How the FUCK do you escape wageslavery?

>despises being a parasite to parents
>lives with his parents and only pays below market rent
this
army sucks, waste of time unless you really can't get your own shit straight.

you're better off just getting an apprenticeship, people look down on plumbers/electricians but there's a lot of demand and you can get paid well within a few years.
just do that for 10 years, live like a homeless fag with 3-6 roommates in the cheapest rent, save 65-70% of your income and you'll be financially independent.

Based on a bunch of those bullshit online iq tests I'm fucking 160.
So realistically I believe i'm around 130-140. I'm definitely smarter than most people, but I'm not that creative and I've essentially cucked myself out of having good social skills.

By parasite I meant actively taking away from my parents.
I'm paying (slightly) below market value but my parents got scared off from renting out rooms from a few bad tenants in the past.
My room isn't making them any money and I'm not taking anything from them.
Also yeah I've considered going into a trade like what you've listed but I want to weigh ALL of my options before diving into something.

Patience and discipline are key.
Invest as much as you can in stocks. Diversify.
Live frugally. Walk/bike everywhere & eat lentils and oatmeal. The best things in life are cheap or free. Take care of your happiness to make this sustainable. Avoid drugs.
Try to look for better paying jobs. Work more. Net savings after expenses is what matter.

Pretty shit advice
Eat lentils and pray the stock market goes up
You need to put your money on something you control, aka a business

Nothing wrong with joining a union and just saving money and playing the market

Sounds rad. I've considered enlisting into the chairforce to do something similar. The benefits definitely pique my interest, but I really need to get in shape before even thinking about talking to a recruiter.
Also not sure how I feel about becoming a ZOGbot but at this point I'm running out of shits to give about that.

Find your cheapest college option
If you can't get merit scholarships you're never gonna make it anyway.
Get a good degree in something like computer engineering then make enough money to go into landlording.
Either that or suck dick to get into a trade union lol.

Buy Babb while it's still cheap. Research it. Could be a millionaire in 3 years for $3000.

Go all in on ATP. Don't ever shill it here. Enjoy

I was originally going to do chairforce
Then I met the other guys joining the air guard, biggest pussies I ever met. I get along much better with people in the army.

As far as being a zog I didn’t get brainwashed, in reserves you get back to being a civilian fairly quickly. Yes there is a chance for deployment

ONLY go to college if you're completely motivated for the program you choose, and you know it will increase your earning ability. Also, if you do, go to community college and don't take out any loans.

Otherwise, take those four years you would've been in school and work your ass off at whatever crappy job you can find. The goal is to build capital. The system we live in is capitalism, and therefore capital is the only way to win. Determine the lifestyle you're seeking. Reduce prospective costs as much as you can do so while still remaining happy.

Remember, it's far far easier to lower costs than it is to increase income. Time is the most valuable commodity in the world, and all your decisions should be based on that fact. Before you buy something, consider how many hours of your life you had to burn in order to earn that amount of money. "Time is money" is looking at it backwards -- money is time.

Most importantly -- BUY BITCOIN. Put a portion of every paycheck into BTC, 10%, a quarter, half, whatever you're comfortable with -- but accumulate. This is the time to build your stack; after the next bull it will never go below 10k again, and your chance for the biggest gains will be gone. This is a prime time for you to get a job and start making money, which Bitcoin will 10x within the next five years. If you miss this opportunity you will want to kill yourself. So don't miss it. Don't be like your idiot early-Millennial brothers who read about it in 2010 and thought it was a retarded idea. Don't be like me.

Also, even if Bitcoin didn't go up, you would still want to get as much cash as you could before the stock market crashes in 2019/2020. Opportunity is everywhere, and the rich will be those who seized it.

(btw on the DL look up 0xBitcoin, just a shill I'm throwing out there. Will make many people fabulously wealthy.)

Good luck based youngling.

You buy chainlink. Or you don't and you get to escape wageslavery by killing yourself when it moons.

learn programming

Programmers are just wageslaves with more wasted potential than regular wagies, and higher pay.

dont listen to any of these faggots except me.

1. don't discount the college experience in exchange for muh escape waveslavery / financial independence. it has value

2. take finance courses and follow the economy / stock market. there should be a crash coming in 1-5 years. you better have a good action plan to profit from it let alone survive it

3. get a side job at your college or somewhere else. save it obviously

4. again, DON'T discount the college experience. plenty of rich ass old people in the world who would pay a mil to re-live the college experience.

you cant. which part of slave did u not understand?

Read the Elon Musk life story book by Ashlee Vance. There's your model.

