My online business has been making some pretty decent money since the start of 2016. Pic related. Making more than anyone I know personally.
I'm not happy at all. In fact life kinda fuckin' sucks now because I have to work 4-6hrs EVERY DAY (no days off) and deal with a lot of stupid, pissy customers.
I have thoughts of moving somewhere cheap -- maybe to Eastern Europe, or SE Asia -- and just plowing prostitutes til my dick turns green. This stops seemingly like such a good idea once I watch porn and cum though.
How do I use this money to make me happy? Or should I continue my miserable existence and just save it.
wealth is wasted on the dull.
Take a fucking vacation. There is a reason people do this. Stop working 7 days a week if that's what you meant by every day.
Hire a peon to do this mundane shit for you if you have so much money.
donate some money to me so i can buy ps3 games
>>28279460
Trust me, I've thought about hiring a VA or whatever. But at the end of the day I just don't trust anyone to run my business. I've done a lot of work in creating a service that's unique, but if anyone saw the back-end of it they could easily replicate it. Or they could sabotage and ruin my business with the click of a button. Too risky.
teach me how you do it senpai
>>28279415
If you can get a mutual fund up to a million dollars, you can effectively pay yourself a $70k salary for playing video games or travelling or counting grains of sand or shitposting or whatever you enjoy doing.
Anything you want to do, secure in the knowledge you will always have a very livable income.
Essentially retired, but still physically able to work if you find something rewarding or enjoyable, and if that work doesn't pay the bills, fuck it, $70k still.
>>28279507
I'm well fucking short of that. I just started earning this much like 4 months ago. Before that I was living hand-to-mouth. I admit it sounds awesome but it's not realistic.
>>28279415
It doesn't but it can show you how to get there.
I've never been more happy in my life than I am right now.
I have plenty money but once you realize time is everything and not money thats when you start living.
Yeah you can make money anon but remember you will NEVER see a uhaul follow a hearse. Use the money, enjoy life, give more, whats good having all that money when you can't share it?
I give so much back now because I can.
Shrooms. Do shrooms too. It'll change your perspective on something and open doors. Don't be stupid don't do it for the high do it for the experience. You'll thank me later.
>>28279561
Thanks for responding, but you've left out the key to your happiness. What did it for you?
I definitely agree -- money is just digits in a bank until it's used to enhance your life. I just live boring right now and can't think of anything to spend it on. I get no satisfaction out of nice jewelry, clothes, cars. I've got a nice laptop. Can't think of much else.
>>28279477
what is this, 2006?

Seems pretty fucking awesome to me dude.
>>28279608
I can't see it lasting a decade. It's a niche internet business. I just happen to be offering the best service at the moment, but there is competition and they are adapting. I'll be happy if it lasts 2 years at this pace.

>Money =/= Happiness
Fuck off. I can't afford a dentist, I work minimum wage job 10h/day and some faggot tells me I wouldn't be happier with more money that would allow me to actually quit doing what I hate without starving, money that would allow me to eat something I actually like, going to a fucking dentist instead of living in constant pain.
Pampered faggots who say money doesn't give happiness should kill themselves, life is so hard for you guys after all.
>>28279590
No one can tell you how to be happy anon. Thats the beauty of it and the reason why I didn't include it.
What makes me happy isn't gonna make you happy because we travel on differ roads. We both have different experiences in life that will lead us to our own happiness.
This is why I'm recommend shrooms. I read a while back about Steve Jobs and one of the best things in life that he is so glad that he did was LSD.
It makes you look at things differ. You don't fit the same mold as other bots but I'm assuming you are not a normie and this is why I say this. You never wanan do shrooms when you are in a bad spot.
I use it for when I want to get to the next level in life. Are you happy? Are you sad? Feel powerless? Strong as fuck? The shrooms will not lie to you and tell you what even you don't want to tell you.
You were meant to do more than just earn a piece of cotton in your hand to "buy shit you don't even want."
Experience life my friend for life is like Spiderman, we only get one.
>>28279634
The sort of thing that gets bought out by a big mob like Google or Facebook?
There'd have to be a way to make that enticing for them.
