>?besides moving because I don't have money to do that
If money is the only reason you don't want to move... really... like if you are ok leaving your family, friends, and culture but money is the only thing stopping you... then I would so everything I could to gtfo. Hitch hike, board a train illegally, get a bicycle and just pedal for weeks. Anything to move. You can move for free. It'll suck, temporarily, but it's possible and in the end you will be so glad you did.

But to answer your question, just put it in bitcoin. Don't focus on maximizing, because that's what we're all trying to do. Focus on what you believe in and what takes your passion.

Stay in bitcoin for at least 5 years and don't sell. We're leaving the days of the dollar as the reserve currency and entering the dawn of a new age. Seriously. This is like the first man who discovered gold. So go all out on bitcoin.

>earn more at the day job
So the one single thing that helped me the most in life was reading the book "think and grow rich". Give it a look, it'll help you far more than one post on here.
But that said, I suggest you give more value than you're paid. If you make 50$ per hour, then give the value of 100$ per hour. Once you hit that new level, increase your value. You will make your manager's jaws drop and they will feel so lucky to have you. All the power will be in your hands. Demanding raises will be a breeze.

>how did I end up with so much money
Started poor, moved to LA and took two jobs and worked very, very hard and long hours; then invested stocks, then in crypto. Then started working from home as a programmer. Kinda just built up.

Dream. Unironically dream.

I knew I wanted to be a millionaire as I sat alone watching TV and drinking beet in my small flat at 19. I had no idea how I could do it. I even doubted myself. But I just started thinking "I really, really want to be a millionaire. I want luxury. I want it SO BADLY" and told myself I would figure it out at all costs.

No I'm renting. France introduced new lockdown measures and I wanted to escape. I have a friend here in the alps. It's a small quiet town. A comfy getaway. Only two cops work in the surrounding 50km. So. I'm pretty much left alone here.

No I'm not from France.

The source of my wealth is working as a Systems Administrator at first, when I was younger. That gave me my first seed of 30k$ at age 23. Which I invested and continued working. I'm 29 now and I'm finally worth over a million.

>Redpill me on real estate
Don't buy cash right now, but do get a fixed rate mortgage. This is because the dollar is about to inflate like CRAZY. So getting a fixed rate mortgage now will be a dream come true after a few years. You'll be stuck paying peanuts for a mortgage and could even pay it off well in advance effortlessly.

Yeah, I keep it a secret and dress normal, but it's usually:
--Bloodthirst greed, they want to eat me

--follow me like a puppy

As for sex, I haven't had either more nor less as I've gotten richer. But I do find my standards have grown. Idk if that is just a thing with age or money.

But yeah if you wanna get laid, money is not stopping you. Most girls don't care and women look at so much more than any one trait in a man. They're not like us, you know. We just want a sexy loyal woman. They want *everything*. So even if one trait is missing or weak, they are still looking at everything else. You can get laid.

dogecoin

I'm not certain, but I can clearly see a solid use case in my mind where doge is transacted either like silver, or dollars if they enable lightning networking. The fact it inflates forever is key. Also elon musk believes in it, even if it does seem ironic. I think there is an unignorably high chance that doge will breech one dollar per coin. Since it's so cheap right now, it's safe to take the risk.

I bought 1,000,000 doge just for fun. If I'm right, then I just made my easiest million ever; if not, then there isn't much risk, because I don't see it crashing ever.

I rent. I would rather have a few hundred thousand tied up in bitcoin than in a flat in france. So I stick to small flats in nice areas and live cheap. Once I break 10m I might buy something nice finally.

I did own a condo in the USA for 155k$ however. Sold it in 2018.

It's funny, I have explained this to normies but they absolutely do not understand. It pains me. Even when talking to leasing agents, it's always the same old "If you have so much, then why don't you just buy something?"

[Anonymous No.23704596]

>>23704542
Yes. I think it'll replace gold. I also think there is a high chance bitcoin will be the world currency if lightning catches on.

