I'd actually be curious to discuss this but I'm thinking this is probably just an attempt to frazzle up folk.

What do you do if your NEET lifestyle threatens to leave you without shelter?

>>330006

>>330008

>>330010

How do you do things like buy food, purchase games, or have a place to live if you have no income? Did you start with money and game investments or what?

What about girls. Have you guys managed on coming to terms with having to lower your standards on the physical side successfully?

>>329982

How many NEETs actually spend their time reading Nietzsche or Aristotle, or leaning a language? Not many, I would imagine.

Let us start with the word 'Necessity'.

Let my fellow posters share citations of evidence covering how much man-power is necessary in the 21st century.

I would think that if it turns out that all of humanity can be fully supported (every individual having their needs meet: healthy food, clean air and water, good clothes and shelter, love and respect from their fellows) with less than full employment then it is time to start shifting away from the goal of full employment...

I am of the (not-backed-up-by-evidence-because-it-is-just-4chan) opinion that factors such as a shift away from Conspicuous Consumption and consumerism, increased machine automation, cybernation, networking, big data etc. that in fact all human Needs can be met with a very low percentage employment, once these already existing methodologies and technologies are actually put to use in achieving this goal, rather than the current goal of Profit Over People(TM).

Of course the system of survival being dependent on monetary income has to end. A transition away from our present predicament might be through the global implementation of Universal Basic Income or whatnot.

In such a system many (most?) people would be free to follow the pursuits of their hearts, and the few that did work would be held in high esteem for being the people who make this system run - this and the simple desire to make the world a better place would likely act as the large driving forces for seeking employment...

>>330034
If your parents weren't complete losers, they'll have left you with everything you need to live the rest of your life.

>People responding seriously

The exact same image has cropped up numerous times. What the fuck is wrong with you.

>>329988
That image is total bullshit but I admit it does rustle my jimmies a bit.

When I was a NEET I couldn't do anything. I had no money at all.

Now I have a car and ultimate freedom. I can go anywhere I want. I can buy anything I want. I feel freer than I did when I was a NEET.

>>329982
>neet
>well behaved
>clean
>learn
>making may may to justify pitiful existence

I wonder if I had no desire towards material things. If all I needed was simple and cost very little. If I had no desire to find a woman and if I didn't care what people thought of me. It'd be even better if I had friends just like me... Then, and only then, I'd be truly happy.

Even having tons of money, girls on my dick, a house, early retirement, successful friends etc etc will not make me truly happy, I know that. I'll have to work so hard for that shit, I'll be grinding myself to please other people, I'll forget about what I think or who I am or want to truly be... Trapped around social norms and competition, to die have only pleased other people.

I'm not a NEET, but being one is being truly happy.

>>330025

the argument isn't that they do those things, but that they can do those things. But they choose to watch anime,play LOL or DOTA and masturbate to waifus.

I imagine a NEET not as a living thing, but an existing thing. Like a lamp.

One of my friends is a NEET. Here's how most of our days go:

Me: "Hey man, want to grab some dinner?"
NEET: "Sure, if you don't mind treating me."

Me: "Hey I just got off work (it's 6-7 pm), want to hang out or play some games?"
NEET: "Wait until my raid is over, want to play at midnight?"

NEET "Hey anon, one day can you just give me some of your paychecks so that I can buy more stuff to let me do nothing for months at a time? Thanks."
>mfw

Currently NEET and I want to snap out of it, being 19 and a professional slacker is the god damn american dream and just by playing smart and not getting someone pregnant or getting an addiction or arrested puts the entire world in front of you. But now I'd rather work towards anything than just float around bored 24/7.

>>330047

It shouldn't NEETs would be masterrace if they actually did something with their abundance of the most valuable asset (time).
Unfortunately most don't. So while there is some merit to what that trollpg is saying in that people who work sacrifice their most valuable asset (time) for one of lesser value (money) at least they are more productive than your typical NEET who does nothing with themselves

>i can do anything i want with my spare time
>proceeds to do nothing

>>330167
>yfw all those things are supplied automatically with only intervention of the >1% who continue working

>>330006

Well, I worked for about ten years, and saved furiously, and paid off my house and vehicle. Now I have enough money to live frugally for decades, indefinitely with a little under the table job.

>>330409
>yfw the most productive people on Earth say fuck it and all migrate to the moon to watch NEETs fight each other over the last rolls of toilet paper

>>330412
Why would they want to leave? They have a much better lifestyle than NEETs, and have their pick of mates.

