The opportunity cost of having a job during a bull market isn’t worth it desu

>> No.13744585

The job hedges against you doing something stupid and losing all your money due to the constant income stream with paychecks. That and benefits such as health and life insurance. However if you feel you'd never do anything stupid and blow up your portfolio and you feel you can pay for your own benefits out of pocket, you very well may be better off staying at home.

You should be ashamed

>> No.13744640

>>13744585
Yeah, I live with my parents. So I don't need benefits. The plan was to go back to school this fall. They kind of got tired of me sitting at home so pressured me into looking for a job. And I can't tell them I day trade and make X amount per day, because it's not steady like that. But every so often you miss out on a trade and it's a whole summer's worth of wagecucking. I also wanted to get out of the house and learn some new skills. But after the first day I'm already feeling like fuck this so goddamn hard. I don't want to be a bitch though

1. find your best trading hours (in your case it sounds like days)
2. get a comfy job at night (security, or nurse assistant)
3. sacrifice a little sleep
4. ????
5. Profit
Not that hard to find something that suits you anon. Stop making excuses to be an underachieving loser. Nonetheless your current job is shit and has no longevity as a career, but you still can’t just trade and not work. Investments can always go side ways and it’s not good to be a would have could have type of guy.

The secret is to get investments that reliably produce passive income. Having a few million dollars managed well, will supply you a lifetime of NEETdom.

This is exactly how I felt during the 17-18 run. Walking out of a job to trade shitcoins isn't really advisable, bull is temporary, your job seems expendable though.

>> No.13745331

Job provides extra fiat to accumulate cryptos. A lot of gains are going to come just by waiting. Better to have some income to throw into cryptos while we wait for the next golden bull run

you should've worked when we were in bear markets.

get yourself a decent smartphone and cellural so you can trade at work with battery-pack provided. im sure you can keep an eye of the bst trades among the day. max your hours.

ironically my physique will look worse from this job. Getting jacked is one of the few things I've done right. Manual labor gigs don't build muscle, just strength/endurance. But they kill your energy in the gym.
