How do people survive wageslaving for so many years? I'm only 30 and I legitimately want to kill myself already. It's not even a low paid or particularly difficult job, but it's so god damned soul sucking that I barely feel human anymore. I can't even imagine making it to 35, let alone 65 fucking years of this shit. Please tell me how people are able to cope with any of this.

Look man, all memes aside, here's the cold, honest truth. Life is fucking hard. Especially if you want excellence, it will be fucking hard.

Do something besides wageslaving to become financially independent and happy. Invest in stock options, crypto, a startup, etc. Start a business on the side. Make new friends that support you.

You are the result of all of your actions in life. Wherever you go, there you are. You can't change the past, but you can change how you go about life in the future. Make the damn most of it and don't waste it on fucking whining and complaining about life all the goddamn time.

I for one am glad that the millenials are rebelling against this servitude nonsense, or at the very least not zoning out in some escapism bubble and pretending it's something else. They are waking up to the fiat scam, loan usury bullshit, and the whole societal approval bullshit.

Again, read "Man's search for meaning". This will help clarify meaning for your life.

If you truly believe that nothing you do matters, then what's the point of fucking doing anything? There is none. You might as well lay down and rot.

But if you act as though everything you do matters, and everything you do matters, then suddenly that's a lot more responsibility on you but the payout at the end is worth it.

Do you have any friends? A girlfriend/boyfriend? Family members that you're close to? I've found that meaning is often found in helping others improve and helping them feel better about themselves.

Again, read Frankl's "Man Search For Meaning". It's about his experience in a concentration camp. He had every reason to believe that his life was purposeless and had no meaning.

According to Frankl, meaning can be found through:

- Experiencing reality by interacting authentically with the environment and with others,

- Giving something back to the world through creativity and self-expression, and

- Changing our attitude when faced with a situation or circumstance that we cannot change.

Frankl is credited with coining the term ‘Sunday neurosis’ to refer to the dejection that many people feel at the end of the working week when at last they have the time to realize just how empty and meaningless their life has become. This existential vacuum may open the door on all sorts of excesses and compensations such as neurotic anxiety, avoidance, binge eating, drinking, overworking, and overspending. In the short-term, these excesses and compensations carpet over the existential vacuum, but in the longer term they prevent action from being taken and meaning from being found.

For Frankl, depression results when the gap between what a person is and what he ought to be, or once wished to be, becomes so large that it can no longer be carpeted over. The person’s goals seem far out of reach and he can no longer envisage a future. As in Psalm 41, abyssus abyssum invocat—‘hell brings forth hell’, or, in an alternative translation, ‘the deep calls unto the deep.’

Here's some relevant quotes from Frankl

1. Our greatest freedom is the freedom to choose our attitude.

2. When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.

3. But there was no need to be ashamed of tears, for tears bore witness that a man had the greatest of courage, the courage to suffer.

4. In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice.

5. The meaning of life is to give life meaning.

6. Those who have a 'why' to live, can bear with almost any 'how'.

7. Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose.

8. Happiness cannot be pursued; it must ensue.

9. The point is not what we expect from life, but rather what life expects from us.

10. For the world is in a bad state, but everything will become still worse unless each of us does his best.

I had a similar realization the other day.

I come from a family of immigrants. My dad works like a wage slave, and he busts his ass everyday to get us to finish college and hopefully improve our life situation.

My mother on the other hand is a self-absorbed narcissist, always complaining that we aren't richer (she works part time btw) and why can't we have more nice things by spending money we don't have. She started fucking up with everyone in my house nearly a year ago, and it escalated to the point of threatening to get get a lawyer if we didn't sell the house and gave her half of the money so she could run off and live the "liberated woman" life. Real nigger shit.

I flunked my college semester from the stress. Started working full time in the memest job ever, Mcdonalds. And after months of going through the motions I came to the same conclusion you did.

Nothing in my life matters. I have parents that don't really care about me (now that I dropped out). I got no friends. I am now stuck wage slaving, with very little chance of ever moving up.

And everyday, when I hand some doctor/bizman/professional engineer his fast food, a little bit of me dies inside. When I see the girl's they have by their side, A LOT MORE dies inside.

I will probably never escape this hell, this is as "good" as life gets for me.

