It get worse and worse and eventually you'll "get used" to it getting worse and worse, and thats the point where you have lost your soul.

Wagecuck of 12 years here, can confirm. At one point you stop noticing the time go by, and you will conform to the lifestyle.

Its actually fucking crazy, time flies at such an accelerated rate when you have fully succumb to the routine. Like sometimes I'll space out for weeks at a time. I'll space out eating lunch and only come back to later that week when I eat the same lunch and the flavor stimulates my brain in a deja-vu scenario. Months feel like weeks to me. A day passes in an hour. You wake up, brush your teeth, blink and you're doing it all over again before bed. And time will only accelerate faster and faster with time. Age 65 seems so far away but you'll be there before you know it, and you'll have thrown away your life. Your entire existence has been reduced to rubble, just shuffling papers around at a desk so that you can come home and eat, shit & sleep. Frien ds, family and hobbies take a back seat, when you come home from work you are irritable, you dont want to talk to anyone. When you have to make a call to dispute some credit card charge at lunch you resent the world, for making you waste quality break/alone time.

I got rid of my health insurance about two years ago because its really not worth living, I'm banking on a deadly cancer to spread through my body and kill me ASAP so I don't have to do this anymore.

TL;DR your life is over.

>wagecuck for 12 years

why not take a vacation you cuck?

[Anonymous No.11346307]

>>11346300
I take a vacation every year, it doesn't help. Its still part of the NPC grind, it only makes things worse to be frank.

I know the feel. I didn't get my first job until I was almost done with college so I was used to doing jack shit every summer. The first summer I worked I couldn't help but feel amazed at how quickly the time went by. Being a wagecuck also seems to greatly accelerate the aging process but maybe it's just me. A sedentary job + no regular exercise will DEFINITELY do that to you once you get past your mid 20's.

no, time speeds up and a decade feels like a year. You'll be 30 soon and wondering what you did with your youth and life.

I seriously don't understand why our fellow wagies spend their hard earned bucks on useless mcmansions and german cars when they could invest it and escape from the wage grinder many years before they're old.

Gains from investments compound over time, they still take 20-40 years to accumulate something substantial (assuming you don't get super lucky with something like AMZN or BTC) so you'll still be 50-60 by the time you cash out, at which point you'll be bald and your dick wont work anymore.

I can't work for someone. I only get satisfaction if I'm working for myself, so I need to get to the point of being able to get by on my own, while having time to pursue things that don't include commuting to work and sitting at a desk for half of my life. I used to think it would be cool to finally finish college and get a job. "Once I get a nice job I can just go home and do whatever I want!"

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Literally just quit and go do something else if you feel this way. What the fuck is stopping you? Sure you'll have to make an effort to make it work out and it will be stressful but in the end it certainly will be more rewarding than the slog your current life is. If you're married and with kids, well I guess you're fucked though

[Anonymous No.11347191]

you can pretty easily retire by 40 if you live frugally and invest at age 20 or earlier. Once you get 25x annual expenses you're good.

lemme just travel backwards 10 years in time, ty for the advice

Why does (((higher education))) never mention investments and savings?

[Anonymous No.11347291]

They kind of do in high school math but the problem is most teenagers let alone most 25-30 year olds don't give a fuck about super long term goals

can confirm OP. Wagie for 3 years which went by like 3 months.

Came back for grad school this fall, while still committed to 30 hrs/week at job. feel like i woke up from a bad dream.

best advice.. dont allow yourself to get comfortable with the routine or else (as the other anons have said...) it will be over before you know it.

>tfw red ID in my fresco thread
JUST god damnit I have half a BTC 3 ETH 300 ICX and about 30k in savings I pray to god we see 100-500k BTC so I can by some rental properties and become a landlord NEET at least in my wage cage I get to read Ebooks on the companies dime all day so my time is completely wasted

[Anonymous No.11348134]

Yes it only gets worse.

You have two choices-

keep wagecucking, do the burger dream thing (2.5 kids, white picket fence, etc)

Or..

Find something you can make passive/active income with outside of waging...learn how to daytrade or start your own business or something..if you can replace even 75% of your income this way (from experience) you’ll be less miserable

[Anonymous No.11348194]

>>11348134
>75%
This is why you’ll never be free
How much is a shit apartment with roommates and food for a month? Probably 1000. When you hit 1k per month, that is when you quit. Then you can increase this amount because you actually have the time to work on it. Plus you could move to a cheap country and get back your old lifestyle of eating out, etc

Yeah you wanna kill your self but just think about how nice your 401k is and how you’ll get to enjoy it when you’re 70!

[Anonymous No.11348217]

>>11348194
I’m already free for around a year now lol. I do better than 75% but probably more the exception than the rule there I think

Is automated self employment the garden of eden I imagine it to be or do you reflect fondly upon your days of servitude?

[Anonymous No.11348308]

>>11348260
Waging fucked with my head pretty hard (put in around a decade of servitude). Can’t believe the shit I put up with looking back at it. The only nice thing I can say about it is it provided the working capital needed to escape it.

I’m glad it’s not the case but if I had to choose between ever waging again and starving it would be a coin flip

[Anonymous No.11348345]

>>11348308
Lol @ a coin flip
I am 4 months in ag my developer job but I already know I will end my life if I am doing this for more than 1 more year. Before that happens I would simply cop out to the easiest job imaginable (either hospital/school IT or hotel night auditor)

With that in mind I have nothing to lose so I think that is an advantage. For back up im saving 10k to live for 2 years in Thailand just in case I crack.