But even if not, even if it just replaces gold, then bitcoins will soar to what is now $500k. So if you knew that, if you knew for certain that bitcoin would reach 500k each... then what would you do today?

I almost perfectly agree with the winklevoss twins. If you want to learn more about how I reached this conclusion, check out their article:

I live very cheap. I mean I didn't even own a car for the past 3 years until a girl I know pushed me to buying one. Even then, I bought a brand-new car for 13k€ with all taxes, fees, and a 6 year warranty included for free. That's it. 13k out the door and now I have my car for 6 years.

So I've really got a special mentality. My clothes have no brands nor names. I splurge on certain things like, I always have the newest and maximum iphone. But that's because my life depends on it, I use it so much every day that it becomes worth it.

>are you selling a fraction of your btc every now and then?
Yeah, unfortunately yes. As little as possible but sometimes I need it. I'm tempted to just time lock it for 5 years. Actually I am about to do that.

>what % yearly?
Like 1%.

>do you have any passive income/investments?
Yeah, one. Nets me about 3000 monthly. The rest of my money is when I work, which fluctuates a lot. I freelance.

I used to have a bitcoin trading bot. Didn't make much, but it was fun. It made on average 8$ per hour :D It was one of my first projects I did, that built my confidence. The money it made was good, but the real benefit it had on my life was showing me that "no, you don't need to work a normal job anymore". It changed my mentality. If you have ideas like this -- take the chance. Do it.

You are halfway there anon. That is exactly how I think. Except with information and my own, personal thinking, I reach levels of certainty that I feel foolish NOT to invest in something like bitcoin.

So that is my situation. I know so well, so confidently, that it will hit that value. I have no choice but to buy it up. My hand is forced.

I've taken a lot of time, over the years, to study and understand bitcoin and how it works. The protocol. Encryption. My confidence is rooted in my practical knowledge.

[Anonymous No.23705173]

>>23705045
So when I hear people say that, I think they're talking about either assets or government incentive. Like a dollar used to be backed by gold. You could pop a dollar down on a desk at a bank and they'd hand you over some gold. You could call this "gold-backed currency". Since the 70s however this link was broken and now the dollar is backed only by the will of the government. Which is still a big deal. The USA will not stand idle and watch the dollar fall without a fight. They'll change policies, print money, raise or lower taxes, start wars, use the military, etc... they'll do whatever they have to in order to keep the dollar stable because it's the blood of the state.

You can "back" anything with anything, pretty much.

I would disagree however, because bitcoin is backed by an algorithm that is out of the control of any one man or government. It's backed by math and the will of every user who uses bitcoin. This backing is real and is what made it worth billions. So the argument "it's not backed by anything" just don't stand up anymore. I think these men, what they really mean to say is "it's not backed by *the government*". Which is true. The government will not send a military force (yet) in order to save bitcoin. It just does its own thing, completely freely, under the rule of its own protocol and the users who use it.

I don't think it's a logical reason to ignore bitcoin. Just ask yourself: Who do you trust more with your life money? The US Government or an untouchable mathematical algorithm? For me it's obvious.

Hm that's all I can think of for now. At this point there is so much disinformation out there that it's best to just stick to the sources... read the code itself, read the raw information and graphs. Play with the command line. Read how SHA-256 works and all the other algorithms bitcoin uses. Just get to know it.

Twitter used to be great but it's pretty pozzed now.

>do you think it will drop below 10k ever again?
Not likely, but if it does, then it won't last long. I can kinda see one (unlikely) scenario where the USD sharply inflates next year due to covid measures. In this case, bitcoin might crash very briefly, like for one year or so, before surging to levels higher than now. But no, it's only going up. Even if you buy now and it takes a dip, just hold on for the right. It'll recover and exceed your purchase price soon. Don't ever panic sell.

