Fuck sake guys. I got 12k premium bonds. I got 3.4k In peer

Local business 20-50% annualized ROI

Real Estate 8-20%

I feel like I'm in that weird place, I'm not poor, but I still dont have enough money to really get into development, that's where the money is.

>that's where the money is

He's better off than 80% of the USA.
>0-18: School, part time work
>18-22: College, work (scholarships don't cover more than tuition [entry fee] for average whites)
>23-26: Work, pay off student loans, buy a replacement used car
>27-30: pay 10-20% down on a condo or home, save up

Honestly financial independence doesn't even start until 30 for most people anymore. I made 40k from 23-4, 70k at 25, and 80k at 26 and 27 (now). Too little money and too many fees early on.

What are you involved in? You made a big jump from 24-25 in terms of what you made.

>>1637815

Tech. I did IT for $8.50 - $9.25 per hour for the school in college, got a degree in Computer Science, got into a mix of IT (Active Directory shit) and customer support where they paid me 40k, then left that company for Deployment Engineering, which is basically where I maintain and update the software testing environment for 100 pajeet programmers.

You can definitely get good jobs if you work hard, but there's a delay these days. If you don't have connections they want proof that you don't suck, and getting that proof takes a few years.

lel, i was fuckin spot on.

>>1637821
wew lad, do you watch me in the shower too?

>unemployed self-studying
Nigger you better be applying to 20+ field specific positions per week.

i study 3D and i already had some work freelancing online.

it will probably take me another year to get good enough for studio work. since im also disabled (injured) i have to wait until my disability checks runs out until i can find real work.
i can't rely on those damn disability checks forever

I'm a radiographer in London, Uk. I do ok. The thing is, here in London, if you want a 1 bedroom flat, its like £600K. 1 million isnt even considered that much here. I've lived in other parts of the country and there just isnt the opportunity. I have this capital, I just need to make it work more for me. Unless I stick with this peer to peer 12% shit. Even then Im looking at years and years and years before it gets me anywhere.

>>1637856
Yeah nah ur fucked m8. Radiography is city-only kind of work. Getting hired under work visa in a southern US city could help, and if you stay fit you will drown in bitches with a non-cockney english accent. Other than that you're literally stuck, no road to riches during your youth.

Your kids or grandkids have a shot at being rich thanks to your efforts, which is better than most, but only if you're willing to do the sacrifice.
