I traveled a bit of the usa in my earlier years doing the hobo bit. it was not as fun at the time as it is looking back on it. I made decent money in crypto and investments in the last 5yrs and ive had a few gf's tho nothing ever serious. My most serious gf was when I was a hobo and we were together for 2yrs before she and I split for multiple reasons including her getting heavy into drugs and than wanting to move back to her parents to get clean. We still talk thru email and keep eachother updated on our lives. I think my biggest regret is I didnt take school more serious and left school with a 2.0 gpa which is horrible. I could have applied myself and probably got at least a 2.5 to 2.8 but I just fucked around and skipped a ton with my one friend.

Hey anon. I'm one of those that studied hard, traveled hard, partied hard etc. Medical doctor, ENT specialist with a subspecialty in facial fracture and endoscopic sinus surgery. Live in Swedenstan so the salary is not the best, around 100k USD but yeah way higher than most here. Married to a decent 7/10 milf and have a beautiful smart daughter.

Always been kind of a popular guy with many friends. Btw I'm the king of manlets at 5'6 but charismatic and confident. Had 3 serious relationships and a couple of more flings.

Now all of the above sounds more or less good and privileged. But I'm still unhappy. Daughter has a medical condition for the rest of her life. I feel scared, stressad and inadequate at work because of previous traumatic cases that could have prevented death, one of them a 2 year old child. None of my amazing previous experiences can undo the things I'm dealing with now. However I don't trust any one but myself. I make my own fate, that with good or bad cards in life. Life is struggle and struggle is life. If you are a whining faggot with no reallife problems except "derp i wana be millions", then I have bad news for you. I respect hard working people more than any other sleek millionaire fuckboi.

So no I don't have regrets. But I've made mistakes, and I'm trying to learn from them. And as much as I want, my daughter will always be sick, but being there for her is more important than any amount of money you can throw at me.

My mission is to smile at my deathbed knowing I did my best at all times.

I have a degree with a decent income (computer science math dual major) but didn't really put any effort into school, the generic smart enough to get As and Bs without much effort. Yeah wish I had put in more effort, would likely have a higher paying job but whatever. Biggest thing is to budget and work out, get into the habit now the longer you put it off the more difficult it will be to incorporate into your life. Bonus, try meditation as well that is the most recent thing I'm adding to my life. But I just started so haven't noticed benefits yet.

Most stuff in life is pretty easy, people are just to lazy. Everyone knows you should work out, keep a budget but are too lazy then wonder why they are fat and poor.

My biggest regret is being a degenerate. Lust is one of the deadly sins for a reason. I hurt a few people that I love dearly by failing to listen to my gut and my mind, and instead just succumbing to that basic animal-mode primal lust. Pathetic.

I did learn a lot from when my lust eventually exploded into reality and I could no longer ignore my sociopathic excusing of what I'd done. One thing I learned, and that I now regret, is that sometimes your most serious problems and character defects build up over time. They don't happen over night. They happen from ignoring or excusing them over years. It's like if you fail to water your crops, your good useful crops will wither and die and weeds take over. But now imagine a huge, disgusting weed that rats and spiders live inside grows huge because you just kept ignoring it and pretending like it wasn't a problem. This is what (figuratively) happened to me because I was a fucking degenerate in my mid-20's.

I guess my advice to my younger self would be "Please do not ignore your character defects and vices. Find a good Church and/or a good religious, spiritual mentor and when you have lustful or sinful urges, pray about it." That's something I'm still working on.

[Anonymous No.56780065]

If I had invested like I do now instead of buying new cars and shit when I was in my 20's, I'd be retired now.
Sure, my 20s would have been more boring, but the rest of my life would have been much better.

i'm 36. my only big regret is the period of my life from 17-22 i wasted as a NEET playing WoW. this was during the last recession. it took my dad going broke and dying of cancer for me to get my shit together.

i studied not enough in high school, and too much in college. it worked out ok. this period taught me how to work hard again but it was mostly driven by fear since i had no safety net as my family are dead and i was left nothing

i found my gf on an r9k thread in 2012 and we're still together. no regrets there.

