No larping. Parents heard about this story on CNN and finally want me out of the house. I am a 29 yo neet with little job history and no degree past hs. They are giving me a year to move out, I have some money from Crypto ($15k) but they now also want me to pay 300$ rent from that... What skill or trade can I learn within a year that is not gonna have me flipping burgers or becoming homeless within a year? Programming? Trade school? Start a business? Just move out now and live in a car? I am overwhelmed as fuck right now.

I am not sure why I am this stupid or why I come to /biz/ for help, but I could use some advice.

Buy crypto and learn to program. Do your parents have any friends that run their own business?

My parents friends run a small business (500k to 1mil revenue per year) and they let me begin working there a few years ago for $10 an hr, then I eventually moved up to $19 an hour in about a year working there. They kind of tailored a custom position around my autism. They always tell everyone I am the best employee they ever had.

I work 2 days a week making about $250 per week. This is enough if you are a neet.

There is nothing perfect about a neet life, otherwise you wouldnt be getting kicked out. Get some cisco/it certs and start working freelance. Your community college may even cover the costs. Start making progress, then ask your parents for more time if you need. They will be more likely to say yes if you are taking active steps to gtfo. You need to want to improve. Dont treat being a NEET like a good thing even if it really is.

Man I don't know. Except for being a financial burden for longer than I should be I really wasn't much of "nuisance" to them ever. And when I did get money from Crypto I even paid some of their bills up to 1000$ last March. I didn't expect them to let me live here forever, but I also didn't expect a rogue neet on CNN to proxy-evict me either.

I have a friend who runs a business but its kinda on and off and failing, but running for 5 years. I guess I could ask him for some advice, feels bad though. But yeah I'll try my best. Programming seems like my only option at this point really, I attempted and failed CS50x multiple timees though.

I have to say, this story was a genius play by (((them)))
They knew a large chunk of cryptofags were adult men still living with their parents, and they were getting too much money
So they threw this story out there to convince other parents to throw those men out and make their little crypto hobby more difficult to keep up with, with the threat of homelessness/having to wagecuck to survive

The first step is to get the fuck over this mentality. If you've learned anything from being around here, it should be that you are fucking responsible for your own shit. No one forced you to be a NEET.

The second step is to go to look into getting your net, net+, security, and security+ certifications and then take some of that remaining $13,500 (after your rent) and invest into a webdev bootcamp.

If you work your ass off, you'll be more than ready to become a productive member of society instead of a leech within a year. Yes, you'll be a wagecuck - get the fuck over it. Make money, suck the dick, and build yourself up to where you can operate on your own either through passive income, investments, or owning your own business.

No one in this world owes you a fucking thing, and it's time to face that reality.

Well shit, reality hits hard and fast. I can't go from 1 to 100 within a few hours after being faced with one of the biggest changes in my life. You're right though, I am planning to absolutely learn/work or whatever my ass off, because this is a serious reality check. It is not like I haven't tried to get out of this situation before, the alternative of just staying around was just better.

> net+, security, and security+ certifications

What about CCNA? I dabbled around shortly, even have study books from a time where I thought programming/networking is something I could dedicate some free time on. But I was never as motivated as I am right now, I just don't want to waste the next year on something which isn't going to throw of any fruits.

CCNA is also good, but it's a bit more complex. I posted the net/sec stuff because those are the easiest to get and essentially guarantee you a job (albeit a terrible one) in some companies IT department. They are easy enough to allow you to focus on something more substantial like a webdev bootcamp. If you can manage net/sec/CCNA, that's the best way to go, but don't forgo learning actual programming.

You can learn the shit necessary to become an architect, but that is going to take you much longer than a year. In a SHTF situation like yours, stick to webdev. Easy, dirty, quick turn around on employment and profitability.

I am recommending the net/sec and the webdev shit because they are very easy and require minimum effort. You need to be cognizant of the fact that you're a NEET, so no amount of motivation is going to magically teach you a work ethic in the coming months. Stick with the easy shit that guarantees employment so you won't be homeless in a year.

>>9651236
Is an option, but do you have the personality and social skills to bring in that kind of tip money? Even in America's current YOU BETTER FUCKING TIP mentality, it's not a guarantee you'll make decent money on tips and what is considered "decent" is largely dependent on where you live. If you don't live in a metropolitan area that likes it's bars and clubs, you aren't going to be making $40-50/hr bar tending at the local Buffalo Wild Wings.

