How do you get back in the workforce after this? I literally have years of blank space on my resume. What jobs can I enter even with this kind of handicap? My social skills are also shot and a bit off. I'll probably wouldn't have smooth random interviews. The only thing I'm not lacking on is money. I can go back to uni and finish another degree or get a Master's with no issue or even move to a different city overnight. Are there any courses that will guarantee me a futureproof job at this point? Though I doubt any education nowadays is worth much.

tl;dr how do you become productive after being an unemployed wealthy NEET for years.

Impossible. I got rich enough to not have to work with some finance jobs, and despite my intentions to try to continue developing my career my autism-nature asserted itself and I couldn't see the point of it anymore. 6 years of NEETing now, social skills are shot too, and I developed bipolar disorder. So pretty similar in a lot of ways. The reality I discovered is that I will never work for anyone again, ever. You can't make yourself do something that's BOTH difficult and pointless, it has to be one or the other. I'm working on some ideas for some online businesses (top secret), but the idea that I'd go through the interview process again, much less be able to pass an interview for a job that would actually be worthwhile, is completely laughable.

>> No.14002858

you can volunteer doing different things to see what you like
if you don't want to be social go into farming and gardening or get some tools and start fabricating and welding

I'm in a similar spot, mental illness ruined some important opportunities and I'm basically unemployable right now
that's why I study crypto, volunteer, and work on couple hobbies
don't put too much pressure on yourself just take it easy and find something you enjoy
if you become proficient at it you can turn it into a business

money can't replace purpose and skills so you need to find something that gives fulfillment

even though I don't work everyday I maintain my garden, check my bitcoin/lightning node, and either discgolf or mountain bike or jog
when you spend days on end rotting away it's detrimental to your mental state
last summer I volunteered over 100 hours at a community garden and learned a bunch but in the end I didn't really enjoy doing all the back breaking work for a large plot (I was the only young man there so I turned compost, prepped beds, and mowed/edged, all the guy jobs)

If you dont have to work maybe you shouldn't? All these ppl want to make it on crypto lottery tickets so they dont have to work and they're judging you? Schizophrenia is a fucked up illness. If you want to be a productive member of society which you should be start with volunteer work, animal shelters and stuff. You will be useful, you do not need money and you can have purpose. Purpose is what matters not a job. If you have the resources to not have the pressure to work but have a meaningful life you need to find what that means for you and that isnt necessarily a 9-5. Or maybe it is a job! Still, start with volunteer work because holding a job is hard too imo. I'm not saying you cant do it just dont fuck your shit up worse by trying to hold yourself to what you think society expects of you. Hobbies and volunteer work can provide the same feelings of accomplishment as a job. Start there before jumping into work.

Become an entrepreneur retard. Why would a guy who doesn't care about money want to "work a job" anyway?

God, money is wasted on people like you.

Myself I love working on things and building them up. But unsurprisingly the problem is usually money. I'd literally probably work more than a "wageslave" does, insofar as I am chasing my own thing.

Just browse etsy, or kickstarter or something to get cool product ideas. Or find a cause. Try to make a better, flatpacked greenhouse so that it can be easily mailed to the third world or something.

I can assure you that I am a pretty real one.

Angel Investor is pretty fun too. I would only add a note however.

A LOT of the fun in product making (which is what I do) is the feedback by people recognising you as their creator, as well as watching them interact with them, enjoy them etc.

Angel VCs get their dick sucked by those they invest in obviously, but I get the impression that they remain in the background and the glory usually goes to those that end up doing the thing, even if they helped them do it.

Since OP gave the impression of being somewhat aimless and depressed, rather than merely "make money", actually trying to make a product and then if it succeeds, getting all the glory for it would probably be more fun for him.

If you have enough money that you don't need to wagecuck, start a business. Invest your money into cash flow producing assets (real estate/dividend paying stocks). Don't touch the principal. Live off this cashflow as your grow your business and do the things you enjoy. Or if you don't want to start a business then just live off that new cashflow and chill. Not rly that complicated if you have $ like you claim to

say you traveled, did retreats and missions, started and donated small agriculture businesses to several small sovereign tribes in north africa and brazil.

also, you still have schizophrenia. the mentally ill don't get better, they only get worse. maybe it's be you stay a NEET. i have a soft spot for schitzo's though. my best friend developed it when he was 18 and jumped off a building by the time he was 21. sad. i wish you well.

They don't have the money brother. Every wagie takes vacations but only wealthy people travel. The only exception is poor hippies who live a nomadic lifestyle, but those people don't apply for jobs anyway.

If you tell a big boss you traveled the world for a few years, he's going to ask where you went, he'll say "hey i went there too such and such sure is nice isn't it?", you'll gab a little bit and he'll no longer see you as a retarded wageslave schmuck. Its just the way things work
