Exaggerating very slightly but how the hell am I supposed to make it? Working longer and harder doesn't work and I don't know what to do without already having starting capital.

Don't shill your shitcoins here I have no money

Move back in with your parents to save money

I'm living with my parents and I can use 100% of every single paycheck on whatever I want
So, skill issue

I would but they won't let me. I begged them to do it a few years ago and I had to convince them over the course of a month or two that making me pay market rates for rent to live with them would only put me back where I am now while pointing out that every single person I know that is doing well financially is only there because they lived with their parents for an extended amount of time. They then told me that all of my friends are spoiled rich kids then lowered it to 500 a month on rent. They kicked me out after a few months despite that because I was not taking "depression meds" they demanded I had to take to live with them and that I was "sleeping too much", ignoring that I was only waking up to work and had no hobbies because I was trying to save.

The most well off guy I know my age is younger than me and all he does is smoke weed and play shooters on Xbox every day. Only reason he has that much is because his parents let him live there for free. It kills me inside knowing how far behind I am just because my parents wouldn't let me live with them.

Blackmail them.
They are evil and thus any action taken against them is moral.

They're not evil they just don't really understand how bad it is out there right now. Big difference.

imagine if you had nice parents that let you stay at their home for 10 years so you can save and invest and have a $1M by 30 cause you worked and bought bitcoin the past 5 years.

I do this but my mother is an evil gaslighting narcissist.
So it's a trade off, how long my mental health stays in tact vs how much money I can save.

Your parents are lower than Jews with how they treat you. A complete disgrace. I'm very sorry to hear about your very unfortunate situation. There's still hope for you though, but they will necessarily be highly unconventional and very uncomfortable, but they do exist.

>> No.58055679

>>58055437
Yeah they both do. They both worked extremely hard to get where they are but it feels like they pulled the rug under them and didn't realize it happened.
>>58055564
They still help me if I have an extreme expense but I think it's dumb they're willing to do that but not let me live with them as objectively I could have paid for every expensive I've had in the last year if I wasn't paying rent. What's done is done, just have to figure out a way forward, which is why I made this thread.

Sorry to hear that. I'm also smoking weed on a daily so I can numb myself and hodl instead of taking risks and deviate from my strat. Idk how people wage, it's one thing to do something you genuinely enjoy and completely opposite being a literal wageslave. Ever thought of doing WFH and moving somewhere cheaper?

>Ever thought of doing WFH and moving somewhere cheaper?
WFH yes but I can't really think of much I could do realistically. Moving likely wouldn't work as I'd seriously doubt I'd find somewhere much cheaper while making more money proportionally, and that's not accounting for a potentially worse quality of life.

I'm also a Millennial and I wonder each day if any of what I am doing is worth it. I asked my parents if I could move back in with them to save some money for a down payment and they just laughed at me. Neither of them work and I do. The only reason is why is that they can tell all of their friends that their son moved out. They just want to feel special without doing a damn thing themselves. Worthless fucking boomers.

i wage sometimes. about three or four months per year. a few days per week max 4 sometimes 3 or 2. but only cause I want it. I have been travelling 3 years. i have been so free that it has become boring and I sometimes go in the wage cage to switch things up. lmao.