I made a little bit of money from LINK (It was heaven or hell, pulled out at 43 cents, original investment was like 200 dollars), and that made me a little happier, but not nearly enough to fix all of my problems (student debt, etc). I remember when my biggest worry was being self conscious or seeming like a loser in school. Nowadays I have gotten used to been alone, talking to myself. And I don't care about my status anymore.

Yeah I should probably kill myself. But not yet. I am a gambler at heart. And as long as I have just a little bit of hope, I will keep playing this game. Maybe my luck will change, right?

get a job that feels bearable somewhat. at least then you wont hate yourself everyday. step two: find an alternative means of income whether it be crypto, starting your own business, etc. third step get rid of all debt you have and try to free yourself from that. it is causing stress to more than 70% of this country and people don't even know how much of a burden debt can be. I followed those three steps and feel much better about my short term future. I was struggling a lot early this year with my job and was finding it really hard to stay motivated.

I don't find any jobs bearable anymore, because they're all going to involve working on something meaningless that I don't care about. And I already tried crypto earlier this year. Made like 300% gains before losing most of it and my portfolio has just been on a steady decline since then, so I consider it a form of gambling, not a legitimate way to make money. I can't start my own business because I don't know of any product or service I can come up with that could ever be successful, and even if I did I wouldn't have any success because I'm a beta.

Dood, come on. You said your wage isn't bad. So save up, don't spend your money on anything you don't need, and learn to invest. Stocks, options, crypto, and real estate. The latter being incredibly important but always overlooked.

The fact that you're not married and without a girlfriend is OF BENEFIT. Don't for a second believe the myth that some roastie is going to being happiness into your life. You are a free man, with the exception of wagecucking. But like I said, save money and invest. If you play your cards right you could live off a part time job after a few years. Then over time, you'll be able to live off passive income from your rental properties. You are much closer to being free than you might think.

I'd also say this: ask yourself if you're chasing your dream, or the dream that other people have for you.

You don't need to impress anybody. Anything can be seen as positively contributing to society, in some way. If you're a fucking cook at Mcdonalds you're helping people get their food.

What you shouldn't do is try to take drugs/alcohol/whatever to try to cure your depressive symptoms. That'll make you dependent on it. The only "drugs" that I might recommend to get out of your state are LSD, ahayuasca, or DMT.

I think the problem with most people is they're too stuck in their own head. So they pound beers on the weekend and indulge in drugs to distract themselves.

If you're a fucking braindead polack, sure. Peterson is to the fields of sociology and philosophy what Dawkins is to theology.

He may be a good clinical psychologist but whenever he opens his cock-trap outside of his limited area of specialisation he transforms into an angsty lulzcow. The fact that he thinks postmodernism is some sort of ((cultural-marxist)) conspiracy to undermine Western society by analyzing what people do with their cocks is fucking grade-A comedy.

Now reassess whether you want to kill yourself, or do something useful like liquidate the class and dismantle the social structures which bring about the conditions that make you feel the way you do.

Don't do it. But at the very least, take a few of the porky cunts with you if you decide to do it.

Life is suffering until you decide that it isn't.

I've been a rich man, I've been a poor man, I've been extremely happy and extremely depressed with no correlation to my finances. It's all about your state of mind. Now, your state of mind can be a difficult thing to change but you can always change your situation. If you hate your job then find another one. Do hard labor if you have to. At least then you'll be getting exercise, which can make a big difference mentally, and doing work that won't make you feel like a robot. Hard labor pays pretty well too. Or you can just up and leave, go live on a communal farm. Go do gay porn, do whatever. The point is that you feel stuck but you only feel that way. You can leave whenever you want.

And don't work towards nothing. Cut your spendings, live simply, save that money until it's enough to do something with. Maybe you use it for a down payment on a gas station/ convenience store, maybe you buy ATM's or vending machines, maybe you trade crypto, maybe you buy a Lamborghini. The whole point is, always have a goal. Even if it will take years to achieve, you have to be working towards something. Otherwise, you really are working for nothing.

Since quitting college (no debt though, it was in europe) I tried to have a full time job with 40 hours, where I was in front of a PC all day long and could even slack off a lot playing .io games.
It turned out to be quite the disaster for me, since waking up early and being trapped in some place for over 8 hours a day was very monotone. Its not like home where you can do literally nothing in your free time, there are certain things you have to keep tabs on to not appear like the lazy pos you are.
It always surprised me how people could enjoy their work.

Well, I quit that 40 hour Job anyway. One day I asked for 30 hours, but they were too small to facilitate it for my position. I quit with no job prospect and looked for a 30 hour one. A month later I had my current job with 30 hours and the same pay.

