Long story short, for the past 2 years ive been eating 1 meal a day and waging deeper into debt. two days ago I found out my boomers have been siphoning money that I was ENTITLED to so they can... not fucking joking... buy their third and largest house in the past 5 years WHILE TAKING LOSES ON ALL PREVIOUS HOUSES. I called her a cunt, told her she would never know her grandchild's love, quit my job, walked out of my apt lease and drove 5 states north to ensure it would be statistically impossible to even ACCIDENTALLY meet her grandchild. Betray your blood, lose your immortality. My mother violated the first rule of biology, ensure the safety of your prodigy, especially if you only have one and your womb defunct.

>>Had me and drilled into me that I had to go to college because he couldn't
After half a decade of clinical depression and suffering I'm back in school because my boomer father had the same attitude.

I want to program now, but I've developed a complex around not having a degree and it's driving my insane even though I no longer care for the idea of having a degree after all the struggle. No debt, fortunately, but 3 years behind in graduating at the age of 23, probably won't get a degree until I'm 24/25, currently an electrical engineering student.

I just want to create children's/young adult entertainment now, but I have no idea how I'd monetize it, so I'm left trudging through a degree long after I lost passion for it and well into years of having suicidal thoughts frequently. The only time I ever sought help was when I first started having them when I first started college, and they just kicked me out for being high risk and everything cascaded into failure from there.

Eventually I'll finish something. Eventually I'll focus. I'm getting a screening for ADHD because said boomer father has it and never got my screened as a kid because of course he didn't.

I have lived below poverty line for 30 years and I found out 2 days ago that 5 year of it were inflicted by my own blood so that they could buy their third house while I struggle to find work and eat rice once a day.

At least now you know what mistakes not to repeat. The most important asset you have is yourself, the 2nd is your family. That's why certain ethnic groups are doing so well for themselves.

It is easy for you. You need to replicate the conditions that led to your father getting access to cheap housing. But the entire world wants to move to the United States so that will never happen.

This is the story of the United States, unless you can buy a lot of land and quickly develop it you are screwed. The ideal situation for this board would be to engage in what amounts to massive racketeering and discrimination which the Federal Government has outlawed. So you will never be able to own anything and the system is set up that way.

One legal means that we could all benefit from the appreciation of property prices would be to pool our money in some sort of land corporation and all pledge a certain amount of money for shares to continuously buy new properties that we could all occupy for "rent" payments back to the collective that would be used to pay for more property. It could function similarly to a timeshare arrangement but it might be difficult to get enough money for the endeavor unless everyone were to contribute adequately. If we were to structure it properly it would lead to those with the highest stake in the game towards a house getting one sooner while the punters would be placed on the bottom of the list.

Well that's pretty much our only option legally. The government at every single level controls land and housing in such a way that structuring any sort of cooperative/communal/joint ownership in a way that doesn't involve some sort of chicanery almost impossible.

Shit field. Automation is going to reduce the need for legal services and it is coming to their field first in the paralegal levels. Mid-level attorneys are getting squeezed next and opening your own practice is dying due to simplifications from small-claims court and binding arbitration. Arbitration is going to gut the legal profession if it continues unabated. Arbitrators also tend to be managerial level personnel from non legal professions.

Based. at least you understand the significance of multi-generational wealth for your own children - this is what separates successful families from the plebian class. The boomer scum's embrace of hedonism at the expense of their genetic successors' well-being is truly disgusting.

The best part is that the plebs have been conditioned to actually DEFEND this kek. - as if this wasn't seen as an outright responsibility for decades prior

If you die you die, 160k is enough to neck rope over anyway at least you got to go out shooting rebels in the middle of buttfuck africa. If you survive you get a new life and a leg up.
