You can also go to work and still take it easy.
Taking it easy isn't doing nothing for the rest of your life.Well for some it is, but really it's more like mindset that enables you to have lots of shit happen to you while still being able to smile and be like "well whatever"

>>7297267
Get out KS devs.

Made a lot of money from fxopen.

>>7297279
>Work
Get out of /jp/

Move to Europe.
Problem Solved.
Government pays all of your bills and gives you free money, you don't even need a medical condition.

>How do I earn money without effort?
If it really were that easy, why would anybody still work? It just isn't possible.

You better not be shitting me, cause I am packing up as we speak.

Yesterday I applied for a job at two locations.

I was very pleased with myself of having mounted the courage to do that.

But then it hit me, "oh crap, I applied for a job!" That means I'm gonna have to answer the phone when they call me. Then I'm gonna have to show up to some place I've never been. I'm gonna have to do things I've never done. With people I've never met.

As a NEET, this is a very stressful situation.

>>7297324
I don't mind putting effort into it, as long as I don't have to actually leave the house/interact directly with other people too much.

>>7297330

Writer. Not even that hard, going by the quality of stuff that gets printed.

>>7297328
I know that feel.
I've used a Phone about 4-5 times in the last 6 years, I feel very awkward and nervous when I'm on the phone for some reason. I always end up just repeating myself and asking them to repeat them self, I always get worked up and it stresses me out. Then if you get through the phone call, they want to meet you in person and that's even worse, you have to wash, get dressed and go outside in the sunlight and wait in a room till someone you've never met calls you. The actual interview is the worst, sitting there in the middle of the room, sitting on your hands and sweating like a Paedophile in a Nursery while 2-3 people stare at you. Words are lost on me at this point, I can't think, I can't speak and my brain completely shuts down and to top it off my stomach is so fuzzy that I constantly fart.
Shit's so exhausting and terrifying, so much easier to just sit at home in bed with your laptop.
I didn't ask to be born into this world, I don't want to be part of this world, why do I have to conform with the rules of society and be another law-abiding happy insect worker with a boring 9-5 job and die without ever doing anything~?
Fuck this shit, fuck it all, you can stick your job up your arse, I aint doing shit.

Whatever you do, do not work in public services or in retail, you have to deal with hundreds of people a day and they're all utter bastards.

It's not that bad at all. I just got a job as a cashier at a local Japanese market, and all you really ever say is:
Hello! How are you? (こんにちは、いらっしゃいませ！）(ignored)
That'll be $XX and yy cents (XXドルとYYセントとなります）
here's your chanage (XXドルとYYセントのお返しとなりまう）
Thank you have a nice day　(ありがとうございました)

ad infinitum + occasionally telling people where some stuff is.

Learn japanese.
Go to Japan.
Write cheap light novels with moe characters

Actually, art of any kind (including literature) is not a good way to make money. Often, the artists are practically scammed by their publishers, working their asses off for a ridiculously low pay while publishers make tons of money. Plus, becoming successful in art is always a gamble, and most people lose that gamble.

Because you rely on society. If you don't want to do your share of the work society requires, you're free to move to the wilderness and live as a hermit. But you can't, because you're used to having food supplies regularly delivered to your supermarket, water coming from your tap 24/7, and having extremely high-quality clothing and shelter provided by society.
You can choose to either take care of all of these things yourself, or you can choose to let society help you. But if you choose the latter, society expects something in return. Money is the 'points system' society uses for this; the greater your contribution to society, the more you're allowed to get in return. (Theoretically, of course. Practically, people have been cheating the system for countless centuries, causing the balance to be completely lost...but it still serves its main purpose.)

Quality doesn't determine what gets published, sadly.

Let's buy an island, fill it with dorms and call /jp/ to live there. We'll have everyone fishing or working at the farm 4 hours per day. No woman allowed.

>>7297397

>No woman allowed.

but we're all little girls here!