Good summary. I would correct this though

> 25x more than the monthly expenses

It's yearly expenses, not monthly.

this there you were told how now if you don't escape wage slavery in 5 years even though we told you how that's on you

most elaborate shill ever

I won't dispute that, but I'd like to note that you could use programming skills to help you on your job even if you're not working as a programmer.

Dump every last penny into ETH and wait for 1000-2000$. Then buy Link and wait for 5-10$. Congrats, you made it.

Yes brainlet, ETH will outperform Link in the near future and then Link will dominate.

Join the fucking military. I was in the same situation, joined the military a year after high school. 4 years later I'm in college, it's 100% free, and I had the time of my life.

You did not understand what escape wagecucking means.

sounds really cool user.

Join the military or reserves. If you are smart you can get training in some lucrative fields, experience working in them, lifelong benefits, and a leg up on the competition when it comes to hiring.

If you really want to never work a job again after 5 years, you're just going to have to get lucky or make some website or app that becomes worth a lot.

No you're not. People with a high iq see through the finance system.

das rite!
college, everyone go to college and golden jobs will be for the picking at the future-millionaire recruitment center

worst answer

flip cell phones > buy phones that are undervalued and sell them at market price
flip houses or purchase contracts > buy homes to purchase options that are undervalued and sell them at market price
options day trading > buy options contracts that are undervalued according to reward:risk and sell them at market price when their inherent value appreciates
Dropshipping/Amazon FBA eCom > find products that are selling well with minimal competition and source from (generally) China. drive customers to your product page with ads.

Start with low-ticket, consistent sales like cell phones then get into big-ticket items like single family homes. FX, stocks, real estate are most liquid markets.

The Millionaire Fastlane. Look it up.

But get a trade that is quick to learn or something meanwhile to actually be able to save money to invest instead of trying to jump from minimum wage to business owner which is pretty much impossible depending on where you live.

I'm being trained as a welder right now and looking for jobs in the industry. It pays well and it'll allow me to start saving serious cash to start a biz. And of course some money on the side to gamble in the crypto market.

God I wish I had started before so I could be able to buy cryptos in this current discount season.

I feel ya OP. Imagine how I feel. I've been stuck in wage slavery all my life despite joining the military, going to college for the fastest growing career (that collapsed in it's same projected time frame). I'm now 45 and it really feels like its too late for me.

Worse is I have no real advice to give you on what to do and what not to do. You can make every right choice and still end up like me. The truth is the American economy is rigged. Do your research and you'll verify this plain and simple truth. And it's going to get a LOT worse...like way fucking worse than 99.99% of people know.

There's another Great Recession (or worse) coming. It will be here around 2020. The man who predicted it is batting 10/10 on what would happen (stock market massive gains...then would lose it all in a series of sharp dips). He's been betting against the economy despite unemployment being at historic lows. By now, he is rolling in it...but this is just the beginning for him. By next year, he will have insane levels of wealth.

Not going into all the details and it really doesn't matter because most of you won't believe it anyway. But it's coming so believe what you want. You're talking about wage slavery now is like a resident of Paradise, CA complaining about high rent costs. The fact is, you have much bigger problems. If I were you, I'd prepare for the massive storm. I have for the past 8yrs. Started at 14k debt and no savings to no debt and close to 80k savings. Good luck.

Read Dan Lok's F.U. Money. You can get a free e-book on it.

You're going to need to get a second job and sell drugs

Self employment is the only way out, try to make it something you will enjoy long term.

You have a few options user, I might be repeating what others have said but here's my take.

Option 1, join the military and use GI bill for college afterwards. Save every dime you can and invest a little, put 90% of invested money in the s&p 500 and 10% in bonds. Itll suck for a few years but itll pay off.

Option 2, find a better paying job locally in a field you enjoy. You can start off small as an office assistant and work your way up, employers value job experience and work ethic so if you have both you'll do well.

Option 3, community college in a well paying profession. Community college is cheap and will get you at least an entry level job. Pick a STEM or computer focus or even better both and that will get you what you want. 2 years of accounting/finance and computer science will get you far.

Learn a trade, join a union to be a plumber or welder or something that interests you and work your way up. They start green people low because turnover rates are high, but there's always room for more money to the people that do good work.

Who’s the guy that’s calling the bust?

I feel like it’s coming around 2020 too so would be cool to read some articles on it, learn some new things and prepare for the great JUSTening

>small motorycle
kek ur not gonna make it brainlet

Become an electrician apprentice, climb the union ladder. My buddy takes night classes and works as an electrician, took him 2 years to get into the union, and once’s he’s finished with schooling and x amount of years go by he will be guaranteed 110k a year.

