I want wealth. Not because of cars or a playboy lifestyle but because I want to insulate myself from reality. To succeed in the real world would require me to become a cynical person. I've been thinking about this for a long time and I realized I would have to adopt the behavior of a grifter and become callous to succeed. I would basically have to LARP as someone I'm not. It gives me pains in my chest just thinking about it. I can't bear to do this. I just want to hug my parents and feed squirrels everyday but at the same time I know that I can't just waste away and disappoint my loved ones. At least wealth through crypto or some other form of wealth earned through NEETdom I would keep my cortisol low and age better. Then I could assure my loved ones that they haven't raised a failure and I could support them through my new found wealth.

Would do I do /lit/? What should I read to gain this power? Do I say some magic words? How does this work?

Is it true that we live in a Faustian era?

I'm sure books on Anarchy would be "interesting" to read I'm doubtful that they'd be "good" per se. However, when it comes to edginess I'd say that it's a "phase" ideology in the sense that its mostly attractive to college students and those of young age. But in a sort of comical way it's also a "phase" in the sense that it'll never be a permanent state. Human nature wouldn't allow it to exist all it'd take is a Will and Several men.