The crux is, that even 30 hours a week feels quite taxing. It never seems to be the fact that some co-workers are annoying or the work is unfair or something in that direction. The issue seems to be work in itself, the fact that you are selling a large part of your time and robbing yourself of experiences you wish to explore.

The problem seems to be that without any capital to live off from you cant just pursue many different things. Or at least you cant experience them with a lucid mind, considering you gain a level of exhaustion from hours of "work". So the goal is first to build up capital and then take the risk, quit and pursue something, while still having to think about the money. So in the end it always comes down to money, if you want to liberate people you need to make money something to use on luxuries, a bonus objective.

This whole wagecuck culture seems to numb people down a lot, I can feel the effects already and I am only in this stuff for a year now.. You become somewhat numb, push away work and get into a certain rhythm, your free time is spend sleeping off the dread or escaping to mundane things. The ambition to try something new is declining as well, perhaps you associate working on something with work itself.

To win the wagecuck game it seems you need to change jobs frequently, promise companies the moon and then simply drop the ball after a month and wait for them to notice. On the other Hand you need to actively preserve your state of mind and fight the dread from work, even if it hurts. I think that if you get used to the 9 to 5 lifestyle you are beyond hope and will live through life in a daze.

So to those who are stuck in a position where they need to sell their time to survive, you got 3 options:
- cheat the system and slack off as much as you can (I am currently doing the bare minimum while browsing biz all day and elaborate on things I have done which took mere minutes). They will find out eventually, so treat this like a pump and dump strategy, where you will pull the trigger and quit for another job to do the same.
- let yourself become a drone and dort fight the feeling of dread. Maybe you can still be happy that way
- Be ready to die for your decision and make risky business decisions. aka. "All in crypro or kms in 3 years". You need to have the conviction to follow through with your move though.

Maybe these lose information help you to escape your daze. I am currently planing to exit my current job and see how far my 10 btc + alts can take me. It will somewhat depend on how crypto develops, a buffer of 5 years would make risking my life for a life without work feel to be ok.

If you are commuting more than a hour all up each day you should honestly just stop working, kill yourself or move closer. It will destroy your soul more than wageslaving. No amount of podcasts and books will make it worthwhile.
I was commuting to the city each day and I couldn't take it anymore. Found a slightly less "prestigious" job closer to home and took a slight pay cut but it was worth it.

The best way to keep a prisoner from escaping is to make sure he never knows he's in prison.
- Fyodor Dostoevsky

To overcome the anxieties and depressions of contemporary life, individuals must become independent of the social environment to the degree that they no longer respond exclusively in terms of its rewards and punishments. To achieve such autonomy, a person has to learn to provide rewards to herself. He has to develop the ability to find enjoyment and purpose regardless of external circumstances.

Do you want to die having done something big for society? To be a big name? Look at the things that are yet to come, bio-tech is still in its early stages so if you're interested you could try inventing the world's first bionic athletic limbs. Or maybe work on the blueprints to build a network to upload one's consciousness towards. It's virtually a given that 20-25 years from now that kind of stuff will go viral so you can try being ahead of the game by getting to it now.

What if you don't care about that or any type of work? Then find a purpose and chase it without regrets. In other words, have fun in life. Travel the world with a camera and go on hikes around appealing landmarks. Maybe you're seeking a thrill, so try something like skydiving or whatever only a madman would attempt. It's possible that you could find the woman of your dreams if you expose yourself to the world this way. If you don't even care about that, try getting philosophical and study a new language or embrace a religion to help guide you towards peace for when your time finally does come to an end.

Parking or building security, hotel lobby night shifts. Then use the time to study or write or code or trade. You will get paid while improving yourself. Through perseverance, you will become very good at somerhing you are interested in. Dont forget to set a feasible but high longterm goal for yourself. Join foruns/boards with likeminded ppl.

I'm 42. I'm a wagecuck for Citigroup IT department. In reality I don't have a shitty job and it pays OK'ish. My family has two houses (mortgages) and stand to inherit another 3 houses (already bought) soonish. Should be able to retire in about 10 years and just live of the rental income.

I always have tenants paying one of my mortgages for me and the mortgage I pay for the house I live in is an investment for myself and my children. Very soon all that will be disposable income for me. I'm pretty good with my hands so I'll also consider selling, buying, renovating as a hobby then selling on again.

