Is 21 years old too late to turn your life around?

40, MAYBE. 21? No. Not at all.

Noone expects you to be a badass until your 30, at which point, the clock really starts ticking.

Just don't be a shitter the next 9 years and pick up a marketable skill. You'll be fine.

Id say the clock ticks @ 40 for men

And around 23-30 for women.

Men look better with age and typically also earn much better with age.

No. I was 27 when I went back to school. 32 when I passed the CPA exam. 34 when I got married.

21 is still young.

Dude, I'm almost 24 and I graduated university and am unemployed.

I wish I didn't have to work. I don't eat much. I don't waste any water. I only use my laptop and exercise. I try to be a good human being, but this current construct is forcing me to perform work in order to survive.

Whenever I talk about basic income, people call me a communist. Yet they will accept bitcoin some day. They always change. Basic income is a 200 year old idea. We have the technology to implement it if we really wanted.

All I want to do is buy a good PC and hang out with strangers on the internet.

Seriously. People make life far more complicated than it needs to be.

>>2388838
Well said.

>>2388174
Fuck yeah dude/m'lady

>tfw 30 and still yet to turn your life around

>>2388198
take crypto buy some shrooms. take. reassess life. even the most pussy will survive it

>>2388838
Once crypto takes off and people see how memes make you money, they will reevalute what money really is.

Maybe it will simply make them wish for Basic Income, because all their years of work are for nothing compared to crypto gains and they see it as unfair.

he's right though, if you're counting holding at an ATH as "making 50k" then you're just as subject to to a crash/pullback and you haven't made 50k at all

im 23 still havent done anything with my post high school life but sell massive amounts of drugs and acquire crypto.

Best paying job I could get right now is a server. Only experience I have is a couple years as a dishwasher and some organic farm stuff. I have no resume, no schooling after high school etc...

but hey at least i've got about 315k in crypto right now.

I could actually afford any college i want if i decide to go that route, or I could start a business. or just continue being a fucking NEET and letting almost every one down in my life who had high hopes for me.

>>2389125
>but hey at least i've got about 315k in crypto right now.

i say keep trading crypto. if you have 300k now you'll be more than sorted in 3-4 years.

Its never too late to turn your life around, but its usually around 30-35 years of age when society expects you to have established something for yourself.

As a matter of fact, life hasn't even begun for someone aged 21 and you're in for either one of the best or one of the worst decades of your life.

Most of my gains are from putting all my drug money into bitcoin when it was 400-600, havent really made much trading just holding. I've been involved with btc since fall 2012 I remember buying a pound of weed on SR for like 250 bitcoin. lots of stupid examples like that. Finally after witnessing the 2nd and 3rd bubble after selling all my cheap coin and sitting on hefty sum of cash from selling drugs I have made an earnest effort to not fucking miss out this time.

and its paid off so far!

For the record I'm holding bitcoin, litecoin, and ethereum.

and yes. I feel quite fortunate now, but 3-4 years from now I agree i should be more than sorted... we will have to wait and see! :)

Fag! I'm 62 and I have made 8 bitcoins for holding the last 5 1/2 months.

The worst thing during your young adult era isn't having no money, but nothing to live for in your life.
When you finished school you're suddenly lost, no one tells you what to do, can't find a job you can stick with for a long time, nothing you can enjoy, no friends, no relationships. Seeing yourself at the end of the youth and already foresee yourself stuck in the same ground 30 years into the futuer

No bridge is too high...and the older you get the less friends you have so less people to mourn you, might as well off yourself now

I'm 23 and I fucking hate my life. Been working at this restaurant for 6 yrs. now and I want to leave. All my coworkers are high school and college drop outs. I am also a college drop out. I dropped out because I hated my major and I felt like I was just wasting my time there. I was constantly depressed and I just wanted to die. I've been trying to get another job, but no one wants to hire a college drop out who's only worked at shitty jobs. I can't even get a simple desk job that only requires a high school diploma.

