How many of you guys have gotten out of a NEET situation? I'm 26 with no degree and no serious work experience, and the need to get my shit together hit me pretty hard recently.

>been getting up at 6 a.m. every day.
>working out at least 2x a week consistently, lifting and some mild cardio
>got some shitty part time Internet job that pays Indian-tier wages but at least it's something to pay the cell phone bill
>improving relationship with gf
>learning to code in the evenings in an effort to eventually get a job in the field

Have any of you guys made it? Am I gonna make it?

there is no making it. I'm 30 and I tried to get back into society but it was too late. no education plus no work experience means no chance; I get like 700 in neetbux from faking autism and that took me 2 years and a lot of fighting to get. sometimes I'd rather just be dead

I'd tell you but I'll be reee'd out my own thread

I have never gotten a job in my life, but i couldn't be a neet in this world, so i taught myself skills and made my own job.

>realized if i did get a job it'd be low tier
>be in same position for years
>low pay for years
>just for the chance to maybe get a small promotion
>most available jobs don't teach worthwhile skills
>most people my age work in call centres

People are conditioned into thinking their time isnt valuable but somehow working for a pittance is?

If you are lifting ditch the cardio, ditch the gf too if you are really serious about learning skills. Girls are great but they consume time and money like nothing else. Ditch the job too if you are good enough to go it alone.

That always pissed me off. People will shit on someone for working a cash register at some burger place but the higher up managers/franchiseowner/corporate people deserve way more for working there and register chump should be working for slave labor. People will flat out tell you they don't deserve to make enough to live off of on a job that sends money up the chain. It's a scam and people that don't get payed for it buy into it still even though it means less money going around in the economy but fuck you because I can afford it and you should just go die.

I been working my way out of being a neet and it has been years and I'm still not totally there yet. If I knew when I started it'd of been that way I probably would of killed myself.
>>
I'm 28 years old, going on 29, NEET for ~3 years.

I got engaged, moved in with my fiance, and now I'm living as a homemaker. Its still kind of NEET but its a more respectable form of NEET. I'm in a happy place I guess.

why? if you are lifting

>gf
time and money sink a neet having a gf isnt a good thing

How is "it's better to control your own wages and workload" the same as "ditching everything"

Do you have any tips on this? What do you do and how much do you earn? Is it possible to earn more than a few bucks an hour just starting out?

Why would you want to be in that position even if you are a NEET, she can totally just call all the shots.

i'm 26. i have a degree and i've had two proper jobs. i worked one from 2012-2014, then one from 2014-2016, but i got laid off.

You can still have a male-female dynamic even if you're the stay-at-home. Yeah, it's not as easy, but don't think that all of these traits are so interlinked that you can't be a NEET and an alpha at the same time.

Um I am not a guy, my fiance is a straight male and he works with all men (computer science). He's loyal and loving and I couldn't be happier.

Living off your aging parents doesn't' feel good regardless if you are male or female. And finding a good, stable, decent-looks-and-personality man who is willing to marry a NEET girl isn't exactly super easy. My newfound role as homemaker is hard-won.

Yeah I know men are like 50/50 wanting gfs to get a job or just not caring.

Thankfully, my fiance doesn't care and I don't mind a power unbalance. I trust and love him completely. I do think it might be nice to get a job sometimes if only for the bonus income but I have bad anxiety.

You don't seem to understand. There is no such thing as a NEET girl. It is socially acceptable for females to live at home and do nothing until marriage, just as it is socially acceptable for them to live at home and do nothing within a marriage.

You seem to be misguided on this.

Tell that to my parents who asked if I was looking for jobs etc. Or all the people making small talk asking "what do you do?" etc. NEET girls get plenty of shame. Maybe not as much, but definitely enough to feel it. Even homemakers get criticized in some circles.
>>

> Even homemakers get criticized in some circles
Everyone is criticized in 'some circles'--that's a cop out. The reality is that there is a large gulf between women and men with regard to the shame you receive for being what is called a 'NEET' for men and basically a housewife for women.

okay

at the supermarket there were three of those machines (plastic bottles, glass bottles, and cans) where you put in your bottles and get a nickel per bottle. it prints out a receipt and then you give it to a cashier and they give you cash. but the machine doesn't accept certain brands (this is important later)

so anyway, i was working nights (only shifts available) and after i swept out the back rooms i had to unload the recycling machines and place the bags out for when the garbage men collect.

i hadn't been in the recycling room all day, and no one told me, but some guy had brought literally 300+ beer bottles to recycle, but the machine didn't accept them. so he just went home and left all of them sitting in the four shopping carts he brought with him.
>>
>>28659136
>it doesn't apply to robots. Trust me, I've tried whatever you're thinking
Whatever you say, you self-hating douche
>>
>>28659158
i finished up my regular duties and then decided what to do with the bottles. there were so many of them. here's where my fetish comes in i guess.

for some reason, breaking glass turns me on a lot. so i took the bottles into the parking lot and started smashing them. some of them i stomped on, some i just threw at the wall.
>>
>>28659236
What about this turns you on? Do you collect glass bottles just to break now?

