Shut the fuck up you pussy

>>56691616
Finish your bachelor's at least and find something to do for a few days a week OP, lest you end up like your uncle. It doesn't matter if it's volunteering or a small business that doesn't bring in any real money, you just need something to keep you from falling into depression/addiction like your uncle.

>>56691616
I wanted to include this, but I had been blabbing for too much. But one thing I tried doing a couple year ago was replay old games from my childhood to comfort myself. Since I was a dumbass kid, I never could use any cheats or mod my games. As an adult I had access to those things and I'd turn on all of the cheats in the shit I'd play, play for a few hours and never do it again. Eventually, I realized I had been ruining the fun of it all, and that's why it was boring.

That is how I feel now but on an insane scale. All I do is lie about where I am all day when really I'm just watching movies, playing instruments, and sitting in my chair on my computer.

Dont reveal it imo

See it as an opportunity to do what you want to do without stressing about it ie. Learn something you enjoy doing and maybe turn it into a business (though it doesnt even need to be that profitable) on the way, dont be conceived into thinking it will be an endless money stream, it could stop anytime, your insane government just needs to flick a finger

I would probably build a workshop and do woodworking for fun, while selling it, doing something with your hands keeps you sane

>But these past few weeks I stopped going to classes bc it's just fucking pointless.

your uncle must be rolling in his grave at what hes done hahaha

>>56691616
oddly, money also made me depressed. I made a "proper crypto trade" and ended up with a good amount of cash. I wanted to celebrate and hang out with my IRL friends. I contacted them, told them my situation, and they didn't want anything to do with me anymore. in fact, some of them told me they were simply jealous. I guess the moral of the story is to never tell Anyone that you've got money. it really changes shit.

Shut up you ungrateful fuck

>>56691654
Wasnt very smart to tell them the whole thing, you shouldve just said you got lucky on trades, and want to celebrate, never be too specific, if people have an actual number in their brain that they can relate to (ie. How much they would need to work for it) it drives jealously

the eternal wagie lol
what you do is adjust to your new status
you are a big guy now, so go do big things
start a company, buy a nice car.

>>56691668
To downplay it while never being specific is probably the best route, also for OP, never reveal everything but its clear people will notice some more cash and thats okay, though if you do a business it camouflages it and gets them off you i guess

>>56691654
your best bet is to hang out with younger ambitious people who think theyre going to make it too, and also havent yet had to suffer for money so they dont understand the value

>>56691639
I have been mindlessly keeping busy, but I just couldn't at one point. And it would take ultimately meaningless effort from myself to try and catch up on all three of my classes fast enough in-time for finals which are in a few weeks. I said to myself I need to keep busy or I'd die and now I stopped and I don't know. There's really is no point. A part of me always said 'oh, if I was rich I'd still be working hard!' lol

>>56691648
I have been enabled to have my dream guitar and amp, although they could be a lot more impressive with what I had access to, I was planning on saving up to buy it before I fell into this money.

>>56691653
Maybe lol

>>56691654
That's what I'm scared of, even though I know a lot of my family and girlfriend have done an incredible amount for me.

>>56691655
I know

>>56691671
I just don't need to and that's the thing. I live with my family. We could live for three years how we've been living currently in our low-middle class home. No bills, and insanely low financial stress for all of us, and still have enough to save so that I could buy what I used to call a Minecraft house, because they're so big and elegant it's like one of the minecraft luxury homes I'd build in that game. There's no point for my step-mom, dad, to be working. There's no reason for my step-bro/sis to be asleep right now for class tomorrow. Yes I do want to spoil them and give them everything and have a large massive vacation, and we could do that and STILL have enough to save to do all of what I just said. But I just don't know what we'd do at the end of it.

>>56691680
He will end up with grifters shilling him their new best business idea

>>56691643
You could just learn any skill you want. Do anything you want. Become an artist. Become a carpenter. Volunteer to do shit for your community. It doesn't have to be for money either. People like to accomplish things so if you're just lazing around all day you won't feel fulfilled.

>>56691616

Nice larp anon.

>>56691674
Now that you say that, I take back what I said in reply to >>56691671, if I started a business, I could at least pretend that I worked my way there, and still have a connection to people, which I already struggled with before this. It's just that's not what I personally want to do for myself, and I have no idea how to even find that.

>>56691709
If you think it's a larp then you might as well get creative and play along. Then there's a chance you could be giving good advice and that is helpful and admirable even if it's ultimately for a larper.

>>56691695
don't hang out with losers or you'll become one

don't act like your addicted father or you'll become like him

one thing that uni could have taught u is the value of routines and discipline, but in the end sticking around for just that lesson using years of your life is not efficient unless you also have a passion for the uni subjects.
*stick to and regularly re-evaluate healthy and engaging routines every day or you'll become disorganized and falter in due time

>>56691720

Just like most anons on this board, I too dream of making it one day. I'd say travel the world, go on vacations all across the world and expand your horizons. Travelling enriches and broadens the mind.>>56691720

>>56691725
Do you see why I can't? There's zero reason. I understand that it instills discipline, because I used to be a shit student. I failed once and had to appeal for my FAFSA grants and became a hard worker through deluding myself that this is what I'd have to do to achieve an ok lifestyle for the rest of my life. Now there's no reason to keep doing that to myself. I was to a point where I cried to a professor explaining to her why I was falling behind in class due to financial problems.

>>56691739
This is what I always dreamt of. To take my family, my girlfriend, across the world and experience it with all of them. It's just I don't know how to explain the logistics of that to them. How can I just pop-up and fix/save all my immediate/close/semi-close/distant relatives that are going to hear about it and want a piece too, and how am I going to navigate and filter through the bullshit of it all from them.

>>56691748
>How can I just pop-up and fix/save all my immediate/close/semi-close/distant relatives
>fix/save

the irony. youre destroying yourself. anyone you give some money to is going to do what youre doing right now: stagnate and die having been a net drain on the family/society. if you give a nephew $20k and he will drop out of college and try to daytrade etc. so before you wave money in peoples faces, live by example and become the kind of person youd want your family to be if you gave them money.

>>56691616
so he passed on his curse to you huh
you are already bearing it better as evidenced by you giving away some to your family while alive

now start thinking hard and good about what you want to do for the world
Ideally you get rid of the money and resume normal life but I know that is too much to ask of most (including me)
Barring that I've found that dedicating your life to helping others or bringing some kind of happiness into the world may be the only way to bear it.

how has nobody asked OP how much money this piece of land brings him a month. tell us OP pls

>>56691616
OP, stay in college and get a degree. You have the rest of your life to sit at home and be a bum. I recommend you set some goals and work for them. It would be easy for you to fall into addiction like your uncle and waste your life. You need goals and structure in your life and if you don't have that it will fall into chaos. Unironically read Jordan Peterson's 12 rules for life if you need some structure.

>>56691616
Just keep being a wagie and get passive income on top of your wage to leave well, where's the problem?

>>56691616
Ok I read the rest of your post. I'd be you I'd take a year to travel around the world and think about myself, then I'd go back to university in order to graduate into something that really interested me.
Given that among you're first thoughts you offered to pay for your gf's debt you must be what we call in arabic someone hnin, look out for yourself and don't disclose your wealth to anyone but familly.

>>56691616
can I please have like 20 dollars?

>>56691791
I can't do the insane luxury things I want to do, while not also making my immediate family that I care about, and close family aware of the money I have access to.

>>56691814
Yep it blows my mind

>>56691845
I didn't have to bear much of the burden of solving the logistics but the oil royalties are based on the demand of oil at the time, and by how many acres of land you own. I dont want to give a figure but I feel my posts give some scale >>56691695

>>56691886
Thanks I do have much more time to read

>>56691896
I really don't need to

>>56691914
I'm not sure what a hnin is, could you explain further?

Also send me money

>>56691748
My advice would be to first and foremost save so much money from your monthly checks to put yourself back into the position where you were at first. (e.g. you were earning 2K monthly before this then save everything above that 2k) This should keep you grounded until you find out what you really want to do with your life.

Then start a business that encompasses your interests (you like guitars so open up a guitar shop and give back to your local community) or something that ties in to the skills you've learned in UNI.

I got laid off this year and have been depressive fuck as I had no motivation to do anything until my severance pay came in (it still hasn't) and now I built up bad habits and even worse work ethic than what I started with.

>>56691748
>This is what I always dreamt of. To take my family, my girlfriend, across the world and experience it with all of them
so....where do i start.....
first off as you probably already discovered money is an incredible burden. poorfags have the luxury of never understanding and they actually truly believe that money is going to "solve their problem(s)"
you wanting to give those around you a better life is admirable but ultimately very misguided. you will simply ruin their lives the same way you are ruining your own.

source: i worked for years with a boutique lawfirm (i'm not a lawyer - support staff) that had several very high net worth clients and we did their tax / estate planning. I've seen it all upclose and its quite a saga

>he did not find a NEET femcel gf while he was a poor wagie
ngmi

>>56691951
Good luck anon. You're suggesting to load a savings account with everything (I'd use multiple accounts), then put like $10,000 in an accessible account, and keep moving forward like nothing happened? I could see that helping me delude myself from the meaninglessness of it all.

>>56691975
It's blowing my mind

>>56691998
I do have a very great gf and we have incredible communication. I'm about 95% confident that she'd be the same girl after I revealed to her the money. But that 5% is terrifying

>>56692032
Yeah just save whatever brings you back to the level you were on, don't spend it all on cool toys but invest (in yourself, stocks, houses depending on how much you got). This way you can still grow your wealth exponentially and any toys you do want will require you to sell assets to fund it thus making the bar higher to fall into the serotonin scam of consooming.

>>56691814

>I do have a very great gf and we have incredible communication. I'm about 95% confident that she'd be the same girl after I revealed to her the money. But that 5% is terrifying
i'm worth 8 figs and my wife of 20+ years doesnt know. she knows i have "crypto money" and knows that its over 1m....but doesn't know any specifics. proceed very carefully with your gf as you cant unsay something once you do
i have kept things this quiet because i still have young kids. its quite likely the burden of money will destroy their life unless these things are planned very carefully
(cue poorfag screetching now)

this is the single worst place to ask for advice on what to do with money.
>buy a lambo
won't make you happy
>start a business
almost all businesses fail, so if you want to be miserable about wasting your inheritance on something you are absolutely not prepared for, this will make things worse
>invest in X
unless X is an index fund you're just gambling, you'll just be a gambling addict
>give to charity
will NOT make you happy unless you've done this before and found it enjoyable. like if you've never volunteered for the fun of it giving to charity isn't going to make you feel any better.
>help out family
you'll get taken advantage of and eventually become bitter and lonely because of how your money isolates you and prevents anyone from forming real attachments to you
>travel
might work if you've never done it before but just as easily might make you feel like you're wasting your time.

if you've got a shit personality then money isn't going to fix that and neither is a mongolian basket weaving imageboard.