Um if you want dollars, then just hold dollars.

Because those trading bots can built up a big trading history; I know, I did it.

Outside of that use case, there is no reason to use stablecoins. If you want the benefit of crypto, the just use bitcoin.

If you can't let your friends fail, then your friends will be metaphorical chains on you. Holding you down like dead-weights. Your success will only happen if ALL of your loved ones are successful too. No. Fuck that. Their problem their suffering. Suffer your own problems. You'll have more power to help others AFTER you become a success than right now anyway. Cut throats and get where you need to be.

I'm pretty much in the same mindset as you, and I'm currently in the process of finding ways to have passive income. This is crucial if I ever want to have time to do shit myself instead of having to slave away hours during the week.

So I'm pretty curious to know you achieved that yourself.

None. Bitcoin only.

I'm watching doge however.

>>23706636
All altcoins don't have a viable use case that distinguishes themselves from bitcoin, except MAYBE this one. The inflation schedule is what gives it a use case. Unlike bitcoin, where the first men who own it, the super-hodlrs, are incredibly billionaires, this will never happen with doge because they'll be washed with the inflation. However, as it inflates, the rate of inflation as a percent will get lower. For example, if there are a million doge in circulation, then inflating it 100k every minute is a lot. But if there are a trillion in circulation, then inflating it 100k is not such a big impact. And continues to get smaller.

My vision of doge is based on global adoption as a spending money. Where bitcoin (basically) replaces gold, doge replaces silver. I say doge instead of litecoin because litecoin is functionally the same as bitcoin, just using a different POW and retarget. Doge is based on litecoin except this key difference, the inflation schedule.

So litecoin is not going to be the next "silver", it'll be doge.

There is no deadweight in doge protocol, as a LOT of alts have so much deadweight preventing them from reaching global adoption.

Elon Musk is so smart it appears magical to normal men like me; even when he's being ironic, it's important to listen to. He's a literal super-genius and can perceive the future far more clearly than we can.

Doge is ironic. It's an internet meme. I envision this helping it's success because I am looking at american+hollywood culture. The world would eat it up.

Lightning could happen on the doge network, allowing global adoption. The 60-second confirmation would actually tremendously benefit LN because you wouldn't need so much time gap between nodes.

That's all I can think of now. If I remember more, I'll quote you again.

>but then my dad died
He should have had life insurance; He is a man with a family. He had a duty to have life insurance. He failed, so his family must suffer the consequences of his terrible decisions.

You are stopping the laws of nature from functioning by trying to save your family from the consequences of their bad choices and holding it up like a duty. You are not glorious. You are a fool being exploited. They are giving you glory because you are saving them, but in reality you're doing nothing to benefit the world. Just putting failures on life support. People must be free to fail. It's nature, it's how the world works. If you can't stand to watch your friends and family fail, then you will NEVER BE A SUCCESS.

>>23706922
um I don't want to talk about that one in particular. But I can give you my story of the time I wrote a bitcoin trading bot.

I got fired form my job in 2014 and had a lot of free time. I knew how to code. I was just getting into bitcoin. I saw that coinbase and bitstamp had API's so I thought, hmm, I think I can do something here... and so I did. I wrote up a little bot and it worked. It was simple but it made me 8$ per hour. that is a LOT. Running around the clock 24:7.

When I got fired, I remember feeling kind of worried. I was always optimistic and aggressive. But it hurt me to lose my good job. I thought I needed a job. Then completely on whim, I wrote up something like this and saw it work, it gave me confidence.

Oh also, right after I got fired, I couldn't afford my life anymore in Los Angeles and had to move out of my apartment stat. My apartment alone was thousands of dollars per month. I had to find a new, high-paying job instantly or break it. So I broke it and I went to Ukraine for 3 months because life is so incredibly cheap out there. Especially then. It was like 300 usd per month for a flat. A nice flat. And so this is where I wrote my bot.

