This one is pretty good to start.
I also would recommend to buy some index stuff and get some experience. You can't do to much harm when buying dips from big companies.
Do some research first though if it is something temporarily.

Good luck mate. Wasn't to long ago I was in a position similar to yours. Just keep working hard and you eventually come out on top.

I think what anon meant is "keep trying" and do something more other than complain. I was the anon that he replied too and that's what I took away from his words.

And if you a job, you will be too tired and depressed at your boring ass job to enjoy your little free time.

You can't win. The only way to balance the pain of a mediocre life would be being good looking.

This is 100% true.

USE THE TUITION ASSISTANCE AND GET YOUR DEGREE ASAP. Not only will you be way fucking more prepared when you get out, you will also be promoted way fucking faster while you're still in. In fact, depending on branch, the OTS board is basically guaranteed to let you in if you have a year or two of active service, a clean record, and a college degree.

The best are free CLEP

I used to take them for fun on subjects i barely knew shit about. I CLEPd like 21 credits and used my air force training for credits.

>>1484456

Then i transfered all those bullshit credits to a shitty accreditted online school, then tranfered those credits to a real reputable school

Youre right poor stupid people work hard for money, smart people let their assets and poor peole work hard for them.

I'd get ready to buy some index stuff. Wait until that crash boi

>>1484558
So you're holding off on investing until the crash comes? Or ate you putting your money towards companies that would benifits from the crash ?
