So I see a lot of proud NEETS on here, seeing that many of you arouses my curiosity.
What you do guys do for money? Because no matter which fucked up part of the world you live in, you need money to survive.
I live in the US, so I know the welfare is shit here, I'm really confused as to how still live in comfort.
Enlighten me NEETS, I want to know

I'm a NEET living with my mom and using my savings from my wageslave days. I'm pretty sure most NEETs here just completely mooch off their parents or the government.
Alright well I live with my parents but I have three sources of income:
Stock market, which is where I put my birthday money, make like $400 a year
Poker, im very good, very, i make a few grand a year
And also flipping drugs from the darknet around my city, make like 3k a year because low profit margins

>>24783473
Absolutely wrong
Wagekeks dont make those memes
eBaying shit I get from online instant win contests is going great so far, same with free samples of shit
I work part-time at a thrift store so that's also good money
And also you can sell literally anything on Etsy because people will pay for anything with the word "upcycled" in the title so I've made about $50 selling fucking bird feathers I picked off my goddamn lawn
>not realizing all the NEET threads are done by Aussie shitposters
>>24783439
I lives with my mommy and she provides food for me and will often buy be clothes and other necessities. Other than that I have some trust fund money from grandparents which I use for things she can't or won't pay for, be it outside food/drinks/snacks, new headphones and chair, body lotion and essential oils, shoes and underwear I buy online, etc.
I work for the government.
>>24783480
Damn, doesn't sound like you get a lot for the risk you invest.
>>24783491
>>24783547
Yeah, fuck, I remember living in Australia. Fucking Centrelink just giving money to every fucking bogan that walked in. God I wish that whole country would just die for some reason. I'm Aussie btw
>>24783621
Yea but I only go to casinos a few times a year, and flipping acid is literally no risk because it is all to white people at libraries

The NEET is the apex of modern human evolution. It's no wonder they can survive and thrive where others fail so miserably. They are gifted with impeccable social skills, strong motivation, and a drive towards making the world a better place. When others see these qualities in the NEET, it is no wonder they want to help them in all their endeavors. The NEET lives by enriching the lives of others, gaining whatever material possessions along the way.
NEETS consist of philosophers, artists, and learned men.

you're right, failed normies that don't belong here are to blame

Social Security Disability, $2650 per month.
My Psychologist helped me get ruled as 100% disabled, due to my crippling depression, social anxiety and severe ADHD along with mild autism and a borderline personality disorder.
I am on food stamps (Snap), I have a housing voucher (I qualified for a two bedroom place(I rent out my other bedroom for $1500 a month), I also get a free TAP Pass (LA Metro Transit), I am on MediCal, my wireless and internet access are also paid for by the government, I also get Meals-on-Wheels three hot meals delivered to my apartment every day, I also qualified for a service that has someone come to clean my apartment and my clothes 3 times a week, I also rent out my parking spot (no car, I do have a scooter), to a family for $600 a month cash, I sell my plasma once a week at a blood center near where I live, I collect cans on my walks, and lastly I qualified for free medical marijuana I get 3 ounces a week I only use 1 so I sell their other 2 the guy I sell to gives me $250 an ounce.
So I am pretty much living hand to mouth, the major problems I have are the stigma associated with having mental health issues, and the lack of adequate support and social services coupled with disgustingly low payments from SSDI.
We as a society will be judged by how well we care for those who can not care for themselves, looking at my own case America is failing to help the most needy.
Our society disgusts me with how uncaring they are, the rich get richer and those of us on the bottom are living in abject poverty.
>>24783439
I collect autismbux from centrelink
And all I gotta do is go to this retard place once a week and they realize im still retarded.
>>24784674
lmao
"Come back in a week and we'll assess if you're any less autistic."
>>24784725
its pretty much that.
>>24784744
I'm currently on Centrelink myself, but as a student. Really struggling with my mental health to get through and pretty fucking worried, lmao. Figure in the worse case scenario, entirety of my household is on disability pension for either physical or mental anomalies. Glad I live in a country where I won't starve to death all because I'm an sperg. It's hell walking into those Centrelink buildings though, screaming dip-shit babies and single mothers who got pumped and dumped by entry-level labourers.
>>24784585
If you were trying to piss me off you succeeded.
>>24784585
If this isn't bait, I'll just go shoot myself right away. You get everything for free, even free fucking weed. I'm a student and survived on 4k the last 6 months, money I spent my summer vacation working for. What could you possibly need more money for when everything is handed to you? Ponies?
>>24784674
Anon, how do they evaluate that? And how much time does it take up?
how do you make a living if you don't have a job
>>24784916
Dollars or pounds? Just curious.
>>24784585
10/10 post m8
>>24784994
Dollars, man. Wouldn't recommend it, but it was fucking impossible to get a part time job.
>>24784958
an hour or two every week, it gets me out of the house.
Just basic shit like what have you been doing this week and other crap like that
>>24784585
Wow dude, those last two sentences

>>24785359
>still playing shitscape
my psychiatrist says I should go on disability and she would approve the paperwork
im thinking about staying in the psych ward another time just to help it go through faster
>>24785576
I remember being about 10 and thinking to myself, I should stop playing Runescape. I need to grow up.
I'm about a month away from 22 and have been reading online translations of bad light novels for the last 6 months.
I wish I'd stuck with my runescape character.
>>24784585
>Rent out a ROOM for 1500$ a month
>Rent out a parking spot for 600/month
>250$ a week from weed
>People paying for your food, housing, internet food, and laundry
If this is true I would say you certainly aren't living "hand to mouth" when you make more a month from disability combined with all of your expenses paid for.
>and the lack of adequate support and social services coupled with disgustingly low payments from SSDI
You get everything for you paid for and you complain that it's not enough?
> be me
>no dad
>mum lives in the looney bin
>tfw depression from specific form of crippling crippling narcolepsy/cataplexy
>for some reason, the one medication that fixes it is the one medication not available downunda
>receive disability pension from the government but they want me to work as well so they undercut my payments
>start selling the substitute medication they gave me for twice as much as I was getting from welfare
>>24783439
I live with my parents and they provide food, water, hygiene items, and utility/internet access.
I get a few hundred USD per year on average from other relatives (never asked for anything, they just send it out of pity I suppose) which I use to buy any non-essential items I might want.
It's not the most fulfilling life, but it's comfortable and easy.
>>24785671
I'm happy Jagex perm muted my maxed out main about ~3 years ago. It finally gave me a reason to quit.
I wasted probably like 6 hours/day every day in high school (All 4 years) and like 10-12 hours/day during breaks.
So much time wasted on a stupid game.
It is respectable though how it's somehow continued to survive all of this time. Every time I'm feeling nostalgic I read recent updates and realize it's still going to shit.
>>24785166
That sucks. If you're still around, do you mind listing what your main expenses were? I assume food and rent if you're living out.
Thinking about going back to Uni to do a masters myself, not sure if I can afford it. I might be able to cover tuition, but not certain at the moment.
>>24785790
What did you do, anon, to get banned?
>>24786000
I would say and do stupid shit on junk accounts to the point that Jagex IP muted every account I owned and would ever create.
It bothered me a lot after it happened years ago but realized it was the only true way to break my RS addiction.
If I stilled played I'd probably be one of those guys who was aiming for 200mil in every skill.
>tfw I work at a hotel
>front desk
>wagekek
>20
>play video games all day and lift at night
i wish I has rich parents
>>24784585
>robots think they're any better than welfare niggers
>>24786141
I want this to me my life.
I'd only spend money in vidya and food and weed.
I have no ambition and I want to die asap
