Bro just register a business called "Shark Investments" or something fucking gay and edgy and tell them you were a sole day trader and investment manager, salary being whatever + "significant commission". If they ask why you stopped doing it just say "you know how the economy is" and "it's about timing, I got out at the right time". Basically fellate yourself. HR roasties love confidence.

this. interview psychology has not advanced one bit in the last 100 years and they all think you're unemployable because youre not employed.
i'm reading cracking the coding interview and it's mystifying how these companies fellate themselves over rejecting amazing candidates because they struggled on a problem in an interview

This fucking sucks for guys like me with close to $600,000 in liquid assets (not real estate but things I could sell right now), no debt and college educated, but completely unable to get a job that pays more than $35k a year because I have no connections. My salary ends up feeling like fucking peanuts but I don't have quite enough saved to retire so it's depressing as fuck. A year or 2 vacation living on dividends could totally fix this but now I'm afraid that'll make me unemployable and in 18 years I'll be broke and homeless.

I hate this shit.

I dont fucking know ask the boomer corporate shill who bins your resume the moment they say a gap longer than a weekend vacation. Bankster kikes cant handle the independent sovereign man that can quit on a dime to live off their savings and see the world.

even if you could get a job but lived off your savings that means you don't have work ethic and you're free from the system. employers want slaves chained to their job