What I regret is I really should've just quit that consulting job I hated and gone back for the CPA from the start. I do view the entire military foray as a waste of time. I know I could have achieved the same outcome without doing it, but I'm pretty sure I would not have, if that makes sense. So now I'm gonna be nearing 30 in a spot I could have been years ago. Should have just done the guard or something.
Other regrets. My casual sex phase in college. At the time I believed it was a good thing, but now I look back with disgust, there is no such thing as empty sex.
My first boss at the bank told me I should go fuck everyone to get it out of my system, but what actually happens is you get it in your system. I think it really harmed my ability to form relationships, it took a long time and a few failures to undo that damage.

[Anonymous No.56780817]

>>56780520
Agreed. Also living this sort of lifestyle puts you in a degenerate mindset where you start prioritizing lust/fucking random women over almost anything else. When you finally meet a girl you love and want to marry and have children with, your mind is already broken; trained to crave sex with other women/do everything it can to fuck other girls. It's a difficult mindset to break. Weening your brain off the "I need to seduce and fuck this hot girl I just met" mentality is very difficult. The coomer brain-rot is pervasive and switching to "I'm only going to fuck 1 woman for the rest of my life" mentality is not easy if you've been sleeping with multiple women every year.

>>56780702

I don't approve of this kind of thing for everyone, but maybe some guys/girls need to get it out of their system. The problem is growing up and breaking out of this childish degenerate "I NEED TO COOOOM" mentality.

Disagree with the last part, anon. Having lots of sex as a young man is important IMO. Because you realize it's overrated. The incel, on the other hand, will waste years of his time and money with regrets and putting women on a pedestal because he still thinks sex is some big achievement. And inevitably he ends up a doormat when he does get into a relationship because he does everything he can to keep the one girl who finally showed him interest.

When you have experience with a variety of women, you realize they ain't shit and you focus your time on more important things as you get older.

there's now a big divide on 4chan between the old userbase who are roughly 30-40 and the new userbase who are 15-30
the old userbase was overwhelmingly you're-here-forever basement dweller autistics, schizos, rejects, loners, pariahs, etc. and almost all white
the new userbase is enormously more normal and over 50% brown
there are now threads in which the newfags are genuinely confused that there are people on 4chan who have never had sex or at least not without paying
and amusingly the newfags consider that all the weirdos on 4chan are the brown thirdies, who are mostly normal newfags themselves
we used to call this new type of user reddit refugees but that term is now outdated, regardless they have no concept of what the old 4chan freakshow was like

And they need others to point it out otherwise they just can't acknowledge it, lack the ability to. And that brings us to friends/women/social life. You need to be confident to aquire these things. Looks only gets you so far, and most pretty bois are just a meme. Give yourself more credit anon, yiu deserve it. Even if you are a degenerate, see the good things in yourself and be proud of it.

I saw that, agree with de-prioritizing sex in general, especially into your 30's. I guess in a way, both the incel and the dude-who-fucks-everything end up placing sex on a pedestal. One actually has sex and the other doesn't, but both end up obsessing over sex (which is unhealthy at best and can ruin your life/relationships at worst).

28. I dropped out of college, moved to another country and had a gf on my country of origin. I spent six years like that.

In those six years I tried to study in this new country, couldn't afford it so dropped out again, tried to find a stable job that didn't pay like total shit so I could go back to college and/or afford rent so my gf could come with me and failed.

She spent those six years finishing an engineering degree and getting a stable, well-paying WFH job at the USA.

Ultimately I wanted to move back with her and finish college, but she left me and now I don't have any family back there so I would be just as alone as I'm now so I decided to stay.

I lost my job last month and haven't found another one. I'm unemoloyed, broke, single and all alone in a foreign country. I fucked it all up.

I guess that's true but what happened to me was I started to view it is an upgraded form of masturbation. Then when I was trying to have actual relationships I would be constantly thinking "I can do better" and want to leave for the elusive hotter woman. But the truth is the hotter woman would never date me, she'd only ONS, the perception of your league gets warped, It's just how it was for me

not trying to be snide here, but what still drives the modern man to get married nowadays in 2023 when women hold all the power through them being heavily favored in divorce courts?