>>
>>28659236
anyway long story short, i didn't leave until like 3AM because i was too busy sweeping up all of this glass. i took a bunch of it with me too. i went home and edged for hours. no one ever said anything so i thought i got away with it.

a couple days later, there's a hit and run in the parking lot. big long dent on the fender. it's the manager's car that got dinged, so they actually take it seriously. he doesn't know when it happened, so they start going through security tapes.

my supervisor calls me in and shows me the footage of me smashing all of these bottles. i was there for several hours. him and the manager start interrogating me about why i did it.

i couldn't say it was my fetish so i just kind of laughed it off and said i was just messing around. they said it wasn't funny and that someone could get hurt and they'd have to worry about lawsuits.

so they made me finish out the rest of the week. i wasn't even allowed near the recycling, i was just rearranging produce for two days.

that's how i lost that job

Funny enough I am doing literally all of this shit. Every single thing you posted is on my to-do list and I've knocked a few off already.

Can you recommend anything specifically--especially wrt virtual assistance? That's probably the only item in your list I haven't touched on just on my own.

Waking up early is a god damn blessing -- and maintaining it too! You get to witness early morning walks, if you're into that kind of thing, and are active when every working man and woman are active.

Life just gets too depressing when you stay up all night and sleep in the morning. It's very exhausting and can be a downer.

>>28659904
There's too many people out around midnight for night walks. I prefer walking around 4:00 AM, where you can see a little bit of light peaking over the horizon, then when you're finished wandering, the sun will be rising and you'll turn in. Nobody is out at this time and there are few vehicles driving around (at least in my small town).

Also, I don't share that feeling about waking up early and wanting to die. Sorry friend.

I went from omega to semi-chad status in a few years, mostly due to the circumstances of my living situation.

I'm in university now, have slept with a dozen girls (none of them ugly) and am by /r9k/ definiton a normie now, but I'm not far off from slipping back into NEETdom due to my general pessimism and frustration.

You're on the right track, OP.

Get your ass into a local community college. If you're as broke of a NEET as you are, go to FAFSA and fill out the form there.

Take general ed classes, maybe just one at a time, to get your feet wet. Then eventually you will find out what degree you want.

Motivation. Hustle. Never forget it.

Had a normie childhood, parents moved to shithole for middle/highschool where I was bullied or ignored by the local kids and spent everyday hiding behind my computer.

After I graduated high school I moved back to home country and started to do university.

At my lowest point I was omega, now I am a normie if not a Chad. On what part do you want me to elaborate?
>>
>>28660547
So moving back was the catalyst?

>>28660500
Thanks.
>>
>>28660592

Not really, was a pretty awkward kid/teenager. Had acne, greasy hair, didn't care about how I dressed for most of high school. I did have friends here and there though, so over the years I slowly cleaned myself up and became more social.

I did lift for 2 years after near the end of high school, but that didn't really increase my confidence that much, it helped, but was not a catalyst.

When I moved nobody knew about my past and I just presented myself well while slowly working on my social skills. With practice I got better at doing normie shit like getting girls, dancing, talking to strangers, etc.

Now I'm sorta an average joe, but am not bad looking and am getting in shape again, and as I my social skills and looks improve I can fit in with normies better and pick up qts.

I found it just comes with experience and practice, just watch normies do and slowly go with after some time, alcohol and/or other drugs help too.

As you get more used to it you'll get more comfortable with it and can pick up more complex moves, key is to have fun with as well.

Dating a Latin girl now and we sometimes go to Latin parties and dance bachata and some reggaeton and everybody has a good time. Most people aren't even minding you, and if they see you're having fun and doing what you want to they'll approve or even go along, plus it's a great way to pick up girls.

The key is being active. This is the necessary first step into getting out of your laziness and lack of motivation. Do a lot of shit with your free time, different shit that makes you move around a bit, to see some different scenery than your 4 walls.

The important thing is to NEVER be fooled by the NEET free time meme, that by remaining NEET, you forever have the liberty to use your own time to your own will, but this is partly a lie. If you don't have ton of shit to fill that free time, then it quickly becomes redundant as fuck. We all know what the origin of the NEET life is: little to no social interaction, lack of social and life experience which leads to very limited interests. So, congrats with your 24 full hours of absolute freedom, what do you do with these? You sleep them away, mostly, which destabilizes your system and makes you feel like shit which influences your mood which is negative most of the time and, eventually, the loneliness and frustration becomes so unbearable that you isolate yourself completely and try to escape your shitty circumstances by watching fiction where, sometimes, you imagine yourself living their lives and it makes you even more frustrated of living in reality, you masturbate a lot, consuming false images of how women act in real life and you become delusioned by the notion of dating a girl, but you want it a lot, so you try to tune off by playing grindy games that you can just sink 50 000 hours into, but all of that becomes really old really fucking fast.

Of course a lot of people are superfluous. You're supposed, with time, to acknowledge that life is impartial to our suffering and that there is no true justice to protect us. Unjust shit happens to innocent people and the people who are to blame often get away entirely despite everyone knowing what they do. Yes, man, life is a fucking bitch for real and she's trying to fuck you out of everything that belongs to you. Life is exactly like a woman. So yes, it is ungodly frustrating, but, for some fucking reason, you still enjoy it enough to not have perma-fucked off yet. So the way I see it is use that fucking free time you brag about all the fucking time and actually DO shit with it.

And I'm not talking about the stupid status quo TV definition of doing shit like le HURR WORKOUT meme or "b urself". I'm talking about doing some useful shit during that time. Useful shit to you. Like learning new things or practicing something. Any goal is a fucking goal, man.
