I just don't get it. If I could even make 50k a year I'd be set. I just don't want to work more than 40 hours a week. I am pretty young 20ish, Not in college cause everyone I'm around tells me it's a scam if you don't go into STEM. I don't have any particularly useful skills, what do I do? Invest in Crypto? I just don't get it, there's like 1000 different coins and all I see is it's been going down over the past 5 years, but I recognize that I had opportunities to make alot of money at different points in time if I had just taken the jump. Stocks are more reliable, I understand these more cause I understand why stocks are valuable, and how they work etc. I just don't know how to actually make money with them. I've bought some silver (70 oz) just because it's what I can afford while keeping enough USD to survive, but have some silver in case of Weimar 2.0.

Should I go to college for a STEM degree? Learn programming? I can draw decently, and I could learn 3D modeling fairly quickly I think. Got 2+ years of Japanese. Can read and watch Manga/Anime, but could focus more on it to make a job out of it. I just want to be able to buy some land.

College is for people without skills, fathers who own a business or just maybe taking one of the handful of good degrees out there (hard business and mathematics). Most STEM degrees (science and engineering) are just babbified math and have tiny job markets with boomers that have tenure and pulled up the ladder. The only good business degree is accounting which teaches you everything you need to start your own business and you can be an wfh accountant to make capital quickly in a few years. You can learn programming and get certified on your own and certifications yet you job offers, not a toilet paper degree.

Do things that are in demand. Right now basic commodities, oil, and housing are in demand, therefore learn to harvest lumber, work on an oil rig, or be a construction worker.

This seems to be the only skill you have currently so I'd start with trying to make money on that and then try your other suggestions if you can't make it work

Nobody in their 20's wants to work 40 hours a week. I sure as fuck didn't want to. It's okay though, you'll spend some time being a fuckup, then hopefully you decide to wise up. That 40 hour a week paycheck can become a springboard to something better. I suggest you find yourself somewhere to work where you enjoy working with the people there already, put your head down and put in the work, get good at something, pickup as many hours as you can..if you are working, you're not spending. Start reading everything finance/crypto/stocks, and take an informed approach to your finances and future.

Should I go to college for a STEM degree?

if you're good and like math and physics, if not then not. depends on your math grades. engineering is where most people drop out
because they dont have math talent and go for in hopes to get a decent job

you cant test your mathematics ability at
https://humanbenchmark.com/

visual memory test correlates strongly with math skills which are genetic. some people are good at math and suck in verbal memory(engineers typically) and other people are the opposite. some are good at both having good memory in all areas

Pretty similar to what my dad says lol

I've thought about the Oil Rig, and Construction worker, but I don't want to work more than 40 hours.

Should I try and to Manga/Anime translation? Or Do business japanese for companies? I have more passion for Manga, but business japanese pays way better. What's a good balance of passion and income?

>>50684375
Yea, I'm okay with working more than 40 if I can secure a good future, so I could go on an oil rig, work there for some/most of my 20s, save up alot of money, but then what? Finance/Crypto/Stocks? Do you have any places to start on learning that?

Interestingly, the one you say has the biggest correlation with math is my worst lol. I'm worse than average at it, and I tried alot too. Most I only did 2-3 times, chimp test I did once cause it was so long and so bored, I probably could get 20 but idc.

So this is an interesting idea, the only issue, to make some actually okay money, cause you have to hold either for many years at a time before the ratios are right. To make money this way would take decades. Unless I'm misunderstanding something.

Just having a degree and rubbing shoulders with the right company got me hired for a super cozy job that makes my friends seethe. It's not sustainable in the long term because it doesn't give many hours, but it's the perfect learning opportunity/springboard and pays well.