Sell up all your assets, consolidate or pay off your debts. Downsize if needed. Start your own business or find better jobs that you actually enjoy that are based on your passions. Enjoy life. You are the only person who holds the key to your happiness, only you can change things. No excuses. If you have kids then that's your own fault for having them before you were settled in a life that made you happy. Not the end of the world, just downsize more to accommodate.

Then invest assets wisely in your business or whatever you chose to do. Put it all on red at a roulette table if you want, it is up to you.

Relationships do not make you happy, you make you happy. Then if you have an abundance of happiness you can make others happy.

This pretty much, then invest wisely in something. People living beyond their means and being forced to work a dead-end job they hate is what makes life unbearable. In the west, we have a choice not to do that. If people chose not to it is usually because they make excuses.

Look after the pennies and the pounds look after themselves. Stop living beyond your means and make every penny count. Downsize. Go without luxury goods and nice things. Making money takes many years unless you are lucky. Invest in your future or if not yours then your kids future. Life is about hard work and sacrifice. Or getting lucky or being born rich but that's unlikely.

I don't live beyond my means. The basic cost of living in any metropolitan area in the US (including suburbs) is extremely expensive and my job pays just barely enough to cover it. I don't even have any debt, but I can't imagine how I would ever be able to save any significant amount of money. And even if it was possible, what's the point of living in constant misery every single day until you're 60 just for some small chance that you might have enough money to live comfortably when you're a decrepit old man? I don't plan to ever have a wife or kids either. How can anybody live this way for 40+ fucking years and not be driven totally insane by it?

There are three types of people in this world: 1) those who are unaffected by existential thoughts; 2) those who are affected but has no solution for it; 3) those who are affected and has a solution for it.

Type 2 suffers the most; religion is simply another form of solution - an escape/substitute from the unanswerable questions.

Move to a cheaper area or state and get a different job. Be innovative. Working for a corporation in a city rarely makes you rich. Certainly not without 40 years effort, sacrifice, and not having time off for kids and family first.

You are basically living in an area that is too expensive and for rich people and working the equivalent of a minimum wage job for a corporation.

Making money is not as simple as getting an education and working your profession.

How many times have you applied for better paid jobs in the same field in the past few years? re-negotiated your contract? Looked for promotion opportunities? If you aren't doing all that day then just get out now and move to a smaller and cheaper area and do something else. If nothing else it will be less stressful and you will be happier.

At the end of the day, you need to save save save and invest in a business or wisely in a commodity. That means years of living off Tuna if you don't have the capital to start with or want to get out a loan (not advisable without a sound business plan). You need to sacrifice and work hard to make it in this world if you want to retire before you are 50. Shit happens.

If you can't provide this for yourself then start saving for your kids so they can start their life journey with more benefits. Because a good degree often doesn't cut it unless you actually learn a NEEDED skill or trade. Most degrees even law, dentistry etc are a dime a dozen and you'll end up in a shitty office job barely scraping by. Let alone all the other bullshit ones.
then collage is mostly for developing life skills etc.

Life is what you make of it, but it takes time, hard work and sacrifice. Stop making excuses as to why you are stuck in a rut of your own making and stop looking for get rich quick schemes as they rarely work. Only do crypto/stocks with funds you can afford to lose.

Aye, the existence of a deity matters not to the reality of your own circumstances and what you need to do to become successful in the world. 'God will provide' or believing in fate is a cop-out. You make your own god damn luck in life.

Hey OP,

Read the whole thread and I have a feeling that you haven't addressed a fundamental issue that some of us are lucky enough to overcome - truly understanding ourselves, so much that we know precisely what we want and why we want it.

This may sound like some stupid shit that kids say, but I truly believe that half of the battle is to know who we are. Like you said it's easy to work hard if we think it's important for us. In fact, working hard towards something we believe in makes us feel alive.

The challenge may sound simple but it has been quite difficult for me. The past 2 years has been full of pretty intense depressive cycles just because I couldn't figure it out.


TL;DR: I think the reason for your diatisfaction in work stems from the fact that you're not working for something you "believe" in (or something that's not fun for you). Work can definitely be fun and makes you feel alive but you have to figure out exactly who you are, what you want and why you want it. This is something only you can overcome yourself and nobody can help you - we're all suffering from the same problem; religions are built on this sorrow.