>>56691814
>so he passed on his curse to you huh
>you are already bearing it better as evidenced by you giving away some to your family while alive
he will just unironically inflict the curse on his family who may fare worse with the burden
>now start thinking hard and good about what you want to do for the world
absolutely correct! the rub comes in that it turns out its 100x harder to effectively give away money and do good with it than it is to earn it. quite the conundrum

>>56692173
>almost all businesses fail
Usually because of lack of money. If money is not a factor, you can have a business as a "hobby" pretty much indefinitely. For example the guitar store someone else mentioned ITT. If you can pay the rent and utilities for the building, there is 0 chance of the business failing. OP can easily become one of those hobbyist stores that is open 2.5 days a week (if you're lucky) on the most random hours, only when OP feels like it.

It doesn't have to be this exact example, but it applies to a lot of smaller businesses.

if you pay their mortgage they'll just reverse mortgage their houses

>>56692353
nah. the realities are going to bust this pretty quick.
just wait until the first fine member of the public comes in and tries to scam him or they flashmob grab guitars off the wall and run out, or simply druggie comes in with a gun and says 'this is a stick up'
a bizness is not a hobby and anyone who thinks so doesn't get it. dealing with the public is 7 times out of 10 a huge hassle that is filled with various liabilities. (ie. I BOUGHT THIS GUITAR 6 MONTHS AGO AND NOW ITS SCRATCHED!?!?!?!?!?!)
i'd give such a venture 1 year tops before he is back to where he started from....

welcome to having money!

>>56691748

Shame, if you were single and living alone it'd probably be a lot easier to get away with travelling so much. I guess there is no easy answer to your question, you're either honest and run the risk of being backstabbed by family or lie and live a life where you're unable to truly enjoy your wealth. Whatever happens anon, I hope you find your answer.

>>56692387
Seems like OP should just make sure not to open his shop in a shithole, even then he could only open at appointment, like the other anon said, its not about making money per se

>>56692387
For all he cares he could making custom made guitars and just sell those online if he doesn't want a physical store or just hire someone to manage the store so he doesn;t have to be there

>>56691653
What this guy said OP. If this is not a larp. Why the hell would you disgrace your uncle's suffering by not continuing on with your life and trying to do something.

>>56692114
I have the rights to around 800+ acres. The money made per month changes based on demand of oil, but one thing that got it going immediately was getting a signing bonus which apparently varies from $8k-$18k times however many acres of land you own that comes with each new lease with whoever the fuck and then you get the money actually gained from the oil each month and it's a whole bunch of shit and it's given me a fuckton of money immediately and it keeps going

>>56692161
Do you feel it changed anything with your wife? Have you always been rich, or has she always known you to be financially secure? What about your friends?

>>56692173
>>56692353
The business thing is the only one that is ok. I could fuck up over and over again. I guess it would be nice to make some sort of affordable shop ran by dedicated wellpaid people for some niche hobby

>>56692373
Lol

>>56692387
>>56692402
Good things to look out for and keep in mind, thanks

>>56691942
>I can't do the insane luxury things I want to do, while not also making my immediate family that I care about, and close family aware of the money I have access to.

How is it possible that they don't already know about the wealth?

>>56691616
don’t serve mammon, serve Christ

OP: the point of money is to support acquiring, and keeping a wife & kids happy. Of course you don't feel joy from it now because you don't have a wife and kids. You still.need to find a good wife but the money solves about 40% of the potential problems there.

>>56692437
yes online would be better.

trust me, I struggle with all this shit and there are no easy answers. sadly this board is not conducive to talking about it because of the medium, so can be hard to convey
but suffice it to say, money will fuck with your head ....and continue to fuck with your head day after day and week after week and make these endeavors feel foolish. the repeated exposure to this reality wears you down (ie. you made $165,000 today in crypto and you made $168 this week with your online guitar store.....wtf are you even doing? why?)

>>56691616
go back to school and/or maintain structure/routine in your life, stop being a dumbass with this "I won" mentality and actually work on yourself

>>56692442
>Do you feel it changed anything with your wife? Have you always been rich, or has she always known you to be financially secure? What about your friends?
nope changed nothing with wife.
she married me when i had nothing but owned my own business. been with me through it all and over 20+ years made enough in biz to buy 500k house outright, fund kids college savings, etc. however we live a very middle-class life....she knows i've dabbled in bitcoin and knows it appeals to me since i've babbled for 20 years about evils of the fed, sound money, etc...hahahha

as for friends, they all know that i *had* a successful biz so probably suspect i may be worth 1m, but dont know that its much more than that... but as i said i dont live with any outward appearance of this money. i drive a 5 year old honda civic for example.

>>56691616
So give me your money, so you will be happy, and I wil be happy

>>56692445
My dad's side of the family is native, and he was disowned by his immediate family for having my brother in bumfuck nowhere and eventually moves to an eastern state and starts his life there. He never truly understood his family's potential wealth because no one gave a fuck to pay his parents what they rightfully owed, and if they did it wasn't nearly as much as they have to do now. Pure natives that truly also live on the rez on addicts/alcoholics/gamblers etc. too, so I'm sure my grandparents were fucked as well considering what they disowned my dad for. His brother came into my life late but we really bonded and loved each other a lot, and I always remember him as being the one to give me awesome toys and shit. By the time we knew of his drug problem, we figured he only had enough to fund it. Near the end he admitted to me that he'd felt he never deserved the money because of shit he did in the past and that he never wanted to come back into my dad's life by buying him back in. By the time my uncle came back into my dad's life, he had inherited the land and it was the peak of the oil boom in the area. If my uncle never came back into my dad's life and never truly knew of me, he probably would've wrote my dad's name in and fucked his brain with it instead

>>56692438
That's the very thing. The obligation that I need to be doing something because other people have suffered to get me to this meaningless point

>>56692547
>and he was disowned by his immediate family for having my brother in bumfuck nowhere

Sorry miswrote I've been up all night
Dad was disowned by immediate family and by brother (my uncle)

>>56692547
That's all also why I feel more of a fraud since I don't even connect with my native side at all lol it's just so happens my dad was native. I grew up identifying with my mom's side more, and barely knowing of my dad's shitty side of his family

>>56691616
get money and fakes will come along, still better to be loaded and alone than poor.

>>56692547
>The obligation that I need to be doing something because other people have suffered to get me to this meaningless point
ever considered trying to raise a functional and happy family
there is a task both worthy, difficult and requiring half a lifetime to complete
let your line break free from the wagie cage, most people dont understand this is always a multi generational undertaking

still dont get all the blackpill answers in this thread, in the entire fiat world money solves almost all problems and lack of it is completely debilitating
or are even low tier wagies in murica so rich they can afford to not care about money

>>56691616
Just don't tell anyone and go do whatever wagie thing you wanted to do before.
It's not a curse unless you make it a curse. Money is the ability to say "No, thank you." when you want to. It's only a blessing unless you can't imagine voluntary struggle.

Be a wagie and start a family, man. Learn how to invest and establish dynastic wealth instead of spending what you're getting. Simple as.

>>56692674
>blackpill
you're probably meaning some of my post. i should clarify that i'm not blackpilled at all. and i agree that family is about all that matters in reality.
my point about the burden of money is to make op feel less alone. almost no one talks about this and its really impossible to talk about (you're complaining about having money!?!?!?!? give it to me!!!! stfu pussy, etc).

people think the hedonic treadmill is a joke and its not. even if you arent buying lambos the hedonic treadmill can still grind you down because it saps all ability to do anything because "anything" is more effort / less return then just opening mailbox and cashing automatic check.....

that is entirely a (you) problem, some people have emotional control
as to the second part of your sentence, how the fuck do you see the entire world through the lens of a wagie
everything you say is oh noes any job i do pays less than my passive woe is me i am of useless
i already said one thing to do and that is things that arent expressed in money
how is not being shackled to mr noseberg so you can spend your time with your family in any way bad, really the protestant work ethic really did a number on you guys

there is no upper limit on how much time you can invest in your family and dont dare to reply with i cant find the motivation cause again thats entirely a (you) problem

>>56691616
Focus on the goals. You want a family with your GF? Start calculating the costs of a Kid, house, school. Or even ask how many kids you GF would want.

Don't buy into vanity. No one will care what care you drive for more than a few months these days. But someone will care if you managed to save businesses as an Angel Investor.

If family isn't on you agenda, I'd say assess your morales and what you would not do. Focus on what you wouldn't do as to avoid places such as Red Light Countries. This way if you think you want to travel, avoid thailand's red light district.

REMEMBER: Money is only a tool, it's a good servant but a horrible master.

When you make it, don't let the world trick you into giving back so quickly. An investment in the right places can keep you going for your goals with much less financial stress.

>>56692801
That feels like the problem for me
I've always been a low middle-class wagie and it sent me into depression, and I broke through it that ultimately it is my worldview that gives life meaning. I started to appreciate doing this the hard way, or 'the grind' in order to get to where I could have the time to do what I wanted to do in my free time. I found admiration in my dad and myself for doing things on our own through will and perserverance and now it feels like it was all for nothing. I'm apprehensive of it all because I know it will affect the people around me and I know it will affect them in incredibly positive ways and potentially relationship-ending life-ending ways and it terrifies me. And everyone is telling me I have it made.

>>56692907
You don't have it made, you haven't made anything. Get a grip, anon.
You have been granted the power of minor veto. You can say "No" to wagie level authorities. There are bigger forces out there that might still exercise power over you and your children.
What are you going to make? Decide.

>>56691616
The problem with being handed extreme wealth is it removes the incentive to keep growing and working in real life. The solution is to look inward and begin the struggle of conquering your mind, body, and spirit while remaining grateful that you have the opportunity to do these things because of your wealth. Finding a charity or donating to those who need it can also be a source of great joy, you could help animals instead of people if you're burned out by them and need time to heal before you can get back out there. Go to your local animal shelter and make a list of shit they need then go buy it and give it to them, volunteer in your community, heck volunteer to hang out with the animals or work at the shelter. Find a hobby you never thought you could afford and go balls deep in it.

Happiness is a choice and you don't have to choose sadness and pain unless you want to.

>>56691616
>Now I made it and I don't know what to do now.
You've discovered that money is work - in a sense. Actually, the allocation of money is a form of work, and when you do e.g. wage labor, you are actually performing a work-work swap, performing low-volatility work (going to the office every day or whatever the case may be) in order to gain access to high-volatility work (making decisions about what to purchase). We could, if we just looked at the increase in volatility, say that money is a form of freedom, but if we also take into account the existence of work, see that "having money" is a form of slavery all on its own.
If you have $1K in your account, this is not an operative factor, since the allocation-decision is either pretty clear (necessities or small luxury goods), and not weighty if made incorrectly. However, as the amount of money to allocate grows, the demand to allocate that money becomes the dominant factor, and the curse of money springs into effect. And that curse is to still be a slave, but to not even have one's slavery acknowledged anymore: to be a slave who is called "free"; an outcast even among slaves.
As for the more specific effects of said curse: you will feel guilty (and be made to feel guilty), and feel the need to allocate that money "well": some people buy luxury items, some give it away, some "do something productive" with it (an effort that generally ends in failure due to demographics and lack of business-knowledge), some will try to buy their way back into the good graces of their fellow slaves by allowing themselves to be grifted.
This brings us to what you "should do". Nothing, there is no "should", that's psychological blackmail. Do whatever with it, it's not my problem. I merely supply you with the information about the nature of the curse of money.

