Whoever thinks making 70k a year for 40 years is going to bring them financial independence is stupid. If you can do it with 70k you can do it with 20k. The principal doesnt mean shit compared to the return

Because you are lazy.
Go get a commission based sales job. It will teach you everything you need to know about selling yourself, which is the key to success in life and business. Once you feel like you have a good handle on it, you will quickly realize that making money is stupid easy. That kind of job is great because your boss stays the hell off your back and out of your life as long as you can produce. And it's a great way to build self confidence.

dropped out of college. been trying hard to learn how to draw mainly, along with other things. spent money on highly recommended instructional art books, got supplies, bought videos online, take notes, copy, sketch, practice. still suck after like 2-3 years.

I've been working so hard towards this shit already that I feel like it'd be a waste of time and money to just shift gears to programming, as I'd have to spend another 1-2 years just trying to be decent, and who knows if I'd even be qualified to get paid then?

No wonder you're destined to be a wagie. Drawing is a hobby until you make money from it. It's not something that you start doing in the hope of making money. You go STEM for that. Thank me later, I just saved you a couple years of fruitless effort and self-hatred.

You're trying to self actualize instead of trying to make money.

Things like singing, drawing, playing instruments are hard has hell to turn into an income source.

If you want someone to hire you then you need to be able to help them make money.

Say no more to fantasy baseball, because now you're going to learn to play (and get good at) fantasy finance!

Do you smoke? Quit and throw that money in crypto.

Do you drink booze? Quit and throw that money in crypto.

Do you smoke weed? Cut back (you'll want to be baked for this game), and throw the difference in crypto.

Do you have a gym membership? Quit, find some other way to stay fit that's free, and throw that money in crypto.

Do you buy junkfood/fastfood/eat out a lot? Stop with that gross fucking shit, buy some real food, learn how to cook, and throw that money in crypto.

You have more money than you think. And every dollar you cut in expenses to throw into crypto now will be $1000 within 5 years. Stop wasting your one opportunity and start acquiring with everything you've got (that isn't debt you can't afford to service... that's just being dumb).

What's the point? There's way more volatility in this market. Stocks make sense for long term holds still (though I think we're topping so if you're not already in, don't buy in any time soon), but if your game is day trading there's no point wasting capital in day trading stocks at this point.
