>JUST literally save money
This is how i know youre a neet. Its literally impossible to save money. Everything costs so much

I'm 34 with a college degree but I had pretty bad grades and never made a career out of it. Taught English overseas for years and managed to save some money. Now I have a baby on the way and not many job skills or opportunities. I wish I would've just learned a trade instead of wasting time and money in college.

cause normal people get into relationships and women are the biggest cog in the capalistic system. They want to keep up with the jones' , have all the shiny new stuff, big house, new 4x4 suv for the kids. And all the normal people are drowning in debt to keep up a facade of wealth

>>19698113

unironically this. Women are great if you find the right one and she wants to build something greater. But the majority of current year woman and people in general want to live the instagram/social media fake lifestyle. I moved a few months before corona virus hit thank god but I was living in LA and made 100k a year. That sounds like a lot to most people HOWEVER in LA average CA income taxes for a single person is 30-35k, so you are down to 70k net. Then average rent for a 1 br or 2br a shared roomate is 1000-1500 (lets say 1250 a month) so youre down another 15k now your at 55k net. Food is easily 200 a month. another 2-3k down for the year. Then every normie wants to go to the bar or lounge every weekend so your entertainment budget is another 3k so you are now down to 45k net for the year. If you purchase a car(which you for sure would at this salary range) will be 300-400 - 1000 depending on retarded you are (again cause everyone is a faker they all have new leased bmws with 800+ a month payments) so your 45k is now down to 38k potential savings. Im sure you then also will blow another 10k on student loan and frivolous star wars toys so your down to 28k possible savings. This is where that final possible yearly savings evaporates. IF you are dating almost any girl their they expect you to pay for almost everything in their life... so that potential 28k is now 0. I saw through it immediately with the chicks there so I never got that involved and managed to save 150k cash in 6 years and just finally bailed to use that cash for investing and a house in a smaller suburb in a non shitty city.

>>19698204
here in eu I could easily live normally and save quite a bit of money on a dead end salary but I have no expenses.
maybe you are too broke for where you live? living above your means? what is it?

>>19698323
you have a point here. I guess a lifetime of living in poverty has taught me to be cheap finally

>>19698368
maybe in my country I literally can't get into any education without prior education though

>>19698393
>tfw buying property is not a viable hustle in your eu country

>>19698113
90% of people who 'made it' still don't have any skills. They just lucked out by being offered a train ride. Me included. I'm 33 and closing in on a net worth of half a mil. I just do data entry.
My suggestion is to make shit up. Actually start a company and talk shit. Pretend you're Elon Musk. Get friends to say you're a consultant. The best consultant! Eventually you'll find a company who gets wet over your bullshit. Then they hire you to spew bullshit. Congrats. You're in middle management

>>19698113
You have to get some kind of skill and move into self employment in done way. You'll always be a broke commie with a victim mentality of you can't find a way to work for yourself

>>19698113
How do you get to 33 with no jobs skills or money?

>>19698113

sex work as a man doesnt seem that litty bruh

>>19698529
I would start a company but im a brainlet right now. dont have the practical know how to operate and evolve. even though i have multiple ideas id like to do

>>19698545
that would be ideal. but is it necessary if the pay is ok? I would make due with even below average salary rn. average and I'd be well off

>>19698549
drop out of school, stay neet for years, try school again, fail, drop out, try to get dead end jobs, fail, live on welfare, complacency, cope and repeat sort of deal

>>19698573
id like to save up a nice bankroll and try to flip it on stonks thats my gameplan but even savings and regular investment would be more than fine too

>>19698589
not suicidal for now (yet)

>>19698617
Just start a company on paper. That's typically enough to impress employers. They won't enquire about employees or revenue or stuff. Just say you had X clients and did what their job description says.

>>19698478
Except the government takes half you income if not more. You CANNOT save money. They made it hard to save money that's why normies have to take out loans to pay for everything

>>19699176
fake it til you make it hm

>>19699284
where? me living frugally i could save almost as much as I spend on living+food with a dead end salary
double that if I had an average job
if you rack up expenses sure.
the only thing most normies here need to take a loan for is housing really. and even to be able to get an apartment at all for that matter

>>19698617
Go on YouTube and look up Professor Messer - study for his A+ course. If you're NEET this should be doable. Get your A+, there are a lot of companies that hire with just and A+, no degree needed - you'll make a humble starting salary but it will have a good trajectory.

>>19698113
>quickest way to turn life around?
Begin with today. Analyze what you are doing and think before each action very carefully about the consequences.