>>7297333
professional writer here, this is not what you want to be doing if you want stay home all day taking it easy.

There are probably less than 100 people in NA who can make a full-time job of just writing books.

For pretty much every other kind of money you'd have to go out and actually meet people

>>7297338
Well I'm not cynical. I'm a positive person and I accept those things as reality. My fears are irrational and I do not understand them. I like to be sociable and have places to go and responsibility. But, it's little things that preclude those other things that prevent me from being that normal productive member of society I aspire to be.

It's like a giant wall. Picking up the phone is such a stressful task, but after you do it, it's like--hm that wasn't so bad. But that feeling NEVER goes away! It's a perishable skill. If you stop doing something for a while, it becomes scary as fuck even if you had done that thing many times before. I don't understand it. I try so hard to be decisive and unafraid by confronting my fears, but they're just as scary as fuck every time.

Maybe you can buy http://www.privateislandsonline.com/isla-gatun-panama.htm ? It's only $30k.
Building dorms would be somewhat more difficult, though. I guess you can build your own unprofessional homes?

>>7297553

Better buy one with an existing settlement that can be expanded if the need arises.

http://www.privateislandsonline.com/drottninghamn.htm

>>7297663
But that one's 2.5 million euros. There's no way anyone on /jp/ could afford that. At least >>7297553 is possible for some anons.

I know that many Americans don't 'believe' in global warming, but chances are good that those islands will be below sea level before 30 years have passed.

Best way to get rich and retire early is entrepreneurship, but most people on 4chan lack the brains and balls to do it

Other viable option is poker / trading.

30 years is a long time to prepare. Since the island is only 0.74 acres, you can easily protect it from floods in 30 years.

well strange thing is my parents totally support my lifestyle.
I'm 25 turning 26 next months, still in college. will go to japan for one year starting from October with scholarship and went to japan 2 years ago, also for one year also with scholarship and my parents are all:"Yeah that's so cool do it!"
and I'm like:"yeah ok"
but once my sweet life at university is over I will be pushed out into the streets of hard and rough everydaylife with no job probably FOREVER because I'm studying Asian studies. srsly asian studies?! what was I thinking of?

>>7297397
You better prepare your anus if you intend on living with /jp/ers.

The more I think about it, the more I am convinced that joining a monastic order is the best way out. Do they allow internet in monasteries?

>>7297270
That's actually a good idea! How hard would it be to get government benefits if I moved to one of those countries that give you money for nothing, like Norway or Sweden?

>>7298503
I heard Denmark is forcing immigrants to open an account with at least 13,000€ to cover for eventual spendings the government might have with them.

>>7298490
No. You'll be lucky if you have newspapers.

>>7298571
What about books? I'd become some Tibetan monk or something if I could chill in a monastery all day and read/drink tea.

>>7298627

That isn't very likely. You might not have to deal with society at large, but you would still have to make yourself useful to the local community, and you'd probably be allowed few personal items, if any. A monastery isn't the kind of place you'd want to go if you want idle time.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monasticism

>>7298490
I visited a monastery once.

They had this gigantic TV were they watched soccer. But they weren't interested in computers very much, they had these old as machines with pentium II.

>>7299750
I dunno, giving back to the community doesn't sound so bad when it's a bunch of other introverted pious guys.

Anyway, back on the subject of islands. http://www.privateislandsonline.com/big-tusket-island.htm looks pretty nice, but I think it would take 4-5 of us to buy it at least. Plenty of room for farming though.

I take it easy by not worrying about shit that doesn't matter. I don't hold grudges with people, I try to be polite when it's reasonable, and I don't stress myself out over doing my job. What's important in my life is being relaxed and productive. If I'm not relaxed I'm not productive with my hobbies. I'm training for a job in a field I love, where I can be creative and utilitarian at the same time, so work won't feel like a chore. I chill with bros and don't give a fuck about love.

It's very easy to take it too easy. I don't worry about it though.

That's a lot of land for a price like that. What's the catch?