Did you even read my post? I don't want to retire at 50, because that means another 20 years of pure suffering until then. And that isn't just hyperbole, every single fucking day is absolutely soul draining, without exception. I also don't ever want to have kids, so none of these things you mention are actual goals for me. Explain to me how any of that is preferable to suicide and just ending all the suffering right now? You're basically telling me I have to live through 20+ years of prison just to MAYBE have a shot at being happy one day when I'm really old and can't do much anymore. I don't see how you can expect any human being to willfully accept that when suicide is a viable option.

You're right, I don't really want to be anything anymore. I think I did when I was younger, but those dreams are gone after nearly a decade of this wageslaving. Like I said in the first post, I barely even feel human anymore. I feel like some kind of machine that has no real purpose to exist.

It is not suffering if you enjoy what you do and feel you are working towards something.

They make some very good points. As is usually at the root of being unhappy with things is the lack of knowing yourself. The true inner you. We follow rules set out for us from birth, education is worse, you have to jump through hoops to progress never being allowed to be yourself. I myself was on Anti-Depressants for many years and suffered a nervous breakdown. Firstly with Drs advice I came off the pills, got myself fit and healthy, worked on my diet etc and exercise routine. I had to shut out much of the advice of the world and rediscover everything about the real me. I then rebuilt my life from the ground up. from a simple thing like brushing my teeth and built up from there until I was tackling bigger problems, but this time all with a new sense of self instead of doing things the way I had been told they should be done by others.

I am me and you are you. Not all of anything anybody least alone myself will apply entirely but some may help. It is up to you to pick and chose what you take from the advice being given based on who you are as an individual.

You do not HAVE to do anything. You can quit and start again. It is only uncertainty and the fear of failure that stops you probably. It is an excuse to not try. You reap what you sow. It is up to you to change things for the better if that is what you want, otherwise just stick with what is easy. Sometimes thinking long term and taking risks is hard.

You sound like you need to learn to love yourself. You say you don't want kids and until you can love yourself, don't. I thought that at your age too kids wise.

go for a walk or something. drink plenty of water and sort your diet out for starters, then worry about other things, sort things you are not happy with one day and one step at a time. But first, you need to discover exactly what it is you do want.

Remember that unstoppable or illogical optimism about life when we were young? I try everything I can to not lose it or life becomes hell. I admire babies in that everything is naturally fun to them, they enjoy life and never takes stuff too seriously.

Jesus was right in that adults should be like kids - kids lack the wisdom and knowledge adults have to make a difference, but sometimes adults lose the optimism or DGAF-ness they had as a child to care to make a difference.

Then get one. I don't even enjoy half the shit I do but at the end of the day knowing I have been productive and improved my future in some way gives me satisfaction. The rest fo the time I get to enjoy knowing I have been working towards my future. The fact I spend too much of it jerking off online is immaterial. Because I know I have set the groundwork for a better future, So even mundane things in my free time feel like a reward. Let alone the times I get to go and enjoy a hobby or socialize. You have it in yourself to know whats right for you, you just have to stop letting other people and the world, in general, tell you what to do. I realize the irony of that seeming as a lot of people have been doing just that lol.

It is only advice, it is up to you to decide if you will run with it or not. Love yourself before you love others and fuck what everybody else thinks you should do with your life, as long as you harm nobody why does it matter. Try new things, turn your life upside down if you have to, but find what works for you. Watching some youtube fitness and business videos helped me to be honest. I got to see a small part of peoples lives and what they did and then picked and chose what I thought I would like from that and gave it a go, kept it if I liked it and discarded it if I didn't. It is all about finding that balance and what makes you happy and what doesn't while also balancing your work life with your personal life. You don't need to be rich to be happy - that might happen in time if you naturally find a niche that fits you and you are successful at it. If you never attain wealth then oh well, as long as you can provide yourself with what your body needs and you are are happy-. You just need to get comfy in your own skin and in your own life.

The only thing keeping me alive is my parents money, which I will inherit someday. But this makes me also kind of sad.
Dad was a 9-5 research economist at the IMF and got a very nice package when he left. He has about 1Mio EUR in Assets and retired with a 90k EUR annual pentions plan at 60.
Now he travelles the world and visits historical trains.

I also study econ&b.a. - i hate my fellow students who want to go into IB or Consulting and do their circle jerking in finance and consulting clubs at uni.

I enjoy fucking psych/soc/lit girls and taking drugs with their male fellows.