Cdl truck job companies will pay you
Or Aston tech will get you your ccna ans a job in 2 years with either of these paths you'll make 70k a year
Quit all foods go carnivore no coffee cigs
Workout
You'll change your entire life within 6 months you'll be happy
Just dont ever commit to a girl theyre tricks

>>19698462
I noticed and did the same with a lower income, but I haven't been in a relationship in years. Now what?

>>19699792
Didn't explain properly
Companies will pay for your cdl or ccna
If you have 1k go to truck school and in a month you could make 50k in 2 years 70k
If you're good with computers and motivated go with Aston tech. You could make 80k in 2 years then if you got into security 120k

>>19699761
Wait people hire people with just an A+ wtf? Not op but im taking the sec+ in a couple days. Haven't even looked for a job since I didn't think I would get hired

>>19698113
Anon, you have to figure out the work situation. Not having a job puts a huge red flag over your head, especially if you're trying to date people. See below.

>>19698113

>>19699792
These suggestions aren't too bad. Try to aim for jobs that require minimal time/money investment in education (short trade school or a few certifications) and can lead to a decent salary. You will probably have to work your way up but it will beat staying a wagie at a shitty retail store for the rest of your life.

I'm so tired of this and I hate (((school))) and it gives me anxiety just to think of this
my life is eternally fucked
I guess at this i'm just gonna get a dead end job and save all my money and flip it until I make it

2 year associates degree in nursing at your local community College. Affordable and you should be making at least 70k right out of school. Plus you're a guy so you're golden. That's what I did 4 years ago after working a dead-end job. Making 80k right now, 100k+ with overtime. Now I'm all in crypto with expectations of possibly retiring after the upcoming bullrun.

Just turned 30, I own the house I live in and the house my mom lives in but I recently lost my job and am a highschool dropout, I have experience but for the past 2 years I have learned nothing new and been doing fuck all

At least I am not 33 though, your post gives me hope I can still turn things around

>>19700354
wtf I'm a 9th grade dropout and they gave me any job I wanted. How does your country exist? It's barely all we can do to weed out people physically .

>>19698113
maybe try one of these free courses in Java or Python and see if you are cut out for it: https://www.jetbrains.com/academy/

If you enjoy it and create a few of the apps in the tutorial then you can bullshit your way into a job using your little portfolio of apps kek

>>19699668
The only way to live frugally in the US is to live in a van(or share an apartment with 4 other guys), otherwise you have to take out mortgage/rent with half of your monthly income.

>wahh everything TAKeS too long!!
dude obviously your time is worthless. Might aswell spend it doing something thats not LoL you fucking idiot.

How about you actually take someone's advice instead of taking your own. Its pretty obvious you're shit at making decisions(Hence why you're 33 and a fucking useless idiot)

>>19700800(you)
>checked

why do you think they pay people 70k to have trades/skills? bc they're not easy to learn. If something was easy to learn then they wouldn't be paying that much you fucking idiot.

>>19700716
community college accepts anyone, no high school diploma necessary. That's how immigrants and fuck-ups get a foot in the door.

but i dont wanna molest little bois

>>19700800
true everything takes too long and time is indeed a factor. ironically because people did not give me good advice put me in the position i am now and have made bad decisions along the way too.
i don't play games anymore never played LoL either

>>19700824
true unskilled labour is literally worth jack shit and not even wanted. you need more education than needed to do the job here just to get some dead end job.
thats why I need to lie to even get a job. but I've gotten myself borderline dead end situation with no solution in sight

>>19698113
I'm younger than you but going on 30 year old boomer, just starting to learn coding. Yesterday I unironically was able to solve a problem at my cuck factory job by writing a few simple javascript functions. Learn something motherfucker you aren't even working so you have plenty of free time and the internet has endless resources. Get an adderall prescription if you need to

>>19701369
Plummer or electricians union

>>19701423
I'm actually super proud of myself so I'll discuss what I had to solve even if no one cares- we need to wrap 500 feet of metal ribbon on a spool by winding it on a single layer. the problem was that the circumference gets incrementally larger with each rotation because of the thickness of the metal ribbon, so you can't just divide 500 ft/spool circumference. So I wrote a when loop that increases the circumference variable with each iteration, adds the new circumference to a variable that represents the total footage, keeps a counter of the number of iterations, then prints out the number of turns required once total footage hits 500ft. It might be super basic shit but I've only been studying for a month and I've already been able to use it for something.

