I was laid off two months ago, now all I can do is take refuge in books while waiting for an answer

>le sleep deprived, unkept anime boy, but still cute
Fuck ups don't look like that, they're slobs. Often fat too.
>>
>>24939024
this economy is fucking ass the fed better cut interest rates tomorrow but that just means more inflation but u kinda can't win when ur debt to gdp ratio is at like 125% in peacetime. for real tho i know some people who graduated this year with actually useful degrees and they can't find shit.

I was doing quite well, I had a job, I went to the gym. The OP is 22. I've been with many women. Surprisingly, I'm not fat, nor do I look bad; in fact, I'm slim and attractive. However, since I got fired, I've locked myself away again just like I did when I was a child. I have money saved up, I said 'to hell with it, I'll try to go to university,' and I have time, I have savings, but it's impossible for me. I spend my time sleeping, or lost in wandering thoughts, and when I try to go outside, I suffer from derealization. I know there must be a book that can help me

going to college is so fucking easy u have a bunch of people called professors who tell u what to do, u do it by their deadline, they give u a grad, u repeat that for four years and they give u a degree. it has to be one of the easiest things u will do in life.

If you're looking for self-help recommendations don't bother, they're basically scams
If you're looking for fiction try to find a coming-of-age story that fits your fancy
In all likelihood though there's not gonna be one specific book that'll help you change your life or whatever, you're better off getting professional help
>>
>>24939036
Yes but there's a sacrifice that im not willing to make.

Depends how old.
>17-20
>Pearson's SAT prep.
or
>Building Your Own Home for Dummies.
so that you get tradie basics down and don't sound like a retard when applying.

>20-21
If you're past 20 or at most 21, its essentially over. Too long for a decent non participation award Uni, not the sort that would make it in the trades.

Wagie jobs do not contribute to society, not anymore.
2 years ago I went to a Checkers outside Miami, GPT took my order perfectly. No
>*audible laughter* "you play too much" *ahem* "scuuuze me syir I wuz on muh phone with my daughter she sick what'll ya havvvvvv"
That burger could easily have been made better by robots in 1/5th of the time.
Clothes at Kohls can be folded by robots.
Line cook jobs can be done by robots.
Hedges could be trimmed by robots.

Wagie jobs are a jobs program that are a net drain on society.
We're better off with you just remaining a useless NEET if you're past 21 and waiting for the UBI check in 3-4 years.

Basic Mathematics by Serge Lang
Go to community college and enroll
>>
>>24939019
stop? why?
>>
>>24939031
Based. What is the problem? Why do you need help?
>>
I was a NEET for 5 years and what helped me was getting a job
>>
A bank book.
>>
>>24939229
not OP but looked into this.
>Already above my head with basic algebra.
"No kid left behind" ensured I was passed along with absolutely no fundamental understanding of the building blocks (basic arithmetic) that would take me from elementary math to middle school math+.
You know how they say 60% of the American population is illiterate? Don't look into the ones that are mathematically illiterate. We fall through the cracks because we can speak (relatively) decently.

>>24939518
America had the chance to be a mathematical education superpower like France with the Sputnik crisis, but the efforts failed

Nassim Taleb and lolbert authors unironically inspired me to open a business, the only decent alternative to wagefaggotry.
>>
>>24939019
Les Miserables, Marius chapters
>>
>>24939518
what part of arithmetic don't you get?
>>
>>24939964
What did you read by Taleb that made you start?
>>
>>24940008
Antifragile and Skin in the Game, his most pro-entrepeneurship/risk-taking works, but you should read everything.
>>
>>24940053
He also dunks on wageslavery and academia a lot in those, which should at least be enticing to NEET-brained individuals.
>>
>>24939019
Identify the causes write them down then strategize how to deal with those causes and find books for the specific issues
>>
>>24939019
there is not book about that, just get a job.
>>
>>24939215
wagies and tradies are the safest from ai actually. robots are just too inflexible and expensive for the near and medium future to replace them. it's low-value-add, low-agency white collar shit that is gonna be the first to go. low level coders, analysts, paralegals. no robots needed and ai models are either already superior or can be used by an ai-wrangler for >10x efficiency.
>>
>>24939019
No but you have time to ready books so why not.
