protect your credit rating - you'll suffer in your upper 30's and 40's for stupid shit you did in your 20's. Pay the minimum even if you are getting fucked on interest - just don't forget to pay.

network well in your first jobs and you'll never have to search for a job again as co workers will move on and recommend you to come with

have fun in your twenties but moderate. no, you can't party all the god damn time. you'll end up a broke, drunk piece of shit in your 30's and pathetic in your 40's - if not dead

don't get married until you are at LEAST in your late 20's

have moderately stable finances and be married at least 2 years before thinking about kids

realize that some of your "best" friends are losers and dump them or they will drag you down with them

Honestly, have sex every chance you can.

Could have banged multiple girls I dated but I'll be honest I was a pussy. It's really no big deal once you do it so just get it over with and have fun. Also, STDs are a myth designed to scare black ppl into not having unprocted sex.

Don't get married. If you have to then live with them for at least 2 years.

Don't move in with ur gf unless you always have an exit plan and money saved up.

Be overly friendly to everyone. Even if you suck at whatever you're doing noone will care if they like you, and getting promoted is 10x easier.

If you cum too fast just keep fucking, you'll get it back up in a couple mins and instead of a chump you can easily last as long as you need to.

Go to college full time 1 semester a year and take one or two classes the second semester, you qualify as a full time student on your taxes and if you have loans they won't be due until you stop taking classes.

Never get a liberal arts degree or business management degree, and don't get a degree that you'll have to go 4+ hours away from to find a job for starting out.

Both are okay to try. I've tried both and didn't like them, too intense for me.

Also, if you're ever convicted of something, even minor, get a lawyer. Even then, follow up on everything. Just because the court orders something doesn't mean a clerk never makes mistakes. If I ever need to get security clearance or join the military I have to reopen a case from 6+ years ago BC of a clerk error.

Get an internship in your field before graduating from college.

Also, get a useful degree in a field that pays.

Learn from my mistakes, anons...

I had a useless internship as an undergrad and graduated with a useless degree, then surprisingly couldn't find a job. Being unemployed sucks. Went back to school for a technical degree, got a good paying internship, was hired on full-time. Now I just have to deal with 8 years worth of higher ed debt, but that's a lot easier now that I'm raking in big money.

you don't have to share the stories right now. the most horrible experiences are the best stories afterwards. Except real horrible shit like losing friends in accidents or such stuff. You get my point. Life is about having as many interesting stories to tell as possible. As long as you don't die you'll be fine.

Kind of a follow up but a few things I've learned is that no one has all the answers, you have to find them out as you go along. It's not like school where the teachers always right, no one is 100% right in life and you have to use your experience and judgement and trust yourself. If you make mistakes, learn from them. If you make good decisions, learn from them. You'd be surprised at the shit you can do

You will be MUCH happier living in a city you enjoy. You'll be amazed at all the things you missed out on.
If you're conservative, live and work in a conservative area. If you're liberal, wise up or kys.

P.S. generally speaking, I wish I'd spent far less time and money on drugs and booze. I wish I would have bought a decent bike and gotten into riding and working out a lot earlier in life.

If you hate college, don't slog through it. If you actually enjoy your field of study then yeah, keep going, but if you're doing it just for money/parental approval/don't know what you want to do, then don't waste your money. You're probably going to drop out after bombing a semester, enter a deep depression and become a robot.

Get a job and work while figuring out what you want to do with your life, join the military (four years of service isn't that bad with all the benefits you get once you're out), or take up a trade.

Shitting on trades is the dumbest shit high school teachers and administrators do. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being an electrician, carpenter, working in HVAC, plumbing etc etc... They like to equate it to working an entry level construction job, like something only fuck ups and mexicans do, but a real trade is pretty far removed for entry level construction work. You aren't breaking your back for 10 bucks an hour, you can make fucking bank as an electrician doing home inspections or making an after hours emergency call to someones house and charging them like 10x the normal rate to move a few wires around. My previous landlord got charged like $800 to send a plumber to my house when the pipes burst on a weekend. The dude worked for like 40 minutes and made $800 bucks. Go find me another job that has that ridiculously big of a work to money ratio.

If I wasn't a fuck up, I would have joined the military earlier than I did, or started a trade school when I dropped out of high school instead of wasting money trying to go to community colleges I didn't really want to go to. I hit rock bottom and joined the Navy when I was 24, now I am out, getting paid to go to school for a degree I actually really enjoy. I do carpentry on the side and I love it, its rewarding building things with your hand and working a job with some labor involved instead of sitting behind a computer all day getting bitched at by pajeets and fat women.

