Waging has destroyed my youth, my virility. My wonder and dreams of life. My passions, my soul, my curiosity for the world. I am but a mere husk of my former self- an empty shell sleep-walking through life. Dreading the time I have to wake up and wage and repeat the cycle all over again

[Anonymous No.13080650]

Surprisingly it doesn't work like that for roasties, they wage, gossip and travel the world in 20s

Got a trade job for 6 months, felt like I was getting dumber everyday. By the end of it, I came to the conclusion that I wanted to do something creative. Thing is, I'm almost 32. So now what?

Well, you have to bullshit obviously. Just say that you want to engage in self-study in order to update your skills, although for this instance it would be a good idea to have some proof of that activity.

Or any other plausible explanation really, you're dealing with HR. They bullshit you, you have to bullshit back.

OR, you could just leave North America and work in a continent where those gaps aren't imediately a red flag, like Europe for example.

>>13084588

Curiously enough, I'm now going to bed at 5 AM. This schedule started to kick enough about a month and a half ago... and it sucks.

The thing about being a NEET is that you have to be disciplined in order to make good use of your free time, or else you'll reach a point where all weeks will start looking the same and you'll wonder where the fuck did the time go.

In short, you're right. However, being a disciplined and productive NEET is definitely God tier.

You should consider installing a program like flux and never install bulbs emitting white light in your computer room in case you have problems falling asleep. Really helped me to at least get back a normal sleeping pattern.

[Anonymous No.13084798]

>>13084762

I already use flux for many many years and the light bulb I use here is somewhat dim and with a really warm color.

I just need to bite the fucking pain and wake up when my alarm clock rings.

>Women to Suffer Depression
Everyone gets sad sometimes. Its just that women are more likely to think that sadness = depression. When you go to a shrink and tell them you're depressed they don't actually test if you're depressed or not, they diagnose you with depression and get you on antidepressants. Once you start taking antidepressants and stop taking them you really will be depressed.

Being a massive man-baby is better than waging at a shit-tier job you don't make significant money in, while still being too ugly and too poor to get a woman, and knowing that the laws and shit that affect you and pull you out of the power-process in its entirety will never be meaningfully influenced by you, and the world will just keep getting worse, and leave you behind while neo-liberal elite colonize Mars with their automated robot workers and leave the Earth to fester and rot.
Just think of it like this, when the bombs finally do drop, would you rather be in bed, comfy before you get fried? Or would you rather be at work, clock-watching and trying to understand the conversation that your coworker Felipe is having in Spanish two cubicles over?

>pension
US Social Security pays an average of $1,400 per month.

But out of that, $134 goes towards Medicare (old person health insurance).

That $1,200 has to pay for rent (or property tax if you own a home), food, any medical care Medicare doesn't cover, in-home nursing care, utilities, and car or public transit expenses.

Meanwhile median retirement savings is around $40,000. Total. That has to last for a decade or more of retirement.

Most retired wagies die in miserable poverty.

That said, if you have your shit together, you're right. Boomers exemplify this but it's not unheard of for people to retire as millionaires thanks to home values, savings/investments, or actual pensions.

But the ~15 million millionaires in the US don't complain all that much. It's the little people grinding away in poverty.