>>19701423
adderall is not prescribed here and you need a long diagnosis to be able to get adhd type meds. prolly have it though
how would I motivate myself to learn some coding and it wouldnt even have any real life substance
its hard out here

>>19701442
does not help me

>>19701529
cool boom

>>19701883
Have you ever done adderall? You pop some and just start working on something for hours straight. Obviously you need the initial drive to get something but it'll help tune out almost everything else

>>19701883
Also just search youtube videos on html and start with designing a basic 90s tier webpage. Then you move on to styling it with css, then you learn javascript to make it interactive. There are so many fucking resources out there that are free or nearly free

>>19701883
If you have no other obligations you need to just sit down and study html/css/js for 6+ hours a day for a year straight and you can get really good at it. Maybe buy a few $10 udemy courses. Personally I need stimulants because I legit have adhd and have been using them for studying since I was 15. Fair warning if you do decide to get adderall prescribed or on the black market you will get hooked on it. Not necessarily physically but definitely psychologically. Once you use it for studying you won't be able to think straight or focus without it. It seems like you have no focus to begin with so that's why I suggested you try it out.

>>19698113
>quickest way to turn life around?
Now.

>>19700600
its illegal to live in a van in the US

>>19702236
No

>>19702261
>>19702300
Adderall doesn't barely exist here as a med. I dropped out of school at 15 and never been able to find interest in things unless massively stimulated so maybe adhd
If I spent 6 hours a day Searching for jobs I could probably get one faster. Wouldn't that be more lucrative than trying to git Gud at coding on my old ass pc with no clear end goal in sight.

>>19702304
Ha

>>19702472
Lol

>>19701883
is there any technical education school in your country

>>19702523
You don't have to learn to code, I'm just offering you an option that you have. Whatever you end up doing you need to start right fucking now though

>>19702523
it stops being lucrative when there are no unskilled jobs on offer

what is the clear end goal that you want, nobody knows for certain what's going to happen tomorrow

>>19700315
this. Last time i checked they were offering up to 40k in sign up bonuses.

>>19702700
in the USA the age limit to enlist is 35, i don't know about whatever country OP is in, it might be higher or lower.

>>19698113

I save around 1500 a month and that means I can buy something in three centuries. Taxes are too high, too many niggers and arabs destroying the system.

>>19702523
I mean it. I know you're looking for specific answers and suggestions and that's not so wrong of you to be seeking that but you should be taking action right now before you get that overlooming anxiety and depression from thinking about your line all over again.
I used to hang around with neets years ago, they were all lonely, virgins, had issues, etc. I never found those characteristics or bothersome but one of the things that pissed me off was this acknowledgement of what they lack and what they love and being scared of commitments. This could range from finding a woman to love to wanting to write their own book based on what they're passionate about to being scared of having to be honest and confessing they never worked in all their wasted years in their CV for a job.
Eventually, I've managed to convince some of them enough for them to lead normal lives though occasionally hanging around online or being on 4chan still to escape from normiehood too much. Yes, even the guys in their 30's so you are not as irredeemable as you think you are.
Start acting now. Look and apply for jobs even if it's rough out there, this can even mean internship/apprenticeship if you can do it. Start exercising, eat well, get a sleep schedule, make friends, get a hobby, take a break from this website for yourself time to time, there are so many things you can still do and they are all in your control, you just have to commit and keep at it.

>>19702820
that's pretty good. that's what I could save with the average persons pay here if I lived frugally (low rent low food no other expenses)

>>19703008
literally just save it

>>19703032
I have the basic idea but I'm bad on taking action. no I don't. sorry lol

>>19702878
economic hurdles is my only problem honestly. I will keep trying even though the situation is dire

>>19698368
haha "pays exceptionally well". Ya fucking right. With trade school I was getting paid 14 an hr start with no guaranteed pay raise, shit work, and shit transportation (many miles away). Assholes everywhere too. I also see online 18 an hr after 3 yrs and journeyman getting paid 25 an hr. Thats trash for the knowledge they have. Los Angeles btw

>>19698545

this seems bad. with even a dogshit pay I could save almost 40%
if I had more normal average salary it goes up to almost 55%
this is with no expenses except average living and food and some utilities
eu taxes btw

>>19703194
Everyone thinks they have the basic idea. The ones that execute, get a decent job, and eventually buy a house. Then they keep doing what they were doing, and their boiler breaks. And then they pay that and just before getting hole, their cars transmission starts to act up. All of this continues ad nauseam until it's 30 years later and you're celebrating that you're finally done paying off your home, woo hoo! The problem is that you're now in your 60's, irrelevant professionally, and only have 5 years to make your lifes worth of cash before being stuck on the government teet as you rot away in every sense of the word.

The American dream.

I'm 31. Just finished going to trade school for welding. i am dealing with a back injury and when it flares up I am basically useless. First job, first week, major flare up because of heavy duty ironworking.
Now I'm sitting here wondering where I'll go and what I'll do. Thinking of going to India to learn to code because it seems to be the cradle of most IT genius' these days.
Bangalore especially, lots of bootcamps there.
Any thoughts? I'm from Canada.
Also apparently Germany is a good place to move with IT experience, much less competition and good wages/cheap rent. I am a german citizen.