The NEET problem is a temporary one, in any event. It is caused entirely by central bank policy, and will quickly end once they can't prop up their fake economy any more. The more NEETs there are, the quicker that collapse will come.

>>330409

For the world you know it to exist it takes about 70% of people working near full time.

It would definitely take more than 1% of the world working to farm, generate electricity, manufacture, mine, teach, pick up garbage, etc.

The world is a lot more complicated than you think.

>>330083
>I imagine a NEET not as a living thing, but an existing thing. Like a lamp.

>>330426
>Implying automation won't eliminate a huge and increasing number of jobs over the coming decades

The >1% are there for maintenance. They aren't farming or whatever else.

Really, we don't even need teachers anymore. Online education is superior to what you get in a classroom. Everything else on your list is primed for automation.

When that happens, NEET could easily become standard, only at that point, NEETs would have far more economic power than they do now.

Its an interesting dilemma. I work 40 - 48 hours a week at a job that gives me no skills and has a glass ceiling preventing me from ever being in charge of managing the actual place. I sacrifice the most valuable asset (time) for another asset (capital). Ive worked there 3 years so thats about 6200 hours and realistically probably slightly higher than that. However its important to point out that 1 hour is spent getting ready for work and 1 hour is spent winding down from it. So really that actual number for time sent as a result of work is more closer to 7800 hours. 2200 more hours ( 1 year of work) and that's 10000 hours which is the magic number for time spent needed to master a skill. So if i spent the last 3 years living on welfare and with parents doing something like say learn and instrument while studying music id probably be pretty good at it. Maybe enough to join a small time band or orchestra team which could be the kickstart to a fulfilling career. However the trade off this is since i spent that time learning a skill i would have no money saved which means im not financially secure (or free). This could result in stress to perform which can be bad for health.

To be continued?

>>330456
The point im trying to make is its a trade off and people are always fearful of regret. Im afraid to quit my job not because im afraid ill starve. I saved $23,000 in 3 years which is about 3 years of workless living so im not going to have to hand out resumes soon. Im afraid to quit my job because im afraid of it ending up being the wrong choice down the line. This concept actually dosnt make alot of sense. How can a personal choice be wrong? I think alot of it is because ive been conditioned to take orders and be fearful of the idea of choosing for myself and living with the consequences.

Ive been think of working for another year and then ill have enough for 4 years off work. If i practice something (i dont know what yet) for 8 hours a day for 5 days a week ill develop a skill and maybe become self employed. The job i work offers no skill development anyways so if the 4 years i spend learning something fails i can just find a similar job because i already know im capable of doing it.

I was a neet for several years after dropping out of high school. Worst years of my life. I don't even remember much from it because I did nothing with myself and every day was the same and it has all melded together in my mind to this big pointless hole in my life. I pissed away years of my life for nothing. Being a wage slave definitely has some downsides but it has taught me to put my free time to more productive use, and I'm putting aside a lot of money each month so when I one day figure out what I want to do with my life, I'll have the funds to make it happen.

dude, you need to ease yourself into a regimen like that. from such a cold start, you'll burn out in no time. just get some shitty part time job and then work on whatever you want to develop with the spare time. it will give you the motivation to structure your time better, and it will definitely keep you from running your plans to a likely screeching halt due to a combination of unpreparedness and over-ambition.

ONE DAY IN THE FUTURE, YOUR CHILD WILL LEARN ABOUT THE “NEET”, AND TELL YOU ABOUT IT, AND YOU WILL SAY “YES, I WAS ONE THOSE”.

i do agree with the authors perception on most employees being "slaves" to the capitalist system and sure the exploitation of the working man by the 1% is a bad thing. what i don't like about it is that it mostly encourages egoism and lazyness. there just has to be a functioning eco-system.

If you are over 18, living with your parents isn't free - it costs you your dignity.
While you're lounging around your parents' house playing vidya, do you ever have a little voice in your head that says,
"Am I still living in my parents' house? I should put down the controller, gather up some self-respect, and get my life together, like a man."

I don't understand how anyone sane could stand being NEET. I was in-between jobs last year for about three months, and I was going insane by the end. For the first few weeks it was fun, but eventually it got so boring and feelings of worthlessness came on.

>>331469

When the average rent is $1800 per month, staying with your parents while saving money like mad to buy a house is the smart thing to do.

>>331555
I think as long as you don't have a real job but are going to school and help out around the house, it's okay to live at home.

