Been here since 2017 but didn't have any income to make it.

My only goal is to pay off my mortgage and live 100% debt free and coast off programming jobs.

Enjoy your travels friend.

> Ireland was beautiful
> Paris was fun

Looking forward to some my own travels soon.

What were your favorite travels?

>>58091859
>What were your favorite travels?
Japan, South Korea, South Africa, Brazil, Netherlands
Going to Japan again next week

Sounds boring as fuck ngl

>>58091933
You have to find your own sense of meaning. You can't rely on work to find purpose (as if wageslaving gives anyone purpose). Given the abundance of free time over the years I've had a great deal of time to look into many philosophies and read some great works of literature. The Stoics, Buddhism, Taoism, egoism, etc.
I will say though I have absolutely zero stress in my life.

>>58091946
I don't worry about money and I spend whatever I want, in my book that's making it. Arbitrary numbers don't really matter.

>>58091699
If I may ask, how are you managing your money these days?
Are you still investing, did you start any businesses?

>>58091907
Japan and South Korea seem like such amazing places for technical innovation. Always envy visiting some day to see what a functioning society looks like.

>>58091990
>If I may ask, how are you managing your money these days?
I sold 80% of my portfolio and it's now in VTSAX, the remaining 20% is in bitcoin
>Are you still investing, did you start any businesses?
I still follow investing but I don't do any aside from rebalancing my portfolio and managing my gambling account (1% of my portfolio or around 80k)
Nope, as I said mostly playing games and traveling. Obviously that's a bit hyperbolic but mostly just doing hobbies, hanging out with friends, exploring the world

>>58092005
Yeah I've loved my time in both countries. Tokyo is truly sprawling, I had a week where I just walked around it for a long time. The countryside shouldn't be overlooked either, very nice sites and a comfy atmosphere.

>>58091699
I aspire to achieve these, but I lose hope as I get older. At the moment I have 0.9 Bitcoin, ~1000 ICP, plus negligible amounts in some other coins.

But I just don't see myself making a substantial amount of this anytime soon. Maybe Bitcoin will reach 500k in a decade, but who knows? I could go back to gambling on shitcoins, but that's always been a losing proposition for me.

>>58092044
My advice is just hold, don't look at it. Keep pumping money in and say "I'll check this in 5 years and not a second before"

what is it like to have sex and be rich with 0 health problems?

>fell for the travel meme
surely you have a wife and children right? otherwise it's pointless "making it"

Poosting in epic bread. Keep being based, OP.
t. 1M in crypto hoping to make it this cycle

>>58092064
Yeah I'm basically putting $1000 in every paycheck. I wish I had started doing this back when I first got into crypto in 2017. I'd probably have made it by now.

>>58092083
I've had a few fwb but I just tell them I do data entry work from home for like 30k a year.
You can get very good prostitutes in many countries, I've probably had like 150 maybe?
>>58092089
I've never wanted a wife or kids, freedom is the most invaluable possession
>>58092125
Yeah I hope it's not too late DESU, I got lucky cause I heard about bitcoin and eth in 2015 and just dumped all my money I made that year into it. I got lucky

What exactly do you do when you "travel"? I'm also made it retired but every time I try "traveling" I'm bored out of my mind. just walking around by yourself is very dull. I could do that where I live.

>>58092232
See things, meet people? I mean that's what "traveling" is

>>58091699

>>58092297

>>58092169

>>58092323

>>58091963
Don't listen to that guy. He sounds boring. Do your thing, man. Good for you and God bless.

>>58091699
I made it in 2021 but didn't sell
I'll probably be back to those numbers but don't be greedy like me bros, take profits along the way.

>>58092799
Just trying to understand what it is that's so great about it. Everyone acts like traveling is the best thing possible in life and should be your highest aspiration and ultimate goal once you make it but for me it's like "okay I'm here in another city what exactly is so great about this?" I wish I could get it, seeing as everyone says that's what you should do once you've made it. So I'm asking what exactly do you do when travel? Just walk around? That's life's ultimate aim? Walk around in some foreign place?

>>58092874
OP is a larping nigger

>>58092874
having lots of money just frees up your time so you can travel alot if u want. theres a lot of places in the world to see, not just cities but historical places and natural scenery. you do what you want.

>>58092874
Well first thing you have to understand is that every place in the world is different so one goal of traveling is merely to get out of your particular shithole and experience something else. Secondly when you travel you can go to good places and not shitholes. Some of my favorite spots
>Greece
Beaches, mediterranean food, interesting history and architecture, lots of tourist girls to fuck, it's cheap
>Italy
The fucking food, also the history and architecture, beautiful women with actual charm, really good hiking
>Switzerland
Skiing and hiking, an actual functional country
And several others including in Amerifat land. Like Hawaii. Have you ever been there? It's so chill you can just fall asleep to the sound of waves on the beach.