Don't fall for the credit trap - if you don't have cash you can't afford it. Save and invest your money. Don't bother going to school for 20 years - just get a trade or skill and maybe an associates or a bachelors and you are good to go.

If you're getting buried in debt doing it, get out while you still can. You can always go back when you're in a better situation to pay for it if you can find something decent in the mean time.

If you're not getting buried in debt, might as well finish it. You don't HAVE to love your job, that's pretty unrealistic for the majority of the population. I want to be a musician and a writer, except I know I am not amazing at either and couldn't make a living off of them. It would be awesome to hang out, jerk off on /b/, play video games and get paid for it, that would be a fucking amazing career, but I will never get paid to do that either.

You should tolerate your job and not absolutely dread every single second you're at work, but you're probably not going to LOVE it. If you can tolerate the line of work you're going into and can fill your life with things you want to do outside of it, then you'll live a happy life. If you're working 60 hours a week and your life is nothing but your job and it isn't something you absolutely love, then you're living a pretty shitty life, even if you're bringing in $500,000 a year.

"Money ain't everything but not having it is" - Kanye West. This is true, but when your entire life revolves around work and making more money, you're living a pretty empty life. Whats the point of just making more and more money when you have no time to do anything you actually enjoy, don't spend any time with your family, never go on vacations etc etc...?

Get into Christianity and make getting into heaven the top of your life goals. My life changed when I decided to put the spotlight on the issue of if I was going to get into heaven if I died. It is a very transforming experience because once you begin to prioritize and focus on this issue it haunts you every single day. You always feel like you're going to be thrown into a burning fire for eternity every single day you don't follow these rules and choose to make heaven a priority. The only thing that begins to calm you down is to actually convert to Christianity and study getting into heaven harder than you ever have for any college major or anything in your life. Because your afterlife is on the line.

It makes more sense to prioritize this than to take a chance and assume there isn't a heaven or hell. And to be honest my life has gotten a lot better after I started taking even a few pages of wisdom of the bible in my life.

I end this by saying I am extremely convinced of this religion because I experienced extremely convincing super natural events in my life. I have seen actual detailed spirits with super natural lighting emitting from them a few feet from my face. Not balls of light or anything . The real deal. Fully detailed unmistakable ghosts. This was in the middle of the day so no sleep paralysis. Nothing explains them.

I think this website is extremely dangerous for your spiritual health. It promotes lust. It promotes people to fight each other in posts instead of loving each other. Violence is promoted here in gore threads and shock images. Etc. Anybody that really cares about getting into the kingdom of heaven would be wise to stay far away from all this stuff and leave this site for good.

I'm in a really special situation, to actually try I'll need to take extensive classes of chemistry, biology, and physics which i didn't study at all , this would take around 3 years, later I'd have to study for another 8~ 12 years.

Backup plan is something to do with languages, already fluent in Russian , Hebrew , and French, might take Chinese lessons later , not 100% sure.

This. Young millennial faggots are utterly lost without their magic conveniences. Can't use tools, repair machines, troubleshoot their own devices, cook, slaughter an animal, build a shed, lay pipe, roof a house, till a field, or a thousand other things that were common knowledge and useful chores to generations before them.

But because they're handed high grades and know how to manipulate touch based user interfaces (invented by people much older than them), they think they're brilliant.

God psot.

But don't worry about being "happy." That leads to being soft.
Get out there and DO something. Live life.

Learn a new skill, find a sport you like and be competitive, conquer obstacles.

Life isn't about being "happy" and having a lot of distractions.
Develop an iron will ( there's a free book by that title), accomplish your tasks in life and contribute something to humanity.

Alot of those 20 year olds aren't exactly living the life, with tons of money to burn and just going around and having fun. Most of them don't really have that much money, but just live way below their means so they can go out and travel and have fun. They don't have expensive cars, cable subscriptions, a ton of nice clothes and shit like that.

And you know what? That's perfectly fine. You don't need tons of money to go have fun and do the things you want to do. If you are OK living on cheap, nutritious food, camping out, not having a billion electronic devices and shit like that, you can go travel the country, attend music festivals and have a fucking blast without being held down by a 40 hour a week job year round.

Go have fun when you're young. Work hard for a few months, build up a little nest egg then go and have a blast with some friends. Find a girl you love, settle down, start a family, get into a career you can tolerate and go from there.