Yup I got the "don't be afraid to take risks" part. I know I need to get free time to get rested and bored to be able to do stuff like the bot you did, I already have my plan laid out.

I'm just thinking how to get to that point while ideally not being financially naked when I quit my job, hence the passive income question.

But I understand if you don't want to go over specifics, I suppose it's not as effective if everyone knows about it; didn't hurt to try my luck though.

I am a millionaire. Just 600k in this one particular bitcoin address.

So, this is an interesting post. Because this is exactly the sort of thing that separates me from other men. Other men, from what I can see, would actually take value in posts like this. But I don't care what others think of me. If you love me nor hate me. All that matters, for me, is that I am right.

This anon mocks me for suggesting a meme coin will prevail. It's "so silly, so goofy" that it must never work, right? However, despite any ridicule I have, I still think doge will prevail. This is because I have thought about it and I understand how economics and crypto work. I know the human impact. I made my decision. Whether my decision sounds silly to someone else, means nothing to me. I still think it.

You can build a complete reddit-like consensus here, spitting on doge all night long. I will still cherish my thoughts until I learn something new or someone actually teaches me something I didn't know before.

I hope you guys understand this, the ones who are trying to be a success. This is the hard part. Believe in yourself. This is the advice I would tell my younger self: YOU ARE RIGHT. Even when you are surrounded by people mocking you and going the other direction, you are RIGHT you are NOT MAD.

Remember that, guys.

He’s not going into specifics because he’s larping as someone who knows shit about money. It’s a common cope among people who have a sudden windfall like getting rich off bitcoin. If he really had a 3k monthly passive income, he could easily have been vague:
>i bought a stake in a small business
>i do something online shopping related
>i don’t want to talk about it because it’s not legal everywhere
Etc etc. the problem is this fag doesn’t have a fucking clue what a 3k/month passive investment looks like, so he can’t even handwave

>I'm just thinking how to get to that point while ideally not being financially naked when I quit my job
This is the part I'm trying to show you. Either I explained it poorly, or you missed it. hehe. But I'll try again...

So I lost my job (problem) and was hemorrhaging money (fear+problem) and I did not like this problem. So in the very moment it happened, I reflected on my situation. I decided to go to Ukraine to stop the hemorrhage (solution found instantly) and then, paying so very little every month, I had the time to sit and think about how to find a new job.

In the midst of that DESIRE for a new job, I had my eyes wide open. In my play time, I discovered the API, which led to an IDEA, which led to making money, which led to not needing a job, which led to changing my world view completely.

This is what you said
>while ideally not being financially naked when I quit my job
But remember I was *in that place*, I was FIRED. Spending thousands per months on a LA lifestyle. The solution came to me then. It came to me in the exact place you are trying to never be in.

Your solution would be different. It's not going to be a trading bot in Ukraine. But you're not going to find it with your current mentality. If you can't see the spark I'm trying to share, then read "think and grow rich", this book explains it better than I can.

If you're looking for an instruction manual on passive income, then I would be doing it myself. The instructions is the mentality. This open-eyes, optimistic, somewhat-feral and childlike mentality. That is how you discover passive income. It's only ever discovered. Learn how ideas work. If you can't get it from this post, see the book for more info. This is the hardest part in breaking normal men into rich men, is this spark.

One was a government aide program that was available in Sweden. I literally moved to Sweden to benefit from it. I lived there a year. Earned maybe 30k usd from the Swedish government for nothing. Tack svenska :D

So one was that bot I keep mentioning.

Another was stocks and hedge funds. I put a lot in at one point and was making money on interest each month.

While in Sweden, I traded bitcoin with locals at a high premium. Like 10%. A few thousands here, a few there. Ok that's not really passive. But holy fuck it was easy. And they always came to me at my apartment, I never even left home.

While you have a point, they're really two options:
1) He doesn't want anyone being able to identify him by giving any kind of clues (even while being vague),
2) He's bullshitting, could even try to play knowledgeable to fish for people to talk to him in private and financially fuck them over.

