Anyone else in this boat? Your serious work is ignored but some total shit work is selling?
I am talking about having your serious work ignored but something you never intended to be public being praised.
Maybe like The Wiggles. Imagine them. I am sure none of those guys thought, "I am going to be a super famous children's songwriter." They all probably had serious musical goals.

How do I have meaningless sex with 4-5 new women per week?
Camden Wood
The masses prefer shit
Anthony Bailey
>meaningless sex with 4-5 new women per week tell me how
Jack Brown
Be a reasonably handsome white guy in Tokyo with a good paying job. Use various dating apps and chat up lots of girls at the same time. It really isn't difficult at all. The hardest part is cleaning all the hair and makeup out of my apartment.
Cooper Ross
for real op whats ur secret who cares about your life give us your sex tips
Ryder Edwards
how do i live in tokyo what do i have to do to make this happen
David Cooper
This and don't just ask for sex. I usually talk to them politely and when they ask about meeting I hint that I don't want anything serious because of a bad experience. Most meet for a drink and come back to my place within the first week of talking to them.
Jayden Ward
First, do not under any circumstances come to teach English. The pay is shit and only lower class women will be interested. Also, no IT based shit either.
Get a professional degree, I studied law and work in finance for a foreign firm here. Other good choices are economics and marketing.
Matthew Barnes
hope u know my comment was half parody going along with the whole "nobody cares about your serious work" theme
Carson Torres
Also, women here are attuned to finding money. You have to dress well (I have a great tailor in Yokohama) and stay fit (I am at the gym every morning no matter how shit I feel).
Parker Robinson
Will a bachelor in math give me any chance to work there? or do I need a PhD.
Daniel Fisher
getting an electrical engineering degree, is that a thing; don't I have to know japanese? I know literally all the hiragana and katakana from my weeaboo days way back when
anyway terrible lifestyle rolemodels make the best childrens stories, it's not that bad of a legacy; people can still take you seriously
Charles Green
op get back here im not done with u
Dominic Diaz
go to korea girls are better
Christopher Sanchez
If this is the same poster, do you publish through a Japanese Publisher?
Connor Richardson
I'm a med student. Am i welcome in tokyo?
Luis Perry
fucking weebs. just know you're literally hated and will never, NEVER, be accepted in an asian (especially japanese) society.
enjoy having fucked up children with identity issues
enjoy having the only type of woman to make u feel like a man
enjoy being an outsider for the rest of your unnatural pathetic life
Noah Sanchez
whos the weeb u weeb
Benjamin Russell
anyone living in asian permanently. they are failures that can't make it in their native country.
Drop the ego, drink the profits, happiness through developing a legacy is idiocy.
Jordan Anderson
Don't you understand, OP? None of the things you want to make you happy will make you happy. Deal with what you have, which to be honest aside from the shitty job doesn't sound so bad. You're alive, aren't you? Drop the wallowing alcoholic artist act already. If you wanted to be anything other than another lousy chink-fucking expat (and I'm a lousy chink-fucking expat myself) you'd get off your useless ass and be it.
Jaxson Sullivan
What a shame. I used to really like this guy's videos, but apparently he's turned into a very bitter and prejudiced individual. Genuinely intelligent people don't make sweeping generalisations like this.
Jordan Brooks
My image didn't upload, but this is you for sure.
Jason Torres
I'm confused. In order to even live in Japan as a US citizen, you have to at the very least have a 4-year degree even to teach English; just to live there you have to not be a failure. In fact, if anything, I think the failures are the majority, the majority that experience culture shock rather than appropriating
and by "native country"; you mean the place I was arbitrarily born in that just so happens to fall within the domain of the United States? The place my family, like three generations ago just decided to settle? What's binding me here that isn't arbitrary?
Logan Moore
>nasty ass chin fuzz, calling people losers for expatriating to foreign countries, assuming they are there with unskilled labor or supporting themselves with foreign funds abroad
I meet these people so much, not when I'm traveling, but when some bitter kid from the suburbs of my hometown talks about "moving out" or "backpacking", I hear this exact same thing echoed, always. And if they ever get to go as far as Chicago, or to any othe cities I've been, their attitude changes completely. Nothing that he is saying is real, or anything he *actually* believes in; it's the same misguided and directionless anger that you see on a retarded kid's face who is throwing a tantrum out of confusion, only that he's able to communicate more succinct thoughts.
I'm not an Asian expat btw, I just hear this so much and it's always from someone who hasn't had sex in 2 years and works some job like a burrito roller and grew up in the burbs of the burbs
Christian Carter
>The Wiggles. Imagine them. I am sure none of those guys
steady stream of milfs, get to influence young minds, do whatever goofy shit you want to on stage, insane royalties, greatest gig on earth
Christian Harris
that was beautiful man
John Howard
Secondary degrees are a must.
Yes. You have to know Japanese. You will need N1 on the JLPT and 2 on the KanKen.
US
I have never seen foreign doctors here. Maybe in a company as a researcher.
Exactly.
In my case I was married to a Japanese girl in the US. She wanted to come home so we did. After we had a kid she went crazy. I know if I ever leave I will probably never see my kid again so that is why I said "stranded."
Ayden Bailey
Keep selling out. The reason artists are famous for starving is because they actually do starve.
Leo Butler
Got kicked in urethra huh?