I've changed majors like 3 times now and I'm still unhappy. I’ve been told to go into trade, but it’s not something I can see myself going into. Also, I’m not very fit physically or mentally, so I can’t go into the military. I thought about getting an IT cert, but that’s not really going to well for me. A lot of my coworkers are fine with working at the restaurant, and just pretending everything is fine, but I'm not. I want to leave, but I just can’t find out how.

I have thought about going back to community college and retaking some classes, but at the same time I just feel like I will still be wasting my time there.

>>2390117
christ that really hits close to home.

at this point though I've started to wonder why I should even bother, nothing seems like it's worth it. I don't have any real interest in anything and just watch the hours fly by. I have no idea what it is people do that's fulfilling. and I can't even be bothered to regret the mistakes you mentioned in your post.

I know it sounds like sour grapes or something but I honestly can't bring myself to give a shit about a single thing in life, even if I struck it rich on memecoins I have no idea what I would do with the money other than take care of my basic needs, I'm long past wanting any fancy material things.

I've been suffering from major depression for nearly 12 years. I just graduated and have a job lined up. Learning to trade cryptos. Got about $1000 worth of holdings. Gonna spend more once I get the job. I don't have many needs or wants. I know I can do well. Most people start seriously investing in retirement in their 40s or 50s. They're gonna be alright. So am I

>study abroad, build a life abroad

Found a great got jap waifu who,is down to earth. Stable job. Finally gonna invest in crypto after putting it off.

My only advice is to be careful who you fuck/befriend and don't wresklessly spend when you're depressed. Just keep trying new things and set goals that are achievable now, then expand them.

26 now, feel like 21 was grade school.

Judging by this question you're a specially retarded 21 yr old so for you it is too late indeed.

i wish i could be 21 again. easy mode.

-live with parentss
-work any job, hell get two jobs if you can handle it
-put 80% of monthly income into crypto (eth, ark, waves, etc)
-Enjoy being a multi millionaire by the time you're 30.

So I guess 7 maybe 13 years of a horrible internet-culture fueled generation of idiots and PC degenerates isn't going to kill the planet just yet, right?

Why did Superman not arrive in time? We need to turn back time now and nobody even remembers how good the 2000s were.

its not too late untill you hit 45-50 desu

This thread is a fucking joke. Just an excuse to whine about lack of direction and show off about crypto gains. No one is handed a direction in life, but the general tone of the replies here is how everyone seems to be waiting for the right moment or when opportunity presents itself. Opportunities are literally around you, not to mention how everyone complaining is in their early 20s. Stop making excuses and decide on a goal that's going to get you somewhere, or nothing is ever gonna change.

It really is not healthy, Anon.
I had barely any friends until around 25. I'm 31 now.
I had buds but we'd mainly just do hard drugs together.
Eventually moved to a different country, started over a bit, work in nightlife now full of weirdos, make a liveable wage, have a social life with people I genuinely love and respect. I am in an open relationship and have 3 partners that I don't even have enough time to see. They threw me a surprise birthday party last month with about 25 of my closest friends. I keep thinking how this contrasts to me 10 years ago, where I had no friends and was living in a small town in the middle of nowhere in Texas.

I am so incredibly happy.

And I'm finally getting ahead money wise with about $135k in crypto. I set a goal of earning $100k, and have been taking out 50% of my earnings over until I get out my initial investment of $28kish, and letting the rest ride.

You are going to be okay, anon. Realizing you need to change ~something~ is the first step. Don't have to be drastic as I was, but not resigning yourself to the life you got is important.

should i even start in crypto if i have $3k to spend?
what to do? that's all i have :(

We've been raised in a cult of the education industrial complex. Education is more revered in our fucked up society than money.

If you take a risk and succeed, that's considered evil and bad. Oh but if you're a good cuck and get into $100k debt to complete your masters degree, then we throw parties and celebrate in your honor.

I'm at the age where my friends are all graduating college. I made $250k in the last two months and no one gives a fuck. No one is throwing parties in my honor, nobody is congratulating me. No, to them it's invisible money and I'll always be the college drop out to them who failed school. Parents point at successful college drop outs and tell their kids they are a bad example and that they should stay in cuck school to be """successful""" because they're outliers. They are not outliers.