Planning on visiting SEA (not for the roasties I'm a very sensitive incel I am interested in the buddhist temples. I want to bike frm the tip of IndoChina across the area then enter pajeet land through Burma and then travel up to the Himalayas by getting into Nepal.)

>>58093877
lol what a great plan you should definitely spend a ton of money on a shitty ass trip that you won't enjoy anyway i know your autistic ass isn't going to actually do any of the things on your itinerary have fun sweating and crying and being miserable in some jungle shithole i've heard its hot and humid maybe you'll get sick and die maybe that would be the best course of action for you

>>58093899
I'll be fine. I've been through latinxamerica before and came out alright. I have no interest in roastie pussy drugs or alcohol so I don't see what the major issue I could get in would be.

>>58093899
i dont understand what you're talking about but i'm just going to agree and say you're right spurdo erc is a scam and you should not buy it the trip is a great plan he should definitely go on it his wife should go on the trip too he isn't autistic and he will enjoy the trip he definitely doesn't need spurdo erc and he doesn't need more money and he doesn't need a girlfriend or a wife have fun on the trip i'm sure the jungle shithole will be wonderful have a good time

>>58091699

I too dream of making it. I can't imagine ever actually making it, but it is nice to dream.

> t. 4 figure inferno

>>58092874
If it doesn't appeal to you, don't do it.

When I travel, I feel inspired and spiritually full. On the other hand, my brother has said that if he had to choose between an all-expense paid trip to Europe with all his friends or a single Vicodin, he would choose the Vicodin every single time. It's not for everyone I guess.

I'm hoping to win this 1BTC star prize at an ongoing price prediction contest. We can work all the way from 5figures to 8figures.

>>58091699
Test, this is OP here, I don't think I will get the same ID though because my phone changed networks

>>58096969
never mind I'm happy to answer any questions

>>58096945
Delusional now?
It's a long road from 5 figures to 7 figures; talk more of 8 figures. Wake up fag.
What star prize is that BTW?

>>58096988
how old are you?

and how are you keeping your wealth now, are you living off passive income?

>>58097449
31
As I said earlier, it's 80% VTSAX and 20% BTC
This is my VTSAX at vanguard

>>58097449
>>58097607
So I don't have any passive income per se (no bonds or staked eth or whatever), I usually withdraw 1 to 3% of my portfolio at the beginning of the year and use that as a budget

>>58097607
I'm so fucking jealous OP. How much do you spend a year? Besides basic necessities, do you spend most of your money on travel? Do your friends and family know how rich you are?

>>58097822
>How much do you spend a year?
Between 50k to around 125k, I try to keep my expenses within 3% of my portfolio. I have a house I bought outright (around 700k) so I don't have to pay rent. I actually really don't buy that much, it's kind of hard to spend that much money. I do move around a lot in air bnbs though from city to city. My biggest expense was mostly building the best PC commercially available
>Do you spend most of your money on travel?
Travel is actually not particularly expensive, I went to Japan, Okinawa, Ireland, the Czech Republic, Italy, Sweden last year and that was only around 35k or so total
>Do your friends and family know how rich you are?
My parents know, my friends don't. I mostly tell my friends I have a work from home job and my parents take me on vacations all the time

>>58097438
Rome wasn't built in a day; if the target is 8 figures but I somehow stop at 7figures, that's still a huge win IMO.

>>58092169
You convinced yourself having kids is a negative but it's an enormous positive long term. Especially if you have 8 million dollars it's not like you'd need a day job any time soon. All my dad does nowadays is spend time with his grandchildren and me and my sister. He says we're the best thing he ever did and I value him more than the world

>>58100571
That's what happens when ur old and ur t drops off lol. No dude would willingly spend time around children unless they were elderly or just low t in general.

>>58100585
so its ideal to have children when your older, over 40-50?

>>58100571
I've never had an urge to do it. Pretty simple. I don't get angry at people who don't live my bachelor lifestyle, your choice and more power to you. Just doesn't interest me. The opposite seems to occur all the time though, I wonder why. Perhaps they're not actually satisfied with their lives and misery loves company...
>>58100585
This is true. T levels drop significantly after marriage.

>>58100666
Fuckin hell satan have kids whenever u want lol.
Jk but yeah thats my plan. But the issue with having kids as a male after 25-30 is mutational load. Homosexuals and people with ADHD and other such issues are correlated by older paternal age (yh yh correlation not causation but older women also have higher rates of health issues in the child and we don't deny that).
Easiest, and simplest way to offset this is to freeze your sperm in your late teens or in your twenties and use IVF when you have the material capability for it.
Or just bite the bullet and have kids naturally when you're older. It's your life anyway.

>>58100681
Yeah. Many of the greatest people in history were raised by maids and nannies. Parenthood therefore really is not a necessity and all it does is stifle a young guy with passions beyond changing diapers or something. And these days with ART one can literally have kids whenever they like lol.

>>58100762
damn dude
so you plan on freezing your sperm?? how much would that even cost?

maybe in the future we can genetically optimize the sperm/egg so the child is born perfect?

