You are trying to find a way to stop being a wagey, right?
>>
>free
That's a HUGE lie in your image.
>>
>>84871608
Is the lion not free there?
>>
i'm rich enough not to work. I still work though, cause of family social obligations. It's better than being poor, but it's also very demotivating; cause when payday comes, I don't feel any dopamine spike at all.
>>
>>84871612
Don't play dumb if you're not dumb.
>>
>>84871608
Why do people think freedom is one thing or the other? It literally isn't. Under these restrictions, the lion is free to exist without much burden. It's a tradeoff sure but it's genuinely freer this way.
>>
>>84871658
That must suck, why dont you start a business doing something you love? Then the paycheck wont be the final goal
>>
why do people come on here and pretend to not understand third grade concepts like freedom
>>
>>84871672
Ok since you wont tell me, im going to assume you think the lion on the right is not free because he cant go places due to hunters? Or because he has obligations to the pack? Or because he too is constrained with abstract limitations?
>>
>>84871694
physical barriers created by another species for the purpose of enclosure are not 'abstract limitations'. why are you pretending to be retarded?
>>
>>84871719
Thats like your dumbass saying ,.oh well since i cant go to space and im limited to earth id rather be caged in a basement,, Why are actual low iq people so cocky
>>
>>84871719
KEK retard hahahhahaha
>>
>>84871585
Yes and I see no exit when I run the numbers, the investments I have and can make. But I'll try
>>
>>84871585
>Just have good boy points you got somehow from somewhere from someone else into your good boy account bro
>its all that matters bro
>>
>>84871585
Idk honestly.

Im an only child, no cousins. I am the only child in my generation for my entire family, on both sides.

I feel an enormous pressure to get rich and take care of my family as they grow old. I think, unfortunately I will be a wagey for life just because of the hand ive been dealt.

I come from a lineage of blue collar workers on my dads side, my dad being a welder, his dad being a carpenter, his dad being a farmhand.
On my moms side, they are unemployed, her mother was unemployed, and her mother was unemployed.

I am the only child forced to take care of a line of people who have not set me up with wealth, but they have given me life, and I love them, so a wage slave is the life I will live, for better or worse.

I don't have the option to go be free, unless I want to leave my family behind.
>>
>>84871686
I really should, but I'm crippled by laziness, procrastination, and I don't really love doing anything.
>>
>>84871814
I left my family behind and made wealth on my own, then came back and helped momma
>>
>>84872077
Thats so sweet :) I admire that.

Did you have to help mama, both aunts, two grandmothers? /genq

Thats the situation im in, and im struggling to do this.
>>
>>84872163
Well just like animals, we have to leave our nest to find success, thats part of life and you shouldnt feel guilty to live your life
>>
>>84871608
That shit ain't free, the zoo makes animals do stupid "enrichment" stuff just to get food.
>>
>>84871585
There's no comparison. Lions don't make supercomputers and neither do humans if they're defending themselves against being mauled as they walk from the front door to the parking lot to feel the thrill of the caveman lifestyle.
>>
I have been working on this since I was 18 and I'm 37 now.
>113k gold
>75k silver
>59k stocks
>31k cash
>30k bonds
>land worth about 40k, live in RV on it
>no "job" for more than 10 years
Am I free yet?
>>
>>84872320
I am bound by the invisible chains of the Italian family structure. It is crippling. I feel so much pressure to basically buy a giant house and put my family in their own rooms, and work a dead end corporate job until I blow my fucking brains out.
>>
>>84872527
Noooo dont blame the structure or your family, its 100% your fault for being too scared by tradition to do anything meaningful with your life.
>>
I'm so glad I'm not a wagie anymore.
>>
>>84872570
You're probably right. I just feel guilt for leaving behind the women who sacrificed so much to take care of me.

I also dont have any great role models, as most of my family is unemployed. I have one family member who is a teacher and works in the summer to make extra money, and tutors until 8pm to make extra money. Just working 12 hrs a day to make ends meet.

I wish I knew what to do with my life.
>>
>>84871585
I may end up retiring very early within the year after gaming a bit less and spending time making some moves
Actually could've in 2025 but there was this opportunity that I changed my mind about at the last moment thinking I was being blinded by greed
>>
>>84871585
Very far from it, actually. I have like $130k in debt despite hating the idea of having it.
>>
Just mindlessly wagecucking while masturbating on the backs of napkins various house, farm, and permaculture ideas. Water system, light, air. Anything to detract from the soul wounding nature of waging. I have a million cool ideas that have not been acted on.
Money is really the problem, conceptually, not in the sense of needing a certain amount, magic number, safe withdrawal rates and all that shit. If the goal is a home with food and fuel it's much less time to cut out the middle man and acquire such things directly. It's the only way the math works out unless you earn more than $300k/yr.
Age related decline is something to consider, but something like pecans is not extremely labor intensive and can bring in today's equivalent of $10-20k/yr easily enough to cover agricultural land taxes and worst case scenario monthly delivery of bug rations if genuinely no longer able to split wood. But you can probably find a master and disciple relationship and have someone work to support you with the expectation that he will inherit the property in the event you are childless and no relatives can be groomed into the philosophy behind the land enough to deserve it.

>I have like $130k in debt despite hating the idea of having it.
Damn. Student loans?
>>
>>84871585
>which one would you rather be
Not the one who will one day have to fight to death to stop some other lion from killing his children and raping his females under threat of killing them too. lions live like niggers. no wonder only niggers like them, meanwhile everyone admits tigers are more noble. In Jap myth they are the only things that can rival dragaons
>>
>>84871608
You riled up the retards with this one, who somehow interpreted this as meaning
>he is not free while outside
when it was
>his food, shelter and medical care is not free in the zoo
Which is true because he is essentially an enslaved performer
>>
>>84871585
>How close are you financial freedom?
Very close. Just need to survive training programs and the one year of work probation.
