucked up on porn, so unlike us they will approach and make efforts on nasty goblinos, and ultimately procreate

this then obligates them to work many decades

life is a constant boot stamping on my head every night. this investing shit ain't helping, a whopping $161.73 (CAD, end my life) profit on 7k+ of mutual funds from October to today. i'll have to work until i kill myself before it ends.

>>10726684
You need to compound that shit. Yeah 7k gets you $150~

But save 7k every year for another 5 years

14k gets you $300~

21k gets you $450

28k gets you $600

35k gets you $750

42k gets you $900

but now you've compounded an extra ~3k so you're actually at 45k and you're making $1000 a year for nothing

also look for better funds, your returns sound shit

>>10726257
I've been a volneet for 1 year. What the fuck are you talking about? I'm in the best shape of my life, do whatever the fuck I want, when I want, hang out with people MORE than when I worked because I'm flexible around their schedules.

Mine are the opposite. They're the nicest people and have done really well with property over their lives. They have multimillions tied up in property, but not much liquid cash. They don't spend hardly anything, and still act as if they're hard up for money.

They're both retired and I'm trying my best to get them to spend some of their money and enjoy their retirement, but they wont.

>>10723148
It comes back to loans with usury backed by law.

Without that, it requires loaning money to people you trust and having a relationship with, and loaning (or just giving) the money because you want that person to succeed, and their success will benefit you and the community directly, not the profit.

>>10726975
Your community might have shit investment opportunities though. Abstracting investment supply into interest rates gets around that.

The problem is allowing loans to jack up consumption in the form of extravagant cars and diversity deans.

>>10726947
Perhaps being frugal is what brings them joy? As long as they are happy then what’s the point of trying to get them to spend money on shit they don’t care about?

By contrast my parents burn through their money and then stress about retirement, yet would be fine and set up every generation after them if they just were smarter about handling their money. My parents are nice people, but theyre typical left wing boomers who barely understand economics/finance and got lucky growing up in the easiest period financially in history

The reason investors hes rotate on South America is theres the threat of socialists coming along and fucking everything up. If it weren’t for that it would be rich as fuck.

Back in the 1910s Argentina was projected to have the largest economy by now, but countless economic fuck ups over the last century screwed them, and a large percentage of the South American population believe more socialism is the answer

>My parents are nice people, but theyre typical left wing boomers who barely understand economics/finance and got lucky growing up in the easiest period financially in history
that fucking feel
they are entirely dependent on real estate prices not going down because they will be completely broke at retirement without an inflated sale price on the house
>tfw all friends with immigrant parents have sweet inheritance lined up, a few had their parents give them the house or buy them a fucking condo
>meanwhile every white person i know is getting literally nothing
we deserve our replacement.

>How do wagecucks do it?

Lacking consciousness.

Wagie here, I do it because it's basically how I fund my side goal which is actually going quite well. I'm planning on quitting my current job soon so I can finally move on to my personal ambitions with the money I collected, not to mention there's also the friends I made while working and the stuff we do outside of the bullshit we have to deal with between retarded customers and our horrible managers.

Don't you guys have friends to hang out with when you're not mining?

Yeah, heaps

idk why the government doesn't have you neets picking up rubbish all day, i have written so many letters

Meh, why stop them from doing something they enjoy? I'm a no-coiner myself but I started to observe and try to understand how the cryptomarket works and it's pretty funny whenever their's a collapse.

>>10721782
Shut up commie. Some people are self-reliant and aren't stuck in a dead end job.

Are you me? I always come back to /biz/ when I see theres a big drop in BTC. Then when it stabilizes I leave again.

I'm preying for sub 5k. I can't wait to see the pinkies.

>>10727699
I actually got a minor interest in alt coins and was thinking of making some small investment just to see where it takes me. Thank God I still have my jobs on the side though so I'll never worry about going in debt.

