I live with my parents and I don't recieve NEETbucks.

A usual day I wake up around 10 to 11 am, eat some food, go on the computer to post on r9k, read tech news, do some programming, watch anime, play video games, then finally cook dinner. Repeat above until I go to sleep.

Yes but at least you can afford to live on your own and have a place where you can do whatever it is that you want

At least you have a little financial security and freedom to buy things you want and engage in your hobbies

At least you're respected by your family and made them proud by nothing being a NEET

2 things. Day job at a huge chemical company. Bunches of paper work. As a kind of hobby that I get paid very little for I write hockey articles (also still play hockey after like 18 years). Not dead inside because I hate life, dead inside that I'm fucking 24 already and time is going by quickly.

>>25514438

I work a crappy retail job and my co-workers are a bunch of retards, so that sucks.

...But I don't live with my parents, I'm somewhat fit, and I have 4 grand in savings, so it's not all bad I guess.

I just have to work on fixing my shitty personality so that maybe I can get a girlfriend before I'm 30. My hopes aren't too high for that, though.

>>25515044
The perception of time passing will only accelerate. Soon waiting months or years for things doesn't seem that long. You only hope that you're not dead before then.

It's possible to be technically proficient or at least hard working while being completely socially incompetent. You have to find the right work environment though. Probably not some hipster place, somewhere boring that cares only about profit.

I'm in yurop but for us it's pretty much like this

>below average salary
less than 1200$/mo
>average salary
1600$/mo
>decent salary
2400$/mo
>very good salary
3k+$/mo

That's living alone with about 800$/mo in housing/food and no debt

i've struggle for years with temp jobs at min wage and having barely 200$ in savings at the end of the month were dreadful
>>
>>25515567
so are they paying you the equivalent of 1050usd?

You can live on that on many countries I guesss.
>>
>>25515643
>decent salary

Not even enough to get a mortgage, car, and support a family.

In dollors it's like 1500 I guess

But after rent 700 a month
Bills ele/gas/net/cell/food and traveling expenses I have around 20-30 a week to myself usually though I spend that on boose and Valium to numb my boring life I want to go back to collage at some point

It's alright, got back in to skateboarding again and have a small group of friends. Got a new car too. No bf (no homo) but whatever. Overall not too bad, shitty job but I enjoy what I do and the people I work with are pretty cool. Going back to school in the spring too. Life is alright for once.
>>
>>25515580
that wasn't the point though. since majors are easy and general classes are generally easy as long as you don't get some bitch with tenure

we live in different countries and cultures m8
and i'm not even talking about east euro countries
i'm talking about France/Germany/Spain/Belgium
the reality in my country is most position requiring a "license" ( +2 years of studying after highschool ) pay from 1200 to 2400 and you're socially capped in salary by your level of education
my mother who worked in the same company for 25 years was capped at 2500 being an accountant
my dad in the same company jumped from a tech to an engineer about 15 years ago and gradually improved his salary from 2400 to now capped at 5000
and he's the project manager and definitely so he's one of those key person and absolutely vital to their branch

i'm always in awe when I read stories about people in the US making absurd amount of money with few years of experiences and just an engineer's degree
only you could make it here is doing your own start up and if you're sucessful you can pay yourself 10k/mo
hell, our local pizzaiolo is making more than my dad...
