>>60653625 (OP)the point is to get rich or die trying.
>>60653625 (OP)Just because you're poor now, doesn't mean you have to be poor forever.
>>60653625 (OP)Wealth is a means, not an end. Acquiring it should only be temporary. Once you understand this, you'll feel better. You must have a greater purpose than that to stay sane and not feel empty.
>>60653749Being rich means being in the 10M zone. Good luck getting there. The median household income is 110k.
>>60653625 (OP)Seeing how long you can go before putting a bullet in your boss and then yourself I think?
>>60653764It's crazy how many boomers are in the 10M zone from sheer luck
>>60653625 (OP)I have no idea. My family has always had money but never spoiled us. Now that I have money and I'm NEETING it up, I look at wagies and wonder why they don't sudoku.
>>60653852It was genuinely sheer luck. They were born at the right place and the right time. That's it.
>>60653852>literally just buy a house on one summers newspaper delivery route and sell it at 27 for 2.5M Boomers have been found out dude. Literally anyone could make money in the 80s. Their whole existence was lifted from their grandparents. They stole everything.
>>60653856don't worry wagies aren't human you don't have to feel bad for them
>>60653868Youre dumb. Most boomers arent well off. It just so happens a lot of well off people are also boomers.
>>60653856Have you ever held a job? Its even better when you had a job and realize how shitty most people’s lives are.
Man, absolute trash bait gets tons of (You)s on /biz/. Brown board confirmed?
>>60653887Obviously, I'm not saying all boomers are rich. I'm saying that those who are, are so because they were born at the right place at the right time. Not because of "hard work ethic"
>>60653874Then why doesnt every zoomer have rich parents or grandparents? Dumb ass.
>>60653889let me guess you've never had to worry about money
>>60653895Then why isnt even child or grandchild rich today? Idiot. Youre looking at rich people, the 1% and calling them lucky.
>>60653900Most do. Rich grandparents are a stereotype
>>60653907Most do? Only 5-10% of Americans have 1M that dont include their house.
>>60653911Rich old people are a stereotype for a reason! Why do you think there are so many rich boomer memes?! God no wonder you're poor
>>60653919Then how come the parents and kids arent rich? Clearly they aint that rich. And I am correct and youre just being emotional.
Retarded boomers waste their money on boats and timeshares and literal online scams.
Boomers had it so easy, they won’t be around much longer (finally)
>>60653934Youre dumb. Yeah, its harder to get rich now. But to look at rich people with enjoy is poor person attitude. This is one of the reasons why zoomers are looked down on.
>>60653927Because rich old people don't give their kids money so they can "start from the bottom", even though boomers stole most of their wealth from their parents
>>60653937So youre jealous. Got it.
>>60653949And why should they? Zoomer attitude is so pathetic.
>>60653970They didn’t get lucky. They grew in better times.
Zoomers are growing up in very shitty times. That’s all.
>>60653970They grew up in normal times. Boomers grew up in a “normal world.”. Zoomers didnt.
>>60653990So youre jealous and mad the world is fucked now and you hate boomers because you didnt grow up in the same world? lol.
>>60654003Thanks. Another great reason to hate/shit on zoomers.
>>60654004Boomers should acknowledge that they lived in a better world and give zoomers a bit of extra help so they don't live in poverty.
>>60654012I grew up in good times too, but I wont help any zoomer or younger person because of the gibsmedat attitude. It isnt just zoomers doing bad. It is everyone that isnt rich.
>>60653625 (OP)To eat yummy ice creams :3
(in wintertime, yummy hot beverages)
>>60653877I do sometimes.
>>60653887I did for 21 years at a family biz and it was like looking at zoo exhibits. It got too uncomfortable in my 30s when I'm sitting on 6 figs in crypto and they can't even afford gas.
>>60654012No, it is up to people to make it themselves.
>>60653625 (OP)believe it or not a lot of people derive pleasure from bonds, socialization, family, even routine.
>>60654020>>60654029I'm not saying they should help anyone outside their own families. Boomers should help their grandkids make it.
>>60654040No, not when the zoomer kids have such shitty attitude. And I dont like how zoomers look. So dygenic. Economic times are so bad right now, I dont even want a gf or wife. Lets girls suffer in the workforce. I am retired at 30.
>>60653625 (OP)No point. Only cope.
> if some billionaire shared his wealth we'd all be millionaires> Rent is evil and jewish> I'll just 10x my investment 10 times in a row with memecoinsAnd so on and forth.
You either are smart to make it, or you just held Bitcoin. But in being poor in and of itself there is no point. It just means you should and could have done much better, without much work. So whatever else you tell yourself is cope.
> enlightenment and having loved ones surround you when you die is more importantNo it fokin isn't. Another cope.