Instagram had 17 employees when Facebook bought it for a billion dollars or some such.
sell your business and do something less demanding, start spending the shekels on things you like
in short, reward yourself
>>28279656
This guy.
You assume we have not gone through that shit my man? Do you think you are talking to NEETs in here?
Everyone will always have a problem. That girl you think is beautiful with no flaws. She takes all that make up off at night to only see she has no eye brows with acne scars on her face.
Jonah Hill. Money. Still a bitch.
You. Have legs. Can walk. Some people can't.
Get the point?
Stop doing shit you hate, you can lose the same amount of money doing what you love.
You love DBZ? Make a blog. Flags? Fun with Flags my nigga.
My point is STOP. Stop doing shit you hate there is no reason for that.
I can make so much more money right now in my life but fuck that I want more time, I'd gladly work for more time than money.
>>28279674
Did you like, get an inheritance or settlement so now you're all happy and shit?
>>28279477
ps3 has no games. blox
>>28279753
Nope homeless for sever years with no job for five, no family, and broke as shit.
Crawled myself out from the gutter, into everything YOU would want. As for me? I want more. I don't settle anymore.
Peoples problem is you think you have time. You don't. Who ever said life is short is fuckin retarded, this bitch is long as fuck if you don't die tomorrow. But that's the beauty of it, you could die tomorrow, the sad part is, you didn't.
So instead take this time and do what you love anon, fuck everyone else. No one is suppose to understand your road, it's only meant for you.
Trust me, you can do it anon, you can.
OP is a fucking faggot. If I had so much money I'd be living in a fucking dream, away from my parents, having a nice car and finally able to get at least one of my oneitises.... SINCE I WONT BE LIVING WITH MY MOM YOU FUCKING FAGGOT OP
>>28279781
So what do you do for money?
>>28279415
I'm currently dating a wagecuck right now and all he does is complain about not having enough money to do what he loves, I feel so bad all the time because I have enough money to do all the things I want but I have such bad anxiety I can't leave my house. But that doesn't really matter, the point is money does help with happiness it just isn't the key thing to happiness. I buy shit I love and I'm at least satisfied for a day. I bought a cintiq recently and I can't be happier, it's been a month and I'm still drooling over it. Anon, maybe you should spend your money on adventure or a hobby, it'll help but it won't be the answer. Maybe even date some qt and take her to a cabin and fuck her brains out.
>>28279415
Maybe use the money to do something you're passionate about? Work somewhere where you can meet people and enjoy yourself.
>>28279415
>wahhhhhh I'm rich but still unhaaaaaaapy
fuck off faggot
What's your business OP?
>>28279793
This is why you won't get out of that rut. Stop blaming others for your unhappiness. You think having all those things is gonna make you happy?
Get that new car? Still can't talk to that girl. Got that house? No friends to invite over. Hella money? Who the fuck you gonna spend it on?
Don't be fuckin stupid like every fuckin kid. You don't want to live with your mom? Move the fuck out and live in the streets. You will be happy? Fuck no but at least YOU made a decision.
Whens the last time you ever even "jumped" do you even know what that means?
Fuck anon, theres a saying and its just for you.
If you ain't shit at 16, mother fucker you aint gonna be shit at 60.
If you're not happy being broke, bitch you are not gonna be happy with money.
>>28279415
Don't come near europe.
Move to a nice state in the us.
>>28279795
Flair Bartender. Didn't know I was good at it.
Now I make great money and fuckin tips. Could never go back to a non tipping job. I know it's not 4k a month but I have plenty of money now with almost no bills (everyhings paid off house, cars, etc.) and I do whatever the fuck I want now.
That may not be happiness to some of you, but you better be god damn right it'll gonna get me there :D
>>28279795
errr or did you mean while i was homeless? Did what any kid on the street would do. The things you are not proud of, but you have to survive.
>>28279858
Don't be fuckin stupid like every fuckin kid. You don't want to live with your mom? Move the fuck out and live in the streets. You will be happy? Fuck no but at least YOU made a decision.
I was going to put arguments and destroy every single dumb point you mentioned, until I read that.
You are a fucking retard.
>>28280012
Maybe. But here I sit, happy. And there you are. Not.