Before I knew all that I asked him to apprentice my old boss and takeover his business when he passes, he didn’t want the stress of owning his own business and he’ll live comfortably anyway. More than I can say as a desk jockey

If I knew what I know now at your age:

1. Go to finance firm for entry level position

2. Get liscensed to trade securities and speak to clients, series 7 & 63, they will pay for it

3. Put your time in, volunteer for new shit to learn more, see if they'll pay for your CFA, get CFA

You can't be a brainlet but you don't have to be a genius. Cheap way to have tools to make bank

Go to college and sell weed to your classmates, you will get an education and make more than you would fill time wage cycling at a McCuckolds. Just don’t get caught and even if you do it’s a slap on the wrist and you can get your felony expunged in 3-5 years.

College isn't a prereq, but most of the people I work with have a degree. Job market is saturated with higher education.

Kek that is the biggest scam ever which will lock you in wagecuckery for ever

I live with my mother and wageslave not even full time, I've been out of HS 3 years now, I can't see a way out at all.
thinking about going back to college for a cybersec degree that's most interesting to me but after monthly expenses left with nothing, I mean and I could save about an extra 100 a month but I spend it on food. america isn't for me.
wish my parents weren't greedy fags chasing the 'good life' dragging me around with them when i was young.
now we're all fucking poor

Sauce on the financial collapse in 2020? I’m listening fren I should have 100-150k in savings by then and currently own 0 boomer stocks. I reckon when the market Plummets and I can buy cheap I’ll set myself up for life whenever this bubble pops. I literally don’t understand how normies can’t look at graphs comparing how wages have barely gone up in 20-30 years yet housing costs and cost of living have fucking doubled.

Develop a skill of your choice in your free-time until that can become your job, til then you're locked in the wagecage

I'm in your boat fren.

I got too sick of it and started studying a medical degree part-time. Quit my job because it was making me depressed and now my money is fucked. I can make the rent but it means I have to dip into savings and sacrifice my ISA bonus for a few months. The only jobs going near me are retail and jesus christ fuck retail.

I just hope when I finally qualify I won't hate it. Starting salaries for my specialism - audiology - are shit (around £25k in the NHS) and only significantly increase if you get a few years experience and start working for a private practice (£45k+). But when you go private you need to be a good salesman. I'm a terrible salesman and have been fired twice from sales jobs. So then I'm stuck in the NHS where every single patient is a fucking moron and doesn't listen to what you tell them.

I just want to make it. I need to start a business because that seems the only way out, but I'm totally clueless as to what that would be. And I definitely won't have the capital for at least five years.

I've never been in your position, but that's exactly why I want to give you my 2 cents.

My advice is you start your very own business, what service/product you will sell I have no idea, has to be something you understand quite well and preferably something you like(although not necessary, which is my case) I can see you like money so that's all you need to actually like.
You will work 10, 12, 14 maybe even 16 hours/day for some years until you get established(hey I didn't say it was easy, if you want to work 9 to 5 everyday you wont make it to the good life).
You will fail plenty of times. enough to make you want to quit, but don't. It's easier to learn through your mistakes, and you need to adapt to the different scenarios and opportunities you will be presented with.
Also it's good to have some accountability knowledge.

That's it. Go get rich, 15 years from now post your boat picture here please. Thank you.

Jow Forums has poisoned my mind desu.

All I can think about when I work for someone else is that I'm cucking myself. I will literally never be happy with a job.

I trained martial arts for thirty years and lived like a vagabond mostly single the whole time. Now i can charge money for what i know, have all the things, wife kids house car, go to bed thinking of my work tomorrow, get up happy.
Always busy, always tired.

If you don't know anything worth money, you have to do something worth money.

I mean people will shot post college but if you literally do not have an idea for what you want to do next go to your local in state CC for like 6k a semester in a useful degree.

Not bad advice

Hur dur college is useless

Do not listen to this dumb motherfucker op.

Take your ass to a tradeschool and learn anything they order for six months of your time or less. Reassess after a year

stop all non essential purchases
start donating blood plasma for $
after that rent the absolute cheapest place you can find
once you’re out you can loosen up a bit
you’re fucked job wise but you can still probably save enough to live how you want outside of work

Do people really look down on electricians? I guess I wouldn't be surprised. Jokes on them though. Great pay and low overhead makes starting a business easy too. Go for this, OP.

That is a good thing though. Use these thoughts to do something of your own. The goal is to be your own boss.

Pick a vocation

College, no. Vocational school, yes.
