What's the point of reading Stirner, Kant, Descartes, Evola, Aristotle, Socrates, Nietzshsche, book authors on youtube, J.K. Rowling, whoever the fuck /lit/ is reading if I'm still gonna end up as a wage slave?

Embrace NEETdom. I’m sitting on my chair reading, watching anime and eating meanwhile wagies are slaving away for Mr Shekelberg.
The first pill to take is the rejection of Christian work ethic.

To allow you to hate your life more. You'll realize even more how much a waste of time slaving away is. Spending most of your day learning nothing, along with associating with people who have no interest in any of these philosophers. You'll be able to savour your suffering so much more.

reading while watching something is a degenerate practice, you have to completely focus on what you're reading (and if you can understand it without full attention, then it's probably not worth reading anyway)

We're just a startup right now and are in the middle of negotiating the financing of the property. Once that's settled I can offer housing, food, internet and an opertunity for partial ownership. The last being contingent on the realization of reliable revenue streams.

It's not like you'll be doing any work until "we figure out how to make money lolol" anyway.

What you just described is self-fulfilling prophecy. You are only doomed to being a wagie because you believe it will happen. Think long and hard about what you care about regardless of the reality or outcomes so far. I have spent a noteworthy amount of time and money acquiring and maintaining a pair of CRTs. They are a dying breed of display technology slowly dying out before my eyes with countless perfectly usable models being dumped and destroy every day. Even in the face of inevitable failure I still keep going because outcomes aren't what will make you happy, CARING is. The act of caring is what gives meaning, what you end up caring about is irrelevant in the face of the world at large.

What you need to do is read literature that develops your intuition. Your keen intuition can be the facility for spotting oppurtunities to get yourself out of this mess. It was not made to be easy! Good luck!

I don't understand the wageslave thing. I'm a beekeeper and I love my job and my boss and coworkers. It's a family business and I'm the only guy who isn't family but everyone is really chill about everything. I also went 4 years as a NEET living alone because I got a huge inheritance and I still don't need to work for a decade or so but I genuinely enjoy what I do.

Plus bees are cute :3