>if you're not destroying the world through civilization and making your boss richer YOU'RE the parasite

What did he mean by this?

>As far as that which is of interest to us, namely, that which has to do with desire, to its array and disarray, so to speak, the position of power of any kind in all circumstances and in every case, whether historical or not, has always been the same.
>What is Alexander's proclamation when he arrived in Persepolis or Hitler's when he arrived in Paris? The preamble isn't important: "I have come to liberate you from this or that." The essential point is "Carry on working. Work must go on." Which, of course, means: "Let it be clear to everyone that this is on no account the moment to express the least surge of desire." The morality of power, of the service of goods, is as follows: "As far as desires are concerned, come back later. Make them wait."

I think I've finally figured it out.
NEETs are the modern realisation of John Galt's strike in Atlas Shrugged.

Hey Nic how you doing man, it's Tony. At least you keep a smile on your face.

I hope everything works out for you, the gov is giving me gibs to go to school and my child is on the way but you know that. Sorry I didn't grab you that iced coffee, probably going to off myself pretty soon.

All the best.

>>10721256
They do it out of necessity. That's why I don't make fun of wagies because they can't afford to tell their boss to fuck off or else they risk not having food in their belly, clothes their back, and a roof over their head.

Do the boomer or younger generation believe so too? When do you reckon the finance in South America will turn better?

That's a pseudo choice. Leave your work and what now? Can't pay for shit and you live buying shit.

The hardest part is gritting my teeth for people I actually like, being Norman faggots about crypto, making bitcoin dad jokes.

It's mostly because of my location. NY has one of the highest state taxes and then I have to pay again for being in NYC.

Tbh I could complain about the MTA but in general I think it's not as bad as people claim, other than a 1-2 days a month where everything goes to shit. It's bad, yes, and nowhere even close to other metros like Shanghai, Tokyo, even fucking Buenos Aires..but it gets me to where I want to go, usually.
Plus our city libraries are incredible. So many free books/audiobooks/movies, tons of services like being AC/cooldown centers in the summer, resume/interview prep every day, computer classes every day for both kids and adults, free lunch for kids during the summer...plus the city offers free Pre-K for everyone. I think free pre-k is probably the most important thing a country can do to improve its future long-term.
In any case I'm mostly ok with paying 4k a year to live here.

That being said, the city officials ARE crooks and embezzle tons of money to give it all to their construction contractor friends who jack up the prices by 2.5x. We could easily pay the exact same amount of taxes but provide much more for our city. I'd rather focus on this problem than reducing taxes.

>>10728981
Not at all, it hasn’t really caught on where I’m based. We have built good rapport with loyal repeat customers who usually book next years stay at the end of their current one. 12 years of uninterrupted growth, from a family run affair to a booming enterprise.

they work because they want to feed their family and take care of them. It’s not hard to understand.

aka go into cs and don't be a brainlet. You get paid a shit ton because you can solve problems, and it's easy as shit because most devs are retarded/spend too much time being sjw's

and this

>most devs are retarded/spend too much time being sjw's
can you explain the massive amount of nu-left trash in tech, i would have figured something that autistic and engineery would be fairly immune
seems like 10% are trannies, half are betas bowing down to their feminist overlords, 20% women claiming discrimination and then 20% normal people just doing their fucking job
y'all niggas need testosterone replacement therapy

>>10730559
can't explain it but the numbers are slightly off there

There is about 10% of us that go hard beta when we first start solely to make a name for ourselves/become critical to the business (aka get shit done fast and don't offend people). Then when they wouldn't possibly fire us, we go into idgaf mode - aka work from home, shitpost/troll in our work slack, talk shit to other devs, and get one critical thing done per month to stay important. Takes about 1.5-2 years at a place to get to this point.

Typically these groups of devs stick together since they can't stand the other 90% - so it's a lesser known group. Gilfoyle in silicon valley is the best 'media caricature' of this kind of dev.

but yeah, the general tech environment is garbage