Nearly every married couple I know, the man looks miserable IRL and the wife is constantly nagging him because she knows she can get away with it. Seems like pure torture. I'd never consider marriage these days until there's a drastic change in the court system

only happy marriages i ever saw were just 2, my mom's parents who are dead and a friend's mom's parents who are also dead
unhappy marriages are nothing new, remember white american boomers had the highest divorce rate ever and had the greatest economy and most rapid increase in living standard ever, but still couldn't make it work

reason is simple: incurable morbid narcissists cannot have functional relationships and certainly cannot make modern cucked egalitarian marriage work where the men behave like women, the women behave like men, and legally the men are just enserfed paypigs

the family courts system is a parallel judicial system, completely illegal and unconstitutional, but your cucked beta western numales do nothing about it, rather they voluntarily embrace emasculated indentured servitude to fat feminist whores who give them nothing in return, they're refusing to even have kids so their sham marriages should by rights be annulled

Life changing experience, absolutely incredible. Having to join the army, learn a real trade, and go back with my GI Bill so that I can finally start making money now at 30 was a huge use of time logistically and set me back a ways versus just learning nursing (or whatever trade) 8 years ago.

>If women can be manipulated into one night stands, why can't they be manipulated into loving long term relationships?
The latter needs an expanded family network, local community network, and law and morality network, to enable to maintain the long term relationship. All those have been dismantled, and some have been replaced with systems designed to dismantle the long term relationship structure.
By yourself, you can swing a random screw, unless she goes insane the next day and declares it rape. But the longer the relationship, the more superhuman effort you'll need to keep it happy and real, as external systemic stress upon it will be stronger by the hour.
If not member of some tight-knit community that can withstand the stress of the external systems, then you either have to be some sort of unbreakable, super intelligent titan, or you both redesign the framework of your relationship, so that it can survive the stresses of current year.
Even then, the moment you start modifying its parameters, external systems will try to hijack the effort and get you to choose some new made up form of marriage, and personal identities, so there too you'll have to be some super solid yet flexible player.

idk i think its better to learn nothing at all from the internet about "woman" and just do your thing. of course be an aware person. do how you would do it. if she leaves because you do it how you want to do it then she's not for you. its quite simple. like "don't cry infront of your girlfriend", if a girl leaves you because you have a cry then she's a thot-tier ho and it is actually great that she leaves, as soon as possible. just keep it real, however the real you is. these' advices online only make you play the exact games you wish that your partner didn't play. throw all of it out of the window. all it, the red pills the black pills the woman suck pills. its all b.s


> How can you possibly give good advice if you don't believe in free will?
the "I" doesn't exist. and nothing you think you "choose" is an actual choice. there's a bunch of data and a choice is being made on countless of subconcious and concious data.

yes basically, you are trying to apply all these things like "be strong in your frame" and "don't cry infront of your girlfriend" and things like that, basically being completely fake. you are the one playing games then. so don't be suprised you got into a relationship with someone who is also playing games. I mean there's always SOME play going on. the entire world is giant theathre/movie and the movie is DONE. the script is written, you are just observing it play out. but yeah, just don't play games, and you wont meet the woman that plays games. don't go into it with all this "knowledge" about "how to be" so that she wil "always respect you". its exactly how you get into a relationship with the wrong girl.

atleast that's what I think. as so far as my dataset and info goes. better to unlearn everything and throw all so called "knowledge" out of the door. the best thing to do is to know nothing.

i personally did absorb a lot of that data you are talking about. Yes i did watch all the content and redpills on woman. but i threw it in the trash. i scrapped it. I burned it. my gf doesn't play gfs and never gives me trouble, at all. when I shed a tear at the airport one time cause I had to leave her, later I asked her if she thought i was weak because I cried a little she said no, I was glad you showed your emotion. which is kinda weird that she was "glad" that I was "sad" but whatever.

its a weird world fren. just be real, ditch all the so called "advice on woman" if you have a bad feel in your gut about the girl you are dealing with just stop and move to the next. you can sense if its trouble if you listen well enough.

Was genuinely thinking about this the other day. What the fuck was the point of all the stress and hard effort in school and uni.

I was always told it would be some effort now for huge rewards later. Yet im a doctor working 6 days a week for £30k. My job is fucking hell, it's insane stress start to finish, everyone is looking to get you struck off, constant shit from other staff, universal unpaid overtime.

