That's what most NEETs realize. Working/college/whatever doesn't give you purpose. It doesn't give you direction. It's a trap. A fucking Con. You get suckered in.

>Oh if I work that means I'll have income lol!
Really? Well First you need a car. Not too bad at first. Then car insurance, rent. But you can't afford your own place so you're living with normalfags. You have student loan debt. There's a chunk gone. Then you have to pay in all sorts of other ways. You pay your time in commuting back and forth. You pay in the aches and pains from laboring. The mental strain wears you down day in and day out as you everything goes toward your job.

Does the average wagie break even? Nah. Truth is it's NEET or nothing. NEET LIFE BEST LIFE ANYTHING ELSE IS COPE.

Get a job through someone else who you know, ask around, don't just spam applications out, that's a demoralizing depressing sucker's game.

>>17359327
I am about to fucking break. Government takes a portion of my check, then half of my check goes to rent and loans. Leaves me with 1600 a month and its hard to invest meaningfully AND try and live a life. I abandoned being social in pursuit of getting good grades, but that just fucked me even worse and it clearly did irreversible damage to my psyche.

>>17359286
>I have student debt out the ass
why were you so stupid to fall for that crap?

Or unironically start your own business.
Being a desk wagie is like slavery.

>>17359327

>>17359346
Dollar cost average into PNK and plan your exit from your job.

>>17359347
Well I was 18 and believed in it. But I also didn't realize what a brainlet I was and I should have just gone into something I LIKE. I should have stayed in aero or electric, fuck

>>17359373
what have you studied?

>>17359286
>>17359346
Let me know if you're going to shoot up Walmart or Target so I know which to avoid

>>17359417
Mechanical engineering. To be "more employable", fuck

>>17359443
Haha tell me which you go to and I'll avoid it haha

>>17359346
>left over with 1600 a month
That’s a ton, how is it hard to not save that shit up; save that shit up and buy turnkey shit the Midwest

>>17359518
Bills, mostly. Medical shit, emergencies that keep cropping up. Oh and I can't stop gambling in crypto lol

They oversell the fuck out of engineering in college. Tell you you're going to make satellites and jet airplanes and shit. I designed and built 2 robots, then made my own high-end bike component.

Then you graduate and get a job. Your job is

>Sit in this cubicle
>Do what everyone else does
>The same way everyone else does
>If you don't do what everyone else does, or do something nobody else does, you're fired.
>If you spend your time off doing things that are not on the approved list of hobbies (mostly watching sports, swallowing things and talking about how old you are) that is technically not against the rules, but frowned upon.

>>17359539
I love that shit though. Im paid to do jack shit at work. My work is only relevant during certain times but it leaves me room to read news and invest in other things.

Only autist here cant handle it.

>>17359475

What industry do you work in? I also studied mechanical engineering and I draw ducts in ceilings now, while my coworkers constantly look for excuses to show off their knowledge of the building codes and the latest HVAC product lines. Fun fun fun.

>>17359601
Telecom. I basically make visio documents and do GIS for 8 hours a day for mediocre, sub standard pay. Feels bad man.

>>17359534
Just stop gambling and put $500 a month into PNK.

>>17359623
Shut the FUCK up.

>>17359628
I'm telling you how to make a lot of money anon.
In 2 years you will look at the price of PNK and either feel happy or sad, the choice is yours.

>>17359628
you should all in LINK instead

>>17359658
>>17359684
Poo in the fucking loo

>>17359689
so you want to wagecuck for the next 20 years in a shitty job?

>>17359689
If dubs you go into PNK.

>>17359713
Oh lol, well do you own research at least.

>>17359709
>>17359713
This isn't a crypto thread go shill somewhere else

Just go to some bullshit doctor and get diagnosed with autism so the federal government sends you money every month and you don't have to pay back any of your crippling student debt if it's federal

>>17359731
so you want to stay poor, in debt and wagecuck some shitjob forever?
Chainlink is your only way out, take it or keep waging wagie.