>become a productive member of society

I love this normie meme. He didn't ask to be born and now it's forced to work for a society that owns him nothing and doesn't give a shit about him. The only thing society wants from you is your money but neets don't have money so of course they will guilt trip them into becoming souless wageslaves. And you don't even make that much of an impact in society by wagecucking considering there's quite a lot of unemployment. The only way to make significant impact is to become a doctor because more doctors are always needed.

OP, swing trade shitcoins with $5k and save the remaining $10k to pay rent to your shitty parents. Once you have enough (around $50k +), invest in a solid project and wait a few years. In the mean time you will have to wagecuck unfortunately. The easiest option is to become a truck driver. I assume you don't have a social life if you are a 29 yrs old neet so the trucker lifestyle won't affect you. You might need a truck license so use some of your money for that as well. Once you make it, cut contact with your parents and tell them to fuck off.

Thanks for this anon! Yes, webdev doesn't sound that bad. Learning programming was always an issue of motivation but I guess I have no excuse now. I know a little of Python, Ruby and PHP, but always quit those online courses when the hard stuff came at me. Literally had a nightmare involving nested loops when I tried to get through CS50x. I'll spend some time figuring out where to start by tomorrow.

then stop feeling like le programming is guaranteed employment or skills. you're going to end up wasting your time realizing in 8 months that you hardly understand the fucking basics. just because you feel like a geek doesn't mean you can program. Try to start an apprenticeship, which IS piss easy and way better money than an amateur "programmer".

It is though. Like I said before, I never had the motivation to carry through any of the programming courses mostly because there was no reason. Now there's one. It's not like I didn't understand the course material, I just didn't care to proceed. The little money I made and experience I do have comes from managing a few dozen wordpress websites with content bought from pajeets on fiverr, SEO and some minor code hacks by myself about 5-6 years ago. So I definitely know where programming falls into place....somehow.

I don't know what you're into but depending on your interests you might try becoming a PhD student. I love it. I get paid to read about & tinker with shit that I was already doing in my spare time anyway. Yes the pay is low (only 28k / year) but you're a NEET so you're used to that anyways, right?
So life is good, and it only gets better after you finish, depending on your field; in the areas of statistics, computer science, or electrical engineering for example, you can pull upwards of 150k STARTING in industry, or become a professor and live an easy lifestyle with tons of free time while making 80-100k.
Only trick is to be a PhD student you need to get a bachelor's degree and you need really good grades but your parents will probably gladly help you out with that financially and trust me when I say getting good grades is easy as fuck. Undergraduate classes are designed for you to get A's if you just spend a few hours a week studying. Start in community college for cheap with the plan of transferring to a 4-year school as a junior (filling your gen.ed requirements and early math classes at CC), and start slow. Of course, live at home as you are now, primarily to keep costs down, but also to avoid getting too caught up in continuous gaming, parties, and drugs.
If parents push back at helping with school just note the massive discrepancy between salaries of people with degrees and people without (i.e. according to Wired, autonomous vehicle engineer average salary is $400K/yr) and how much smarter it is to invest now.
Trade school / bootcamp bullshit is quicker money in the near future but so much less rewarding long term.

Some of my friends found a workaround for this situation, however, it probably won't work for most of you.

My neet friend failed out of college, lived at his mom's house and couldn't keep a job as a server anywhere because he would no-call-no-show all the time. Eventually his Mom gave him the countdown to move out.

So he got back with his old girlfriend, moved out of his mom's house and into her house, and now he's in essentially the same situation but instead of his mom cooking, cleaning, paying the bills for him it's his gf. So you could try that but really it requires being able to actually get an enabling gf that's as bad as your parents so might not work for you.

Otherwise, you need friends that are not failures like you. My brother owns his own business and several of our former-neet friends are his employees. Again, this might not work for you because you need to actual have friends.

I'm starting my solo practice as a lawyer and I plan to hire the more dependable of my old, unhireable friends as employees. Sadly, the kind of attitude that makes one a neet in the first place doesn't translate well to being a good employee so I have some friends I care about deeply but would never hire (esp the one with fucking face tats jfc).

It's all about forming real connections with people you trust, aka, you need friends to help. You could pick yourself up by your own bootsraps but let's face it, you would have already done that by now.

Reach out to old friends and/or gf, "that's what friends are for" hopefully still means something
