I'm 28 years old and will have a pretty decent inheritance (about 4MM in properties that generate about 13k net income a month).
I've stopped working. I made about 1.2MM dollars from 2017 with a 70k initial investment. After taxes for 2017/2018 are considered, I'll have made about 780k in cash (I've already diversified some into safer stocks)
Basically, I've retired. I've spent pretty much all of 2018 traveling the world, fucking whores, and researching the most unique culinary experiences to book. I also will sometimes date a girl I meet on tinder, but usually it's whores.
After 10 months of this, I'm fucking completely bored of it all. Take it from me, there is NOTHING that pure hedonism and material things can give you that are worth spending your life chasing. It's a road that leads nowhere, unfortunately I think many must personally experience it to understand why.
My problem is though that I've been trained my whole life to be part of the rat race. It's almost like I don't feel comfortable NOT being a wagecuck. All my life and through college I was told to "get a job" etc etc, and everything about the education system is designed to turn you into a cog. Well, I don't know how NOT to be a cog anymore, it's like all my systems of motivation were crafted to fit wagecucking, like in Brave new world how they grow babies upside down to make sure they're only truly comfortable fixing planes upside down (designing a working class that doesn't feel good unless it's wage cucking).
How do I get back my soul? How do I reclaim my motivation and reasons to live? You've helped me make over 1MM biz, now I'm asking for help agian.
Btw not going to kill myself. Hedonism and material things aren't great but they're way better than being dead I think
you have money to fund your own projects, you can do whatever

Sounds like you would have reached this conclusion even without crypto.

Larp but i'll feed you anyway. Learn a skill. Build things. Write music. Stuff like that.

Become a futurist. Get excited about new technologies and how they can benefit you. Find a way to get yourself to be a part of whatever industry excites you the most, and try to work out a flexible relationship with that industry. Maybe you just fund related startups, or you could be more hands on and create one yourself.
Alternatively, try to adopt a larger perspective about humanity. How can we get to the next fundamental step as a species? Dedicate your time to making that a reality.
I'm 20 but I suspect I will be in a similar situation as you when I get to your age, and that's my plan.

Yes and no, real estate is a safety net, but I probably won't see the full inheritance for 10 years, and right now I only get about 3k/month from the one I already got.
So while I had my basic needs covered even if I didn't have to work, I still had purpose. But this giant influx of money kind of fucked me up. It gave me a lot of time to think about my life and enjoy myself, but now I don't know where anything leads.

Well I don't know what you're looking for, posting a thread like this.
You're going to get the usual answers: >Lift weights, better your body >Pray, meditate, better your soul >Read, watch important films, etc. better your mind
Each of us wants something different out of life and none of us have exactly the same motivation. Maybe you'll find some nuggets of information in this thread but you're not going to find the golden ticket. None of us can tell you what to do with your millions or how to be happy, it's entirely up to you.
Probably a good place to start though is internally. Lifting, meditating, eating healthy, reading novels, watching life-changing movies. Things like that can clear your mind and make it easier to find meaning in life.
