I have like $1000 sitting in some blue chips already. Also like $250 for food this month. And I get my last student loan payout on the 25th, which'll be like $600. That's all the money I'll have until late August, when school starts up again. I don't have to pay rent until end of July either, so that's cool.

Wrong kiddo. You are establishing a record of being a reliable employee, establishing contacts with people who are successful in business, people who will attest to your reliability when you are seeking more money. You get the opportunity to learn skills and put them into practice, customer interaction. I did all that shit when I was a teenager and got to 6 figures by the time I was 40.

Nigger, I didn't buy and hold (or mine) 5000 BTC in 2010, because of my risk-averse nature. I know myself by now and can manage just fine.

It will become a waste of time once you spend those money on normie garbage like most seasonal wagecucks.

There’s a difference between getting lucky making a shitton of cash, and having a reputation for having skills and ability, which earn trust of your peers. People in general avoid spoiled rich people, unless they think they can take advantage of you, but someone who can do a job can earn respect and build genuine relationships.

Listen to people who have actually lived instead of acting like jewbots programmed by Disney channel, SJW teachers and single moms.

Or maybe you are hard wired into thinking that working 9-5 is the only way to earn money

If you need to ask this question then you’re most likely not skilled enough to have a higher expected return by trading instead of holding. The vast majority of traders can’t beat the markets. If you’re trading with less than 100k then it’s definitely better value to just get a job and trade/hold on the side.

I think you should get a summer job and trade crypto. Anyone who thinks he needs to quit his job/work full time "trading" is either a lazy retard or someone who is smart enough to know how to dedicate his time to trading and maximising his profits. In the second scenario you wouldn't be asking stupid questions here, though. You would already be making big bucks trading.

So what? It will make you a better person and it will be one more thing to add to your resumé. Having low wage work experience tells a prospective employer that you aren't lazy, aren't afraid to get your hands dirty and don't have a superiority complex.

That doesn't work. Or it's not optimal, at the very least. Also, it seems to me like many of you seem to think that time isn't valuable, for some reason.

>So what? It will make you a better person and it will be one more thing to add to your resumé.

No, it really doesn't. It isn't worth adding to my "resumé", as you call it.

No, it tells him something else entirely.

Not sure who to reference here but OP is right.
If you’re spending 8 hours a day doing labor that pays $12, but that 8 hours prevents you from doing labor that may pay you $100, then by doing job 1 you are actually losing time and money by not taking the opportunity in job 2.