I made my decision years ago. Keep crying on /r9k/ or do something about it.
Excuse me while I sit comfy and drink my coco waiting for your response, I'm really curious to see how salty you're going to get.
>>28279415
>I have to work 4-6hrs EVERY DAY
wait what did yo mistype those numbers?
>>28280052
Stupidity is bliss
>>28279732
>My point is STOP. Stop doing shit you hate there is no reason for that.
Food. Literal survival and escaping starvation. I don't live in a country where you get free stuff for being NEET or being autistic. I quit job, I starve.
>>28280167
You act like you can't grow shit you lazy fuck. Sorry you can't make enough money to get you McDonalds every night but there is plenty of ways of surviving you just choose not to. You can make money doing what you love as well. Your problem is your scared.
>>28280154
This guy right here. See him? You will ALWAYS have these guys trying to tell you to follow the norm. Mother fucker shit is not a straight road, you will fuck up along the way, and you will fail horribly, but you better be damn sure that none of that will happen if you don't jump.
You will sit there. Stuck. Like this guy. Just complaining and making excuses as to why others who used to be just like you, and are now ok in life are "stupid", "retarded", I love it.
I used to be like you anon. I'm so happy I'm not.
>>28280154
So what? Who the fuck cares?
I'm wagekeking while in nursing school and working on a few side hustles. My plan is to get about 500k is mutual funds so I have an easy 20k passive income a year, of course I'd rather let it build its there if I need it. I'd like to build up my business to where it's just 3 or 4 hours a day of work and I can retire from my main job and just do that. Preferably something e-commerce related so I can do it while traveling. Early retirement is a big dream for me. I don't want to do anything in particular. I'm prone to be struck by a strange mood and hake on a project only to abandon then return months later. You can't do that in your job unless you are OK with starting entry level then changing fields and going entry level all over again. One thing that's been consistent is my love of alcohol. If distilling laws ever ease up I'd love to run a micro or nano distillery. Beer is always fun too. Wine has really stagnated, especially compared no beer, that's more legal than consumer fault though. I'm sure with creative wording I could do country wines and neat shit like dandelion or maybe mead and it's various permutations with fruit or herbs added.
It may be worth reading early retirement extreme or Mr money mustache. These are two men I look up to. They recognize the importance of money but they put they're hobbies and shit first. They got in, built the test egg, then retired in poverty to live like kings. I can do the homestead hippy bullshit, in fact I'd love it. 20k is plenty since I'll by minmaxing my garden and experimenting with aquaponics and especially automation. If I figure out even a basic thing I could sell kits to like minded people. I love my homestead communities but they don't even care of automation from practical standpoint. It tickles my autism like nothing else to see an efficient system. I think I like farming on paper more than I do irl, and I love my plants. Animals too I guess. You can min max on trout and rabbit.
>>28280296
>You can make money doing what you love as well. Your problem is your scared.
Yeah you fucking retard, I'm scared to earn more money, bravo.
Why the guys who actually get to earn money are this retarded as OP?
>just be yourself
>just make a blog or let's play on youtube and just fucking I don't know, just make more money
>do what you love be yourself
FUCK OFF
I'm living in a shit hole, I don't have money to move out, there is no other job here but for a minimum wage. You don't get to talk shit like "j-jus-st m-make more m-monety be yourself". You know what OP? You're right, in your case you're just fucking retarded, no amount of money will make you "happy" you will just go through your life consuming things you can afford but without noticing it, without noticing how much harder, how much pain you would have to experience if not for your money.
>>28280472
Did I say be yourself? No bitch I gave you examples. Just like OP I can't tell you what the fuck is gonna make you happy you dumb shit but what I do know is you fuckin hate your job right?
Scared of making money? No you dumb shit I'm telling you YOU ARE FUCKIN SCARED TO TAKE RISKS!
Quit your job and roll the dice, will you survive? Will you find that drive to find that next meal the next day? I ate from fuckin dumpsters behind food stores to stay alive so fuck you. I know how the fuck it feels.
Do you? Sleeping in a fuckin tent paranoid someone can just come and drop a rock on your fuckin head for no reason.
