/biz/ - Business & Finance

Turning 30 this year, on paper my life is great with a successful business, likely to be doing 10M+ a year by mid thirties but all I want to do is just get fucked up on wine, do coke, put a film I've watched 100 times on in the background and shitpost on this gay website.

I don't, I stick to 1/2-2/3 a bottle, maybe a glass of limoncello or whisky, don't do the coke, wake up with a bit of a headache and then crank out some work. I'll have my fancy coffee, drink some water and say "fuck I need to drink less", I don't overeat because I know the weight is going to get harder to manage as I get older and I try and keep a baseline of exercise so I don't completely turn to shit, I feel like I could always turn it around in 3-6 months easy.

I stay single because I don't want to have to try and impress some random bitch like some cuck on top of all the stress and responsibility I already have or worse, be someone's ticket to a good life just because they put out every now and then. I feel like I'm turning into a guy that get's divorced and taken to the cleaners, so would rather just be the guy that makes money and has random encounters.

I shouldn't be going into my 30s so jaded, but there we are. Hoping I wake up to a healthier outlook every day.

I want to second this, in 2012 I still remember there were "graduate freezes" so companies were basically not hiring and you had a 5 year mini-generation of people graduating or recent graduates not being able to find shit for work and had to take any job while their degree collected dust, somehow this didn't redpill people about meme degrees, but that's a different story.

This time it is totally different as the labour market seems to be doing a 180 to the economy, which means either:
>the real crash hasn't happened yet, but will in the next 18 months and we'll get the same economic slowdown ->companies out of biz->unemployement rises->things get bad for a few years->eventually it's all back to normal
>this time it's actually different, employment will stay high but be outpaced by inflation, no crash just slowdown, every wagie gets poorer, asset owning class keeps up with inflation but nominally doesn't get richer. This lasts for 10 years, people accept being poor while working as the new economic reality

Personally I'm leaning towards number 2, all the conditions are wayyy to different to at least the last 2 recessions.
