Why not kill ourselves then? Cowardice?

For me, the deep existential fulfillment comes from practical compassion. Loving and being loved. Being devoted to truth. Having integrity. Doing courageous things in service of love and truth. Life is experienced as full, then, and nothing is lacking. Find meaningful work and pursue meaningful relationships.

ignore this non empathic retard with 6$ to his name.
>worried about finding love
you have to take chances (means actually talk to females) and be fine with them 'rejecting' you, but, maybe you reject them, since you should strive to seek someone that you see eye to eye with.
>memories
cultivate strength (exercise) , discipline (not making excuses not to exercise) , eat right (aka, take care of your fucking human vessel) , and just try your best to make progress at whatever thing it is that you enjoy

Is the purpose of life ultimately just to feel as much as possible before death?

>It's another demoralization-thread episode

Terror management theory

Depending on how much you made, you should be using that capital to follow your dreams.
For instance, I'm a screenplay writer working a dead end retail job.
If I made it, I would personally try and produce my own shows and hope to build an empire.
I recommend that you worry about your passions and then make memories later.

>>55584413
If youre really rich at 21 just count your blessings. You can always find problems in your, even the people that have it all.

>>55584447
What constitutes meaningful work? For me work has always been something I had to do for money. Meaningful relationships can come from what I am doing. Does that make it okay?
>>55584461
>talk to females
I do that plenty. I view rejection as an experience. I also view failed relationships as experiences.
>cultivate strength (exercise) , discipline (not making excuses not to exercise) , eat right (aka, take care of your fucking human vessel)
I do all this already. I still feel pretty empty.
>whatever thing it is that you enjoy
The only thing I ever enjoyed was saving my paychecks. That is meaningless now and no longer enjoyable. The only thing I can really say I enjoy now is being attractive and youthful but that is a well that will quickly run dry; there is no such thing as a youthful 50 year old - maybe a relatively youthful one, but that just feels like a cope to say at all.
>>55584479
>dreams
I guess that is my problem. I have none. My dream was always to just quit my job and do "whatever I want" but "whatever I want" has turned up empty.

Take a closer look

Man really you are just gonna have to accept that your path through life is just not gonna be a Normal one and that is ok. But as far as studying desperately for SATs praying you can get a high enough score to escape your shithole hometown and then getting buried in student loans and then getting out of college and feeling like you have a gun to your head every day while your student loans grow like a cancer… well that’s just not your life!!! And there are good points and bad points to that. You will miss out on some of the fun of being a “normal” young adult but you’ll miss out on a whole ton of misery and desperation too. I think the main thing is to just make sure that you don’t let your financial comfort lull you into a place where you don’t do anything productive with your time. Always pursue more knowledge and do what you can to improve and maintain your health. And find some kind of a project you can be passionate about to work at every day, and the nice thing is that in your case it doesn’t necessarily have to be anything super profitable. For example, you could grow bonsai trees or plant a vegetable garden in your backyard to sell at farmers markets. And while you are doing this you won’t experience the life and death pressure most people do because they are always trying to leverage anything they do into the maximum amount of additional income. Good luck out there and glad you have been so successful so young!

>>55584488
Checked!

I can relate to having a hard time finding your dreams.
Do you have some of your drawings or texts from when you were a kid?
Some of your older toys?

Maybe you had dreams but forgot them.
Another possibility is to imagine what you would want to do before you die in your life.
Make a list of things you want to do and experience.
That should help you.

Maybe with enough life experiences you will find what's special for you.

>>55584413
you have to take health and fitness seriously or youll never be happy

>>55584513
All that normal shit was fun for me back when it was meaningful. Life feels like a game that I beat already kind of I guess. There's nothing left to do. Even if I did "reset" and donate all my money it wouldn't be the same, and no guarantee I would even enjoy it at all this time because it's just doing the same thing all over again.
>>55584542
Thats a good idea. I have been pretty blindly experiencing as much good and bad emotion as possible. I'll try it out.

>>55584413
>after I get my cosmetic surgeries done
Lol holy shit. We got ourselves a new bog. Find a buddy and make him get the same surgeries. Then post results here. I cant wait to see you slowly lose your mind.

>>55584585
>any aesthetic surgery is bad and will be botched because I can't afford it

Hey man, you need an enemy. Start a business that steps on someone’s else’s toes and see the flame in your heart go miles high.

It’ll be extremely stressful, but it’ll either give you some perspective or it’ll make you richer.

>>55584601
Lol ive had plastic surgery before becauss i actually needed it from a childhood injury. You on the other hand are going to look like Madonna and Michael Jackson. Are you also going to add some inches to make yourself taller. Remember you need to be at least 6'4" to make good memories.

>>55584659
Ok cool. I'm getting it done because maxxing out my attractiveness is something I enjoy. I do not have body dysmorphia and I know how to set reasonable limits so that I won't ruin what I have. Why do you feel the need to attack people for enjoying something?