But once you get a full time real job, it's time to move out. Don't be one of those 'hurr durr I make 50k a year, but I need to live at home for 5 more years to save for a house' faggots.

>>331498

>Don't be one of those 'hurr durr I make 50k a year, but I need to live at home for 5 more years to save for a house' faggots.

No that is just stupid. If all it takes a 5 years of saving while living at home with parents to buy out-right your own home vs moving out and get stuck with a 30 year mortgage. I'd rather be the hurr durr faggot anyday.

All that time for gaming and getting drunk starts off fun but no longer being self reliant and having no money and future starts to wear on you in time.

You don't want to be a slave to the world, but it's alright for your parents to slave away just so you can be comfortable.

>>331785
Yeah, the only reason I was ever NEET was because I felt like killing myself all the time.

No energy to do anything, just wanted to die.

I would have too, if I didn't start feeling guilty about my brothers and possibly mom feeling shit if I killed myself.

Being a NEET isn't cool.
It isn't being free.
It isn't better than working at some shitty job that you hate.

I still feel like killing myself sometimes, but now I mostly feel nothing. Kind of a numbness.

Don't even lie to yourself, no one WANTS to be NEET.

i haven't worked for the man in 5 years and just make odd cash selling shit on ebay when i need it. it's the life! i spend my days doing whatever i want. chilling with friends, reading books, studying german, interneting, making music, it's fucking awesome. the only problem is that i can't technically save for retirement into those nice tax free IRAs without a real job, but i'll be getting some part time gig soon.

See I'm at uni now, next year I guess I'll move back in with my parents, and pay them something for living there... will still be much cheaper than living on my own.

You should really give them what you can... Your parents I mean.

How is your crippling lack of wealth making you feel?

>>331985
>How is your crippling lack of wealth making you feel?
it's not something i value, so it has no affect on me. my only monetary concerns are future ones, like health care and retirement, and i'm going to do something about that by getting a part-time job and putting all of my earnings into IRAs and HSAs. money outside of that is meaningless to me. i wouldn't have anything to spend it on even if i had any. my consumer life is minimalist, and i own almost nothing besides some clothes, a computer, and a few synthesizers for my music hobby. and traveling to distant places doesn't interest me, i can find a world in my own back yard. i wouldn't have it any other way.

and yeah i do like the idea of giving my parents more money, but they're pretty wasteful and don't really need it as it is.

>>331469

Keep pleb.

>>331785
The parents are most likely the reason why someone becomes a NEET. they didn't raise you properly, and most likely abused you when you needed their help. They're simply paying the price for not raising you to be a functional member of society.

You fags should stop blaming the neets, it s not like these people can one day get up and decide to be a non-neet. What they need is to be left alone and be given the chance to figure out how to live the way they want.

Ridiculing NEETs just makes the problem worse.

>>332104
Majority of NEET-ers aren't NEET because they decide to be. I don't know why people think that they are.

I've seen NEET become so from extreme circumstances, or just having absolutely no support whatsoever (which contributes to NEET having difficulties making decisions for instance).

So you're absolutely right.

>>332192

This is exactly how blacks think. It's not their fault they are poor ghetto trash. It's how blacks are raised in a white privileged world.

At some point, most people grow up and take responsibilities for their own actions.

>Oh, I'm a loser in life? Well, I made some bad decisions, but am working to make the problem better.

But NEETs on the other hand:

>Oh, I'm a loser in life? It is all my parents' fault. Stop ridiculing me! Just leave me alone in peace while I masturbate to My Little Ponies. The problem will probably solve itself.

>>332720
That was before Obama and the economic collapse.

And just like the blacks, when you stop taking care of NEET's they turn to a life of crime because they're the only ones willing to hire.

Think about which one you'd rather have.

This thread is really sad, but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to feel sorry for the NEETs or just laugh at them.

There is nothing more depressing than wasting your entire life dependent on your parents and spending your entire day on the internet.

You're going to blink twice and wake up 35 years old one day and realize you've wasted the most valuable thing in your life.

Keep calling people who work wage slaves. Keep blaming feminism, jews, politics, etc. It still doesn't change how depressed NEETs actually are.

>>332817
So we have to support NEETs because they may become criminals?

In reality, the law of 'survival of the fittest' takes precedent. NEETs will either adapt and gain marketable skills or die or go into criminal activity eventually winding up in prison. You can't just continue to support someone else's unhealthy lifestyle because of muh feelings.