Hm.

There's literally no reason to move to any Asian country except to expect an easier time supporting yourself and finding women because you're having a hard time of it at home.
And no, having a bachelors in an easy major does not make you a success.
Carson Brown
Yet another thread full of attention seeking lies. This is probably the same person as the norwegian cabin guy. Please stop.
Austin Cruz
>if you have any skill you're gonna be in your country No. If I had any skill I would leave my country because it's a shithole. I would move to Japan or any country. I wouldn't go to teach English though, I would like to apply for a teaching position in a univesity in japan or korea someday.
Bentley Sanders
(You, never left your hometown because you believe people only travel to have an easier time supporting themselves and finding women)
Tyler Stewart
>No. If I had any skill I would leave my country because it's a shithole you are part of the biggest problem that we have in the world today. help rebuild your fucking country instead of running away from it
>being born into a country makes you a slave to it
top spook m8 i'm gonna raid your country and fuck your women while you tell me that i'm part of the problem as you see it
Jaxson Ramirez
You're just afraid of getting sidelined because you're short and effeminate like all Asian males.
Jaxon Butler
wonderful strawman. if your country is a shithole and if you have any dignity and care for your country then you should stay and help rebuild it. immigrating is the worst thing u can do
Joseph Powell
you literally just doubled down on your nationality spook.
I'm just glad cucks like you take pride in their cuckoldry. Makes my part a lot more satisfying.
Jack Howard
underrated
Kayden Gomez
did you even watch the video? do you have cognitive dissonance?
Samuel Rivera
TRIPLING DOWN ON SPOOKS. MY GOD, JENSEN, I'VE NEVER SEEN SUCH A SPOOKED INDIVIDUAL. HE LITERALLY CAN'T BREAK OUT OF THE MENTAL PRISON HE PUTS HIMSELF IN WITH EVERY BIT OF CULTURE HE CONSUMES. SOMEONE GET THIS MAN A SENSE OF SELF-WORTH.
Asher Gutierrez
ah, i see. cognitive dissonance at its finest. good luck with that
Aiden Reed
You can smell the resentment off him, awkward loosers from the West coming over, getting employment and sleeping around.
He is right about ex-pat having the same meaning as migrant though.
Nathan Torres
>rebuild cognitive dissonance? that's some fuckign shitty rhetoric mate.
Jonathan Long
I don't want to help my fellow countrymen. In fact, they are the main reason I plan to leave the country.
Brandon Foster
Oh shit! I didn't know the gumballs guy was still alive.

you are so beta you do not even know it just keep pleasing the few women who notice you and stop whining for not being something else than a beta
Sebastian Anderson
if you want to earn reasonable money in ant foreign country and unless you are a world-class specialist you need to know this place language
Jackson Miller
How do you motivate yourself to write. I´m quite fine right now economically speaking but find no strength to think anything, I feel empty