>>55584413
I also "made it" fairly young with a few million at 22. I am now 28. The answer to your question is to have many, many kids. Something happens, or at least happened to me in my mid-20s, where I felt an intense longing to have children. I now have 1 child and am trying for another. The satisfaction from having kids and providing them with the highest quality things in life (first class education, lots of travel, Disneyland trips, etc.) has provided me satisfaction far greater than the money ever did, and eliminated the fear of missing out on more shallow experiences that you're describing.

>>55584675
Hahaha omg you are going to ruin your life and it hasnt even started. Bog be with you my son.

>>55584681
Maybe I will hit that point some day. I hope so. I miss knowing for sure what it is that I need to do.

>>55584569
>>55584675
Everything you've described sounds like kiddy shit to me. How impressed would you be if I said I beat Elden Ring multiple times? Probably not very impressed, because the feat of beating a video game probably pales in comparison to having expansive world-changing experiences out in the world and with money.
This is how everything you've described sounds to me with kids. It makes you sound young and immature regardless of money, EXACTLY like a 10 year old telling you he beat a video game and expecting you to be super impressed. Have kids. You haven't "beaten" anything yet.

>>55584702
Holy shit breeders are retarded

>>55584413
Start fucking living then. Try different sports(surfing, wakeboardin, skiing, motocross.. Try different drugs, go party to ibiza. Holy shit, you can do what the fuck you want.

>>55584413
>>55584681
what did you guys make it with? crypto?

>>55584733
In my case, Timereum (later branded as ELIX) was my first big break. I signed up for their airdrop a ton of times and each genesis address they sent me sold for about 66k each at the peak. Then I invested here and there in other crypto. ICON was another big one for me.
Also I had a job with a 6 figure salary for a while so that helped with living expenses.

>>55584413
You have time to complain and contemplate , you have time to do something about it.

>>55584413
>Financially speaking, how do you live life to the fullest once money is no longer an issue?
Step one, go to uni and do some bullshit degree (since you've already made it you don't need one of the hard one), take some drugs and have some fun. Something like photography should have a decent number of girls on it. Avoid anything to do with science, computers, maths or engineering.

Get a motorcycle and ride it at night somewhere outside towns. Also drive at night. You'll thank me later.

OP, this universe works in energy, frequency, vibration. (look into this)

you're financially free so now you have the time to do anything in the world, i'm not trying to convert you here but the purpose of life is to be of service to others (could be making a family, random acts of helping others etc)

as you find out about energy, frequency, vibration you'll start understanding religion and how faith works, enjoy your life

TLDR, but no amount of money will guarantee safety for a lifetime. If you are still 22 you did not make it, you’d need like 50m diversified into every asset class.

Don’t get cocky too soon OP

>>55584413
I was always poor, when I was able to manage to finish college and have a decent job I feel I lost my purpose a bit, the money is there, and I even have enough in SORA just in case, but even without making it, having the stability makes me feel weird

>>55584413
Financially speaking, land is the final form of wealth and the basis of all economic activity, manufacturing, rent, water and resources, hedging and security / defence of your tribe

If you can afford it I advise you to buy either a 10-60 or a 700-1000 acre tract at the top of a local water catchment and build yourself a solar village or at least a hunting lodge . although most of them come with farm houses and buildings already there. watching your orchards grow is pretty rewarding over time and planting a tree is like a time capsule you will remember the day you planted it when you see it at 20 years old bearing huge flowers or fruit for your wife/kids. if you don't know what to do with it you can just let it all turn into forest. or you can let tenants farm it for you and be a lord. Then you would get income off it and could start building stuff like an earthen wall all the way round or vast walled gardens with big pools etc. idk man you should use your money to build something cool anyway

Profound mental illness. Good luck

>>55585352
this, at the end of the day you ideally want to be able to take care of others, feed them, clothe them, accomodate them, even employ them and give them purpose and good helpful work and even somewhere safe and nice to raise children

that is why my advice is this >>55586020

also this >>55585861
is the only way to be safe 'financially'

even owning 15 acres of raw undeveloped land will make you safe 'literally' as with some investment you can get rent from it, work / produce there, or stay there rent free and eat off the land with unlimited development potential over years

The reason you want at least a 3 bedroom property with 'privacy acreage' and a large pool and gardens and large modern bathrooms and kitchen is because that's what hot girls can't resist and what children love. When you look back when you are old you will be glad if you established a base for your family

>>55584413
just go out with your friends. take every oportunity to do something fun with them, doesn't need to be expensive or luxurious, pay for them if they don't have the money

>>55584413
no matter what you do and how you do it, if you live long another you're going to be old and it's going to suck. Being 80 and having done alot of stuff in the past vs being 80 and having done nothing in the past, it doesn't matter because you're still 80 and it still sucks ass

>>55584413
no matter what you do and how you do it, if you live long enough you're going to be old and it's going to suck. Being 80 and having done alot of stuff in the past vs being 80 and having done nothing in the past, it doesn't matter because you're still 80 and it still sucks ass

>>55584488
I don't post on here often. But some advice from someone that has done a hell of a lot even without mega bucks.
Have kids and build a powerful, loving extended family. Give it your all and you will be repaid x100.
Also the money isn't meant to be for you dingus, it's for your kids to enjoy and you will get spiritual fulfillment when you see them happy. It's that simple.
Life and money is meant to be shared not hoarded.

