I talked to a wise boomer at work about starting my own business, he gave this advice:

"Do it while you're young, I spent my life making money for other people. Even if it doesn't work out, you'll learn so much more than if you didn't take the shot. I've had a few ideas over the years but I just never got round to doing them. At any moment you could meet a lady, then you'll have kids and a mortgage, then you'll be 35 with no money."

How are you able to run 3 start ups with no money? How do you have the time to manage that?

Maybe he's like another anon on here that said if you have good connections you can get materials/means of production and pay them back later if they trust you enough.

I'm trying to retire at 35, I think I'll make it. I take literally all of the money from one venture and start another. I see opportunities that I'm not smart enough to take advantage of, and I convince engineers to come on board with generous equity. I think my skill is bridging the gap between autismals and customers. Smart enough to understand technical experts, but too dumb to do anything with it. Also, most people don't know how to register a business, retain legal counsel, pay taxes (or pay accountants, etc), and that barrier to entry keeps smart people from working for themselves. I take care of that stuff.

It's astonishing how the process for all that shit isn't streamlined, you'd think every government would be chomping at the bit to make it as easy as possible for people to innovate and earn income they can tax for free money.

They may not be 100% effective but they are close enough that it's not worth worrying about. It's like saying it's not always my choice to not die in a car crash, but I still drive cars.

absolutely. that's the funny thing about it. I'm just poking fun at the zoomers who don't think they're gonna wake up older one day with a wife, kids, and a mortgage and wonder how the hell they got there.

I'm a late zoomer, and even I realize that's probably how it's going to go. I just hope I meet the right girl, my parents have said to me before that even though my brother wasn't planned and they struggled for years, they wouldn't change anything. My mom has said as well that she wish she could have given it a few years, but if that meant she wouldn't have had me and my brother specifically she was glad she didn't wait.

Ok so you didn't use a contraceptive after all. You're an idiot for thinking pullout, or trusting the woman's birth control, is even comparable to a condom.

not him, but to be fair, I would want to put all my wealth into gold and jewels and bury a pirate chest on some deserted island. No meme, if I had kids I would write a treasure map that would take them across the world. It's gay as shit but I think it's more interesting than handing someone everything I worked for, you know?
