Who here has pretty much nothing going on in life other than hoping crypto makes them rich?

[Anonymous No.10904339]

Ie. working a job you don't like, no girlfriend/relationships, not much of a social life, spend most of the time depressed, etc. But hoping that crypto will let you make it one day (or at the very least give up meaningless wage slavery).

That's pretty much me, luckily I have just about enough in crypto that if we have another bull run, I should just about make retirement money and then I will see what other freedoms that will bring. But if it doesn't work out I probably will not make it.

Theres gotta be some of you here. Share your stories

You could at least spend zero of the time depressed and instead work out.

Go buy a stationary recumbent bike, pedal it for a year and a half. Watch TV/Youtube/Twitch etc.. while burning through 330 calories in half hour increments.

Then make yourself happy by buying all the ice cream and hi calorie food thats decent quality and eating the shit out of it.

Then buy a bench or leg press.

We have a cheap house in the countryside, about 5 years of mortgage left, after that I'm seriously considering leaving my job and living just with part time jobs and passive income.

Yup. I started 2016 off pretty damn well. Cute gf, going on 5 years with her. Good career in I.T. getting kicked off, was about to graduate with a degree in Info Systems.

In mid 2018 I have like two friends I can go out to a boomer bar and drink with and that's it for my social life. GF left me when her health improved since she figured she could now score better than me. Career imploded, took a contract job that I shouldn't have and now I'm a year and a half unemployed while everyone screams to me about how incredible I.T. is. Had to leave my apartment and move back in with my parents. I live in ghetto central St. Louis. I'm extremely fucking depressed and anxious and very seriously wanted to kill myself 3 months back.

I have zero debt though and XMR/ETH has been good to me. I intend to ride this shit to the bottom if it goes that way. I also hope past patterns repeat themselves and my 480 XMR will get me to multimillionaire status in 5-10 years.

>Having more money cannot not guarantee happiness.

You don't need to be a bitcoin millionaire to live a quality life. You just need good people in your life. Make the best of life. You get out what you put in. Make new friends & be more out going. Spend less time on the computer. Travel the world and find new hobbies. Many millionaires struggle with drugs, alcohol, and depression because that's all they have to look forward to once they get over their materialistic possessions. Many millionaires file for bankruptcy because they actually spend more then they can afford. Having a steady job is a good balance in life. Too much free time can change your perspective. It's good to be busy. Even if you consider yourself fat, ugly, and socially award - there are people out there for you.

Oh man dude, tell me about it. I lived for one year in Madison, WI, and despite it being a rough time of my life I still love that city. I have family in Ithaca NY, outside Boston, and a girl I dated for a few weeks up in Queens who all tell me to gtfo and move to them. Thing is I'm terrified of leaving the few friends and family I have left here. Probably because everything else is so shit, they are the only things I have to fall back on. But still. This is home and I hate to bug out.

I appreciate your offer, though I don't know what the fuck I'm doing with my life or what I should do. I'm trying to look at the bright side of things here, and one of them is I can basically start over in any field I want now, since my I.T. career is basically back at square 1 anyway.