>>56692547
Thank you for the reply. You mentioned your girlfriend. If you love her and really enjoy time spent together, get her to stop working and travel together. Move into a very nice condo and decorate it together. Enjoy your time and take care of your family, but stop worrying about what they will think.
Life is short. I'm in my 50s and am hoping to retire form my job soon, to spend the decent years I have left having fun with my girlfriend, taking care of my aging parents, and maintaining my property. You are young and have the opportunity to actually enjoy your life instead of waging until you're too old. Don't fuck it up.

>>56692853
>hat is entirely a (you) problem
yes it is. any personality flaws how small get magnified by money so you do need to improve yourself.
>oh noes any job i do pays less than my passive woe is me i am of useless
yes, but enough wealth causes every single person to increasingly think like this....you personally also think like this rightnow, but you're ignoring it....every financial decision you make is based on this calculation (not your "oh no i'm useless", but there are things not worth your effort given the return).

>and dont dare to reply with i cant find the motivation cause again thats
i have a happy family who i spend lots of time with and life is good. basically calm down dude, you've primed yourself for some big disagreement and its just some ppl hanging around talking....this will be you one day.

you'll learn that gambling is unironically the end-game of getting rich
nobody else in the world can comfortably lose 100k a night at the slots except the rich
but do it on rollbit since its the most rewarding casino in the world(highest rakeback etc)

>>56691975
>money is an incredible burden
it's funny how rich retards say that but when it comes to pay more taxes to share their wealth or to give the majority of it to poors suddenly they prefer to keep it

>>56693060

>share wealth
Taxes do not go into some charity-fund; they finance government waste and corruption.

>not rendering unto Caesar what is Caesar's
Retarded. You could just donate and write the shit off in lieu of paying them directly if you're that upset about it.

Similar to you OP I built a whole career and worked myself up to one of the top positions in my field. I had prestige in the industry, I was doing something meaningful. Then I made it on crypto. So I retired so I wouldn't have to commute and work the 9-5. I miss a lot of that life.

That said, FUCK waging lmao I am so glad I'm rich. Glad I got to know two lives, and respect the wagie life but overall no way in hell I'd go back.

>>56692970
I unfortunately don't care right now about the ideas that you're referring to unfortunately. I just know that I've suddenly been given money that would allow me to link all of my bills to a single account and literally do nothing for the rest of my life.

>>56692975
I guess it's just insane to me to be bruteforced into adapting to that kind of perspective

>>56692978
Yes I agree and have come to those conclusions as well it's just now what. And I guess there really is just no answer to it. I guess it just helped to talk about it and see that people could understand it

I have always been put off by gambling and have personally dealt with an alcohol problem which I've been sober from for 3 years since. I also know I have a gambling tendency through stupid video games. Once I decide to make this money situation a real thing in my life, the first thing will be going to an advisor. I don't know how it works, but I hope to go to a financial advisor and make a lifelong business relationship with them/someone to help manage all the money, and I plan on having my own independant massive source as well.

>>56693056
I have read a lot about all of these risks from before I acquired the money, to now. A lot of what I read is just a bunch of preventative decisions to maintain your wealth and to keep it growing. It's so much to the point that I don't give a shit to keep it growing. If it were like $1m and that was it, I would be doing these things, but the scale of it is just ridiculous to where I'm asking about what to do with life now

>>56693112
yea, most richfags that are semi-decent do and should give away a large portion.
here is a query for you....imagine you have 20m you are willing to give away. what would choose? what do you think would have the most positive impact?

>>56693112
My comment pertained to the claim that paying taxes is a form of charity, not to charity itself.

>>56692492
>>56692463
I hope the integration of it into my life is decently seamless, and I get to be as content as you seem

>>56693133
I'd give half of it to the animals. Shelters, fish and wildlife conservation programs, national parks, stuff like that. The other half I'd donate to some hospitals for stuff like baby formula or covering people's medical bills for childbirth for when they're un or underinsured. I think those two things would do the most immediate good for everyone around me and by extension myself. Other than that I'd just do a bunch of volunteer work when I wasn't doing dope shit with my family and being happy. Your life is on sandbox mode now so "The Game" is making your own fun.

>>56693169

The upside is that money offers freedom, the downside is that you no longer have you entertain yourself with pointless sidequests in a world in which we have all been told that there is no possible meaning to following the main quest or deciding to forge our own.
Sorry to hear about your uncle though.

>>56693215
>hospitals for stuff like baby formula or covering people's medical bills for childbirth for when they're un or underinsured
I'm with you. Ultimately I think some sort of way to help small children is most moral thing. They didnt ask to be born and are now suffering thru no fault of their own, so easing their suffering is good.
hard part is that there are tons of scheming fucks at all layers between your money and them, and each want to siphon it off and funnel into lambos.
>Shelters, fish and wildlife conservation
Also a good idea. Concern is that you are basically competing with gov at this point.

>>56691616
The toil is what makes man happy.
You think top CEOs don't realize they could fuck off forever off their wealth? They continue to work because productivity is enjoyable.

Perhaps you need to consider a hobby or vocation that allows you to explore and create something you find personally meaningful rather than take defeatist "work for the man" mindset

But if that isn't right then just working an ez wagie part time job at a coffee shop or brewery or some place you like, talking with locals and making friends might be all you need. You would do it to keep the mind and hands occupied and to make friends/be a part of your community which is an underrated part of working these types of jobs

>>56693265
You would benefit from reading the works of Seneca and Aurelius until you can read Nietzsche and laugh at the idea of ever being a cynic. Life is beautiful and if you can shitpost here at all you're already winning hard.

>>56691616
find Jesus, a good girl, wife her up, move to the prairie and have 7 children. It's literally all you have to do.

I mean if you can't be happy with the money why not spend some on helping others, maybe that will help you feel something positive? If there is no point to anything you might as well help someone who feels something.

op is an absolute pathetic faggot. i have so many ideas to create non/for-profits that would benefit society that i could actually create right away and spend my time on with that kind of money. fuck you op for being a uncreative depressed slob for having "too much money". i can't even process how it can be a problem. you uncreative fuck.

>>56691643
Then you know you fucking faggot? Give that money to me, i'd be desperate to get where you are, to have a chance to accomplish the things i desire for me and my loved ones.

Give that propriety to me you fucking ingrate nigger

>>56693290
Donate directly and as quietly as possible and you reduce the grifting immensely. Do your due diligence to make sure what you give goes towards helping and don't just take an organizations words for it ask questions and do some research on the matter first, but if you drop off baby formula and pet food by the pallet to hospitals or shelters it's hard to go wrong. Just ask what they need first. As for competing with the government, they would weep tears of joy if people gave so much money they had to reallocate resources elsewhere. You're not competing with them at that point you're they're friend. Paying your taxes actually does do a lot to help other people and I'm insane enough to pay my taxes, then donate to stuff I believe in, then fuck off and just go be happy with whatever is left because it'd be more than enough even still.

>>56693265
I'm not sure about your comment for losing respect for God, body, and race. I was a very solid individual in the ideal society perceived way. Great grade university student getting a tech degree. Former Reserve military member. I've hid this part of me for 7 months, and up until a few weeks ago did the things I've always done my obligations and been proud of it. From small shit like making my bed when I wake up, or cleaning a bathroom or my room, to studying for exams, or getting a job/internships. That's just how the world works for nearly everyone.

I kept it up for 7 months just because it feels easier than explaining to everyone about the resources I have access to now since my Uncle's gone. The idea's that your talking about 'actually choose what to do with my life', is what I am looking for advice on. I worked listlessly in life because that is the way life is for a vast majority of people and it was for me and now suddenly it's not, and it's an insane plateau to be dealing with because it's a plateau that there are very litte people for me to commiserate about with it.

Thank you about my uncle. This is from the /biz/ thread, but it's how his relationship fucked with me. When I was a kid he was a hero, then suddenly I saw him for what he was. For a long time I resented him for not taking care of himself and always causing my family grief. Near the end I openly told him I can't ever know you when he's fucked up like that, and I cried like I was a little kid. I really never understood adults uncontrollably crying, it's always been easy for me to maintain myself and not get upset in front of people. I don't know why. Even now just thinking about him is making me cry, when there was a point in time not even that long before he died that I thought if he was just dead, I wouldn't have to worry about him all the time.

I'm assuming you are a Texan? I've known quite a few people in this state who get this very 'problem'. Some self-destruct like your uncle. I own an oil and gas engineering company and am a vet myself, though my company doesn't bring in anything like the sort of money you are talking about. You need goals bro. It's ok to start small with no final goal in mind.

>>56693128
In line with not being a combative asshole, as which I indeed start out: let me not just leave you hanging, OP. While I won't tell you what to do with your money, you can at least isolate yourself from the day-to-day stress of having to manage it by setting up a trust-fund (consult a lawyer specializing in these things). You can set up how the money will be used, e.g. giving you some reasonable monthly sum, and investing the rest, or even donating a certain portion to some charity of your choice. That should help keep you grounded.

>>56693415
>drop off baby formula and pet food by the pallet to hospitals or shelters it's hard to go wrong.
scenario 1:
ebay.com: 5 cases baby formula. starting bid $0
scenario 2:
thanks for the free baby formula hospital, now i can buy drugs with the money i saved

it turns out charity is hard. ultimately tho your point about due diligence is right tho....

>>56693435
If not a higher power then at least a higher understanding and appreciation of life. I've had terrible times with religion and just read the bible by myself anymore rather than going to church but I was an athiest for a long time and without it I'd have never been tested to the point of realization and reconciliation with my faith and Christ.

Op, you have to create the point yourself. If you drag through life in an apathetic haze, you WILL end up exactly like your uncle.

Men must devote themselves to a higher aim and live each day with ambition. I'd encourage you to consider who you are and what you are. Think about your family, faith, and race. How can you leave these things in a better state than you found them?

People are going to abuse or misuse the help you give in some capacity no matter what you do and even the best run charities have to provision for salaries/logistics/rent/utilities/shit other than directly helping people. Realize that now, do the best you can to help as much as you can, do your research before you give, and do it anyway. If you gave a hospital enough money and formula to take care of a hundred babies would you really not have given it at all because one of their mums traded a can of formula for something else? Would it not still be worth providing that mum the opportunity to fail to realize what she did wrong to grow as a person, or the baby more than enough formula so it could still be healthy and strong despite her sin?

Seneca and Aurelius until you can laugh at Nietzsche. I also like Goggins for when it's really dark, and go fucking work out immediately and get some sunlight and eat some food and dammit man listen to Rockwell for once and lift up thine eyes! If not for God or yourself then because it's the right thing to do and it's what you deserve. Because I asked you too if all else fails. Because you came on 4chan expecting to get shit on and instead someone cared and because maybe someday when you see someone else that needed someone to care you could be there for them.

