>5 year gap from finishing university to present day where I am a NEET

What are some good ways to fake this gap in my CV so it looks like I wasn't just shitposting on 4chan all this time?

This is the truth actually, but the unfortunate thing is I didn't really make any significant money with crypto and I tried a couple of online businesses ideas but I didn't make many sales. Basically did horribly at everything i've attempted in the last 5 years.

It's totally fucked. I checked jobs today and they want ludicrously motivated highly driven passionate people with degrees and 3+ years work experience just for some shitty mundane entry level job in marketing. Fucking joke.

>>13275503
I traded stocks, FX and crypto for 5 years. I made some money but net flat pretty much. I've tried a few bootstrapped businesses and still attempting a couple at the moment. It's all still ongoing, not like I lost everything and quit. I just haven't had anything that I can call a success yet and now I probably need to look at getting a job to continue. My degree is in Business.

This is all relevant experience that should be put on your resume. Just make sure you phrase the day trading stuff in a way that doesn't have you come across as a gambling addict.

You've got 5 years of junk experience that means an employer will just look at your CV like a graduate CV.

Don't let this stop you applying for jobs, once you get in, nobody will care about the gap anymore.

It doesn't really matter what you put down. Nobody is going to care much about 5 years of junk experience, best to not really draw attention to it.

Put in there something like ETC dev team so you get credability but it can't be verified. Then hang yourself.
