No future

[honkpilleddoomer]

I basically have no future. I dont see anything lying ahead, all i see is misery and slaving away in a retail or menial job for life. I'm too low iq and poor to ever go to college or get a degree. Its a soul crushing experience , i dont belong there, It's better to take action now instead of suffering more in future.

Sorry that you feel this way I relate too heavily, (and retail jobs fucking suck). I think you are smart in the fact that you don't want to be forced into a painful job the rest of your life, and honestly a shitty degree shouldn't measure the complete success/failure of an individual. It's a shitty cold world we live in.

Its easy to feel that way now. If I had to do it over in this day and age I wouldn't even bother with school. By the time one finishes, they rack up a sh*tload of debt that they can't even payoff with said career. Between rent and food sucking all money out the bank, one can barely afford the loan payments or the car payments to go back and forth to said career.

I always think about simplistic characters like Edward scissor hands making a super profitable business out of something as simple as cutting lawns hoping that everyone has some gift to share. Might be a long shot but still gonna ask. Are there any skillsets or deep interests you have that you can turn into a money-maker?

Im pessimistic about the direction this world is going in too as well as my earnings prospects. Its one of my primary reasons for exiting sooner rather than naturally.

I believe that it's true that so many humans exist just to be slaves to this society until they decay from old age and die anyway, life undeniably is such a futile process that is completely unnecessary. It's very much understandable wishing to finally be free from all suffering as existing certainly can be torture.

Well, that might not be good advice, but specifically about money, i personally gave up on the traditional school-job system years ago. It is hard to recommend it to any normal person, but you might try looking into alternative methods if u want. I mean stuff like investing, business, freelancing - all mostly online ways of generating revenue. I know a little bit about this and a lot about specifically trading(for me that is gambling with extra steps). I consider myself a crazy professional gambler, so that is not i would recommend to anyone in a normal situation, but we are at the wit's end here.
