Goodbye Jow Forums. Not LARP. Here my story, just give me the time of day to tell my only remaining friends something that I have not told anyone else.
About a year and a half ago I was unhappy wagecucking. I had a great job looking back, but I went for a lateral move at my job, 3 months of working hard to showcase my talent. Unfortunately the team didn't make me an offer. I worked for 2+ years in my current role and I was trapped, tried to work my way up but I kind of shot myself in the foot by telling my boss I wanted to make a move to another team.
Needless to say, I became the guy who never got promoted as everyone else around me moved up. Literally everyone on my team but me. I was miserable everday, feeling unvalued, and despite having 100k in my bank, I wanted to make a name for myself.
I discovered crypto, threw 25k in, and over the course of several months I made close to a million dollars. I finally made it, or so I thought. I was unprepared to deal with the crash, kept buying dips, and opening a loan out. As I stand today, I have 50k in my 401k, 20k to my name, and I am 60k in debt unable to get a job because of a large employment gap discrimination.
Im going to cash my 401k out, use the remainder of my crypto to pay off my debt, then jump off the Verrazano Bridge in New York.
Im not looking for sympathy. I viewed this as my last hurrah before ending myself anyway, and in a way Ive found accord. I went for it, I didnt settle, and even though that was the smarter thing to do, I face my decision.
Im happy, finally happy and come to terms. I will be drafting a final response to my family, cutting off loose terms, and letting it all out with the remaining few people who are important in my life.
Chrstine, Im sorry I couldnt give you the life you wanted.
And Jow Forums, thanks for everything. The memes, wojacks, JUST frasers, and everything inbetween kept me upbeat in my final days.
Goodbye Jow Forums