I know that that is a good thing for me to do, it’s just what do I do AFTER? ‘whatever you want!’ That’s the thing, i don’t know how to find that and i don’t know how to get to where i can discover it without also letting everyone else around me know i have the power to go on a journey that and the power to enable all of them to go on a journey like that too at a moments notice and the fun and joy of ‘gifting’ them that and doing altruistic things excites me but the dread and consequence of it all also terrifies me immensely

I found admiration in my dad and myself for doing things on our own through will and perserverance and now it feels like it was all for nothing.
nice cope for just saying youre a lazy faggot
just give me all your money you can go back to your nice former life, at least i wont cope on biz with depression for having so much money and actually use it well bc im not retarded

>>56693607
Being brave isn't the absence of fear. It's facing that fear with courage and doing the best you can. Allow yourself to fail and you will succeed beyond your wildest imagination. Also if you're actually worth a stupid amount of money you should have UHNWI tier legal counsel that could put you in touch with others that could help you navigate this successfully, including setting up blind trusts and shit like that so you're not just handing people enough money to die when they're totally unprepared.

>>56693128

it's really not that complicated: there are so many things in that world (and more importantly, near you) that need to be fixed. the hard part is to actually choose where to focus your energy when you create your own job. it just blows my mind that someone would not know what to do with too much money.

I didn't really give context but my dad is not a bad man by any means. He was disowned because the area that my dad's side of the family lived in was a big conservative area. My family took pride in serving in the military. My dad did not want that for himself and openly spoke against it and to save face in their shit city and with other relatives, his close family threw him under the bus.

>>56693638
I dont understand your judgement of lazy faggot. I did everything I was supposed to do and was fine doing those things because I HAD to do those things. I enlisted in the military to give myself skills to fall back on because I HAD to work because I needed money to pay bills, and I didn't complain about it. It was just what I needed to do. I was/am in university to get a 'meaningless' degree, because I understood it's what I would need to get job offers, and worked hard to stand out. I saved and bought a mediocre car because it was affordable, decent looking, and what fit for my budget. I drive a certain way because it can help optimize gas mileage and save money. I planned to be like that for my entire life, and based on my life so far I was just fine being like that up until this windfall. So I dont understand your comment. And how can you even define what using the money I'm getting 'well' even is

To me I can't see how it's complicated for you to understand the level of apathy you'd get if you just happened upon those kinds of resources. I don't know if maybe you don't have a big network of family around you, so maybe that's why it's alright, but for me a good lot of my immediate and somewhat close family are hardworking people. I don't know how to explain it, but I don't know how to navigate this without possibly changing them for the worse, or possibly revealing/creating some terrible side to other family members in my network. That's really the crux of the issue here. Not that 'oh there's so many support orgs that I wanna help out that I can't decide! Guess I'll hoard it all to myself!'

For most the wisest thing would be to give most of it to places that need it and keep enough left over to maintain a level of passive income that takes care of twice what their expenses are per annum after securing a position of "fuck you" in line with Goodman's monologue in The Gambler. That really doesn't take much money to pull off even now, 5-10 million means never ever having to work again unless you want to while enjoying a standard of living that would make kings and queens of less than a century ago jealous.

That's if someone is stubborn and refuses to get help managing all of this. The actual smartest thing to do would be get some real legal counsel directly which this link can help with https://chambers.com/legal-guide/high-net-worth-21 and they can take it from there for the most part.

>>56693766
Sorry about the miscommunication. There's a lot of replies I've made and I've been up all night. The shit that my uncle did in the past was referring to the way he threw his brother under the bus to side with the rest of the family, because he was also scared of being ostracized himself. I thought you were wondering why my dad was disowned in the first place.
>because I HAD to do
Yes, that's the way the world works for people. You need to have/make money. I did things to try and optimize that in the best way possible and make the best of my situation up until the windfall and it took a lot. Why would I WANT to keep doing the shitty things that I never wanted to in the first place, but were forced upon me by the way the world is structured?

>>56693791

ultimately you need to out yourself to friends and family to some degree.
but you probably should keep your cards close to your chest and be vague on how much you're really getting.
once it gets out that you helped pay off Person A's mortgage, expect more queries....Humans are weird and in 2 years you can go from "thank you for this tremendous gift" to "i cant believe that you ONLY paid off my crummy 150k mortgage with all that money you have"

>>56693763
i think you can still help them without turning their life upside down. first i would recommend lying so they never know the true extent of your wealth. maybe you can create your own job/business that is a front and use it as an excuse to why you can help them here and there financially. "i'm finally earning some money with that thing and i can help people around me a bit". if you want to invite the whole family for some cool vacation, dont tell them you're paying for everything. just invent some story that you befriended some rich guy who let you use his amazing big house for 2 weeks and you're so excited about it and you want to share this opportunity with the whole family. make it sound like it's not you who is paying for all that. maybe that's the best way to navigate that stuff.

>>56693819
>Yes, that's the way the world works for people. You need to have/make money
yes and? it still shows your true colors when as soon as you dont have to put in the minimum effort you completely stop

>>56693903
im not even saying go do the same things you did before like doing a wagie job degree shit or whatever, but simply doing some kind of work even if its something totally different now instead of being 'depressed' on the fuckin internet for literally no reason
you should be euphoric if anything you have all the opportunities to 'work' and do stuff in whatever way you want, i wish i had these opportunities, meanwhile i have to do these little useless quests like gettin a degree and wagecuck and im not even lucky in it
i wish i had your opportunities i would never be depressed about this. i sure as hell would quit my job too but i would def do something else, i see it as a fun activity to allocate and use the money and to figure out were to help family or whomever, im smart, these kind of analytic work never bothered me, it bothers me way more to make a useless wage stem degree and get paid lowly with shitty wagejob when some roastie gets paid more than me

>>56693763
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. How you handle this, what boundaries you lay down, what goals you set, and how strong your conviction is is what determines whether wealth breaks or makes you or those around you. There is no way around this, shit will change, people will change, you will change, and it will not always be for the better. It will take immense effort and even pain to get back to better. And honestly on some level the people being assholes saying they don't know how the fuck you don't know what to do aren't just being assholes, they've been poor and literally dream of having this kind of opportunity. They're trying to light a fire under your ass so you hop out of this pot you're boiling in before it's too late.

The obligations that served as the foundation/cornerstone of my life are now gone because of what's happened. Are you telling me that I should continue working away, out of some imaginary requirement to not be lazy, even when there's literally no need for it? Do you really understand my perspective? I understand where your coming from, it is incredible to have the opportunities and resources to learn whatever you want, or start a business in some field because you have the drive to do that. WHY do you have that drive? Do you believe that the common person has that same drive in you to just keep going going going? I sure as shit don't, and I imagine a whole shitload of people on here and in the world would be mindlessly spending spending spending, doing absolutely fuckall with what they're getting. So far I have significant decreased the financial stress for my dad, and given gifts to my brothers, step-mom, and girlfriend, and bought a new computer chair. So for you to keep going with this 'lazy fuck' notion is ridiculous to me. If anything I'm an unguided fuck.

How can I be lazy when there's nothing I NEED to be doing? How can there BE a need anymore, and if there exists some need, what is it, and how do I even find it? How can I find it, without letting my family know that I have the power/resources to go on the journey and also allow them to have their own individual journey's? Again do you really understand me?

see how fucking selfish you are? w-w-wut do I NEED. you may not need anything, but tons of other people/animals/plants need your money. just go fix the world and let it become your main job, besides a happy family.
> without letting my family know that I have the power/resources
step 1: create a front, an explanation other than inheritance for that wealth. incoporate a business somewhere and use it as an excuse to help them. do not let anybody think you have unlimited resources to help them, it would just depend on how well your business is doing. that way they will be grateful for your help but will also know this can stop anytime because it all depends on how well your business is doing (versus: it just depends if you want to give them money or not).

>>56694062
>WHY do you have that drive
correct it was my point to the other anon....every action anyone takes is balanced on a 'return for effort' calculation.
given enough passive income, it becomes a corrosive effect that eats the will, since that calculation always sides with "financially smartest move is to do nothing".

what other anons are saying tho is true: You cant let that take hold because humans have a hard time living without feeling they are productive and engaged in purposeful activity.

>>56694134
Eh I'm not as rich as you probably but after I started making enough to provide for my family forever I realized that I'm far beyond calculating EV for my actions, I just do things because I like doing them. I drive around on my motorcycle, travel with my wife and still work my day job because it's interesting to me. Maybe I'm just lucky that u genuinely liked what I did before I even got rich lol
One thing I can recommend to op is literally just stop doing everything, like full on no phone internet music sugar etc. After staring at the wall for a couple hours and thinking random ideas will pop into your head and you can decide to invest in them, if it doesn't pan out back to step 1. You probably just need to recalibrate a life direction and you'll be fine honestly. Some things will change in your life and some won't but it's up to you to get positive results

You're right to not want to reveal your wealth to those closest to you. There's basically no upside to that and tons of downside.

As others have said, you don't have to figure out your entire future right now. The sudden freedom from a huge windfall like this feels like a ton of pressure to jump straight into the best path, the path you always dreamed of taking if money was no object. But that isn't how life works. Take a deep breath and trust that you'll figure this out each step of the way, and it will be good.

The first thing you need to do is make your wealth sustainable. What would you do if cheap scalable cold fusion were invented tomorrow, and your monthly income from this land dropped to zero by 2025? Set a reasonable budget for your lifestyle, and put the rest into a diversified portfolio that will grow and sustain you indefinitely. Get a fiduciary for this (if you don't know, fiduciaries are legally obligated to work in your best interest, versus investment/wealth managers who will siphon off your money). Or read into some basic wealth management on your own.

If you've lost interest in school, it's probably best to leave for now. You can always go back later.

My honest advice: find a way to give back. You sound like a good person who has been granted an incredible opportunity. That's a rare combination. Most people who receive windfalls like this end up miserable. Look up the statistics for lotto jackpot winners. Part of it is the alienation of loved ones if they know about your wealth, and the other part is the empty hedonism. Pursuing pleasure with money will hollow you out. Not having anything meaningful to work for will make you depressed. True happiness comes from doing meaningful work, and one of the most meaningful things you can do, in my experience, is helping those in need. Volunteer somewhere, and tell your family it's your job. It will open your eyes and you'll get ideas about what you want to do next.

>The obligations that served as the foundation/cornerstone of my life are now gone because of what's happened
thats a bullshit excuse to be a lazy faggot like you want to be. if you actually think this is a problem you can give me your money/land i will do it for you and you can go back to your 'foundation/cornerstone' and be le 'happy'

>>56694132
>tons of other people/animals/plants need your money
If you had the money to where you could choose that to be your job, don't you think it would eat you alive to think that there is always more you could and should be doing with it? Would you you come to realize that that goal is impossible? Would you come to the conclusion that your altruistic and good-natured efforts are ultimately meaningless? I WILL be doing those good-natured things because I agree that it is the right thing for me to do, eventually I'm going to have to open up to my family about how the hell I'm paying for things, and once they're aware, I'll feel more free to do those gestures, and I have been anonymously because I am aware they are good and the right thing to do. But doing those kinds of gestures and making those kinds of efforts I don't believe fulfill me in the way a person who has a regular life might feel fulfilled either artificially or organically by the time they die. I mean in the way of grinding through college, grinding for a career, developing yourself, meeting people. I can't use copium to convince myself that any of it really means anything. So why is it that the fulfillment of my life is gone, and now that I HAVE the power to fulfill others lives, that must be my sole purpose and I'm a piece of shit for not feeling fulfilled by doing those things. If I were reading someone say this shit a year ago, I'd also probably be shitting on them as well.