Either options I don't really care, he made some good points and I'm taking the opportunity to discuss stuff that could be useful.

I got your point anon, I've already had that eye opening moment. I already know what I have to do and know when to do it. The only regret I have is not having realized all that sooner but oh well.

You know that used to be something I think about a lot, but I just don't think about it anymore. Even if it does cause a little boom, it'll be brief and bitcoin will recover. The value of bitcoin is so much larger than tether at this point.

I wouldn't worry. If there is a little dip, then just hold through it, don't panic sell. I wouldn't even be surprised if bitcoin is unshaken by tether popping. The USD is about to get seriously inflated remember. tether is peered to the USD. So.... each stimulus the US government releases is washing tether also.

oh. um. Hm. That's an interesting question I did not expect.

The first one that comes to mind is 50 shades of grey. I read it a long time ago before it was a film. It taught me a lot about women and shattered my old ideas of how women work. It helped me understand them and understand what girls desire (sexually speaking) most in a man.
How to win friends and influence people was the catalyst that turned me into an altruist.
Taking LSD. Ok that's not a book, but it also shaped my life a good deal. I took it alone in my bedroom and just meditated on it for hours. I thought about my problems, fears, desires, etc and it gave a new perspective.
The subtle art of not giving a fuck was good. I needed to hear it.
I remember reading a book on the monarchy of Sweden, learning about their old kings. The mindset of a king.
Code geass, even more so. It's an anime but they brilliantly teach the mindset of a king.
"Anger management for dummies" helped me a lot. It teaches you ideas that go beyond just anger. I run circles around other humans now because I have so much control on my emotions and they don't

It's all so random. I pick up stuff all over the place. But yeah I guess these are the ones with the biggest impact.

>>23707770

>>23707786
I like your question. I would focus on eliminating expenses first. If you're paying a big amount of rent, get creative and try to stop it.

One example, of many, you can do for free is just getting a mortgage on a house with some bedrooms. Then rent out each bedroom. The rent from all the rooms will pay the mortgage. And now you have a free place to live and slowly gaining money each month.

Once you minimized your expenses, then all you gain is yours. cherish ideas. Ideas are worth more than gold. Any fool can sell his labor away to a company by the hour, but a clever man captures his ideas.

And stay optimistic. Don't let people discourage you. People will try to discourage you, evil exists, learn to see it.

I bought ETH at $2, started scrypt mining back in 2013. Made a ton of mistakes, but learnt a lot along the way.

I was a btc maxi for a long time, only dabbling in alts for the gains. Despite being in crypto for so long I had never even really looked into xrp until recently.

While it doesn't quite align with the libertarian dream for crypto, the more I look into it, it actually seems to me that it could be something that's adopted globally by banks.

I guess I just think that it's more likely that governments would ban bitcoin before they let it take over as the reserve currency.

I like the way Sam from To the Life Boats put it as 'riding on the coat tails of evil'. Xrp isn't the crypto utopia we all envisioned when we first discovered crypto, but ultimately it may be what's used.

I'm not the best person to ask, sorry. I have been very lucky in finding work and my skillset is hyperfocused on bitcoin, which puts me in a certain easy-to-fill niche. There is always demand for my skills.

I did talk to a hotshot programmer once in the past and he suggested focusing on bleeding-edge technologies if you want to make the most money. Like neural learning, AI, etc. I guess I would put crypto in the list because it's in so much demand, and that demand will soon surge.

From my experience programming, you learn the basics first. So in C++ you have completed the basics once you learn how classes work. After you finish the chapter on classes, you can basically do anything now. Then choose a specialty and move on from there. At that point you should start applying for jobs. But really I'm not the best person to ask, look for the occasional thread with a skilled programmer for the best advice.