>>55584413
I have exhausted the hedonistic life, there is nothing to find there but emptiness. Spend all your young years seeking out love, companionship, only waste a minimum of your time on hedonistic pleasures. Freedom is not the answer either, I have achieved total freedom and it is total loneliness. Only genuine human relations matters, everything else is pain.
Finding love takes effort, courage, and is painful, but you must do it. Do not be lazy about it, hurry.

>>55584440
what anon is saying is there is no point to life, so stop philosophising on meaning and just life. You lived a life of debauchery for a few years and now you want to stop? cool, stop. Doesnt have to be this massive internal struggle, just live.

>>55584413
>once I get my cosmetic surgeries
lol, lmao even. Embarrassing!

>>55584413
>everything has revolved around my intense fear of wasting my youth.
Wouldn't say that spending your youth in "intense fear" is wasteful?
>used to be obsessed with making money for the benefit of my future, but now I'm overly concerned with making memories for the benefit of my future
The obsessiveness is the common factor.
>Is the purpose of life ultimately just to feel as much as possible before death
Why are you asking someone to "give you a purpose" as if were some job? Are you not implicitly asking to spend your life being ordered around?

OP sums it up nicely. You need something to keep you busy, whether that be work or school. In fact most people will be more depressed with all the riches in the world than at their goyslop job.
I know it's tough to stomach, but it's the truth. You won't be happy alone with millions of dollars. You will feel nothing because everything with lose value.
The friends you people have at mcdonalds or burger king are going to be 100x more valuable than the people you meet once you've made it. Cherish them.

College is a good idea but I wouldn’t necessarily be in a rush, especially since you’ve already delayed it and since you made it you can carefully execute and go to the best college possible.

How did you make it? What are your ambitions, if you have any? I think it’s hard to say what is and isn’t a waste of youth if you don’t have a direction you want to head in. I didn’t figure that out until I was almost thirty and at that point, my twenties were over and I couldn’t do what I wish I had done with them. I could’ve gotten lucky and done the right things unknowingly but that’s it. If you have the leisure time and resources to do what you want but you can’t answer the two questions above, you should probably think about that.

>>55587642
Being busy isn’t enough. Some people can be satiated just by being busy. Some people will need to be busy with something that is worthwhile. Mere business for these people is a waste of time and thus a waste of life for these people of that business isn’t worthwhile. So the task should be not only to be busy but to identify something worth being busy with and then busying oneself with it. And that it can change as you go through life.

>>55584413
Nice blog faggots, but I'm not believing you until you let me live in your houses and pay me 1000$ a month so I can believe I have a future and kids.
Give me the rich life and then I'll say if it's worth it or not. C'mon I'll even let you give me psychological tests because I sure as fuck am not superficial dumb person, I'm suicidal.
If money can convince a suicidal depressive person since he was 2 years old to say life is worth living then you've contributed greatly to science. Of course it all depends how you use it. i swear to god i'll fucking kill you if you shove me into expensive 300+ people parties where I not only know now one, but those people are douchebags that'd kill you at a moment's glance.
So what do you say faggot, do we have a deal?

>This board is useless as anything other than a blog and meme posting.

>>55584413
pushing 40, haven’t made it to the extent that I don’t need a job or anything, but I have traveled the world and had some amazing experiences. what I can tell you for certain is that I don’t look back on my life and regret the things I did, I only regret the things I could have done, or wanted to do, but didn’t. I strongly suggest you continue to live your life like it’s an adventure, don’t hold back, and when the time is right (or when the girl is right) you’ll do what other anons here have said and have children, which will give your life meaning in ways you never thought possible (there is no need to rush into this, however, and in fact picking the wrong woman for this can be devastating, so be patient, have high standards with who you would allow to be the mother to your children, and consider this more of a long term goal)

>>55588264
Give examples please. The tragedy of youth is that you often only know what you should have done in retrospect.

>hit on every girl you see
>start a business
>start a band
>backpack through europe
>write a book/make a film/etc creative hobby
>go cooming in thailand
>sail around the world
idk what you’re into anon but so it will be different for each person but I’m just saying the things I regret are the girls I think I could’ve banged if I just had the balls to make my move, the business ideas I had and was too lazy to pursue (especially if we’re talking post-made it where you could hire people to do most of the work), etc. Looking back, I wish I was a person who said yes instead of no, but more than that I wish I was a more proactive person who made my own opportunities and/or seized the ones the universe presented to me.
to be clear, I’m not some miserable depressed person today. I make good money and have kids with a beautiful woman almost half my age. but in terms of advice for younger anons, I would say worry less and take action. easier said that done, perhaps, but as someone who’s literally been there, that is my advice.
