Here’s what I don’t get.

I come from /fit/ and /g/ primarily prior to biz, where the redpills are yours to take, at any time once you choose to take them. You want to get fit? Well one day, you get off your ass, go sign up at the gym and begin starting strength. Wanna learn programming? You sit down at your computer, spend the time learning from tutorials and building your own projects, and build your skills. Both of which I have done.

But with making money it’s different. Sure, if you have money you learn where to invest it and trade it, that’s all well and good. But if starting from 0 or even worse already in debt, then you’re fucked until you can get a good enough job or make it big on a winning 100x shitcoin moon.

How do you get a good enough job? Networking, kissing ass and luck/ timing. Even with shitcoins, mostly luck/timing and of course DYOR and whatever, but again you have to have some money beforehand, and also you risk losing a significant amount of it if your luck turns sour.

This sucks bc I can’t get a job. Have a year gap on my resume and even though I’ve been doing programming freelancing where I can and building my own projects, it still comes down to waiting for someone to offer you one.

Fuck! Some anon made a thread yesterday asking what the SS of /biz/ would be; I really wish it was as easy as finding a local gym and putting your nose to the grindstone and repping out squats and oats. But to succeed in /biz/iness, you have to deal with ~society~.

Leave him alone. Being extremely (extremely) gay isn't such a bad thing.

OP suck it up and get a shitty entry level job or just go to trade school.

Getting wealthy is a combination of luck, patience and intelligence. Not specifically in that order. It’s not as easy as reading a 4channel post, or else everyone would be a successful neet.

Look into vanguard investing. Boggleheads u think they call themselves. It's about very basic, conservative, long term investment in stocks

I have been trying to get an entry-level programming job. DC metro area. Get rejected for literally everything; been to 10s of interviews at this point. I’m not an autist either; the rejection is always just “we went forward with another candidate whose experience more closely matches the requirements of the position”. I have a degree in EE, which is maybe why I’m not getting the CS jobs, but I have more than enough coding experience for an entry level shitgig.

Unless you meant just suck it up and work at Mcdonalds, which, seriously? That is not the path to wealth.

Also, /g/ is only gay bc it’s full of traps and leftists...../fit/ though I’ll give you that one.

I wouldn't recommend fast food but if you don't have a job or any money right now, take what you can get and keep looking for something better. I recommend night shifts at retail stores. Quite comfy.