>>58100795
It is very cheap even here in America. Like 5k for 10 years something like that.

>maybe in the future we can genetically optimize the sperm/egg so the child is born perfect?
We have rudimentary sequencing right now but yeah engineering would be cool but the tech just doesn't exist. What you can do is make sure the embryo is healthy, and if you freeze a lot of your sperm you can get a lot of embryos and only pick the healthiest one.

>>58100816
damn man you've really thought this out thanks for the advice

>>58100762
This is why I had all my kids between 21-24. Made about $3 million back in 2017 and I've just been raising my kids with my wife and relaxing ever since. When I'm in my 40s my kids will be fully grown, which sounds nice.

>>58100829
Cool for u brother man but I'm super spergy. Don't even have bad genes, I look ok, am 6'1, in shape etc but extremely spergy. Don't wanna change either so I thought of all this stuff in like middle school.

>>58100827
I planned to do this since I was in middle school lol.

>>58100827
And yh bruther no prblm. Do what's best for you of course.

>>58100848
I'll never understand it but ok. Having kids has been the most fulfilling experience of my life, blah blah blah you've heard all these shit talking points before. Agree to disagree because I don't get it.

>>58100878
Yh man I'm just super spergy, I shouldn't have said "no dude" some guys are different. It also depends how good your wife is I'm assuming. I wouldn't know about that.

>>58099241
You're actually needed to predict the price of BTC at the halving; the person with the closest prediction wins the contest but you need to submit at least 5 entries to qualify to emerge as the winner. Drop your entries on the official link on Nuklai's page and not on biz!

>>58100878
yea i think the main issue nowadays is the lack of suitable mates, and it's more of an issue for younger people as they've been desensitized and grew up in a post-social media world where they we're exposed to tons of ideals and fantasies and now reality is too boring so most young men and women are too ADHD to settle down with anyone

a good % of young people are addicts, whether it be prescription drugs, drugs, screens, porn, video games
the other % are working and are barely sustaining themselves because inflation is too high and their wages make it difficult to keep up with mortgage, rent, living costs

i think this is mostly issue in first world, developed countries
if you go to poorer, third world countries, the people there still feel like humans
whereas, the young people in developed countries become less and less human

feels like we need some major renovation/reset for the way forwards especially for young folks in developed countries, otherwise it looks like doom in the future

how will all these tiktokers ever become parents? will they be able to raise children? will they have the patience?

kinda feels like developed countries are on the edge of a cliff when in comes to population, i can't see where the next generation will come from

in dating apps for example,
most of the successful matches are people whom are over >40 years old
it's because people >40 years old didn't grow up in a over-stimulated technological world, so they actually learned how interpersonal skills, whereas all the young folks today are under-developed socially because they spend most of their time on screens

it's kinda scary to imagine what the future holds, but i'd imagine AGI will come up with a solution for us dumb humans

>>58091699
How old are you??

>>58091699
Where did you decide to settle and why?
I am thinking of getting EU citizenship but people are telling me not to because of the gov shit. I don’t know if it’s fine settling in SEA or pay up more to stay in EA like Japan or Taiwan that is more developed. No way in hell am I wanting to retire back in the US fuck that noise.

I bought a house in a decent place (around 700k) but nothing extravagant. I would never buy a mansion or a mcmansion because I would never use any of that space.
I'm pretty much the same after making it then before. I'm a lot less stressed and have a lot more free time to do things I like. I'd say I'm much closer to my "real" self than when I had to succumb to wagecucking for hours on end...

Germany hookers are good because they're both decently cheap and pretty attractive. Prostitution is very regulated there so you shouldn't have any concern of STDs, in fact they're cleaner than most other women because they are required to get monthly tests. Brazil has more latina women obviously but it's less safe. UK also has some decent hookers, I find british accents attractive on women so that's a plus for me
I haven't tried SEA hookers out of fears of HIV and other various STDs.

>Parenthood therefore really is not a necessity and all it does is stifle a young guy with passions beyond changing diapers or something

How do you think maids and nannies felt? They simply did that degrading shit because they needed the money and were from lower class backgrounds. I do not want someone else raising my child, especially in this political climate. Maybe you could argue for a specially vetted person if you had a high enough income, but even then, I value my child as a human being who deserves one-on-one time with me, to pass on what I know and give them the emotional tools to deal with the world and not grow up bitter and resentful like the tards here. Children historically WERE raised by their parents (and close relatives) and still are around the world. It's why everyone but whites have deeply seated cultures and homogeny. Their downfall is being low IQ, so those cultures don't offer a lot, but they are home to those people. We don't experience that because we're Judified. Industrialist cancer to abandon one's roots and call it "following passions." Sound like a spoiled woman.

I made it too but it just made me depression worse. Being a neet sucks dick. Nowhere in America looks like a good place to live. I have no interest in flaunting it to get with shallow women and I can't find good women anywhere. Its miserable and alienating. I wish I was dead.
