How do normies cope with spending 40+ years in the wagecage?

>>60544241 (OP)
by going insane

this guy probably made it

>>60544241 (OP)
they have children and sacrifice everything for them without realising the slavery of it all. it's a vicious cycle

>>60544241 (OP)
Normies have social lives and have lots of sex and family which makes the wage life bearable for them

>>60544252
Tfw when retired at 30.

>>60544295
How much did you have before saying fuck it?

For me? By joining the military, Unironically. I’m 28 and only have 10 years to go. Not for everyone though ofc.

>>60544241 (OP)
It's wagie cagie for you, but for them it's just daycare.
They don't give a shit.

>>60544241 (OP)
Don't forget taking out a loan so that you can better serve your corporate masters.

If my parents die I could retire just with their inheritance
But I love my parents I don't want them to die.
Also after they die I will kys anyway

>>60544241 (OP)
by having kids. they drink alcohol with their friends every weekend and take a vacation once a year, but more importantly being a parent keeps their mind off it because the responsibilities are massive so you don't have a choice but to provide.

>>60544241 (OP)
All you need to do is stack physical silver, GME, and then start stacking "yield max" ETFs until your bills are covered. Go get a second job if you have to. But that is the correct play in the year 2025. Protect yourself from monetary collapse (silver, physical and in your own possession), market crash (GME - short squeeze. Look at Volkswagen in 2008). And if the banks can kick the can forever, then just sit back and be a comfy-boy with TSLY and others. Don't go chasing yield until you have massive stacks of GME and silver though. Be smart.

>>60544304
What do you mean “fuck it?”

Religion. Civic duty. Alcohol.

Normie life is shit. If I want to know how shitty normie life is, all I have to do is set my alarm for 6:30 am before I sleep and force myself out the house at 7:30am. Feels terrible.

>>60544241 (OP)
The government literally prints money and OBLIGATES you and everybody else to use that fake money.
They also charge taxes from you to pay for the said (((costs))) of print that same money.
Not that being enough, they reduce the tax proportion that goes to education, health etc to pay for bond interests. Default payments for 1000 ultrarich bankers is way way way worse for them than 300 million voters living in poverty.

And if you try to do the same (print your own money), they call it a crime and punish you with jail.

Basically I see zero reason on playing by the rules under these conditions. I think every people should employ whatever means to get a dignified life regardless if your government likes this or not.

>>60544403
Fuck it i quit

> The government literally prints money and OBLIGATES you and everybody else to use that fake money.
>cantilllon effect
You have to be close to the money printer to benefit.
>>60544445
Thought you were implying “gave up.” lol. When I realized I didnt need to work and could still have a higher sol than most.

>>60544459
>cantilllon effect

I know that. If that's the justificative just shut down democracy already and openly admits we live in an aristocracy, because only the elites can benefit from fresh printed money anyway.

>>60544470
Well, everyone benefits.

>>60544252
This
Its kind of weird
And then always the 5% of excess men who dont find a wife realize it. I think 50 years ago they used to just drink like crazy everyday in bars and die young.

>>60544470
>>60544482
Banks benefit the most.

>>60544241 (OP)
I remember this thread

>>60544492
Oh, what about the asset class?

>>60544443
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZDWuXPa8Es

>>60544498
What asset class? Banks benefit as they can give credits with almost no backings effectively create money by that. The government also profits by basically printing the money when the fed buys their debts. You can hold asssets to slightly profit.
Thats how i see it.

>>60544506
The capitalist class benefits greatly. Asset prices go through the roof with money printing

>>60544506
Like I said, the closer you are to the money printer the more you benefit. Cantillon effect.

>>60544416
This. I was on the verge of suicide from wagie life and the alarm and then I just said nope, no more, I ain’t playing this game anymore. Now I am everyone else’s problem. If we all had the courage and insanity to do what I did, corporate profits would tank globally and it would either collapse or wages and conditions would get much better right away to retain workers. We need a massive population die off so human labor becomes valuable again; it’s the only way.

>there are people on this very board who arn't investing 50% of the their gross yearly income

NGMI. its not even hard these days, give 1/4th of a shit, which is about 3/8ths of a shit more than the average person gives, and you'll stand out like a rock star.

>>60544530
> corporate profits would tank globally and it would either collapse or wages and conditions would get much better right away to retain workers
And the rich would be affected and people would lose their jobs and the workers end up homeless. Dont forget, the rich subsidize everything.

>>60544510
Kys shill

>>60544611
I thought this was /biz/ where everyone wants to become part of the capitalist class

>>60544544
>there are people only investing 50% of their paycheck
this is sad dude, do you also make 'passive income' with a high interest savings account? lmao

Quit drinking.
Yes indeed. The one day you get fuckdd up a week IS ruining your life.
>but I drink every day
Even worse.

>>60544482
How exactly the common Joe, that sees prices getting twice higher (while his wage stays the same), benefits shit?

>demoralisation thread #385748
will you fucking redditors please stop bumping this shit and lurk moar

>>60544663
He has a job. More welfare and services that pretty much feed the wildlife. The common joe bitches and moans while having a job and chilling on his latest iphone in his no responsibilities rental where the landlord bears all burdens and costs. He works a job, like retail, which the investor class opened up and has no responsibilities outside of clocking in and out.
The average joe has no responsibilities outside of his work hours.

