That's cool I guess but you can earn more as a software engineer living anywhere you want instead of an offshore oil rig.

How do you engineer petroleum dawg

This is all bullshit. None of you are making that much money.

If you are then the companies paying you are fools.

>im poor and retarded so you are to

>>51461895
What makes you think I'm retarded? There is literally no relation between intelligence and income.

This little girl is making hundreds of millions of dollars per year, by your own logic she is smarter than you right?

>>51461935
intelligence is the definition of probability to (monetary) success. retard

>>51461935

Intelligence correlates with income with an r-squared of 0.4

>>51461958
Sorry this is just too retarded for even my retard-friendly brain to handle. There's a level of sentience you have to be at before meaningful communication can take place. I'll see what that other chump responds back.

>>51461994
>muh correlation
Hundreds of thousands of things correlate with each other.

>>51462014
I mean with income*.

>>51462014

Intelligence is the best predictor of income, followed by conscientiousness.

>>51462037
It's really not. Social studies likes that are always confounded by tons of other factors.

Holy mother of poor fag cope.
Get a life you loser, high paying jobs are everywhere for anyone with a STEM background.
Learn to pivot or you truly are retarded.

>>51462105
I thought studying IT would be a good route.
What the fuck is this shit?

How do I get rich? What do I do? I'm an 18yo white male btw.

What's it like?
How did you get your job?
What is an interview like? Do you have to take Phenibut to do it?

I'm a highschool dropout with NOTHING.
$20/hr sounds god-tier to me.

Imagine spending the best years of your life on an oil rig, then coming ashore with your savings and attempting to form any relationship with other people

>>51463139
>relationship
>with other people
No. I work so I can one day be left alone.

I make $300,000 a year driving Uber

$1000 invested into SHIB/LEASH jan2021
im bad at math, stopped counting after 50m

It's a very easy job. I get paid vacations and breaks, I can jam music or podcasts all night and just mind my own buisness (3rd shift). I work for an S&P 500 company, so I have really good benefits too. The middle-management is complete garbage though.

When I turned 18 and got out of high-school, I just walked in and applied. Got it immediately. Had to do a hair test for meth and heroine, they don't care about weed. I only applied because it's 5 minutes from my house. If it was far, I'd do something else.

Interview is really simple. They'll just ask some basic questions about past job history and they might give you an IQ test (even though it's technically illegal).

Idk what Phenibut is.

Ya, I've been here for 10 years (I'm 28 now). It really gets old and boring after a while. I don't hate anyone here, but I want to quit just for a change of scenery. I live in the rural midwest (ohio) and work 50 hours a week. My average yearly income is usually around $50-$60k. Last year I made $85k, but I worked like a slave, it wasbt worth it IMO.

I originally wanted to get into finance and start my own mutual fund, but Kent State University charges like $120k for a 2 year Buisness Associates and 4 year Bachelors Degree in Finance. I grew up poor as fuck, but not poor enough to get welfare, so there was no way I could afford it. I just invest as a hobbie now.

>>51462037
Tribal affiliation is the best indicator of income. The orthodox little-used tribe has an average household income over 200k and the women don't work outside the home.

Genuinely thank you for the detailed response. You have no idea how useful this information is to me. I'm in a shit spot in my life right now, but I'm thinking I may be able to make it if I do something like you are while keeping my cost-of-living expenses low (by living in a van, and yes I will fall for the meme). This gives me hope.

>>51463396

There's nothing wrong with van-life man. You gotta do, what you gotta do, to survive. I've even thought about, just to try something different.

My mother's apartment flooded last October, so she moved into my 2-bedroom apartment.

My 2 bedroom is only $815/mo. I pay 2/3 rent, the electric, the internet/cable and the insurance. She pays 1/3 rent and she buys the groceries, cooks, cleans and does the laundry. It actually worked out for both of us with shit getting so expensive.

>>51461935
cute and funny channel

>>51463354
Just do it at Kent state Tusc. Also why have you not gotten into maintenance?

You’re me but I’m in central Ohio and went into maintenance

>>51464292

>>51464292

The maintenance at my factory is just jerry rigging everything honestly, and they're dickheads. It's not interesting to me.

>>51464306

I'd rather do in-person classes. I think I would learn a lot better. The local Kent by me doesn't offer finance. The main campus is only like 30-45 minutes away, but the total cost per year is ridiculous.

I'll check it out though, thanks!

>>51464334
I wanted to get into engineering and this was my first step to it, but pay is comparable with the engineering salary it’s hard for me to stay motivated to finish my degree.

Online is better if the school/prof has a good setup. You can always rewind the lecture if you miss something or don’t understand. Not like you’re doing STEM.

All professions have their advantages and disadvantages.

Poorfag Sciencefag checking in. Thinking of doing a masters of geology as it seems like the only science that makes money in austfailure. Seems the only negative is its mostly fly in fly out work

>>51461703

>>51465773

>>51462037
I believe "the ability to plan ahead" was deemed more important than raw intellect in a few studies. Foresight, I suppose.

Making 155k this year in my third year getting rich Chinese kids into college.

Job is stressful in a way that will absolutely take years off my life, but the hours are fantastic (about 600WFH a year over Zoom) and I love the work itself. Also the money in this field is so fucking real if you’re good at it or at least convince people you are. The stress is so real tho.

When I was 20 years old and decided to learn more about crypto, I could still recall how I got my journey with airdrops and used that sum to invest in. I'm now living the life I've always wanted and investing in Xpress, Iris, Icx, vet, and eth. Diversification is the key.
