>be me >18 yo >drop out >$50k portfolio. was $450k at peak. sold nothing >no friends >no gf >so sad
just fuck my shit up. how do i not end up like I just want to be happy. Fuck. The worst part is i used to be a chad when i was 13-15. Went to a tonne of parties, fingered chicks and made out with tonnes of qt3.14's, but then i got expelled at 15 and it all went downhill so fast from there and now i am here. what do i do. how do i end this. i havent left the house in 3 weeks. i feel like i am wasting my life away at 18. is making it the only option for me?
Watch all PIMP or TENGAME by RSD Julien videos. Helps you a lot socially.
I haven't seen Transformation Mastery but that apparently helps the most not just socially but psychologically.
There are torrents for the first 2 but the last one is $300. Seems high but worth it if it will help with your depression.

Fucking do something with your life to get out of the damned house. Go to college/trade school. Join the military. Volunteer somewhere. Get a job even if it’s shit. Go see live music and talk to people there. Spend the $50k you have left to travel and meet people in hostels. Start taking martial arts or yoga. Just do something, anything, to fucking be a part of society and maybe give back to the world instead of a depressed NEET who just sits alone and takes and takes without giving back. It’s intimidating but it’s not complicated. Don’t do the manipulative PUA shit that’s designed to teach you how to be a manipulative sociopath. Just become a more interesting person by doing something with your life until you figure out what you really want to fucking do.

Kayden Cooper
i live in the uk with my parents still. should i just pack my shit tomorrow and start travelling europe?
Jeremiah Parker
imagine peaking at 15. yikes
Isaac Lee
yes i know its fucking depressing. but its only been three years since then. i need to get the fuck out of this state man. help me please. fuck
Charles Garcia
What is your opinion based on?
Oliver Gutierrez
alright well what the fuck have you been doing for 3 years? is there adult education in the UK? or if you don't want to keep schooling, you need to think of something to do. if you want to travel, then do it, anything to get you moving for now.
Chase Robinson
The thing about successful attractive people is that they're passionate. About something. People will see that and gravitate towards them
Mason Sullivan
went to different school at 16. dropped out after that. then spent two years NEETing and making money in crypto. there is adult education but onlly if i go back to school. i will have to finish 6th form to get to a uni which means another two years and i will be an 18-19 yo in a class of 16-17 yo's.
thanks. i think im gunna buy a plane ticket to berlin now. then just wing it from there. or are there any other places in europe that are nice?
Isaac Jackson
Lmao he should keep the $50k in crypto and he'll make it really soon, that's still a lot of money, instead you advise him to blow it on fucking travels and hostels. I know you should enjoy life but let's not get ahead of ourselves there.
Daniel Martinez
the thing is user. we dont know when the next bullrun will come. it could be another 2-4 years. i dont know if i can wait that long. this is already the lowest point in my life and each day just gets worse and worse.
things that can prevent the next bullrun: >tether gets fucked >All ETF's get postponed or denied >Governments over-regulate the market >Satoshi moves his funds
Colton Bell
I could tell you all these things to reduce your suffering (letting go of your ego, essentially Buddhism) but it won't be enough for you since you want to experience for yourself. Much like Siddhartha "became successful" only to see it was not the answer.
Also, reading Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse will bring you temporary peace, short read and not too dense.
Anthony Fisher
Sure but the probability for it to happen this year is higher. With $50k in crypto now you're set, you can just bee urself and focus on something you like, especially as you're 18. I'm fucking 25 and I only have $10k. Years go by so quick, fuck I'm a boomer now
Jaxson Richardson
Just fucking finish. Lie about your age if you care that much.
Adrian Johnson
I hope so man... i think i might cash out $10k to travel. How long will that last if i stay in hostels and shit?
Carson Brown
just went to book a hostel in berlin. default is "2 guests". mfw changing it to "1 guest". fuck man lol.
You're looking into it too much. Enjoy being by yourself or a relationship will eventually drain you.
Nicholas Long
Would you mind telling us what got you expelled?
Christopher Lewis
Very, very long.
Kevin Ross
FUCKING YOU AGAIN We've discussed this. Stop posting should I shouldnt I on Jow Forums and JUST DO
Jordan Hughes
i had one friend in hs who was a wanabee druggie. he basically convinced me to buy some weed for him because he was too much of a pussy. so i went to the skatepark that weekend with his money, brought the bought weed into school and gave it to him. idk why i did that. probably the most retarded thing i ever did was bringing it into school and not just waiting for the weekend. long story short, someone found out, i fessed and then got kicked out for "dealing". he only got suspended though. shits bullshit if you ask me but w/e.
Eli Adams
i am. i am literally booking the flight and hostel right now. has anyone got experience with travelling alone? how hard is it to make friends in dorms like and will those people hang out and do shit with me or not?
Josiah Watson
Deep breaths man, dont freak out. It isnt hard to travel alone, or make friends. Just talk to people like you talk to anons on here.
Justin Clark
this user gets it, i'd also personally recommend man's search for meaning and thus spoke zarathustra.
accept responsibility for your life and create meaning on your terms. accept that pain is inevitable but suffering is not. learn to wrestle with your existential anxiety, the fear will never go away but you can learn to use it as a motivator rather than be paralyzed by it. don't strive for happiness or comfort. comfort is for children and the elderly. strong men are forged through struggle.
traveling is not a bad idea if you really don't know where to start. get out of the house, talk to strangers, take drugs (psychedelics and mdma only), all of that meme hippy shit but don't blow your finances seeking comfort through distraction desu. honestly the fact that you're having this introspection at 18 puts you way ahead of a lot of people out there. amor fati and hopefully in 10 years you can look back at yourself and laugh at how worried you used to feel.
