Ian Peterson
Quit being a faggot OP
Hunter Rivera
yes now kill yourself so you become the COMPLETE UTTER FAILURE everyone will remember you as that shitty entitled cunt that thought he could make it with fucking music lmao enjoy people shitting on your grave but chances are they go and dig you somewhere in the forest
Jason Morales
>>realize this goes against the entire vision i had of my adulthood while growing up
This just means your a man now. This is what life is. Any way to escape it is making big money. Goos luck.
Daniel Gutierrez
kill yourself, usa already has too many useless shitskins like you destroying the welfare state
Hudson Phillips
>realize i can't even cash out how can you not
Camden Moore
You cant cashout , send me your gainz OP
Jaxson Cox
>>can't create because i'm poor and the household is always chaotic
You lost me
Leo Ward
just might have to suck it up and wagecuck. if i cash out, i'd legit be not making money. if i don't cash out, i make money, but i can't touch it. yea i'm being a bitch you're right, thanks for this.
Hunter Sullivan
I understand your frustrations OP. Sounds like a challenge indeed - still you have come this far. 7k is a lot to many people, and you've grown to realise what matters most for you; family. Go «wagecuck» or whatever autists on a japanese image board calls it, you'd be lucky to be able to work at all. And its meaningful to support the ones you love. Youre young, and if you are a resource to your job youll advance in some years and make more. Keep investing and your goals long term.
Connor Gomez
and remember to firmly shake your bosses hand and look him straight in the eye
Jordan Watson
are you one of those people who think you can get fuck you money through work? this is not how this world works to get rich you just need to find a way to persuade a lot of people to give you a little money each crypto is your chance to make it in life earn some money here and later you secure your funds in more stable investments and you could even start your own business without the need of a credit
Luis Rodriguez
>>can't leave because father is an addict; i'd be abandoning my little sister and mother
Right.. so don't off yourself. That's what you'd be doing. Abandoning and hurting them.
Just don't fucking give up. And don't put all your eggs in 1 basket. Wagecuck and trade crypto on the side. Pick ones that you don't have to watch 24/7 and relax.
Jaxon Martin
OP is basically me except my parents are normal. Also only have 1000 euros, started at 500, we're all gonna make it bro
Blake Johnson
just get a job... lmao
Christopher Parker
>>can't leave because father is an addict; i'd be abandoning my little sister and mother >but can leave via suicide Solid plan bro, do something messy. I’m sure that will do wonders for your mom and sis.
Brody Gonzalez
If you spent half the time working as you do feeling for yourself you'd be somewhere.
Work 8-10 hours a day, devote 2 hours a day to your own personal projects, a year from now you'll be doing well. And yes you can do all that while taking care of your family.
It will be hard, but it's possible.
Jonathan Hill
>REMOVE YOURSELF FROM ALL FAMILY ESPECIALLY YOUR MOTHER WHO LET ALL THIS GO ON, FIND DISCIPLINE IN A FARM JOB OR SOMETHING ROUTINE WITHOUT VIOLENCE AND CRIME
KEEP YOUR 5K IN CRYPTO AND KEEP BOUNCING IT INTO PROJECTS THAT WILL MOON, AS WELL AS YOUR GAINS.
THEN AT SOME POINT IN YOUR MISERABLE LIFE YOU MAY DESERVE THE CASH OUT

>be me >be 24 years old >web developer/graphic designer with no portfolio to show for it >college drop out >unemployed >still live with parents
This is exactly me, except I just turned 25.
I also do web development but I don't have a portfolio since all I have is unfinished personal projects.
WHAT DO WE DO??!?!
Jace Sanders
>implying suicide will fix your problems
Just sell everything you have and become a thai monk or something for a while and be thankful for what you have.
Faggot.
Jackson Bennett
appreciate the kind words Veeky Forumsbros. i hope we can all make it. i just applied for the Udacity course that Google is funding, waiting for a response...it's like a three month bootcamp. Hoping to use that for some direction, but I've also just been gunning through material myself. There's this rad GitHub repo where some dude pieced together a self-study course for becoming "job ready": github.com/P1xt/p1xt-guides
Easton Perry
You aren’t a designer if you have no portfolio to show.
You are just a deadbeat.
William Campbell
We all fuck things up
Get up and challenge yourself again
Losing is perfect as long as you keep fighting
Mason Johnson
Also, you are a delusional fool. The west coat is too fucking expensive for your ass. Hippies done exist anymore.
You probably base your vision on summer of Love documentaries and Portlandia.
Cooper Gray
Music is a pipe dream. Unless you know REAL industry people, which you clearly don't or else you would have already made it even with shitty music. It's not too late to get a job and start supporting your family. Get out there and hustle.
Adam King
implying i have time to watch television. i have a childhood friend who lives out in washington. if i move out there in my current state, i would be living on a farm.
Wyatt Perez
If you are going to kill yourself, imagine how your mother and sister will feel. You don't want to leave them alone.
Luis Morgan
You aren’t fucking doing anything else. What are you filling your time with?
Don’t move to the farm. You slave labor idiot. All the organic farms are labor scams.
Alexander Phillips
This thread is a circle jerk for failures.
Brandon Long
Sell bags. Read news. Buy undervalued coins HODL Take LSD Play music to keep your sanity while you wait Profit
Joseph Jenkins
actually have know a multi-grammy award winner mixer, and i've smoked weed with him a couple of times; have his contact and all. but i've been too much of a massive pussy to send him my records because i'm insecure about my mixes. i do all the songwriting, production, and engineering myself.
Xavier Gray
