I wish I could find one of those gold mines people seem to stumble upon all the time. I'm so fucking tired of being poor, my God.I'm hardworking and driven. I started a burger business, I have a degree in mechanical engineering, but it's exhausting to put in so much effort just to survive. Fuck.I avoid watching those videos like “I Spent 24 Hours With a Billionaire” by João Curry because they make me angry. I'm out here trying, putting in so much energy, experimenting, failing, trying again, testing things over and over, and still, nothing seems to get me from barely surviving to living a genuinely comfortable life.I've never been into showing off. I've never wanted a luxurious lifestyle or to flaunt my money. But fuck, it makes me so angry that I have to constantly calculate where every penny goes, carefully manage my money just to afford things that should be the bare minimum for a decent life.The worst part is not having access to opportunities and living with so much fucking insecurity in every aspect of life.Do you guys have any advice on a side hustle or an additional income stream that I could realistically scale up? I know nobody gives anything away for free, but some genuine guidance would mean a lot.
gamble on absolute shitcoins
>mechanical engineeringknown meme degree. why do people do this major? is because it has easier requirements than other engineering degrees or something?
Here in Brazil is famous and glamour professional
>>62844141Almost every degree is a meme degree these days lmao
>>62844149that bangladeshi guy who killed himself had a phd in ai from georgia tech or something and made 500k at nvidia seems like it worked for him but then again georgia tech is a good school and ai is something america leads at.
if youre a mechanical engineer why did you start a burger business and not software related to mechanical engineering or something?where is the software to simulate gears even?but really ai is grim
>>62844124just slap a 1000x
you are all born into slavery, kill your leaders take back the bank, you all slave for the money because you need to work to live, when life is free. nature multiplies, they divide, total judeo masonic abrahamic banker death.
You’re not going to like what I’m about to say, but the true way to build wealth is the obvious and boring way. Get out of debt, live below your means, save and invest, buy assets. That is really it. You will have to work hard for about 5-10 years ti get to that comfortable spot but it will be worth it. Less that 1% of rich people got rich out of luck (gambling, inheritance, get rich quick schemes) and if you want to take that chance go for it but you will most likely fail. It’s all a long trail to get to the financial freedom road, but if you continue to do what everyone else does on the hamster wheel, you will stay in your shitty situation for ever
>>62844212the vast majority of rich people inherited their wealth you annoying burgers
>>62844215>burgersin america people make their own money, but your ancestors weren't risk taking enough to move here, so now u have to live in ur corrupt extractive shithole, bummer
>>62844124develop as many skills as you possibly can even if they seem unrelated to wealth generation. build systems in your life that generate money. read how to fail at everything by scott adams.if a system isn't working (making money), drop it quickly and try something else, dont keep beating a dead horse.always start small, never gamble big on something you think is a good idea, find a way to start it for a very low capital outlay to test it first>I have to constantly calculate where every penny goes, carefully manage my moneythis is an excellent habit. i'm a multimillionaire and do exactly this.
>>62844179Killing leadership would just leave a power vacuum, which is pointless unless you're planning on filling that gap.
>>62844147>>62844124they have these in brazil?> get to work
>>62844153Sounds like the pressure got to him. He would've been happier driving a rickshaw 12 hours a day in his natural habitat.
>>62844252he has a point there somewhere. banking is the pillar of the economy. most businesses start with a loan. so if you wanted to change things are totally youd seuze the banking system.
everyone seems to think haha no i wont work a 40 hour wagie job for 100k because i'm lazy and the company is making more than that 100k on my labor.so instead they found a questionable business where they work 80 hours a week, realize its complicated and hard, finding good people is basically impossible, and end up making 50k for double the work.the reality of the situation is the economy and policy has crushed small businesses in favor of benefits for the mega corps. you can join them or you can try and fight the established system, its that simple. the system will win. turns out not taxing corporations and the ultra wealthy has mass societal impacts long term. the bifurcation of haves and have nots is well under way, hope you own a couple million dollars in the big boys you're fucked.
>>62844215> b-but other people were born rich so I'm powerlessYou have a weak mind and deserve to stay in your lowly station. Fight harder nigger, if you want wealth, then go out and take it from them. Stop making excuses.
>>62844149yeah>>62844212this but unironically
>>62844212>if you continue to do what everyone else does on the hamster wheel, you will stay in your shitty situation for ever..but that's exactly what you're recommending?
>>62844212About 80% of rich people own businesses.Almost nobody gets rich working and saving>>62844215Less than 20% inherited
>>62844124Go back in time 5 generations and tell your grandpa to not be a stupid lazy ass and learn basic investing.
>>62844772Yeah but probably closer to 50%+ had financially literate parents who functioned as a risk cushion, even if just psychological.
>>62844124Marry whichever daughter is the ugliest of a local multimillionaire, the one they thought they'd never get rid of. Her dad will teach you the ways of quiet wealth
>>62844789I can't.I wouldn't be able to tell him because I don't speak Plattdeutsch.
>>62844772>Almost nobody gets rich working and savingif you have a real career having a job is the easiest way, but you actually have to get promoted, so prob not an option for autistics
>>62844124you can start by sucking my dick. I'll give you $100 to pop in your mouth
>>6284477220% inherited what youre being to vague. its just a matter of letting money managers manage the money once it reaches a certain threshold. why would it dissapear? think stoopid. youre capitalism is not what you idiots want it to be.
>>62844124you need to make your money work for you
>>62844124Instead of having feelings, how about you answer this question: WHAT are you doing wrong?
>>62844215>Dad just always had it!There's is always an ancestor that didn't have wealth until they did.
