>> No.12613083

2009 was my freshman year of University, it was the beginning of my decline for me.

10 years on, I'm just as aimless as I was, but I have a bit more money and confidence now. But the aimlessness made me walk a path of shitty jobs and people that has smothered my youthful energy and it's now just smouldering, the jadedness I have built up are the rain droplets inching towards that smouldering ash.

Its not about anything else besides finding something that makes you feel okay with the fact that you are here on earth for one second. while a nice job or a nice girlfriend can distract you from that fact, you wont find hapiness until you learn to let go.

Sure he can snowflake. But it doesn't mean you'll be any better than your colleagues. You're going to have a tough time, I know your types.

I regret falling for meme financial pinheads like Ron Paul and Peter Schiff. Fuck them all.

Don't try to be cute and "outsmart" the market. Important thing is diversification, when one pool goes up you withdraw and invest in the other pools that are going down and spend some money on yourself.

After you graduate and get a job, your focus should be saving up for a down payment on a house/property. Don't buy a brand new car when you're young. Don't give into peer pressure. Cut off any "friends" that egg you on buying useless expensive stuff like that. Stand up for yourself. Don't be afraid to walk away. Stop wasting time on video games. Credit is everything so build up credit. Learn which cards to get, do your research. With cars, you don't want to be stupid-frugal but be smart. Don't be that socially autistic virgin that tries to save every penny. Be frugal-smart, not frugal-stupid.

Most important investment is yourself.