Fuck OP? FUCK YOU for not doing what your amazing hands have to ability to do and get you where the fuck you wanna be.
Live in a fuckin shit hole. Kid. I hope you make it, so when you finally do and look back on this you'll know what the fuck OP and I were talking about.
Only then I hope you come back to do what one /r9k/ bot did for me back then when they told me all this shit. You pass it on.
But of course you'll get fucks like this always trying to run it into the ground.
>tfw never can come close to a decent business idea
>>28280626
>YOU ARE FUCKIN SCARED TO TAKE RISKS!
What risks you fucking retard?! Stop spewing buzzwords and meme advises, life isn't like that.
>>28280715
Exactly. You don't even see em. Open your fuckin eyes anon, stop talking to me like I'm one of these neets that hasnt been where you are.
You want advice? Work your shitty job for 2 months. Save everything and don't buy nothing. You want food? Grow it, eat it out of a trash can, buy a 100 pack of ramen for 20 bucks. Whatever the fuck you need to do.
Don't buy shit and leave. You don't know where it's gonna take you but I do know whats gonna happen if you stay.
You gotta fuckin jump anon, please.
You will never get out of that rut with that mindset. You gotta understand you can't control everything but you can control the left or right life decision you'll make.
Risk it anon. Fuckin risk it. And if you die then I'll be like my bad when I meet you up there yo.
>>28280802
>Work your shitty job for 2 months. Save everything and don't buy nothing.
>You want food? Grow it
>You want food? Grow it, eat it out of a trash can
just leave this board already, go give meme advice on /adv/
>>28280913
Ha. Ok. Guess you're not the one I'm looking for. I'm sorry anon. You're right. Have a great day.
>>28279677

>>28280673
>tfw dozens of ideas but too lazy to build anything
>>28279507
>7% annual real return that's safe and sustainable
That doesn't happen.
>>28280961
Looking through replies I can see it's you against the world.
In such cases, I always bet on the world.
>>28279415
You complain with a belly full of mead.
>>28281091
Very true. But you better believe I'm giving the world a run for its money 8-)
It knows damn well I didn't make it easy for em :D
This is one of those rare cases though, you would of lost a lot of money :)
You can't help people who don't want to be helped.
>>28281139
>You can't help people who don't want to be helped.
You're still here? Fuck off richfag. Your meme advice won't help anybody.
Just look, only I'm replying, other anons who are either dirty poor or wagekeks working for minimum wage don't even bother to talk with you. Good for you that you had some luck and put some work into it. But it won't work for everybody, and you and OP trying to convince people how hard it is to actually have money is just irritating and shows how retarded you are. Just fuck off, money can pay a lot of things, happiness included.
>>28281250
Ha. Rich. Sure why not. I can say that now.
"How do I use this money to make me happy?" This is what this thread was about you dirt poor fuck head.
This thread wasn't for you, you are not at this stage yet and your telling me to stfu? Ha.
I really did want to help you, but believe me I LOVE watching fucks like you suffer too.
Do nothing. Are nothing.
Please. Keep replying :) I got like ten more mins before I go to bed with a nice full stomach to my beautiful wife in my nice comfy onesie :)
>>28281139
You got me curious, what are you doing for living?
>>28281330
>"How do I use this money to make me happy?" This is what this thread was about you dirt poor fuck head.
With every reply you show how big of a retard you are. It's confusing how someone so stupid can actually gain wealth. Oh well I guess that's what I get for being born in a 3rd world country. Anyway "Money =/= Happiness" That's what the thread was about. About retarded claim from a pampered richfag who doesn't know the weight of his own money. No one fucking cares about how you can now be happy or how do you use this money, they are either irritated by your ridiculous faggot claim or they are curious how a someone with gay views like you can into money.
>>28281330
Normie get out
GET OUT
reeeeEEEEEEEE
Die normie scum!
>>28281340
He almost definitely got an inheritance or disability backpay or something. He does this is every thread but never answers that simple question.
>>28282124
He already answered it stupid. Jesus read the thread guys.
>Some guy tries to help bots
>Bots tell em to fuck off
This is why we can't have nice things. This thread made me sad.
