when spamlink moon your real life will begin

>>13476214
Funny that you should mention that. Crypto is my only hope of escaping wage drudgery. If I succeed in crypto, it will only be due to dumb luck. Just like everything in life: attractiveness, health, family life/connections, genes, wealth, whatever is all determined by the luck of the draw. Draw a decent hand and you can work with it (maybe, a lot of luck there as well). Draw a great hand and you are set for life. Draw a poor hand and, well, you're fucked for life. Even getting saddled with a bad trait like poor health can fuck up all the other good traits life gave you.

This is the hardest black pill I've ever had to swallow.

>high school was your best years

yikes

>>13476365
It pretty much is.

Best opportunity to make friends and connections, cultivate skills, take education seriously, build athletic prowess, develop social skills, etc.

Most of all, you're young when you're in high school. Life is still novel and sweet. There's so much to experience and you have all the energy in the world to experience it.

High school is also the first real proving ground. I'm willing to bet that how well someone does in high school is the best indicator as to how well they will do in life. All of my classmates who breezed through high school are doing very well life whereas everyone else is struggling to survive. Not to mention that the loners and losers in my graduating class are now all addicts or criminals or dead.

I can relate a lot to all of these despite having made it. I thought money would make my life a lot better, but it really hasn't. Idk how old you are, but my advice for 18yo me would be to focus less on money and focus more on friends and finding a career that truly makes me happy. Don't get me wrong, money is nice, but it should be the by-product of a good life, NEVER the main goal. I didn't realize this until I was 23yo (1 year ago). I sacrificed all my relationships, health and passions just to get rich. As much as I hate to admit it, I regret it. I'm trying to fix my life but it's hard.. I'm currently working on improving my health and I've applied for a degree that genuinely interests me.

>>13476548
Whatever you do, don't fall for the 'once I have money my real life will begin' meme.

>born into extreme wealth
>literally never experienced what it feels like to not have money
>feel like a piece of shit because I did nothing to deserve it and there are people RIGHT NOW working three jobs who can barely afford to eat who deserve it

thinking about selling everything, giving it away, and telling my parents to not send me any more money to my bank account to see if I can make it on my own. Should I do it bros?

bump for guidance

>easy wins through my teens with business
>live it up with houses and such
>get depressed about how i didnt really earn it since it came easy and other ppl have such hard lives
>lose it all
>get it back
>realize i should have never felt bad for having money in the first place
>find peace of mind while stuntin on wagies

>>13476638
Send me some crypto if you want to feel better about yourself. It will absolve you of your sins, guaranteed.

>>13476638
give some of it to me if you do please, lmao. No but for real if you did that you would quickly discover most people are not worth that wealth either. Who but yourself claims to be worth that which your parents worked to preserve for you?

You're part of a family that values (or did) hard work and intelligent allocation of wealth. Do not give it to anyone (except some to me) because it is the fault of the individual to fail in life. I come from a family that WAS well off, but my boomer aunts which total in 6 + my father have squandered their wealth, diluted it, sold off the family estate and with their addled minds have done absolutely nothing to compensate. My family used to own a small part of an entire state, now thanks to fucking boomers they have cycled it into jewish debt scams, new cars, luxury cruises, the works. I will inherit nothing but the will from my ancestors to carve out a decent living in this world and dammit I'm going to try to do just that.

What is there to feel bad about? Do not let empathy cloud your judgement.

>>13475615
thought like this alot. changed my career, rejected natural science for finance. It's too late to turn back, but when I think long enough about it, I realize I never wanted to. there's only one goal and it is financial freedom. if I ever manage to attain it, I'll finally be able to find out who I want to be.

>>13476638
>put all your shit in storage
>get a wagie job and live off only that income for a year or two
>if you already have a job, open a new bank account and transfer wagie levels of income - live off that

Once you feel like you've extracted what wisdom you can from the experience, go volunteer in a soup kitchen or something.

>>13477031
This is good advice too, but it's probably good for anon to feel bad if he's also decadent and complacent. Work hard to be worthy of the wealth you do have. Don't give it away to addicts and bums.

You can still have empathy, just mediate it with reason.

based advice. all of it.

What is your Daedalus wallet addresses? ADA is the only crypto I'm invested in and I can send all of you some

>>13477134
im a cryptolet with literally nothing in my binance account, almost no idea what I'm doing but it says "Wallet Maintenance, Deposit & Withdrawal Suspended" for daedalus. Thanks for the thought if it was genuine, probably getting memed though

>>13477172
Wait no I'm a brainlet and was looking at the wrong thing, is this some pajeet scam?

>>13477172
Download the Daedalus wallet from the official Cardano website, run the wizard to install it onto your desktop, open it and click on the "receive" tab in the wallet, and paste the address here so I can send you some ADA.

>>13477210
Working on it now, why cardano out of curiosity?

>>13477035
I don't get what you're saying. You never really wanted to be in finance or you never really wanted to be in natural sciences?

>>13477248
My parents and their connections are invested in the project so it's only naturally that I would do the same. I want to be in Bitcoin but I don't believe the bottom is in yet.

>>13476548
>Claims he made it before 23
Story time or you are LARPing, anon.

>>13477287
Well I'm trying to install this wallet program but apparently it takes fucking forever to sync blocks with the first install "After installing Daedalus wallet for first time it will take some time to sync the entire blockchain with your Daedalus wallet, the blockchain is now over 14GB in size so depending on internet speed it could take few days."

>>13477287
Since you seem genuine what projects do you think are legitimate in the crypto space? I see quite a few obvious pump and dump shills here on /biz/ and my primary holding is in BTC because I want to avoid all of the bullshit in crypto. But if there are legitimate projects I am interested in how the actual technology would be useful in the real world, there is a significant amount of information to swallow

>>13476638
this >>13477051 sounds like a good idea
it's like rerolling a new account in a MMO for the new player experience, though I've never felt the need to do that, even after becoming a millionaire I haven't felt the need to change my standard of living

>>13477292
probably crypto like the majority of people who have "made it" on this board

>>13477292
Not a larp. I have about 700k in assets with no debt. I know I'm not super wealthy, but I've made it by my own standards. It's enough money for me to feel free to do what I want and not worry about going broke. I made most of my money from online poker. I have posted about it a bunch of times on biz including some recent graphs. Don't really feel like doing a story time now, sorry. It's really late in my country. Heading to bed soon.

>>13477259
Never wanted to return to natural science

>>13477313
>>13477297
sorry to hear that it's taking so long. I'm going to sleep soon but I really wanted to give you those coins. Anyways, you are correct in your investment choice and market analysis. Nearly everything shilled on /biz/ is a p&d. The only other projects I would look into are Ripple and Chainlink.

>>13477468
Dominus noster Jesus Christus te absolvat; et ego auctoritate ipsius te absolvo ab omni vinculo excommunicationis (suspensionis) et interdicti in quantum possum et tu indiges. Deinde, ego te absolvo a peccatis tuis in nomine Patris, et Filii, + et Spiritus Sancti. Amen.
I absolve you from your sins, until next time.

>>13477499
Amen. God bless you anon. Good luck.