It was the first time in my working life i recalled being in school and working hard at exams. I earn maybe 30% more than anyone who pissed around in school and my job is easily 400% more miserable.

I don't think im going to tell my kids to try in school as what is the fucking point. They would have a nicer life doing some retail job.

>Studied harder
Yes but I mis-prioritized. Got my bachelor's and masters in CS.
Should have instead just done a bachelor's and grinded the fuck out of leetcode and landed in FAANG when it was still relatively easier to get in.
>Made more money
Ties into the above. Got a job as a dev in my no-name town with a starting salary of 67k. Regret not looking more and leveraging my MS. Regret not getting those multiple 6-fig jobs and moving to the city.
Currently making 98k at age 29 in a no-name defense company.
Though that said, because of the low cost of living of my location I was able to save a lot. I was also able leverage family connections and live with relatives to save on rent. My NW should be somewhere around 300k on top of being debt-free. This would have been way higher if I hadn't fumbled during the crypto bull run a few years ago.
>Travelling the world

>Had a gf
Still a kissless virgin and might end up getting those wizard powers next year. My biggest regret after my career choices. I was an absolute social recluse for the majority of my 20s. I fucking wish I had forced myself to go out more instead of either just staying in, playing video games, or studying.
I have made moves to be more social recently and I've greatly limited my game time and am adopting more outdoor activities so hope this changes.

Overall, all I can say about my position is, I'm not satisfied at all, I feel disappointed most days because I know if I had done things differently I could have been in a different situation. Too much complacency on my part.
But things definitely could be worse for me, and Im grateful for whatever blessings I have.

Even if true, which might be so but also might be false because humans still know nothing about the real, if there is even one solid real one, nature of the world we call existence, regrets are, as is having no free will, an enforced by the having-no-free-will aspect of this whole fuckup humans collectively call universe. Who knows what there might be besides chances, possibilities, probabilities, the hidden strings, if there are any and there are for some things, and interactions or one way actions attached to them, synchronicities and who knows what else. We know only the most obvious things. And the unobvious ones might be impossible to wrap a standard human mind around.

Things I did wrong:
- Let my inhibitions and anxieties get the better of me. I was always the weird loner in school and still carry a bit of a chip on my shoulder. I often said that I didn't care what others thought of me but only in recent years has that become true.
- Cheated on a college gf (yes, I'm a piece of shit, I know). I was too cowardly and insecure to break up and I hurt an innocent person.
- In the same vein as the first two, not finding a serious gf. I fucked around with a lot of poor quality women because I lacked the confidence to go after the women I actually wanted and underestimated my own looks and accomplishments trying to be humble.

Things I did right:
- Got STEM degrees at uni. I like the social sciences but you can learn them on your own time. Today I have a strong foundations in math and programming. Even if you can't do a STEM degree, go to uni and do your best to become a well-rounded person.
- Maintained hobbies and a fitness routine.
- Maintained my friend group. It's difficult to maintain meaningful interpersonal relationships in an increasingly online world, so take time for loved ones.
- I've travelled a lot all over the world. Solo travel has become a bit of a meme but going to foreign places where I didn't speak the language and just winging it increased my confidence a lot. I ended up meeting a lady on the road, who became one of my only serious gfs, although she also had some major dealbreakers that meant it couldn't work.
- Took (smart) risks, especially in my career and personal life. Bet on yourself. Interesting lives are not lived in the safe zone. You are more capable of dealing with uncertainty. This doesn't mean risking your personal safety, but switching jobs, starting a business, taking a chance on a girl, and striking up conversations with interesting people can lead you to great things.

Be an upstanding person. Do right by others. Hold yourself to a high standard of conduct and scorn those who do not.

[Anonymous No.56783590]

>>56783542
More regrets: - Started working too early. I worked some bad fast food jobs in high school for wages that were not missing out on social opportunities. Jobs that are worth keeping show their payoff fairly immediately; don't wait around for promised pay raises or promotions.
- Let the internet shape my perception of reality too much. Don't get me wrong, the internet is still a great communication tool and some of you guys are awesome, but there are a lot of weird fuckers that distort reality on here as well.

More things I did right:
- Learned to socialize. You don't need to be a social butterfly but people help people they like.
- In the same vein, become generous. People go out of their way to help people that help them.

this was before that term existed. i don't go to r9k any more but i imagine all the incel shit has chased all the women away. people then just wanted real discussions and so chatrooms formed outside of the board.