Yeah the only way passive income works and doesn't drive someone insane is if they have something to put it into and realize the value of non-material and non-monetary pursuits. There are people that found a way to smile in foxholes covered in mud and gore and there are people that aren't happy sitting in the AC with all their needs and wants covered ten thousand times over and the one thing both those people have in common is that how they feel and what their perspective and mindset on life is and their attitude towards it was entirely their own decision and nobody else's. It's the main reason I recommended studying the stoics because a literal Roman emperor and arguably one of the greatest men that's ever lived wrote a shitload about his own experience running the whole fucking world and how he maintained happiness and inner peace through that journey. Fuck me go read some Diogenes and Epictetus while you're at it OP and I'm sorry about getting pissed about it but you've been given a ton of great advice and even the dickheads are rooting for you in their own way.

Sad many such cases

>>56694253
You just answered your own question and you don't realize it. Help yourself before or while helping others. Do you think the rich volunteer to help with things because they want to be seen doing it, or because that raw gnawing feeling in their heart of stagnation and death and meaninglessness drives them to find a new struggle? Some of the wealthiest people I've ever known worked like slaves to better themselves and the people and world around them not for money or fame or recognition but to prove to themselves that they could. Why do you think Zuckerberg, for all his flaws, is legitimately pretty great at a martial art? Why do you think Rogan still does his podcast even though he's got more than enough to never work again? Why do you think Elon bought Twitter and went balls deep in the hornets nest?

Read the works of great men before you, struggle mightily to improve yourself and your mind and body and the world around you. Be fucking happy! It is literally a choice.

Also - find a therapist, one who does life coaching. Talk to a few until you find the right fit. From your replies in this thread it's clear that you have a lot thoughts and feelings around this swirling around in your head, and you haven't been able to talk to anyone about it. /biz/ is not a substitute. You will gain clarity by talking through these things, and not only will a good therapist/coach give valuable feedback, they can also help you to actualize your goals once you've figured out what they should be.

Thanks. I've never had any interest in school because it's always felt like I've forced my way into an analytical, math-heavy, science-heavy way of thinking, because I was always told that was the key to getting a good career. I've never had a true interest in school, and ever since receiving the wealth, it really just exposed how much I was bruteforcing my way through it.
Thank you for your nice words too. I've always had issues connecting with people, and this is a problem where I truly cannot find a single person who really understands it. And even while typing it I feel like an idiot for even complaining because I get where everyone comes from who calls me an idiot.

>>56694251
>>56694251
You said I should feel euphoric to be enabled to explore whatever field I feel I want to. I don't feel euphoria. I feel dread at the implications of what it does for me and family, and may uncover/reveal ugly sides to them, and every person I've ever known or will ever meet. I'm not saying I'm not going to donate/use my money/time for honorable, good causes. I do that and have done that even before the wealth came simply because it was the right thing to do, but just because it was the right thing to do never meant I really felt any joy from it. Yes, I've made people happy and I do enjoy being able to say that I've made and will continue to do that with the rest of my life, but that doesn't bring me any true happiness, so that is why I am confused to hear you call that selfish, and confused to be called 'lazy'. Kids go through school, make choices, and end up adults working jobs they hate, or grow to tolerate/cope with it. That's reality for a good chunk of my family, the world, and before this I had been ok with that being mine, because I found joy in simple things. Now it is incredibly different for me, and all I am looking for is how to figure it out.

and? like others said you dont even have to tell them if you suspect they are like this, and if they truly change for the worse you dont have to spend a dime on them either, its literally not a problem
if they have issues they or you gotta deal with it anyway. if they only kept their issues in check bc they were poor it was literally only hidden away anyways.
> to do never meant I really felt any joy from it.
1. its not just about you man, sometimes these things are for others
2. its prolly bc you werent invested in it
you are now free to choose your own work, its amazing and much more uplifting than being a wagecuck
hire me i will do it for you for 70k/a year and be your personal older brother as it seems you are young and you feel overwhelmed
if you think i suck fire me any time
obv im in it bc i see an opportunity to get away from being a wagecuck, and you probably wont consider which is normal, but if you consider hiring some jew i might aswell apply

>>56694414
you dont need schools to learn there are enough online courses out there or experts you can pay to explain you things in whatever domain you're interested in. you dont need to force yourself learning things you dont want to learn.

I like the perspective you offered. Although I do look at it being probably the way rich people delude themselves. It's just strange that I really believed not having money problems meant everything becomes easier.

>>56694458
>like others said you dont even have to tell them if you suspect they are like this
My dad has always had such massive dreams/ambitions that he wanted to accomplish, but never could due to having me at a young age with no support system. He gave up so much for me just to have been in university before. I want to just go to him now and tell him to prepare to sell the family house that is the most tangible milestone showing his hardwork, because I can buy him his dream house, filled with furniture, cars, and still have enough for myself, him to be splurging for the rest of our lives. (Just to note, I won't ever go that extreme, and have already saved away a enormous portion)

I just don't know how to do that without changing everything. I didn't care that I didn't care about my major, or my future jobs because I knew it was just an ends to the means. It was just the work I needed to do to enable me to spend time with my family/gf/friends, go to the gym, play guitar, play video games, whatever and all of that was cool and it brought me closer to people, led to me meeting people etc. I was ok being in that game because it felt fun and rewarding, and now it's like someone's given me god mode, spoiled the story, given me the strongest equipment, and the big boss at the end had a heart attack and died.

>>56694414
You can still be a simple man even if you have money. Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote a song about it that I listen to when I'm losing myself. Just have courage when you face your fears and be true to yourself in all dealings big or small, and never forget your soul is in your keeping and your keeping alone. I'm also seconding the therapist recommendation and would personally recommend cognitive behavioral therapy as it helped me a lot when I was younger and it worked because I was the one doing the work and making the decisions. The most important part of this entire thread is that you recognize you need assistance and asked for it and that's the first step towards doing better in anything in life, no man is an island.

>>56694503
I don't see how it's pathetic to be afraid about the fact that my life and the way people will treat me is now changed forever. I believe most rational people would feel exactly this. I agree that it's caused anhedonia/depression to come out of me in a way I never thought imaginable though. But it really is less of a 'gee this sucks' and more of just a neutral state of existing, and nothingness. Just doing the things I do, just because I still don't know how to open to my family about it all. Healthy things like going to the gym, taking the time to clean shit and doing things I really have no point in doing anyway like attending my classes, though I stopped a few weeks ago.

Anyway that was a lot of blabbing, but yeah I guess a therapist would be good.

>>56694566
>My dad has always had such massive dreams/ambitions that he wanted to accomplish, but never could due to having me at a young age with no support system. He gave up so much for me just to have been in university before.
is that what he told you? thats just an excuse it was his choice. its what idiotic fathers tell their kids to get them down, my father was also an asshole even worse probably. they are just jealous, do you think musk has no children etc?

>now it's like someone's given me god mode, spoiled the story
youre retarded man you dont see the bigger picture

hire me as a therapist before hiring some retarded woman or psychologist tm retard
i am good in analysing people and very good logically, stop wasting money for faggots in the system

its just a mindset shift
stop feeling depressed and get that you are literally free now, its literally that simple. stop seeing it as a burden and embraise it as a great opportunity to do whatever you want now

You're worrying too much. Just plan out the extravagant vacation, and then tell them all you got lucky on an investment so you want to take everyone on vacation with the money.

if your family truly loves you they wont abuse your kindess, they wont try to ask more and more money being unreasonable, they will just be grateful for what you offer them. but maybe you're not sure if they really love you. maybe your parents will divorce if they both get enough money and things will change but it can change for the better too. would you accept seeing your mom and dad separate and date someone else if that makes them happier?

>>56694578
Thanks anon

>>56694641
>is that what he told you? thats just an excuse it was his choice.
Dude no. He's never had to tell me because I can clearly see it. I know he's done those things because I'm literally his son LOL. I'm sorry about your dad, but my dad was a wagie, and even now still has a wagie mindset of working hard, so that you can provide or have money to retire and THEN really enjoy life. We've even openly discussed how bad his job was and how he'd have to be work a long time until he could retire. He knows he could've done more with himself had he had the opportunity but how can you do those things when REAL life is happening and there's bills and a kid to feed and your hungry and your family is hungry and you need to get a job? What the hell else was he supposed to do? Even when he had his insane workload/schedule, he'd always been proud of my academic achievements, would have his own personal home projects to find meaning in, and is a hardworking good person.

If there is really some 'big picture' to grasp, even when you have access to the resources I have access to now, then you're the retard for thinking that it would be a fast process for someone going from a wagie perspective to now instantly be thrusted into shifting to a rich perspective. It is way more nuanced than a lot of people are making it out be

Bio-mom's gone, so it's really just my dad that I care about, along with some uncles/cousins/step-siblings/step-mom.

To be honest with you, I have fantastic relationships with all of them, but there's only some people that I REALLY want to share it with, and that's my dad, my uncles, and my gf. Of course I want to give something to all of my good relatives, but it's these core members that I have complete full faith in based off of how they've treated me all my life and how I've seen them act towards others. However I don't know if they would come to the same feelings of dread and burden about it all like I have. That's the ramifications that scare me of it all.

>>56694757
>>56694772
>other people make it despite all of this. work smart not harder
And a whole shit load, probably the majority of people don't. That doesn't mean they are pathetic or weak, if you're suggesting that's what wagies are. They fight in their own way, and that in itself is admirable and deserving of reward. And I want to give that to him and more people. I just don't get how you can't see how me doing that for people will illicit massive changes in my life. And if that's the case where you don't see my perspective, even now, then there's no point for you to keep replying because we aren't and seemingly can't be on the same page, and it's clear that if you're suggesting there's some 'big picture' about it all, I can't see it yet and I'll just have to figure it out myself.

>>56694839
>I just don't get how you can't see how me doing that for people will illicit massive changes in my life
i never said it wouldnt, but why are you afraight of change? embrace change, and stop coping

nah that's just you being a super npc faggot and afraid of living your life maybe.

>>56694861
The fear of the change comes from the objective fact, that the nature of the change I'm going through almost ALWAYS has negative consequences.
>every change in life is like that
Yes, but this is something that is potentially relationship-ending, and also something that I will consciously have to choose to do. That is why it is difficult to figure out how to execute it.