I don't think it'll happen by their choice. They didn't choose gold either. It's just the best available option. The moment something better turns up ,you must use it or be left in the dust. Government will not have a choice in the matter.

Ok so I read your whole post and I believe the mistake youre making is wishful thinking.

Yeah I lived in Paris the past 2 years, it's full of niggers arabs and jews. The few french who are there have a hazed look in their eyes and they keep to themselves, unfriendly to foreigners.

I chose France because I'm racially French, I wanted to be around people like me, who look like me, and so I have a sense of identity. I'm an American by birth and was real tired of being nothing more than "white" or a default race that is fun to batter. Here, at least, there is a memory of where my ancestors came from.

A big reason I came was to help politically. Because I know what it's like to have no identity and live in a multiracial experiment like the USA, I want to save France from falling to this same fate. In small examples, I let my friends say whatever they want to me. You would be surprised what political ideas French men have, but are unable to say to anyone. By simply being a non-judgmental ear to talk to, they can speak freely and appreciate that. I'm also blatant and set examples; I leave an impact on everyone I touch, because the French are so obsessed with what others think about them. But I am obsessed with being right. Respectful, but right. They're not used to that. So my example has changed the lives of many, and I'm sure it ripples outward into their friends to and so on.

I think one small candle can light an entire room of darkness, revealing every little detail. I just want to be a candle in France. Like, to make the world a much better place before I die. I think my efforts are most effective here.

I also beam success and optimism IRL. Despair bounces off me like ping pong balls. People quickly find their ideas that stop them from fulfilling their dreams, are actually not so strong after all.

>I don't think it'll happen by their choice. They didn't choose gold either. It's just the best available option. The moment something better turns up ,you must use it or be left in the dust. Government will not have a choice in the matter.
I actually hope this is the case because I think it's the best for humanity overall long-term. I'm having a hard time accepting that governments would secede control of currency rather attempt to institute their own from, or use one that's been partnering with banks for the past ~5 years.

>ripple just sucks.
This is the same thing I heard years ago when its was worth just a few cents that prevented me from even touching it when i could have made massive gains. It's not an argument. Again, I would rather btc reign supreme, but I think it's prudent to hedge on what I would like to happen, vs. what I think actually has a distinct possibility on happening.

Ripple is working with banks. That they're a real company with a super defined niche. I would love to hear why I'm wrong.

I'm not here to have my feelings coddled or my opinions validated. There's so few genuine people in this space it's hard to find reliable sources that aren't shilling. I'm just a truth seeker.

I'm single. Seriously searching for a wife. Been with many women but not a manwhore. Nothing shameful.

>i find it hard to keep the mentality you have when the
I know what you mean. This applied to me big time when I was younger. You can solve this by learning to understand women. Once you do, then you can peer their self-interests with your self-interests.

One key thing I eventually understood about women is that they have unlimited desire. Unlike men. Men have very limited desire. This is because we are satiable. Women are not satiable. The moment you give a woman what she wants, she feels fleetingly happy, then quickly wants something more. Or better. Or so on...

You can then harness your love for your girlfriend and tap into her endless desire to help you reach your fullest potential. Because she will shatter the satisfaction in you. Now that you are no longer satisfied, you will start desiring more and accomplishing more.

Satisfaction is nice, but it's also dangerous. Too much satisfaction leaves you standing still, happily. Like a homeless man without problems -- he is way too satisfied. If he was not satisfied, he would start trying very hard to stop being homeless.

That's just one example how women are useful. If you don't do it right, then you'll just be frustrated with her and she'll drag you down. The key is to really understand women.

A book I suggest is "men are from mars, women are from venus" and also MGTOW forums and youtube channels. I'm not mgtow, I very badly want to marry, but the mgtow guys have lots of brilliant insight to women.

This is what I've come to (except living out of a car) due to taking minimalism to it's logical conclusion.

It's a very odd place to be. Voluntary homelessness (with savings) is like financial invincibility.