I’m 26, own a small house in a small town, and I have something like 50k$ in land and precious metals.

I need to really get back to working out but something happened after 18 where the stress of waging turned me to food and booze instead of fitness.

I know myself too well to think that there’s some alternative timeline in which I’m just a normie doctor or IT guy. The anxieties of my early 20s around what to make of my life effectively removed any of this remorse or depression. It’s instead just a melancholy fueled by how gay our modern life is.

I need to pray more. I need to read the Bible more. I roughly know my path through life but the terror of man weakens my resolve.

I will raise based children regardless of how much money I have.

I had my heart broken by the former love of my life a few years ago and spent a full year committing financial suicide and quitting my high finance job and meditating alone with my dog in the desert and mountains.. not sure I could have done it differently. Life is wild.

Data mining thread but I'll bite.

>Studied harder
I was always a retard, but I graduated high school, went to a good college, and studied chemistry and biochemistry. I loved it but I wasn't a perfect student before college (B+ kinda guy), but I got fucked in college due to catching up on socialization, life skills, ect while also suffering from a significant autoimmune disease that I only got diagnosed and treated for after I graduated. Graduated with a 3.0, which left me in a difficult spot. I do wish I had studied harder or could even go back to school. I loved chemistry and thought is was so interesting, but I didn't make this decision with the notion of what types of jobs were available to me after I graduate, as I actually hate working in labs. Right now I just bumble between jobs, not staying for longer than 6 months to a year before my contract ends or I am fired. The money isn't even good.

>Made more money
Money does buy happiness and everyone who tells you otherwise is a retard. If someone tries to argue with you about this they are too far gone and cannot be helped or trusted. Figure out how to make as much money as possible in life. You will not be happy if you are poor.

>Did you wish you had studied harder
I kind of regret dropping out of college, not because of the career stuff, but because it is a cool accomplishment in itself. I went to a prestigious school and got into a really solid job junior year - school wasn't needed anymore and was quite expensive.

If I could go back, I would have made better efforts to have a cool high school experience (eg gone to prep school instead) and dual-enrolled at a community college. Then completed undergrad wherever while working.

>made more money
I make around $300k/year including bonuses. I have a hard time spending money though. I've been debating a $5,000 watch for like 2 months - I won't miss the money I'm just hyper conservative financially.

My NW is about $800k all-in. The only thing I'd have done differently financially would be buying a house as soon as I started working full-time.

>travelled the world
I've traveled around the US quite a bit, covered the whole east coast and the caribbean. Long flights to euro or asia give me anxiety though. I wish I had done it earlier so that I don't have to think about potentially doing it now. It's cool to have cultural experiences like that under your belt.

>had a gf
I'm married with 2 kids. We had our first when I was 24, and although I love them all very much I do kind of wish I had been single and on my own for more of my 20s.
Otherwise, I'd have lifted and focused on muscle building more when I had the chance to take advantage of hormones and such.

I have no regrets, but rather forks in the road of my life that make me realise how things could have been different. Basically my life is crossed by three points that changed it, the first is my mother contracting breast cancer, which forced me to take care of all the household chores (and her) since the treatment left her almost immobile the first years and to basically raise my little brother of 10. The second was my father dying in a factory accident, which forced me to start working (paying a caregiver) from the age of 16. The third was my eldest brother getting carried away with his drug addiction which made me the man of the family and only increased my burden. I am 31, I am satisfied in the life I lead as I am able to provide for my mother, my brother is now an independent adult and I have a "good" quality of life. But because of my responsibilities I never enjoyed my youth, I have almost no experience with women, I have no real friends, I could never project my dreams so I have no idea what I would do if I had free time. I am a work automaton who is so conditioned to this lifestyle that if I don't spend 10 hours at work I have panic attacks and severe depression. I guess that's why I leaned so much towards conspiracies, selling my unvaccinated sperm and investing in shitcoins (w-woo nubtc). I guess I need something to explain why the world is what it is to me.