>>56694889
Yep I know it sounds ridiculous but I am feel rational about it. I was redpilled in highschool and thought it was the answer to life, the guide to be a man, but saw that a majority of 'redpilled' men are deluded with insane takes I've spewed over and over from other 'redpilled/alpha' men. I am not going ludcriously overboard with what I help her with. She is an incredibly hardworking person, and comes from a family with incredible values and her nature has been what I appreciated and valued from her more than anything else. I am aware that she could still at any minute start turn into a golddigging whore once she finds out. But throughout our four year relationship, we've had incredibly real, lucid and intimate talks about the nature of life, and have been through quite a lot together. She still feels she needs to be working, and wants to get a Master's. I guess trusting her is the risk I'll have to take. I'll be ok

>>56694914
Think of a flyover state, then think of the shittiest most boring flat city in whatever flyover state you're thinking of. The land I inherited is near a city like that. I first drove when I was 12 in that area, because it's just a straight, two-way road with nothing but gas stations in between, and then incredibly small cities. The area is filled with people coming from tight-knit generations of families, that have known nothing but drug/alcohol abuse from the boring nature of their lives, and the only ones that ever make something of themselves are either involved in the corrupt tribal council or have left the state to move somewhere else like Texas.

>>56692442
>The business thing is the only one that is ok. I could fuck up over and over again. I guess it would be nice to make some sort of affordable shop ran by dedicated wellpaid people for some niche hobby

The point of the business idea is to keep (You) busy. Your uncle had no purpose in life and so he wallowed in despair. If you're building and running a business, don't go with the idea that you'll set it up and let the money flow and walk away.

Also focus on thinking of a business as a system that generates revenue. Find something you're interested (and start small) and figure out a system that profits off of it. Ideally it should be providing some kind of value to your community.

>>56695078
>that the nature of the change I'm going through almost ALWAYS has negative consequences.
dude that is stupid, you are richer, it can only result in the change being postive, stop coping and embrace the new change.. realise you have no problems you were granted massive opportunities and not problems its literally just a mindset change
>Yes, but this is something that is potentially relationship-ending
if some of your people are so stupid and greedy and envious that they seethe so hard and leave you then its their fault realise this and let them go, it doesnt even mean forever, they often times come back on their own, theres no need to make a fuss about shit like this that doent even neccesarily happen, it only happens when they are retards and then its their own fault and you should avoid toxic people like that anyways

>That is why it is difficult to figure out how to execute it.
sure its confusing, but its way cooler and greater 'work' than being a massive wagecuck
again its literally just a mindset change from 'this is a problem' to 'this is a massive opportunity'

This is why I feel you and other people do not get it. I can't just all of sudden tell my core family I'm buying them incredible houses in great areas, and I'm gonna take them around the world, and their bills are fine for the rest of their lives all of a sudden. Yes I CAN financially do it, but then the distant family members start to notice. It's great I helped out Uncle John, the one who's always lived near me and I've always been able to help out with, but what about Aunt Jane in California? She had breast cancer? And now if I'm not helping them, then my other relatives will be the ones possibly hounded and their lives change and now they will experience what I have been feeling. And I don't know if they can/will navigate it in a healthy optimal way, so that their life as a whole is good.

Because there is a a part of me that does care about the fanciful idea of charity and donating to good causes, and I have while I was a wagie and want to do more, but ultimately at the end of the day it's my family that's important, and I'm not going to do the other charitable stuff until I'm able to figure out the family part. And the reason I'm trying to figure out the family part, is because I want to start exploring with these resources I have access to now and the best way I can. I just have to figure the family part out first.

>>56695079
I understand that and I don't even want to do something like that
>opening a shop up and letting it run in the background of my life expecting money to come
Another part of it is that I've never had the agency to make decisions like that, and I need to figure out how to navigate this newfound agency while figuring out the shit I wrote above

they're not supposed to know exactly how much you have faggot. and if you have money, just help her too. if you dont have enough money just tell her that too.

it's possible that OP is just a demoralization troll: "hey guys i'm young and i suddenly have tons of money but omg idk what to do i feel so unhappy and dull blablabla"

>>56695156
Honestly, I feel you should either look for part time jobs at school or take time off from school and look for jobs if you don't have something you're genuinely interested in learning at college.

I don't have life changing money in my bank account, but I do sympathize a bit as I lost a lot of motivation due to investing in crypto and I know I'm set for life. However, what keeps me going now is that I have a genuine passion in learning the development side of what I invested in and want to build a company that uses the technology of smart contracts. It took me a decade out of college and fumbling through jobs (and getting lucky with a family friend scoring me the job that gave me a big enough salary (<$30K take home on my highest year) to invest in crypto.

You need exposure to find some kind of purpose. I really don't think you should spend any more money than you need to else you'll fall into the same trap as your uncle of acquiring things you don't believe you deserve.

>>56695130
>youre free
>Go bang hot russian supermodels and drive fast cars

Have you never questioned your understanding of what it means to be free? Do you think what you define as freedom is true for all people? Driving fast cars does sound fun, but banging hot russian supermodels sounds so hollow. The older I get the more I realize that at the end of it all, what really matters most, at least to me and to a lot of people, is the relationships and connections you have and share. When you have good relationships with people, it makes all the other bullshit that life forces you to deal with (bills, making money, getting a good job) worth it. All of that bullshit is gone now, and I can help my other members get rid of that bullshit too, but that bullshit, while still bullshit, is literally the basis of their reality. Some gave their soul away to make it through tradeschool or college. Some had kids young like morons, so they had to make ends meet with shitty jobs all their lives, and some have been stuck in shit jobs, and some have grinded and rised a bit above.

Either way they all are good people that deserve this break I can give them, and I have absolute confidence in some of them, but I just don't know how they'll handle it. If I just pop up and yoink away their problems from them by giving them money/nice homes, then what? Will they ask for more eventually? Will their own friends and network of people start asking them for help? Will they all indirectly be burdened with the same burden I feel now? That's why I am stagnant right now. I don't want fuck them all by mistake.

>>56695242
>>56695156

And I mention looking for jobs at school because it waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay easier to find jobs when you're within a system and can speak to people directly as opposed to trying to apply from outside. In addition, you could also volunteer until an opening pops up.

For instance, I've been applying for a couple years and got nothing but rejection letters. I did go to a conference and got job opportunities but fumbled on them due to insecurities. But when I went back to my old alma mata, just within a few hours of talking to old professors, I got a contract to work on some mobile app and we're expecting a budget of $10K to work with my buddies. And I'm also planning to teach a workshop on blockchain tech.

So it suffice to say to nestle yourself in a system that provides you with a network of people to work with.

>>56695277

There is no proof I can give that will satisfy people and I really don't care to go through the effort. You are just words on a screen to me, and I am just words on a screen to you. So it's meaningless to me to prove anything to you, and most people wouldn't believe it anyway, so you might as well suspend your disbelief and go along with it. Either way, to what you said, the thing is is that maybe I want to give those great gifts to Uncle John and have him experience fun things, but if he's close to Aunt Jane in California, what is he going to say now? When Aunt Jane calls Uncle John to commiserate about work, what is he supposed to do when he can say 'i'm absolutely fine and i have access to everything i need!' I know that I myself could navigate it, but I don't know about them, and that is what I don't think people are understanding about my perspective

>>56695308
True but honestly if that's the case that I'm an NPC, and I've come to these conclusions through 7 months of NPC internalization, and you're calling my thoughts NPC thoughts, then you can see why I'd be projecting them onto other NPCs right? since it's logical that other NPCs (my family) would have these thoughts too?

>>56695352
>what is he going to say now?
how about you stop being afraid of what people think of you, or might eventually think of you if eventually that thing happens? how about you stop being an npc? go help them build their dream life while you're doing the same and stop being a faggot

>>56691616
Anon, work out every day and stay away from liquor and other addictive substances.

Enjoy life to the fullest with realistic views of moderation. Improve your body and mind. Hide your money in general.

Go back to school and learn whatever suits your passion. Attend some "soft" courses reserved for teacher or nurses or women in general and either enjoy your youth by banging away at em all, or find an innocent one and marry her and dont share a hint of your money until you have kids together.

Live in a shitty apartment or house in a beautiful location and once she has your kids, upgrade to a house on the lake or on the ocean in a white neighborhood.

Ive managed to do as much on 0 money and i honestly think it would have been the best course even if I was wealthy.

Good luck anon. Live well. And re evaluate if you find yourself over indulging. Continue to cultivate your willpower as a primary effort.

>>56695277
>and I have absolute confidence in some of them, but I just don't know how they'll handle i
youre fucking retarded
> If I just pop up and yoink away their problems from them by giving them money/nice homes, then what? Will they ask for more eventually? Will their own friends and network of people start asking them for help?
yes if they are poor egoistic faggots with no agency

you are in no way in debt to buy everyone a mansion just bc you can. its also egoistic to jsut want to only help your own family
you are just a faggot you dont want to help

>>56695352
>>56695226
Also I don't think that this should be demoralizing. I didn't earn this money. Even if you guys hit it big off of some dumb crypto, at least in a way you earned it. I just won some dumb lottery like a retard, and am now trying to navigate the reality of it.

You guys might have a different perspective and not give a shit about the things I give a shit about and be totally cool just getting yourself right, living life, and that's awesome if you're like that. I'm just not like that. I feel moments of fun and overall a looming sense of nothing

>>56695394
>stop being afraid of what people think of you
I don't care what people think of me. It's what people (other family members will think of them (close family members the ones I care about), and how they are going to react with that. I don't know if THEY will be able to handle it rationally and I don't know if I would be alright being the indirect cause of a death, or a relationship strain because of this money. It isn't about me or my mental fortitude to handle it. It's about how my family will when they're inevitably faced with it. Before my uncle died, my dad sunk money into him KNOWING it was a sunk cost fallacy. A lot of my family are like that. They are good natured people, but in a way, they are retards because they are like that. That is what I am afraid of.

>>56695485
>I don't know if THEY will be able to handle it rationally and I don't know if I would be alright being the indirect cause of a death, or a relationship strain because of this money
i already answered this you dumb faggot
if anyone reacts bad to you being rich and even wanting to gift them money, they are the problem, they are toxic and just let them go away if they want to seethe, theres no need to keep toxic niggers around no matter if they are your 'family'. and even said this is just a fantasy in your head, maybe nobody reacts badly and even if ofte times they still come around
its literally a made up problem in your head

>t's about how my family will when they're inevitably faced with it.
this is what you say lmao:
>how will my family handle that im rich asf oohhhh my poor family how am i gonnna say this terrible message to them :(((
god damn what a faggot you are

>>56695450
>its also egoistic to jsut want to only help your own family

Why is that a bad thing? I'm not going to only help my own family, like I've said over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. I already HAVE begun to help others, I've done random acts like pay people's groceries, donated to dumbass indie game development projects, etc. I want to be able to freely and openly do those things more, and connect with people like that, but I can't openly be like that until I get my family right first, because getting my family right is literally what the dream of what most people want to do. I can't help others before I help them, and helping them isn't that simple as you are making it out to be.