>>19704092
Uhh... dude? You are in the digital age, just pirate tutorials and books and learn them by yourself at your own pace for free. You don't need anyone else to spoonfeed you the same information and then pay them for it.
Udemy currently has the beginner python lecture for free and it's only 9 hours or so. It should have notes and stuff too I believe? Python is a simple language, try it and see if it is for you.
https://www.udemy.com/course/automate/?couponCode=JUN2020FREE
If you can read and write you can learn how to code yourself, too many free resources everywhere. Teach yourself, build a portfolio or get into some apprenticeship/internship for professional training/learning experience.

>>19698113
I’m going to offer you real advice the neets here will shut down immediately because they are retarded and unable to put in the work

Learn to code
Take a front end web developer boot camp, build a portfolio, get a job with a startup, then work in corporate.

>>19704761
i tried to learn python, shit is complicated.

I learned life the hard way. I had the boomer mentality of tie your boot straps and get your hands dirty. I kept working hard , like 60 hours physical labor, and was scrapping through life. Started dabbling with investing. Learned that you need to make your money work for you. That I would make monthly deposits to invest. Play the market. Much more money than I would have made killing myself weekly.

Quite poetic reading through all the replies on this thread because it quite obvious there’s something missing in your guys life yet you manage to cope by telling yourself “had I only got a different degree, made x money, or done a trade.”

The poetic part is that deep down, you really have zero idea what it is in your life you are missing so you assume surrounding yourself with materials or working long hours in at a job making 300k would somehow satiate this void inside of you.

On your deathbed, do you believe that your final thoughts would be that you wished you had worked more hours, that you wish you would have made more money, that you wish you would have partied more, done more drugs, consumed more media, lived in a bigger house or driven a faster car? Ask yourself this question with all seriousness. Think about death. I mean really ponder about the idea of death and try to understand the idea that nothing in this life is ever permanent.

Think of every popular story, one which a hero emerges. Think of the similar archetypes that emerge from them. It could be iron man, Harry Potter, the lion king, or classic literature like the odyssey, Abraham religious books, the Epic of Gilgamesh etc. and what meta-philosophy do they all share? The hero who digs deeply into oneself and over comes their fears.

Think about a Dragon, a scary reptilian creature that is omnipresent and breathes fire. It’s an amalgamation of ones inner demons. Ones personal struggle. The hero is he who confronts the dragon and slays it. You cannot protect yourself by building a bigger castle, or hiding underground, or running away forever. The hero is revealed once that head of the dragon is cut off.

Life is about the journey. To live is to suffer, but to prosper is to find meaning in the suffering. Would you rather live with plentiful wealth and many externals, but miserable in mind? Or would you rather live with plentiful virtue but no materials to your name?

Maybe I should rephrase the question as such so you won’t be too hasty to turn your nose at me and act with a high brow. Just know I’m only giving honest advice that has helped me in my life. What you chose to do with it is your own free will, which is the beauty of life.

Does being broke really scare you? Or is it the judgement of being broke which is scary to man? In the same line of thinking, does death truly scare or a man or is it the judgement of death that is scary?

I was there too then became a plumber. Not going to say it was easy but way easier than I thought it'd be. 2 years later I'm a completely different person. Depressions gone, anxiety's gone. Helped me evaluate my life clearly, and cut out the toxic people leaching off me in life. I'm cracking jokes all the time too at work, and even though I'm the most junior guy in my crew everybody loves me.

Weirdest thing is how when I talk they all look and listen to me. When we're walking to our cars they gravitate around me unconsciously and I'm the middle of the group. I'm not used to this since I was like 10 years old. After that the despair took over my life and I isolated myself for years.

You have to take risks in life sometimes.

Unskilled college dropout, I got a job delivering mail in a rural area with a relatively low cost of living. Not going to say it's glamorous, but it beats retail by a mile. Decent choice for trying to kickstart your life, no job history required and the job suits the antisocial type fairly well.

How would that really work? Like telling to everyone or specifically to the company? Or maybe through reviews in the company website?

Moreover, did you start as a consultant in the company? How did the change to data entry happen?

Did A+. Only got interviews for bullshit jobs that pay less than security guard makes.

Need at least a CCNA now in order to get an okay entry level job. Security+ is good in America because it's required by Department of Defense so everyone thinks it's an amazing certificate.

Repairing a boiler only costs $500. Replacing the whole boiler is $2200 and has a 15 year warranty. I can save $2200 in a few months when I was working min wage.