No regrets. I am not a boomer but i literally did the sex, drugs and rock n roll. Its that. When you made it. Time doesnt exist. No more fuckin meetings. No more goddamn alarm clocks. You wake up when YOU feel like waking up because YOU control YOUR time. You know when you cannot tell 5am to 5pm that time of twlighy is a magical time. I didnt study harder. I studied the arts. I travelled the world. GF can make you smile and make you seethe. You can live in the grey color spectrum while you wagie or you can live like a chad and not give a fuck what people think like dj khaled. When you can call black people a degrading term they used against their own kind to their faces like him, you made it.

Yes. Wish I finished school, but I have ADHD and probably undiagnosed autism spectrum disorder.

I had a good childhood thankfully and my teenage years were cool too until about 15 when I discovered the Internet and went full autist single mothers son and skipped school. Developed really bad social anxiety on top of that to the point where I didn't even was able to buy my own groceries or go to the pharmacy. That thankfully resolved through exposure therapy, but I'm still very shy and afraid of older people. This all could have been avoided if I had a father and not an alcoholic depressed mother.

But guess what, it is what it is, and I am thankfull for all of that because I think it made me a better person but it also blackpilled me alot. Thankfully I live in germany and get neetbux and have a roof over my head.

My dream is to live in japan because everyone is as autistic and socially anxious as I am there, seems like a heaven for me. Also no crime. Since the sandnigger and nigger invasions,i am always afraid to go outside, this is a fallen country and any aspirations I had to change my life are completely gone thanks to that.

I have never been one to look to the past and feel regret, but then I'm a temperate person and haven't done any epic fuck ups that I continually feel the consequences for like getting divorce-raped. I had a really shit childhood but managed to get past and heal from it, so a lot of my 20s weren't very glamorous due to that process. I like being me.

I did everything I wanted to do how I wanted to do it. I made plenty of mistakes along the way and I broke a few hearts, including my own multiple times. My regret is double edged, I should have had children but I wouldn't really want to leave them with this faggy world that exists now on the verge of collapse.
I'm just comfortable money wise so that helps, mainly due to owning my house outright. I wear nice clothes, have a nice enough car with a 2023 plate, a 65" OLED TV with an Atmos system and a hot wife my age.

So not really any regrets.

Idk anon I guarantee I’ve meditated and am more conscious/aware in my daily life than you are and I notice the red pill stuff definitely holds some truth in roughly half of women and a lot of women in my life have exemplified those points before I ever looked at “red pill content”. I agree it’s easy to let that stuff poison your mind but it also can help you identify certain patterns and behaviors to avoid. By no means should anons live by it but idk how you argue against stuff like alpha fucks beta bucks when you see it play out in real time over and over again in human relationships as well as the animal kingdom. Are there discrepancies? Sure, but some of that stuff is just biological so pretending it’s not real and a part of evolution is throwing the baby out with the bath water. It probably causes more short term harm then good for some, but tell that to the beta that gets divorce raped and swallows a shot gun because he caught his wife fucking the plumber and she takes his kids.

29. Regret not spending more time on my passions. Also regret not doing everything I could to put a ring on the finger of this girl I knew when I was in college. I doubt anybody will ever get me like she got me again. Rest are all pretty superficial shit with the benefit of hindsight. Like "oh I wish I sold the top" or oh I wish I hadn't done this or that financially. Taking care of my health is a big one too.

You're just in denial man. You want to cling to your romantic beliefs about women which aren't true. I'm noticing some of that retarded magical thinking bs from you when you say stuff like "be a blank slate, you'll attract a blank slate woman too". That sounds like manifesting bs. Also, there are no women who are blank slates (nor anyone for that matter). They have tons of preconceived notions about men and relationships that they developed while they are kids. While boys are racking up wins in COD, girls are playing social games/manipulation.

>Did you wish you had studied harder
Yes. I was enrolled in university for a total of 6 years with absolutely nothing (zero) to show for it except the guilt of lying to my parents and my friends, and a 50+ bodycount of average to hot women. Lied to almost every one of those girls and definitely hurt some of them emotionally. I've only ever loved one of them.
>made more money
I went all in ETH with summer job savings in 2017, cashed in in 2021, re-entered and been holding since. I haven't stressed about money in years which feels good, I guess.
>travelled the world
My zogbot work allows me to travel plenty and keeps me occupied and socially/mentally sound. Been to every continent except Antarctica.