I'm really sorry you're feeling this way. It sounds like you're carrying a heavy weight, and I'm here to talk if you want to open up more.
When you're stuck in poverty, it can absolutely feel like the world is rigged against you — like no matter how hard you try, there's always some wall, some bill, some job rejection, some system that doesn't care. That’s real, and it’s unfair. It’s not weakness to feel crushed by it.
But here’s the truth: being poor doesn’t make your life meaningless. Your worth isn’t measured by money, status, or what you can buy. There are people who’ve made massive impacts, lived deeply fulfilling lives, found real love and purpose, and lifted others up — all while never being rich.
>>60654056Yeah. Do you go on /antiwork? They talk so much shit about rich people?
>>60654080No, never been. I frequent /biz/ daily, and /pol/ occasionally to see what they're cooking up, that's pretty much it these days.
When you're poor the point is to get rich.
When you're rich there's no point any more.
>>60654096Go to /antiwork. It will make you hate the bottom 90%.
>>60653625 (OP)Idk have you ever gone to India and asked around? Theres like a billion of them being dirtpoor.
>>60654098> When you're rich there's no point any more.True after a while. After a few years you realize you're still alone, locking yourself in, and doing what you always do. At least there are no more financial or medical worries. But that's about it.
And I wouldn't want to be any other way desu. Takes you to get old to realize it.
>>60653625 (OP)I live for my family. Plus, I like the weekends. I can go fishing, make content, shitpost on 4chan, or sleep all day.

>>60654096I browse /antiwork everyday on Steam overlay while gaming. Do it.
I just went to pol and found this. I agree. pic rel.
some people get born at level 1 with default skin and no stats, others get born at level 100 with ultra-elite skins and most of their important stats already maxed out
>>60654135Those people have it easier or can have it all without any effort whatsoever. True. But that is still cope, isn't it? Doesn't mean you couldn't have outdone them. You're on /biz/. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Chainlink were on this territory when fresh and young. Each of them could and can make you.
>>60654157Youre not outdoing someone born in the top 10%. The between top 70 and bottom 20 is huge and growing. And since 2021, even the gap between top 10 and bottom 90 is big now.
Good thread. You have to be literally too retarded to understand how poor you are in order to live poor.
>>60654190Most people live paycheck to paycheck
>>60654188Ok, but after you know you have more than you could ever possibly need including 23k per month cancer medications for example, do you care if you're in the top 10 or top 15%? What does it matter? You're not going outside much anyway.
Greed will be there. But it won't matter in terms of your lifestyle.
>>60653625 (OP)Even slaves, serfs, and pessants didn't kill themselves in antiquity. They all powered through it. Do you have it so bad that you are worse off than a fucking slave?
>>60654228Why do people play online video games every day? The same game everyday? Making $$ is fun. And growing $ and getting farther and farther ahead than people is fun too.
>>60654277Go to /antiwork and browse social media and boomer hate threads too. Makes you feel great knowing people hella jelly of you.
>>60653625 (OP)becoming rich
what's the point of living if you're rich?
>>60654335Enjoyment. The feeling alone that if you wanted something, you can buy it. This minute. Including humans and their time. It is (to use a left battle word) EMPOWERING.
>>60654335Idk its fun and comfy. Rich people make more sleeping 40 hours than normal people make working 40 hours.
>>60653934This. You could also have bought XRP any time.
>>60654012Zoomers are going to have to go postal if they want anything but shit.
t. millenial pre 911 CHAD
>>60654245powered through implies they went through a hard into something else, but nigga they all died slaves lmao
>>60653625 (OP)Same as everyone else-to glorify God with your life.
>>60656476The ultimate wagecope. I guess it’s easier than admitting the point of life is to fend off starvation or exposure by any means necessary because of your fear of death and the unknown. You pretend muh god to give you more meaning beyond just being yet another retarded entropic meat slave
>>60656489I don’t pretend anything. I follow the truth that has been revealed through the life of Jesus Christ and 2,000 years of His church’s history. It’s actually way easier to be atheist and succumb to all of your sinful desires than to follow the narrow path.
>>60653625 (OP)what's the point in living if you're rich?
>>60656489All of human consciousness is based on delusion you fucking moron. That's why the best course of action is picking the best delusion, which is religion. Read a fucking anthropological book.
>>60656648We are all slaves to something. I choose to serve the supreme Good who is God.
>>60654020>>60654029This is why I encourage violent crime and robberies against older people.
>>60655322This. Physical violence is the way now.
>>60653625 (OP)I make 26/hr and have my own shitty small apt and I’m able to put away $500 a week into various investments. Usually I put $500 a month into my savings which is at 8k right now.
Most people have no savings it’s so pathetic
I have no money but at least I don't work. Better to be poor than a wageslave