Bentley Campbell
Good Its easier, not guarantee, if no one is up for anything go out by yourself to bars get a few drinks deep get that confidence up and talk to people
Bentley Martinez
Screw that new age crap. Jesus is the simpler answer to your problems
Jayden Reed
also, get some of these for the flight. No ragrets
lmao it's not new age the struggle is as old as consciousness itself. jesus works for some people but if you're intelligent enough to be on this board it probably won't work for you.
Landon Hughes
thanks. not a religionfag tho. maybe a few years down the line.
wtf. flights are £200 (see pic). if im flying around europe £10k is going to run out in no time.
I spent crypto gains and flew to Tokyo for a month, was pretty good but their society is fairly setup for solo travelers.
Brody Barnes
Thats because its a relatively late booking, planning in advance is much cheaper. Instead get a europe railcard, go everywhere by train, talk to everyone.
Often you don't even need a railacard they'll just not bother coming through the carriage to check.
Anthony Scott
>railcard ok got it. sounds cool desu. >talk to everyone. what do i say? >hey man, travelling alone? >ye >me too lol
Oliver Mitchell
18 yo. Literally the pure peak of physical health. GTFO. In the end, you only have your health. Everything else is unimportant. Enjoy your youth.
Dylan Phillips
>new age Buddhism literally at least 500 years older than Jesus
ask them questions, tell them about your life. >where are you going >do you live here >any reccomendations >im travelling because xyz you're overthinking it, go there travel about get pissed, share beers, share drugs, meet women blah blah jsut go and have fun, be bold. don't shy away. People may think oh my gosh, people may laugh at you. Its ok you'll never see these people again, you'll learn and grow and be better for it.
Angel Wood
got it. just booked a one way flight. flying on the 30th to Berlin, Tegel. Fuckk. This is kind of nerving. anything else i need to know?
Evan Perez
>hey man, travelling alone? >ye >me too lol
Literally that. Look for other lonely fucks or small groups of people who seemed to have met there. Try to spot other fresh arrivals. Convo can be super basic. (where are you from? what's good in the area? got anything planned for tonight/tomorrow?)
Oh and watch out for pickpockets and don't carry more than you need on you.
Like said, don't overthink it.
[spoiler]if you go in looking for something, you probably won't find it[/spoiler]
Jeremiah Miller
>Oh and watch out for pickpockets and don't carry more than you need on you. Yeh most of my stuff will be in bitcoin on binance so i can just find a btc atm if i need extra cash
>[spoiler]if you go in looking for something, you probably won't find it[/spoiler] what does this mean?
Sebastian King
31 years old young face, very little life experience babied from a young age by distant relatives who i lived with after being kicked out at 15 by my crazy single mom actually fairly smart/clever (not a genius or a snowflake but not dumb by any means) but lazy as hell, constantly imploding and failing to deliver "made it" with shitcoins and now have a low six figure portfolio have a gf no friends. none. fucking lonely no job prospects not sure what to do next
anyone have any life advice for a retard such as me? i've been working on self improvement - somewhat Jow Forums - got a gf who is wife material - no job prospects and dont know where to start
ive been teaching myself to code but i suck, i figure ill do this for 6 months and try to get a starter dev job. idk
Adam Bell
>I hope so man... i think i might cash out $10k to travel. How long will that last if i stay in hostels and shit? thinking about doing this as well, need to get out of my own head for a while.
Samuel Cruz
at 18 you're still just a young kid, have your whole life ahead of you, no reason to feel shitty
having ~$50k at 18 puts you ahead of like 99% of the 18 year olds on the entire fucking planet. Hell most 30 year old Americans don't even have $50k in disposable income/investment sitting around.
You seem to reminisce about being a Chad so start working on becoming one again. Work out a lot, spend like 2-3 hours a day focused on fitness. Stay away from shit foods, don't eat sugar or fast foods. Don't smoke, don't drink, don't use drugs (on rare occasion socially is okay but not a regular habit). Don't waste money on shit you don't need. Try to think longterm - where do you want to be at 25 years old, or 35 years old. Do you want to be rich? Then start working on a career path that can make you rich, preferably something that would allow you to start your own small business (Trades are good for this). Or maybe you have other priorities instead of wealth? Whatever they are, start planning now on how you can make them happen. Don't let your emotions control you - you feel sad? So what, do something about it then instead of sulking around feeling sad, the emotion itself won't improve your situation, you need to go and take real action.
Adam Lopez
Fucking this. FUCK OFF!
Jacob Gutierrez
kill yourself
Jaxson Moore
how much did you pay? are you autistic/crazy? maybe ill run into you
Christian Howard
>18 y/o with a 50k portfolio Am I to feel bad for you? You do realize that you're better of than literally 99.9% of mankind.
Ethan Miller
$500k at 18 would have made you set for life. I couldn't keep going if that happened to me. You will forever have to live with the thought of what could have been.
Brandon Jones
Means you're going on a holiday, not a pilgrimage
Jonathan Mitchell
£180
there is no point having money if you are not happy. $50k in the 1st world isnt that much anyway. having $450k barely felt different than having $50k right now.
Grayson Morgan
im not really too much of an autist. i sperg out sometimes tho and say some weird shit. not crazy either lel.
kek. maybe if i havent sorted this out by the time im in my mid-20's. still have time tho
Bentley King
>You do realize that you're better of than literally 99.9% of mankind 50k is enough to live in the USA for like one year or two if you really scrape by lmao