This is exactly why Trump didn't get 80% of the vote, because of this stigma against success, risk taking and hard work. We're bred to be servile, pathetic cucks afraid of our own shadow and we attack anything that tries to uplift us or hints at a change in the prerogative. And to this day I'm still afraid sometimes, not really as bold or as much of a risk taker as I should be.

"Money is expendable, education is not" is a big fat lie. You can earn an education just about anywhere, and in the internet age, school has become an antiquated institution slowly rusting away. The degrees we earn are simply tokens of rank and acceptance into the current governing bodies of the world that determine your destiny.

I'm here to tell you that they can go fuck themselves because humanity is rising and their enslavement of humanity and pillaging of our treasuries is about to end. No. I will not live in a cucked sized apartment and live paycheck to paycheck paying everything toward rent and student loans. No, I will not be silenced and see my free speech get suppressed. That is slavery.

I'm turning 22 soon, and I'm not going back to college, I already fell for that meme once and refuse to fall for it again.

I would ideally like to start my own business and eventually make my own films, but I know how difficult and unrealistic that probably is. What do you older-fags recommend?

All i got is $1400 in crypto, 1k cash, a 2016 car with 11k miles on it. paid off.

oh i also have no college and i quit my job yesterday.

feeling pretty lost

im 29. spent most of my time in my room. didnt have much sex or any gf. the times ive probably fucked is less than 20. everyone i know had gone to music concerts, places with friends, probably had threesomes, lots of one night stands with girls, and a social life.
im just getting into crypto and going all in because for the past 9 years i was a bedroom producer because i had nowhere else to go to do, shitty friends too.
i dont feel too bad now not getting out of the house because im seeing returns just from my first 4 days, dont care if they are small because im going to go all in later.
my first purchase will be getting a petite slut. i made a promise that ill never go a year without getting a piece of ass when i hit 30s.

Didn't bother reading the thread.

Do it, OP. If you don't do it now you will regret it constantly until you finally do something about it in your late 20s/early 30s (which still isn't too late) and hate yourself because of all the time you missed if you would have acted in your early 20s.

The older you get, the less age matters. It's not a meme when I say men who aren't Chad don't actually get to start living their lives until their late 20s. Women can get whatever they want and do whatever they want starting at 16 just because of their pussy but guys have to claw their way up the ladder to obtain resources through hard work.

People turn their lives around into their 50s 60s 70s whatever man just grind thru it

The ONLY bad part about this, was that I missed out on all the great moments my friends had in their 20's. While I was straightening my life out, they were getting their professions started and having fun. Which sucks-- ALOT.

At 35 it's hard to make new friends, and your friends will get married and already did all the shit you want to do now that you have money.

You're still a slave m8. The only way to not be is to be able to make money on your own.

fuck off retard

Bullshit.

That's like saying when you have an unrealized loss, you haven't lost anything until you sell! Um no fuckboy you lost that wealth, doesn't matter if you sold or not.

literally a better, cheaper education system would be the government paying people to read books.

Lmao nobody gives a fuck about education, it's just a meme pushed by the media to get people to take out 100k in loans that you will never be able to repay.

Sure you might get looked down on if you are a plumber over say a lawyer, but nobody is going to prefer to hang out with a communications professor over a dude who made millions in crypto.

Your a faggot OP, stop feeling sorry for yourself. I have a baby on the way, my girl is 3 months, a $21,000 Honda I crashed a month after financing, paying $3000 to fix, insurance going up my ass, bills still need to be paid, car payment and phone as well, And I JUST hit 21 in May. Now the flip side is that I've been doing A/C for about 4 years. 3years in construction and 1 on the controls side. It's a good paying job but I'm barely getting by. My grandpa let me borrow $600. PS I put 50 in eth when it was at $80 and bought 400k of moonC that I'm letting sit until the next shill, bought at 2sat's so fuck off. People have worse. That's just the beginning of my shit.