>>17359601
>>17359616
I also studied MechE and could only find a completely irrelevant analyst job with the state gov. I've been interviewing for state engineering positions that seem unbearable because they have to do inspections and deal with the public. I don't even think I have a chance because I have to compete with women who are environmental engineers. I want to go into webdev but I'm not sure if it's even worth it.

>>17359891
Best of luck, friend. Truly fucked up.

>>17359286
OH WAGEKEK
OH WAGEKEK
WOE TO THE SLAVE OF THE PAYSTUB

OH WAGEKEK

YOU TOIL AND SPOIL
FUCKING WAGEKEK

JEWISH PLAY MONEY
JEWISH TIME SINK
YOU COME HOME TIRED, HUNGRY, BARELY ABLE TO BLINK
CONSUME YOUR MEALS AND PISS IN THE SINK
FUCKING WAGEKEK

>>17359286
kek no debt here and I am about to retire at 25 from making money in stocks, then crypto then purchasing a business with that money - no education but 130-140 IQ.

Heavily considering going to school for art or law or something that I can spend my day thinking about as I won't really need to work.

Wagie

Im at my second job out of college making $25 an hour on a contract. How do I break this cycle of low paying hell?

good thread OP.. learnt a lot from here. Anyway, I think your mistake are getting into stressful jobs. You should look for the highest job that has the happiest workers. Top 3 are singers, firefighter, and massage therapy. Security guard is somewhere top20. I am a security guard and I will do this shit until I die.
>Sit in guard post for 12 hours
>Push button to raise/lower the gate bar
>Trade crypto during work and when I get home
>Other boomer guards are wondering how I can buy a superbike coming to work while being underpaid kek
feelsgood
>Older brother is jealous that I make more money than him even tho he works at a big4 company as some accountant or some shit i dont give a fuck
>Kindly educate him that his paycheck has turn off his brain to look for other ways and most of his salary went into his car, house, petrol, laundry, new suit and tie or some other shit that is related to his work just to impress people he dont care about
He gets defensive and go apeshit.. feelsgoodman
>"ok, your loss"
we are going to make it frens.. they dont even know what is the purpose of the creation of money and how it moves around.. they are chasing something that is unknown to them.. they dont respect money, thats why they are poor..

>>17360841
ugh I use to work at a B4 Accounting firm. Don't regret it because it got me to my current job, which gives me more money to spend on investments.

I do think your right that the environment makes people brain go like gloop.

>>17359286
>>17359346

Studycel detected.

>>17359286

>>17360873
Who are you on this chart?

>>17360896
Left and I regret it. Wasted my weekends working part time too.

>>17361051
Let's be honest, you weren't actually invited to any of those weekend parties anyways.

>>17361088
I was a few, yeah. But only for the first few years. Got really autistic in my last 2 years. It's weird, idk. Haven't dated since I was 19, but never had a problem with girls until I turned 21-22

>>17360841
>Security guard is somewhere top20. I am a security guard and I will do this shit until I die.

based. you are not the same anon shilling this security guard job on every topic, right? I must assume other anons are shilling that. To be honest feels comfy as fuck.

Btw I have a small discord server mostly focused on trading/crypto. Would be nice to have you there, fren. Server id is: TcbT8yY

>>17359756

the way this shit is being pushed here only makes me believe those shitcoins wil fall soon.

>>17360778
how do you even make $25 an hour? im still in my first job out of college making $15 an hour as a temp. shit sucks

>>17359747
if you default on student loans the government can seize part of your disability check.

>>17359346
lol I wish I had your problems
holy fuck

>>17361862
It still sucks friend

>>17359539
I was friends with this one kid who’d always put me down. He went to college, telling me he’s going to be a drone engineer. He’s going to be rich & powerful, and I should go to college and be like him because he’s going to make it.

Now he’s applying for some certification to survey land for 45k a year lol

>>17362482
update: engineering field technician. $25 an hour. But 80k in debt with interest.
