Invest, work on paying off your mortgage, work on getting towards where you want to be in 10 years.

Why are we on this Earth? To be a cog in a machine? To slave away for 30 years to pay off a house then rot inside of it after retiring?
No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.

eventually you just give up (srs)


Even the people saying start a family. I went to a wedding recently and a guy I know who was one of the first of my friend group to get married just bitched about his family while getting absolutely hammered during the reception. You could tell he was just as checked out on life as the rest of us.

You'll get some coping in here from both sides though. Some will use the family as a coping excuse. Non-family brahs may have a different coping excuse. The reality is everyone gives up eventually.

Family brahs always have something to do, as boring as it may be. Non-family brahs have their freedom but often don't have anything much to do, at all.

Either way THE LORD watches over all our efforts in Valhalla drinking wine and laughing at us.

Buy a new Yamaha Montage and learn how to play piano and record songs. That should keep you busy for a minute.

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows I'm miserable now

I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
And heaven knows I'm miserable now

Work towards detective Opie duh

But I assume you mean outside of climbing your career ladder


Find the hobbies you enjoy and do them when you have the time ?

If video games , the gym and guitar are what bring you happiness then keep doing those

Maybe find another musician to bounce ideas off of and play with ? I’m down to send some tracks (no homo)

Yea I’m not in a band or anything but creating music and playing riffs is always cathartic for me. Then of course there is always the gym and working on being in shape which is a continual process I just haven’t been as consistent with that much this year

I understand, I definitely have it good and things could be a lot worse. I guess I just wanna feel challenged and engaged in a positive way doing something that brings me happiness cause right now it just feels like I’m living one day to the next with no clear direction for my future

So make a change? Wtf every thing you’re complaining about is a direct result of your actions, or rather inaction. What are you looking for with this thread?

Plebs are on this earth to serve the interests of the MOGGERS. You are a servant who protects property for the wealth class and stops the unwashed masses from revolting against their masters.

It's their world. We just live in it.
