Both your statements I believe to be true. There is not so much to add, I fear. As I realized something similar or more or less equal to what you said, I became a doomer. And this I am ever since. I am not kidding here, you a-r-e indeed r-i-g-h-t, and it is pure hell realizing this and having no idea as to how to escape it.

We have the advantage of understanding this. Do what you have to do or die trying.

And what is it that I could do, you think? Is there anything left? I kind of feel like I d-i-d all I could and I reached in some ways what was possible, but still, I am lost.

become ultra competitive at your passion

Population is gonna be over 10 billion soon enough. Wealth and opportunities are becoming more scarce because there's simply too many people. Everything is saturated and it won't stop until growth stops.

[Anonymous No.12527868]

Now how do you compete with billions of other people who are willing to not only die, but even torture other people or commit atrocities so they can get ahead of you? When you live in a world like today only the strongest survive, is that worth losing your humanity?

My passion is investing and I am not bad with this. I always made money for myself and my family, I do have a PhD and I am still considered 'young'. My problem is twofold: 1. In my country 'finance' is the opposite of anything having to do with trading, investing, actively managing capital. We are a nation of cowards, super conservatives when it comes to money. 2. I am considered something of a career changer (coming from pure academics) and, again, in my country this is not see in any way benevolent. In USA this is quite normal: If you're, more or less, capable and you do deliver, no one fucking cares for your background. I am oversimplifying here, I do know this, but it's about the nuances.

Brainlet response to a larger issue. This isn't all about making the most money. There are bigger things at stake.

It's only a brainlet response if you look at it from that angle

Ive already told you its time to become ultra competitive, we cant help each other as much as we want to

I agree, I really don't understand why people reply in this way. It's unproductive, near-spam.

>>12528004

This, by no means, is an achievable way for a majority. Now you will say 'sure, I never said, a majority will make it'. Two things: First, as long as we do not have open war, famine and the like, a majority will simply have to somehow get through aka 'make it'. Second, even now, there are numerous people getting it done, being successful not by being super smart, competitive or something along these lines, but instead by sheer luck, mainly by nepotism or predatory behavior.

things will keep advancing and jobs will keep dissapearing, innovators and entrepreneurs are the new free people, the capacity for luck and simply being predatory is diminishing every year, things are getting complex and people will be forced to become smarter, the uneducated will at minimum be coders and technicians, im telling you, the only way out is to be smarter and stand at the pinnacle, there is no other way anymore, competitors are seperated by technology, strategy and quality can only be raised so much, organizations will always have spots open for innovators, dont be disposable be smarter

in a globalized world only results matter, nepotism and luck cant compete with results and performance, shit is getting real it is time to boot the fuck up

yep you're absolutely right. Get rich or get cucked.

realize that as a westerner we can only steal from each other, we can not beat manufacturing costs of chinese goods or indian goods, we are effectively locked out from selling our products in their markets, yet we continue to buy from them, the only thing we can sell these people are status symbols,

A way too simplified version of how 'things work'. Domestic markets in, as you call it, the western world do not consist of what you said even on a very crude macro point of view. It's simply not true. Also the relation of 'the western world' directed to Asia is not even closely good described by just inhabitants of the first just being able to export luxury goods and - as the other anon added - tech.