>>56695521
>if anyone reacts bad to you being rich and even wanting to gift them money, they are the problem, they are toxic and just let them go away if they want to seethe, theres no need to keep toxic niggers around no matter if they are your 'family'. and even said this is just a fantasy in your head, maybe nobody reacts badly and even if ofte times they still come around
I KNOW. The family that I have faith in however, are NOT like that. Do you get that? You are the retard that cannot understand that my retard family is important to me, and obviously having money is a great thing, but you are retarded to not understand that suddenly having a ludicrous amount of money pop up does not come with terrible downsides, and that I am trying to make it so that they transition their lives from wagie NPCs to comfortable ones as optimally as possible. You can't understand that no matter what, and I don't know why. I don't care if you're going to keep yapping about 'just cut the people like that off!' because it really isn't as naively black and white as you're making it out to be. It's easy for ME to do that to someone like Aunt Jane, but not Uncle John. And I care about Uncle John regardless if I don't care for Aunt Jane. And u don't get it.

>>56695485
>They are good natured people
then having more money will just reveal that. you're just stuck in a loop of thoughts about what might eventually happen instead of just go enjoy life. you want to be in control of everything and omg what might uncle johnny think of great uncle kevin if he ends up with more money omg... you can't be in control of everything. if shit happens shit happens, they're good people you/they'll figure it out. they also dont have to know your true wealth, just be vague about it.

This is the stupidest LARP I've seen on biz in a long time

>>56695905
I don’t know if you get it. I’m not worried about the close family that I want to help and have faith that they aren’t going to exploit me. But when I do help them, they aren’t going to be able to just lie to our other family, or their friends/network that I don’t know about, about how they’re all of a sudden taken care of for the rest of their lives. I know I am overthinking things, but it’s true that time and time again people come upon a lot of money and people change and it can ruin you. I know people are going to try to take advantage of them, and even though I might be an overthinking faggot, I think it’d be arrogant to just dive into it like I KNOW so many other windfall people have done and ruined their lives with by doing.

I have been wrecking streamers in fall guys for a while now and have recently found cheats which make it even funnier. Just find something you want to do and people you want to associate yourself with, spite and envy are real so I would be careful on who you tell because 99% of people are working a shit job they hate to not be seen as a loser or because they have such an inflamed case of CONSOOMerism.

You got them good, anon. You really rattled them, haha.
Good for you though, enjoy the money

>>56696187
yes, well....my previous work dealt with prenups for clients and well girls basically view prenups as "you're already planning to divorce me" plan. there is no easy way to have the conversation.
HOWEVER definitely talk to a lawyer because there can be ways to structure it so she legally never has access to the bulk of the money.
For example you put it all in a trust with you as beneficiary prior to marriage so it doesn't become community property post marriage.....however the CP things is fucking mess and many locales have very broad laws where if you were bf/gf for so many years your assets are already co-mingled, so in theory she could already have a claim!

Having said all that my recommendation for strategy on how to approach the subject is to frame this as "family money"....."money my uncle intended for me and the family"....that is make it clear you want to allow her access to some of it via prenup but the reason why you are even talking about a prenup is because its really all for your family that existed way before you and her met.....this will soften the blow and hopefully put her in a state to not get triggered.

Take some time to think about what it is you really want in life. If you’re mentally stable I’d recommend taking some shrooms.

>>56691616
get a hobby, faggot

>>56697444
See >>56692547 as to how. Me and my dad's only connection to his side of my dad's family has always been through my uncle.

I've also said that it doesn't matter if you believe if it's true or not. If I proved it by showing statements, people will say it's fake, people will believe it and give advice, and a lot of people will ask for handouts and dillute the advice I'm looking for. If I prove it further by going through incredible lengths to prove my wealth is unquestionably true, it won't matter, because ultimately people won't believe it, will ask for hand outs etc. etc. So it doesn't matter to me if you believe it. If you believe I'm larping, then to you, I should be an insane loser, and everyone ITT is wasting their time, and you should spend your time doing something that feels productive to you. Unless this thread somehow entertains you for the moment.

>>56696271
That actually is a much better way for me to frame it. It’s just I’ve been through the cynical ‘I’m all alone no one gets me’ shit, and grew out of it when I was 25 and felt like I was really making connections with regular people, and this just makes it feel like I need to hide within myself again. I know it’s dumb pussy shit, and it’s ridiculous but it really has been keeping going back and forth and I know I need to do something about it soon before I lose the awareness and get fucked like my uncle or worse

>>56697725

>>56691616
Assuming this is real. It's time to really do what you want to do in life. Find financial advice and help with money management that's professional and well respected. If you adopt consumptive patterns, you'll just want to blow your money on dumb shit, vanity items, etc.; make sure that at least the better part of your money is managed and that you reduce your tax burdens.

From there, just think on what you can make freed of the commitments to a salaried job that way your hours. What interests you? Painting? Music? Literature? You can now pursue those things without the stresses of fucking up stopping you from doing those things. You could also start a small business and turn your skills or hobbies into a real profession, and even if it doesn't work out, you have float to work with instead of freaking out about things.

Live dude, think on your childhood and the things you made that you were proud of. Go and make something of that.

>>56697795
OP your real issue here is lack of purpose now that you have all this money right?

I can't tell what you should do but I can tell you I'd kill to be in your situation and what I'd do, and maybe that'll give you some ideas.

First off I'd travel, the world is big and varied, I'd want to see new places, discover various cultures, eat different foods, etc. This is an easy thing I'd look at like going on a ride with potential to be eye opening as your world view is bound to change at least a bit. No need to do one massive trip in a go, you can spread it out too.

Then I'd focus on what I love. What do you like spending your time doing? What is something that gets you excited, would make you get up early easily because you can't wait to experience / do / something?

For me personally I love storytelling, games, movies, anime, etc.

I have been learning game dev on the side but it's extremely difficult and time consuming so if I was in the your position I could dedicate myself fully to it and employ people to help me.

There has to be something you care about in life, something that gets you excited. Tech, nature, animals, food, entertainment, music...?

Once you find something (or a few things), really drill down and try to understand what exactly you like about them. If you like video games, what kind do you like? Story focused? Multiplayer? Why? Find the pattern, the common things that appear. Drill down until you get to a point you'll figure out the core of what you like, and that will give you direction to explore activities that should lead you on the right path.

You are free to pursue anything, you can just freely explore and "follow your bliss". Truly blessed to be in such position while still being young. Good luck

>>56691627
Solid financial advice right here. Also OP you should turn to Christ and seek Salvation. This money is a double edged sword. It destroyed your uncle, it could destroy you. But it could also be put to good use helping people or putting you in a position to help people.

>>56698197
I would say the lack of purpose is half, and the other half is figuring out how to 'free' the family I care about without fundamentally changing them, or exposing bad parts of them etc.

The longer I think on about it, it really is the idea that, even though I could do everything right in terms of setting them up/supporting them, ultimately they could become as fucked as my uncle was, and I've gone back and forth for months on the logistics of what it means to tell my core family that suddenly I can pay for their shit now and they can do and buy the cool shit they normally spend months planning on.

Because ideally THEY end up as regular well-adapted people, responsible with the wealth, seeing it as a gift etc. I still don't know what to do myself at the end of it. They still have a purpose past the wealth. Is my purpose in it just facilitating other people happiness? It makes me feel good in the moment to do those kind of things, but at the end of the day when I'm in bed, all I think about is how stupid it all is. Stupid in the sense that I'm only in this position because a drug addict died and gave me land. And it's just weird/hard to accept that sometimes that really is just how it is

Fuck u op! Whining bitch
Dont tell your family r anyone u will never have peace
Or just
Send me money n deeds
squareshapegamer@gmail.com

>>56698197
I forgot to mention that I agree with you about what you said about finding that purpose. I have researched into some of the things I was into as a kid and enjoy, it's just I don't feel I can fully use the resources I have access to to dive myself into things, because there's family right now that I know have bills stressing them, and I can't feel ok 'going on my journey' when I know they can't do that. I also feel maybe taking away that financial burden for them would in a way stagnate them.

Eventually I will figure it out and move forward. I've just been gone back and forth about it because Idk for a while before this happened it felt like I had finally come to accept that I was just going to be a normie, prepared to grind hard and begin my career and develop myself and be a 'contributing member of society', in the kind of silly way society deems people contributors.

And I know a lot of the ppl who've said it's easy, and to 'just tell them! just help them out on essential bills! just do this! it's easy! just do that!', a lot of the people saying that shit don't really get it. The nuances of my family dynamic mean nothing. I am not an emotionless, money-focused person. I only did the things I did because it was a means to an ends, and I've had anons say 'wooow you never had it in you to begin with!' and it makes me laugh because I know nearly everyone would say they had all these big charitable fanciful ideas, but end up not doing much of significance at all with it

>>56698540
>p-people just dont understand me
fuck off already pathetic retard

>>56691616

I have more money then before and I was never happier.

The first time I realized that I can just buy whatever small thing I want was a bliss. I remember I ordered a 4K TV+PS5 from the browser of cryptmi app. This detail is important because before I wouldn't even buy a damn thing without going and seeing. Because I was afraid that something would turn out to be bad with online purchase etc. (I know that's messed up) but it was like that... Then I never gave a fuck, I just started ordering stuff. Great times...

But the biggest saatisfaction lies in what you did, helping around. Keep on doing that anon. You will find the light and it will fill you to the point of happiness. You are lucky to be the handof the universe. Give to people!

>how to help family
You probably should look into setting up a trust for family / relatives.
Something like put 20% of proceeds of land into Family Trust and you come up with a plan and hire a trust administrator.
Yes you will pay $1000 per month (or whatever) to have a trust admin but it will massively lower your mental burden. Trust normally have rules which may go something like this: (a) must be over 35 to receive monies, (b) Monthly dividend can not be over X% of Trust Net Value, (c) Beneficiaries can file for emergency loans above what is outlined in "B" however it is decided on following criteria to discretion of trust admin....blah blah
Point on this is now all relatives deal with the trust administrator and not you....so you can just be "normal anon" and not have to play dual roles of telling a relative "no i'm not giving $8000 to pay your gambling debt" etc. That becomes trust admins job.....
For the rest of the money putting some in a trust with you as sole beneficiary may also be wise (possible to escape community property this way, talk to lawyer).
For last bit of money (final 20%) please research "Community Foundations"...this is a big topic and hard to write in mongolian basket forum, but effectively its whats known as Donor Advised Funds where you can donate a chunk of money and it is held in a specific entity known as a community foundation, then you are allowed to direct where that money goes over time....sometimes CF's are called "rent-a-foundation" and basically they offer you all the benefits of having your own private foundation with none of the admin work.