The miserable people went to college, go out, started working and building up their career, go on some casual dates until they find a girl in a similar situtation, settle for each other, have kids because it's what people are supposed to do, be miserable, get a divorce, then the guy has a mid life crisis because he never did shit with his life, starts going to the gym all the time and bragging about banging 22 year olds to try and compensate for lost time. Then they're 45, living alone in an apartment, having the kids stay over every other weekend while painfully hiding their crippling booze addiction they picked up to hide how awful their life has become.

But still, they're fucking pulling in 22 year old tang bros.

Stop putting the pussy on a pedestal. If your biggest problem in life is not getting laid, then you have much bigger problems you need to address. The guy who has his shit together and enjoys his life isn't trying to overcompensate with an amazing body, or looking up dating advice all the time, constantly browsing dating sites etc etc... They are just living their life and women come around naturally without them focusing their entire life on the pursuit of pussy.

Yeah, you can get laid by hot chicks being a try hard gym rat that sends a message to every single girl on tinder and OKcupid and having a few catch. Congrats, you got laid. Now what? Hows the rest of your life?

I dunno, the older I get the less that shit matters. From 16-28 yeah, pussy was on my mind and it was all about talking to chicks, getting laid, "that girls so hot dude", "how do I get laid more?", but it eventually lost it's appeal. Yeah, I got laid, it was great, but I needed more, like a relationship and to do the things I wanted to do in life. I think it would be a lonely and empty life to be the single 40 year old guy chasing 21 year old chicks, getting a fake tan and constantly working out, being so concerned over my self-image. A family is a very rewarding thing.

I gotta counter this one. You said credit moves the fucking world. Which means you need a credit score and decent one in order to get anywhere in life. So do get a credit card, but pay the fucker off, don't think of the credit as a loan. Everything you put on credit needs to be backed up with actual cash in your hand.

Had such a hard time getting a car loan when I was 24 with zero credit.

Here. If anybody is convinced and would like to try Christianity I thought I should say something else here. Start with Matthew/Mark/Luke/John in the bible because it goes over the teachings of jesus. This covers alot of what to do to get into heaven

If you read 10 pages a day you can get through matthew/mark/luke/john in a week. That is a little more than 3 pages an hour. You do have to learn what these pages say though and prepare to do them in your life so its not as easy as reading over them casually.

Great study tools for the bible

As far as getting motivated is concerned, just youtube some videos on ppls experiences who said they went to hell and meditate on how scary it will be if you die before qualifying to get into heaven. Finding positive improvement in your life from following the wisdom in the bible also really helps get your motivation going.

You don't even need to be in great shape. I know tons of guys with average bodies, hell even fat guys, that get laid plenty. I don't know where the obsession with working out and having a perfect body just to get laid came from. If you have nothing else going for you but your body then yeah, you should probably work out a lot. If you have any semblance of a personality and you aren't a beta pussy, you can have sex with good looking women without six pack abs or the ability to bench 315lbs.

Pro tip:
financing a car is for suckers!
You're spending outrageous amounts of money on a depreciating asset. ( that means it looses valve extremely quickly).
Buy a cheaper car and pay cash or put down a large down payment and finance as little as possible.
Adults should NEVER finance a car. Pay cash. Buy what you can afford- not what you "want".

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man,
You win some, lose some, all the same to me,
The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say,
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
The Ace Of Spades

Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil,
Going with the flow, it's all the game to me,
Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you,
Double up or quit, double stake or split,
The Ace Of Spades

You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby,
I don't wanna live for ever,
And don't forget the joker!

Pushing up the ante, I know you wanna see me,
Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again,
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die,
The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be,
The Ace Of Spades

Yes but you'll be renting throught the land buying and home building process.

Yes I agree you will save some in the long run, but the headache is not worth it.

As I have gotten older I have discovered that sometimes it's better to just fork out the extra money than deal with the headaches of going the "cheap route".

I'm paying some guy $50 this week to change my engine coolant. Could I change it myself? Sure. But I don't want to and it's not worth my time, when you consider what I make.

Nah, issue was I could afford the car with my salary. Just I didn't have the actual cash on hand to back it up. I paid off a $20k loan in a year, so financing a vehicle really only meant I paid an extra $250 ontop of the car's value.

Though your method has meaning, I just really needed a car that could survive a long commute and harsh weather conditions. I watched my father buy three junkers in the manner you suggested and they all fell apart in 8-14 months. I've had my car for 5 years now and have only had to replace the alternator and starter.

Which brings in another thought process, learn to fix your vehicles. If you can pull it out of the car with a wrench you should be able to replace it for a fraction of taking it to the shop. I've saved so much money working on my own car.