>>60544530
That's really brave Anon and I respect you.

>>60544333
you could have left after a few years with 100% disability. And made more on the outside. You just like waging.

>>60544670
>>60544680
>>60544667
GO BACK YOU CANCER

>>60544683
Lmao eat and die you servile cuckold.

>>60544667
It's only demoralising if you plan to be a wagecuck your whole life. Otherwise threads like this should motivate you to escape the wagecage

>>60544683
How is this reddit? All reddit does is bitch about rich people.

>>60544670
>having a job is actually a privilege, goy!
Next time please tell me you're a moron before engaging in discussion. Thanks.

>>60544692
This thread is posted almost daily. Multiple interactions exist in the catalog. Designed to make anons fixate on the negatives in their lives. To distract and prevent them from putting into action escaping the wage cage, the original reason they came to this board to begin with.

>How do normies cope with spending 40+ years in the wagecage?
they climb the career ladder to get more and more money from richer and richer employers, until they can retire or start their own business

>>60544241 (OP)
>spending 40+ years in the wagecage?

40 years of putting aside 10% a year for retirement,
Retire a millionaire

im almost near my mid 30s and i havent even started wagecucking

From what a single 10x? not happening unless you were fully invested with $200k and held until now.

>>60544838
So…the capitalist class dont invest and create jobs, what happens to the average joe?

>>60544241 (OP)
I save around 80% of my net income. My employer is overpaying me because they know it will take months to find a proper replacement to me, and even then he will very likely fuck off ASAP.
>>60544249
Kek I've been on /biz/ since 2017. I never made any big gains because I was always a pussy. I remember waiting for ETH to go back under $100 so I could buy in, and watched it as it reached ATH while being sidelined. I remember laughing at linkies when it was around $2. I made gains only in the memecoin era but lost most of it.
>>60544897
I got my first real job at 32.

>>60544241 (OP)
Bump

>>60544252
I had a child whom I have full custody as a single dad because his mother is a mess.

I wagecuck because I must provide for my son and hopefully after my death he won’t have to wagecuck.

I make around 80k, 23.5k goes to my Roth 403b, 20k in treasury bonds series I and EE and 7K a year into my ROTH IRA.

After taxes that leaves me with around 23-27k which usually ends up 5k in the stock market trading account, 5k set aside in savings new car, repairs to my home and 3k for that yearly vacation for my son and I.

I’m set once I get to retirement age and my son will be set too when I die.

Religion and duty help deal with all the bullshit of a wagecuck.

>>60544241 (OP)
i have no idea
idk how i even made it this far (7 years in). dozens, hundreds of times even the depression from wagecucking has made me almost quit or commit sudoku

>>60546284
Very impressive, anon! What are your living expenses that you are able to save/invest that much? Do you make 80k before or after tax?

By having disposable income and not having their sanity and sense of well being linked to the random and predatory fluctuations of a free market

>>60544241 (OP)
by having a wfh job that's somewhat interesting. i would probably kill myself if i lost my wfh job, which is why im going to start a side business that is related to my job and will also be wfh.

>>60546284
and then you find out your sont wants to be a women. what will you do then ?

this is why i have 5 children with 3 differnt ladies.

>>60546284
>I provide all living expenses for myself and my son with $10k a year
Either you're getting a lot of child support or you're full of shit. Considering where we are, I'm betting on the latter.

>>60545063
>I got my first real job at 32.
Holy shit. I might just make it.

>>60544243
Yes, actually. That is what a "mid life crisis" is. It is typically triggered when a middle age wagie realizes that it was all a waste of time for nothing and they desperately try to cope by suddenly living in an uncharacteristically dangerous fashion seemingly out of nowhere.

>>60545063
>I got my first real job at 32.
I'm curious, how did you adjust to that change after spending all of your 20s as a neet?

>>60544443
>The government literally prints money and OBLIGATES you and everybody else to use that fake money.
You're not one of those "Liberty Dollar" terrorists are you?

I had some sort of a Gandalf the grey -> Gandalf the white moment. My brain burnt out so hard from years of playing games and being a bum. Nothing felt fun anymore and out of sheer boredom I decided to get a job. Luckily for me I have big brains and I'm sociopathic enough to lie my way through interviews.
Still a virgin though so there's that, although I could lose it if I weren't too picky.

idk. i got mine. retired at 30.

>>60544838
yes you retard... having the opportunity to earn money just with your time, especially for people who cannot create things themselves, is a good thing.

>>60544241 (OP)
Quit and get a better job.
Read books about making money
Buy Bitcoin

>>60544333
I'm literally useless and I used my time in to make high risk high reward investments because a paycheck and housing is guaranteed. Can't code, wont learn, dont want to go to school, dont want to wage after. Learned a big deal about the stock market though. Lol.

>spent another week night crying and drinking myself to sleep in order to endure thoughts of having to work tomorrow

>>60544622
Not sure how this is a jab, I literally pay some of my bills this way.

>>60549065
What the hell do you do

>>60544394
This retarded subhuman will literally bankrupt you.
Don't listen to him.

>>60544482
The working class doesnt benefit from money printing
