still havent made it.
well thats not the full story, i was on my way to making it until i got divorced 3 years ago, ended up moving to a new state where i now work minimum wage, live alone in a tiny apartment, have no friends, no contact with family or any sort of career prospects.
im doomed right? theres no way back from here? $600 to my name

missing it like the majority of people. i wasnt unaware of what was going on with crypto or the markets in general, i just felt like i was participating in the upside of the move through property ownership and as the years passed by felt like it was enough to be casually gaining from it.
i am no longer a property owner.

Why would a divorce force you to settle for minimum wage & make you incapable of making friends or keeping contact with your family? Are you really that retarded?

This is actually a good suggestion. You might not have much here, but on the other hand, you don't have much keeping you here!! Once you get to somewhere like SE Asia, you can find jobs teaching English or whatever pretty easily (I know from experience) for beer money and cheap lodging. A couple years ago you could get 2 bedroom apartments in Tibet for $200/mo or less

Shit sucks fren. Try to unfuck your head first. Try to have one positive thing in your life to focus on when you're not working. Could be anything, being in nature, exercise, meditation, reading the classics from the library, literally anything you could do consistently to not feel miserable. Look for a better job, make yourself essential there, and slowly rebuild your stacks. No one said it would be easy, but what other choice do you have?

I just turned 40 a few weeks ago. I know you are supposed to pretend like you are above it, but it stings desu. I only landed my first real middle-class job a few weeks prior too. It's hard to say though, I would hustle to find something better before the recession, but no I don't think it's too late. I'm personally trying to find beauty in all the small parts of life, or some shit. But I don't know. Just two years prior I was hanging out at the beach with a bunch of 20 year-olds and still having fun, but you know that ended after hitting on one of them. Anyway, what I'm getting at is things can still change, but the odds are less on your side at this point. You can beat the odds with hard work though, it's an exceptional rather than the and most don't bother, but it does feel good once you finally try. Go down swinging brother.

Turned 40 a month ago. Made $5m this last run from about $25k. Round tripped half of it, taxes took a chunk from me, and had a “friend” who worked for me steal $250k. Absolutely hate everything about crypto, NFTs, every piece of shit person in the space. But having the best sex of my life with a straight up stunner (out of my league desu), so I don’t give a flying fuck about any of that. My advice is to find some tail and do some drugs and travel. You don’t need much money to enjoy life, mate.

Not gonna lie, if I were you and were totally unsatisfied with my life and accomplishments, I'd probably kill myself. Life sucks, and not everybody can be astronauts. Some just born, breathe a little, and then die. Not everybody is destined to have a great story or great adventures. I hope somehow you find peace at least. I'm about to turn 38 myself, schizoid, no woman, no kids, no job, extreme fatigue, dysthymia. It gets harder to laugh, but sometimes I still can. But I have brothers and a sister, mom still lives, and a few friends. I hope you find the motivation not to give up. Good luck, stranger
