I have
>a job that pays $400k/year
>a masters degree
>a six pack
>a 22minute 5k and a 180kg deadlift
>a mortgage for a comfy apartment
>two FWBs
>practically have to push people away because everyone at my office wants to be my friend

and I was a billion times more happy back when I was an obese NEET playing World of Warcraft all day in my dad's attic. I want to go back but I can't.
>>
>ITT things that never happened
originally
>>
>>85629037
life isn't about being happy you mong
>>
>>85629048
nothing i posted is that impressive except my paycheck. I earned it by becoming a software engineer and getting a comfy stable job in a FAGMAN company back in 2020

I don't know why I'm popular at my office.

>>85629058
but i want to be happy
>>
I'm a 34 year old basically neet, work 20 hours a week and it's perfect. Don't have to deal with anyones bullshit, can fuck my sex doll whenever, mostly just hang out with my dog and get drunk/high though.
Other normie people are exhausting. If i had my own home set in stone (my mom is letting me stay practically rent free in the one she inherited)I wouldn't be trying to start a career now. Working >26 hours a week is hell
>>
>>85629037
Same except for the fwb part. I thought I reached my lowest a long time ago but having a job made me realize how truly insufferable normalfag life is. I've never seriously contemplated suicide before getting a job. I hate this reality.
>>
>>85629037
Why not play world of Warcraft in your comfy apartment when you're free?
>>
>>85629037
Take some time for yourself sometimes man when was the last time you had a relaxing vacation

Nigga I would have more respect for you if you just outright bragged and didn't hide your brag behind the gay little woe is me bullshit

>>85629066
>but i want to be happy
sounds like you are
>>
>>85629037
what do you do for 400k/yr?
>>
>>85629079
my job requires me to work 50-60 hours a week. I don't really want to leave it for a simpler job because it's actually pretty comfy other than the obscene hours. My company pays for me to travel the world and eat at top restaurants just so I can spend 1 hour talking in a conference. All this is in addition to the fact that AI is raping my field and I'm determined to not be replaced until UHI is a thing/I can live off my investments instead.

Also, the elite tech wageslave life is very high maintenance. You can't just spend all of your free time how you want to. You have to read the same books as your coworkers, shop for similar outfits, partake in the company social life and work on your skills constantly. It's basically a state of constant work and everyone does it at these top companies. It's an environment for autists sure, but very conscientious career oriented autists, or just legit savants.

>>85629093
yeah I can't remember myself desu, I don't like taking vacation because my work just piles up for when I get back.

>>85629109
i'm proud of myself but I feel like i'm going to explode. I sleep fucking terribly too and am completely dependent on sleeping meds.

>>85629120
not really...

give me all your money and kys then

>>85629132
Recently I've been noticing a pattern with more and more threads popping up of larps and well I don't know why whoever is doing it is doing probably attention seeking but at least try to make them believable it's just weird
>>
>>85629140
okay post btc address

>>85629153
idk what to say, but i'm being honest. If you don't believe me then so be it, this thread is just for me to scream into the void before I go back into the meat grinder tomorrow.
>>
>>85629179
if you're serious about giving your money away, drop an email and i'll be in contact with you. nta though
>not really...
>lists several markers of a conventionally successful life
>says it doesn't make you happy
yes, you can ride the pony
>>
>>85629132
I don't think the tech exec life is ever gonna get swallowed by AI exactly because capital moves through social interaction. You can bot the stock market but the moment the money these algorithms are pouring into companies stays stuck is the moment the economy itself implodes.
If you want the future of work, it's that. Nothing but constant meetings and talking about bullshit with coworkers and executives from other companies.
Have you tried paying for whores, gambling and fucking with drugs to blow off some steam? You fucked up the moment you decided to rely on sleeping pills btw. Generally for people to cope with the lifestyle it's either that or a zenlike state of repetition and personal interests/hobbies closer to the artistic or philosophical sphere that lets you be okay with the way your life flows comfily. Faking it means an early death. Personally I love riding expensive motorcycles at night and hitting on asian girls, and sometimes reading good books and playing video games.
>>
>>85629132
I find it interesting you are capable of doing the linkedin psycho grind but have enough self awareness to recognize the grind is fucked up and you are unhappy. I always imagine people like you to be be soulless NPCs without internal monologues that would never post on 4chan but I guess we do get some of these types once in a while.
>>
>>85629037
You seem like you are pretty much without any goals to work towards. Maybe that is the issue?
On another note: How hard is it to land a job like that nowadays as central European with Masters degree and what is the best way to get one? I want a house in the alps but the cheapest ones start at prices completely out of reach for normal people here.
>>
>>85629153
More and more people are being blessed with intelligence and opportunities but don't have the will to perservere and capitalize. Aka talent wasted on the ungrateful.
>>
>>85629066
be better at running i have a 17 min 5k and I'm slow
once you get 15 you will be happy, or a sub 2:30 marathon

presumably you have enough to retire if you make $400k though (unless you spent most of it instead of saving what you didn't need). could figure out something you care about, retire, and try running your own hobby business or whatever it is you enjoy. get more involved in people's lives, etc. having no goals will make it feel like there's no point.

oh yeah also he's european, what then?
>>
>>85630199
> he's european, what then?
If he's white, it's alright. :]
>>
>>85630220
but it would be rather difficult to meet up, if there's a large distance
>>
>>85630090
what do you have to offer?
something I've always wondered on both sides, lots of people thinking they deserve way more while not working for it themselves. Mostly with incels on this website but I've seen it with some women irl as well (most guys I know irl aren't dating to begin with). Not that bringing a lot to the table necessarily gives better chances at getting a good spouse, it's rough in general, but still.

>>85630305
Im super hot, cute, sweet, extremely loyal, forever devoted, wealthy heiress and degree in finance.
>>85630274
Not an problem.
>>
>>85630446
bait unironically used to be way more believable.
>>
>>85630454
Is true! I just have autism
>>
>>85630446
>Not an problem
well I actually make only 30k a year, so it might be
>>
>>85630446
The degree in finance is something I suppose (not all too familiar with it), but are you using it and do you have hobbies or other things you care about? 'hot' 'cute' etc. are just supposed to be bonuses to an interesting person but also fairly subjective. Might be what gets someone's attention initially but the rest is needed to keep someone (who's worth having at least)
>>
>>85630467
If you work hard, nothing is impossible
>>
>>85630490
well that is true, a family unit would be a big motivator on that front

>>85630488
> but are you using it
I worked in a bank. Im getting more degree rn.
> other things you care about?
sure, I write music. I like singing. I like old fashioned things. I collect art and antiques. I like documentaries and war and nautical things. I like fashion and perfume and cooking. I like some vidya and anime. I like cool facts.
>>
>>85630637
so can we have a discord then?
>>
>>85630637
those are good things, have you considered looking into clubs for those? I know my hometown has people getting together to play music and there's fiddling groups and a bunch of other options in that alone. Probably the same for art and cooking, although I'm not as familiar, maybe the others too.
>>
>>85629037
>180kg deadlift
good job on the other stuff anon but jesus that's weak unless you weight like 10 stone
>>
>>85630700
>have you considered looking into clubs for those?
Id consider it, yeah. A little shy.
>>
>>85630446
if you're all that and still can't find a good man the issue is you or your own standards. not a femcel
>>
>>85630814
>still can't find a good man
I have a bit of the tism, sir.
Plus I dont like hook-up, casual or modern dating culture.
>>
>>85630802
may as well try and get experience socializing, can't hurt even ignoring dating. Can't get better without getting out. In my experience everyone is like 30+ as well but might be better where you live.