>>332836
>Change "NEETs" to "wage slaves"
>Change "dependent on your parents" to "dependent on your employer"
>Change "entire day on the internet" to "entire day working"

Unless you got lucky and made it big your "freedom", while in a different area, is no greater than that of most NEETs.

Congrats if you did though!

>>332858
You're still taking care of them when they're in prison. In many cases prisons take better care of them than they would ever find in the real world and they won't need marketable skills.

Because it shows that you are willing to just take off randomly. Employers don't want someone who will just say "going to Asia for the year, bye lulz" during their busy season.

6 years in a 9-5 working my way up the corporate ladder, the moment i want to do something for myself i'm a NEET

ok

>>332999
That's NEET talk son. Best go work some overtime to get it out of your system.

How is one free living out of the wallet of another?

I'd rather chose my employer, earning money off the virtue of my work, than forced to the most convenient hand that will feed.

This is why wage slaves are worse than NEETs

>than forced to the most convenient hand that will feed

that's what you are doing though. you are just a NEET that has being tricked into working for it.

>>332955
This entire thing is bullshit.

So we are supposed to be working constantly and never use our earned money for fun things when we feel like it?

The system is fucked.

Money has no importance to me, (though it is a requirement in the things I like to do) so I work at a golf resort as a dishwasher. I love the job and I get paid really well, and there's a good chance I"ll end up being able to run a multi million dollar business in the next few years, so money won't be a concern, but I will work, making my own products, running a business, and investing. Once I'm rich enough, I'll do the things I love, which including physical activity and thinking, in general, and work at the production plant whenever I damn well please.
I'll be so fucking rich I won't care, and I'll still pay the person for working the shift, because being a good person is simply more important than keeping all the money.

That's what retirement is for

It's the sad truth. When I dropped out of high school I was giddy as hell about how I would spend my free time.
I was going to learn German, master woodwork, work out constantly. But guess what happened?
My body went into a "decompression" after 12 years of schooling and literally ALL I wanted (still want) to do was stay up late as fuck, sleep in to the late afternoon, watch TV and browse 4chan.
And with every day that goes by, mastering woodworking just sounds like more of a pain in the ass.
You see, the issue with most (not all) NEETs is their inability to see into the future. If you were a lazy, unmotivated fucker in school or at your last job what makes you think you'll be any different at home?
You have to know your mind. Things can get very real very fast as a NEET. Your father gets laid off, TIME TO FIND A JOB EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE NO WORK EXPERIENCE.
Your parents kick you out? You better hope to fuck you have good enough friends that will let you stay with them for any extended period of time with or without a job.
NEETs are incredibly vulnerable. Especially the ones who depend completely on someone else like their parents.
I don't believe in being a wage slave, and I would rather live in a commune with dirty hippies than work a job that I hate.
But as a NEET, it's essential that you maintain a realistic mindset and goals.

There is no fucking way parents can save enough of money for rest of NEET's life. For couple of years? Possible. But no way for 30 years.

And that's before we consider inflation that will eat savings like hungry whore eats dicks.

And that's before we consider funerals cost. These bitches ain't cheap, anon.

There are hidden costs everywhere and you know what do you have as a result?

When we buried my grandma, in the end of the process we lacked one grandma and one grand of money.

If all my relatives will kick bucket, even if I sell all apartments we own and move to nowhere, I'll last only couple of years. Couple more if I'd start to take loans from shady banks and individuals first to buy food and then to cover previous loans.

Well, technically it's possible to live rest of the life this way, the problem is I don't want rest of my life being ended by shady loan sharks and their shady guns and knives.

Getting a skilled labor job or making shekels by contributing something worthwhile to society like entertainment or ideas, isn't too far fetched for a NEET.

I'm currently experiencing what a NEET is right now (just graduated and don't start work until July) and it's pretty nice for a couple of weeks or maybe even a month, but I honestly don't understand how you guys do this for months or even years. Just playing video games all day and browsing the internet gets boring as fuck.

That's what vacation is for.

Want to go to Disney World? Put in for a week's vacation a month or two in advanced.

People are retarded.

That's why you sell the corpses and buy a cheap coffin.

I would hardly call what you do the "master race".

NEETs have been around since the beginning of time. I'd guess maybe 5% of NEETs are the Master Roshi, Leonardo DaVinci types. The other 95% of you are lazy, freeloading, parasites, that are happy being sheep. You have no purpose in life. No driving passion. Content to merely "be" and float around like a plastic bag in the wind.