Wish that I had stressed less about little things like car repairs and idiot bosses, socialized more in college, fucked more when my dick still worked, and didn't stress eat myself into fat and diabetes.

I am 38 now and low level "made it" by most people's standards here. I have not worked a regular job in almost ten years and seven figures invested.

But my health is getting worse and it hits me so hard how easy everything used to be in my twenties. It's harder to focus on anything and peel myself out of bed most days.

No real pleasures left besides food which is also killing me.

Also miss how chill the world was before 2015 when media didn't require some gay political discussion or subtext to justify existing. I will never comprehend the rise of nigger worship.

How old are you? I know plenty of guys that marry in their 30's and even 40's. If degradation of appearance due to age is what you attribute to a lack of romantic success, consider having money and something going on in your life. There are probably a million young latina women searching the USA high and low for a nice guy to let them move in with them and teach them English and fill them with goo and have kids. You should already be clued in by now, but I'll tell you anyways... getting older as a man is leveling up, aging as a woman is just aging.

You need to learn both how to let shit go, and how that doesn't mean what people think it means. Have you read about loci of control?
Conspiratorial thinking is a cause and a symptom of our times - somewhat unrelated, but since we are on /biz/, I recommend you read this piece: https://aeon.co/essays/going-cashless-is-a-bad-idea-but-its-not-a-conspiracy

This is frankly a decent thread - some saying they wished they'd worked less, others more, some wishing they could have studied, others wishing they hadn't.
None of them are wrong, so if you feel like work is all you want to do, why would you be?

>Any regrets and no regrets?
I try not to regret my actions in life because I want to live and die with a clean conscience, not constantly apologize to myself. Still, there are several things I wish I did differently or did right:

What I'd do differently:
>Study something a little less theoretical. Industrial engineering is cool, but actually making shit gets you money, job prospects, and respect. Manufacturing engineering would've been ideal.
>Not slack on picking colleges at first. I had little reason to study a gorillion miles away except to feel adventurous and chase prestige.
>Not seek out people to vent for therapy/depression. I just turned people away and fucked up dating prospects. Nobody gives a shit about your problems.
>Avoid reclusion after HS. I loved the free time, but got carried away. Lost purpose and felt incredibly isolated.
>Take more risks. I skipped a lot of things because I was too concerned with image, danger, parents' opinions, etc. (includes investing).

What I did right:
>Studying STEM. Never going to regret this shit ever.
>Transferring colleges. Covid still fucked things my junior year, but way less than if I had stayed across the country. Still got a degree from a decent school.
>Being more blunt. Beating around the bush gets you nowhere at all.
>Avoided NEET trap. Could have laid down and quit a long time ago, but I persisted.
>Travelling. I got a month of travel with my friend as a graduation present from our parents, and it singlehandedly rejuvenated my interest in life.
>Doing well in school/early life. I know a lot of tards that somehow make it later on, but they go through a shitton more stress to get there.

I know my life has been much easier than most degens on 4chan, but I don't think it's an arms race to be more traumatized than others. Rather, I appreciate people who make the most of the cards they're given and don't squander their opportunities. We all "make it" in our own ways.

My single regret is just not knowing how good I had it in the past. If I had any idea 26 would be having nothing to live for except a dead end remote job and an 800 sq ft apartment, I would have done things differently 10, 8, 5, 3, and even 1 year ago.

[Anonymous No.56806465]

34 years old, didn't do much dropped out of highschool, ended up getting decent gigs by just being a charismatic prick, made some good money and helped family pay stuff off, got bored of a good thing and fucked it all up because I just don't care about much since I realized at a young age I was going to die one day

Just blew all the savings I had left on a house in some shithole city with 10k people in it and I am effectively going to start over from scratch without any solid plans for a career or anything really.

Wishing that I did x would be the same as wishing I did x, it is largely irrelevant, you are always in a position to start improving but only if you really want to do it, I just ride the stream and reach out every now and again

I have traveled to different countries but I am just not the kind of person who finds meaning or some such in such things, I don't revel in accomplishments or aspirations

That being said having worked a bit harder at making even more money would have meant I could have retired at this point in my life but who knows if I would have been any happier, the brain always has a problem to solve