However, because your relative needs are so small, there's nothing left to do.

It's like a comical but technically true version of financial independence.

Because a blockchain is not necessary for this type of settlement. You can accomplish this very easily -- actually more easily, by just using a traditional database. It's a misuse of the technology and preys upon ignorance and buzzwords to connect corporate banks to each other. It's wasteful,not innovative. It will not survive the long run.

It's basically like trying to sell a toaster to a guy in the 90s because it has a modem inside. It might have worked but only because everyone was so ignorant at the time. Once several years pass, the bankers will start to be knowledgeable of bitcoin and blockchain and what it's really used for and soon scrap ripple. There is absolutely no future.

tbqh I think you're right, but mainly in the short-term. I think there is a small fortune to be made by trading popular alts against bitcoin. Not trying to maximize your dollar holding -- but by trying to maximize your bitcoin holding. If you want to day trade, this is probably the best way.

>Take LSD.
coming from a fan of both LSD and your thread, "take LSD" is always a shitty response. I've met people with a naturally breathtaking scope of thought who never needed to do that, and I've met a sea of pointless people who think tripping made them into something special when in reality they all simply NPC'd themselves from one fashion to another. It is a pointless response that reduces you to the value of a drug epiphany that will likely have very little real world effect on a person's place on the peasant-to-king gauntlet. If you go around acting high and mighty about doing it, and tell people "take LSD" (which translates roughly to "hurr stupid pleb, take LSD, and only then PERHAPS you'll be capable of comprehending how correct my argument- which I do not currently DEIGN to bolster, for lack of need- in fact was! HAH!"), I hope they do take it, and realize that the real magic is the hodling and that this /biz/ thread was just a motivational hodling session hosted by a larpy narcissist.

it does, it really does brother. and i can say the same. my best days on earth were ALL on nofap. mutually exclusive if not very close to it. in my eyes it is the path out of poverty and unsurprisingly i have been a poor piece of shit in the past 3 years despite graduating from Stern and I blame it all on my fleshly weakness and inability to overcome my desire for indulgence. but i am sick of myself and my state of living so I truly believe that the rest of 2020 is my moment to be free finally. and this is what i've been telling myself through every single streak and failure but it feels different this time around and i think it may be due to the current global and politicla atmosphere. i am assuming that you are not christian but every time i've relapsed, i've been experiencing serious serious pain and suffering both mentally and physically. my nerve pain comes back from my injuries come back in full force and i am constantly doubting myself, my interactions with people constantly contain negative aspects. but only a few days into abstaining from sexual immorality, my pain disspiates, my mental state gets lifted... almost as if God is telling me... this is the path, this is the way. obviously i'm not trying to convert you, i just want to validate your observation that nofap really does work wonders. thanks a lot man.. truly. i gained a lot of insight from reading your responses and i feel validated in choosing my path the path of righteousness. perhaps this, besides marriage, could be the next goal in your life that is worthy of pursuit now that you've achieved so much financially. regardless, God bless you brother.

The issue for me is that my old, sober motivation never came back. It's like my baseline of motivation fell a few notches and never recovered to the pre-adderall level.

Just be careful. Be able to answer the question "why" every single time you pop a pill. If you don't have a reason, or only have hedonism, then you shouldn't take it. it sounds like you're monitoring your health. Maybe you're fine. I'm not anti-drug by any means.

Admittedly some of the use is to cope with this, but it really fucking helps. With you being from the USA, imagine the values from of a conservative small-town mentality in a conservative socialist childproofed hellhole where people think raising workers is the good thing but I'm wrong for doing it for myself without despairing over job security/locking yourself up on mortgages for the rest of my life the second you have the otherwise most amount of money you'll ever have till promotions/retirement at 65 and that's where I live.

No, I would not trust them. Keep them in your wallet. The interest there is trivial anyway. In 5 years you will see serious gains by just holding.
