I just don't get it. If I could even make 50k a year I'd be set. I just don't want to work more than 40 hours a week. I am pretty young 20ish, Not in college cause everyone I'm around tells me it's a scam if you don't go into STEM. I don't have any particularly useful skills, what do I do? Invest in Crypto? I just don't get it, there's like 1000 different coins and all I see is it's been going down over the past 5 years, but I recognize that I had opportunities to make alot of money at different points in time if I had just taken the jump. Stocks are more reliable, I understand these more cause I understand why stocks are valuable, and how they work etc. I just don't know how to actually make money with them. I've bought some silver (70 oz) just because it's what I can afford while keeping enough USD to survive, but have some silver in case of Weimar 2.0.

Should I go to college for a STEM degree? Learn programming? I can draw decently, and I could learn 3D modeling fairly quickly I think. Got 2+ years of Japanese. Can read and watch Manga/Anime, but could focus more on it to make a job out of it. I just want to be able to buy some land.