>>56691616

Congrats OP, you get to learn the hard and fast way about how having money is actually a massive pain in the ass. There are steps you can take to greatly reduce the burden however. How to secure your wealth and find meaning, abstract:

Secure Wealth
1) The more people who know, the more people that will stalk you as a prey. STFU is your first line of defense, ideally forever but if you must blab, at least wait until step 3 is completed.
2) Get ready to do a bunch of tedious ass managerial work. Learn how to use excel, especially. Study fundamentals of cybersecurity to understand how to keep your shit on lock. Create a monitoring+security protocol for all your accounts to greatly reduce the risk of getting FUCKED. You are a target now, and the more people who know, the greater the attack surface. So you literally must become your own security officer.
3) Create a trust. If you are pushing 8 figures, ideally 2-3 trusts with separate estate attorneys. Put most of the money/rights (80-90%) in them. At least one of the attorneys should be able to do your taxes. Literally just spill the beans to them about how you feel and how you want to set your family up without "cursing" them. And for how much money you will "make" from income. They will be familiar with this problem and be able to help you create a reasonable solution. Once this is done, do NOT feel like you owe anyone jack shit. This solves the "I owe people money because I don't deserve it" problem. And also covers your ass from a liability perspective, which goes into security. You are still a target, but now you are a fortified, hardened target.
4) Diversify your investments. This is the simplest step. The oil rights will deplete over time.

Find Meaning
1) You've got money. Money is a powerful tool when utilized properly. But much more easily squandered on half-hearted commitments. Find something you can put money AND time toward, that you are passionate about. There is no rush to do anything after the "secure wealth" steps are complete. Make a plan that has a reasonable chance of success, then execute.
2) You need a routine, even if just for 1-2 hours a day. I suggest exercise. It buffs every aspect of your physical and mental health. And it's something that can remove you from the "money solves this" dilemma. There are many things in life that only your grit and determination can solve that money can't, exercise is one of them. Learn to enjoy the process of overcoming suffering.
3) I've seen some anon mention stoic and existentialist philosophers. You should read this stuff. It's all written from a metacognitive perspective (i.e. above the mundane nature of everyday life). You have been forced into a metacognitive position and are struggling to find grounding. You are on a search for meaning beyond the mundane. These philosophers will not give you answers, but they can help you find the path. Also ancient hindu/buddhist writings are worth looking into, like the Vedas. Nietzsche's "Thus Spake Zarathustra" is the endgame of philosophy IMO. But best tackled only after reading many of his other works and the work of philosophers before him.
4) An idea: you said your uncle and your family (and indeed many natives on reserves) have struggled with addiction. That's a big, hard problem to solve. Fixing it, even a little, would have an outsized impact on those people's lives, their family and society as a whole. What if you could make a difference? Would you be proud, your family, your uncle? I think so. But it's much more than just throwing money at something. To truly help people overcome addiction the most effective way possible will require a considerable amount of effort in research on your part.

>>56691616
hi, i only read the title. some general advice: when you feel like lying on the internet for attention, it's time to fix your life so you don't have to lie

After performing "Secure Wealth" you are free to travel and do whatever the fuck you want in the process of discovering the new self you seek to become. No longer shall you trap yourself in the paralyzed womb of ill-founded guilt. The envy of your immediate family should not concern you when the walls of the trusts are set in stone. If you are true to yourself, to the discovery and fulfillment of what your mission must be, you will come to understand that the envious are but villains in your fable.

Nice thread OP. You are right to be careful about distributing money to family and friends, especially when you've inherited that money. Many would have no reservations about asking you for money and if you deny their request then they will be even more bitter because of how you acquired that money in the first place which would be a constant source or resentment. The very thing you would hope could bring a family together can end up moving them apart.

Often times you just can't help somebody, even if you paid off somebody's mortgage they would just find a new hole to dig for themselves. Whatever you do, I would consider you move very very slowly and sit on any big decisions for at least 3 months.

I've worked and lived around very wealthy people my entire life and very few are normal and well adjusted people with a sense of purpose.

I would also strongly recommend you pursue a spiritual path and pray for a closer relationship with God, everyday. Make a prayer request everyday for God to increase your faith in the divine and show you your path of purpose and fulfillment.

Make the best out of it.
You are now playing in a different Level.
Why not conquer a small country like cap verde?
Of start a company and sell knitted buttholes to China?
Or pay normale people to dispose non normal people.
The world is your oyster now leave your mark on the history.

frent your life is some 'killers of the flower moon' shit come to life (latest scorsese film, it's great but maybe don't watch as it will feel a bit too close to home perhaps)

sounds like your heart is in the right place. knowing what you know about the struggles with addiction that rez natives deal with, perhaps do some volunteer work on that side (don't just throw money at it, get actively involved, it's much more helpful and better for your soul).

>I never believe him bc it seemed like a desperate lie to make me want to console him about his inevitable OD, since he'd make me rich afterwards. Back in April, I was truly given everything and more.
I know a druggie who told me he had 2 BTC on a hard drive when he was drunk but denied it when he sobered up. Hmmmm.

You done fucked up hard anon.
Shut the fuck up is all you have to do. You have another 70 years of life left. You'll think of something eventually.

>>56691643
You now have the freedom to do anything anon. One of the most valuable thing in anyone' s life. You can now empower yourself, and others. Doing that to friends and people you already have a relationship with can be a bit weird, so probably a good thing to not splurge buying ferraris or lambos if you want to maintain those relationships.

> I feel weird every day when I think about revealing everyone close to me about it.

no need to tell anyone, at least not specifics.

>everything feels pointless
Maybe talk to a therapist or something? Every professional signs NDAs. I presume you had goals before this happened. why did you have those goals? purely money? If your single goal was earning money, you had bad goals and should reevaluate those goals.

We're approaching the singularity, one of the most exciting technological revolutions humanity has ever dreamed of, and money might not even be a thing in 50 years. Better yourself, and if you can, better humanity with it.

Its the creative writing fucks from reddit invading the website. Don't believe it is true for a sec. Am i the asshole for having so much money??? Sob sob

>>56691791
This is probably sadly true. I'd pay for parents or sisters mortgage, but stop at that.

>>56706092
Of course
If It's all true. Then its not surprising to feel wrong when the propaganda you've raised your whole life of "achieving goals" and being a "productive memeber of society" doesn't actually mean fuck all.
Well good luck. Furn to religion and community building or something i dont know. But most importantly shut the fuck up about money

>>56691791
Just like the comment above mine. This is also a path for community building.

>>56691616
First of all, really interesting story.

If i would endup in a situation like yours, i would just stfu and try to finish my degree. Just to accomplish the end of your academic career.
Then i would look for a nice town to settle and set up a business or a farm. Just hire people with knowledge and minimize your work to an extend you like. Then hire your close family, give them simple jobs and easy working hours. Simple as that. Since you don't have to worry about your profit, you can offer good services/goods at affordable prices. People will thank you for that, enjoy life, meet people, get a pet, be kind. Never tell anyone how you got the money, straight up lie and "build" your way to give the people you like access to the money. Also stop feeling responsible for everyone, you are not the center of the universe.

>>56691627
lmao

>>56691616
You have a ticket to pursue whatever you want. Art, hobbies, creating something. Or even starting a non profit to make a difference in the world.
Don't squander it.

What a fucking faggot holy shit
>Boo hoo I have a dream of a vacation
Holy fucking shit how homo can you fucking be god DAMN.
Just remember the fucking basic motto:
"It's only money".

personally I would revel in the misery the newly found wealth would bring to my family
I would scheme over how to corrupt and ruin the most amount of people possible
going biblical mastertroll on their asses like Spacey in se7en
but thats just me, personally

>>56691616
Find something you are passionate about and use your freedom to pursue it. Be generous, but choose wisely those you are generous with. Have a child, start a business, enjoy your life. If you do it right you will have set up passive income that will continue to support you and your family even when the oil stops flowing. Also, stop being a faggot about it.

>>56691616
you have escaped the sheckleberg wagie cage and you don't know what to do...... truly you are cattle. but if you have any self thought you would use that money to pursue your hobbies and hopefully make money or start your own business with something you like

read a lot of this thread, and OP if you're still reading, my 2 cents if it hasn't been said:

use that money to sorta forcefully end your family's addiction issues. like maybe there's a rehab dude that can move in with your family, and he's the only one who can give the green light on when the senpai can start recieving money. really and while you're paying people to live with your senpai, pay a spiritual guru or something like that to help you, and sometimes your family.
like bro, you could literally pay a team of experts in every aspect of life to give you and your family a life changing education, then when each expert gives you the green light, money flows.

just think of your money as energy, give it to the right machines, whether they be people or things, and you can accomplish just about anything. just start with step one brother, and take baby steps from there.

You’ll go mad if you don’t do anything.
Finish your degree at least and go do your thing. Use that money well, so you can have fun and grow it to the point where you can make a positive impact on the world.

You’ve got an opportunity many people have died trying to get. Don’t fall down the same hole your uncle did. Do something with the money that would make him happy to leave you the inheritance again

only browngoloids flaunt wealth. whites are smart enough to conceal it

>>56691616
this is an obvious demoralization post.

run a keyword scan:

poster is a deceptive entity

>>56691616
Keep it hidden dumbfuck, you will ruin your life if people know you have lots of money.
Invest smartly and buy up small businesses and let them manage themselves while you get the royalties.

>Now I made it and I don't know what to do now.
The correct answer is everything. Go travel and see if that changes your perspective on life. Do luxurious things just because you can. If you think she can handle it, tell your gf something more truthful to the enormity of what you have inherited and take her with you. And for god's sake, take some of the income and put it into non-oil investments. If the royalties dry up you don't want to be caught with your pants down.

> I hope to go to a financial advisor and make a lifelong business relationship with them/

Please, don't!!! Or before you do, please watch the PBS documentary "Retirement Gamble" to learn the redpill about financial advisors and their pitfalls. Read Jack Bogle (founder of Vanguard) book "The Little Book Of Common Sense Investing". Truly the only investment book you need. And, if you still choose to go to an advisor, at the very least you will be EDUCATED enough to sniff out the scammers. The real secret is - no financial advisor knows ANYTHING. Hedge funds blow up their accounts all the time, playing with OTHER PEOPLE'S money. Moreover, when you get a windfall, you're supposed to continue life as you did before for 1 year until it sinks in. Otherwise you will go down a bad path.

tl;dr SPY and chill. Or dividends and chill.

And if anyone wants to talk to me about these things or forming a business network for Gen Y and Z males (I don't ask for gibs) then please contact me.

I feel you bro. Our group has 127 Cybertrucks reserved - first of the line. We plan to flip them at a 6% markup. Depresses me to see people that dumb buying it.

>>56691616
Think over what everyone said and really take some time for yourself to sort through your feelings. Money gives you options but you have to think about what is good for you in the long term. I would suggest taking a week off and just jot down what you plan to do and how to go about doing them and seeing how it works. You have to live with your decisions so make the best choices you can think of.

Fuck you. If I had your wealth I'd just travel around the world rawdogging sluts and cumming deep in their pussies. You have no idea how good you have it OP

if i knew you i would "loan" 1mil from you, put it in index and you could keep the "keys" on it until it would pay my 1 mil loan back i.e. generate another mil, and then you just hand me my 1 mil flat. but i don't know you. and nobody would ever be ready for this

OP, don't assume you are set for life. The average oil well in Texas produces for about 17 years. How many years has it already been producing? There is a good chance that may not be producing in 10 years, so act accordingly.
