why do I envy wagecucks?

[Anonymous No.10595786]

Many of you make fun of wagecucks. And I understand you. I also don't want to work my life away.

But why do I still get depressed when I see young kids becoming doctors, lawyers and all these high prestige jobs?
While I wasted my teenage years depressed, mentally unstable and on drugs, their parents taught them discipline and everything. They graduated with top marks and now become the next elite.


If I ever had potential, it is gone, their is nothing left. No energy to do it. Bad experiences that haunt me. All I will ever be is a office wagecuck. And even though I wouldn't even want to have the stress of these jobs, I feel compeletly worthless.
One life at chance. Not even reached halftime and it is already over.


Do I also have to shill wagecuck threads to feel better?

Most of them are depressed too. You just dont see it and get distracted by the labels. Everyone is just like you...Always feeling inadequate, never have enough money, Not sure happy in their relationships, and feel that things would be better if they where just "Someone else". Unless you last name is Rothchild, we're all wage-cucking to make it.

Hey, friend. I've been employed for twelve years. In retail. No regrets.

So, I'm gonna wager you're still in your 20s, right?

Yeah, the whole 'have your life set up by 25 or you're worthless' meme is cope that NEET-kun uses to feel less inadequate.

The guy who started KFC didn't get his break until he was 54.

There are fat dudes at 61 who declared 'fuck it' and started running and are doing marathons at 100.

But yeah, everyone feels inadequate. Even millionaires worry they don't have enough money. That's just normal. You gotta pretty much tell that part of your brain to shut the fuck up.

You do your job, you enjoy it as you can. You invest money if you can. If you wanna roll the dice, sure, go for crypto, but basic standard shit works too. You can either go insane 'work-till-you-drop' and try to live it up in retirement, or just slowly ease back your hours as your passive income goes and accept a more middling scenario but with more free time. It's a tradeoff.

Remember, NEET-kun either happened to be one of the 10% that actually makes money off crypto, or is sponging off his parents. Don't worry about trying to be him.

This.

It’s all in your head OP. The sooner you let go of giving a fuck about others and realize you’re gonna die one day, then you’ll be able to enjoy your life. You don’t know how miserable they are. Chances are if they are a doctor or lawyer, they work long hours and probably are miserable.

But anyways, that’s why we gamble on these shitcoins. Try to get some money to get to a better place in life.

but it is not the same.

When people meet them, they are in awe. They get respected. At least they can say that they have achieved something.

I have achieved nothing. When I die, I can only say, I have wasted my life. Since my teenage years, nothing but a constant downhill ride straight into the grave.

Nobody is in awe. Lawyers are a bunch of leeching fucking faggots. Doctors are cool but everyone of them is under insane stress. Plus nowadays everyone threatens to sue them all the time. It’s probably better to just be a physicians assistant. Less schooling and less pay, but seems like a better balance

Fuck that noise. Plumbers do a ton of good work. Imagine an office building with no janitors, after one week.

Every single fucking job is meaningful, it's just the fucking bullshit meme that the value of your job to society has anything to do with how much you get paid.

Or do you think Elon's honestly worth that much for his hard work of 'tell an engineer to build something'?

You are probably right.

But when I get depressed, I always put them on a pedestal and probably romanticize their professions. I guess that's just normal if you feel worthless yourself, like with girls.

Absolute non-wagie here. Quit job since Nov last year (I wrote a thread about this yesterday asking for a travel friend). Here's what I gotta tell you about happiness: Life's really dull if you don't do anything productive (at least feel like you're progressing things) and feel depressed all day everyday. Here's my protip for you on how to earn quick happiness: give back to community. Anything small would do. Eg. Compliment people on the streets to even organize a food fest for the homeless if youre rich. You will feel awesome by doing this. Trust me anon op.

That "Awe" feeling you describe does not satisfy you. It might make you feel good for a second or two, but its just a minor high for the moment..its like a hit off a joint, or busting a nut. It does not sustain people. Everyone is sad, everyone is barely hanging on, whether you want to believe it or not.

Who said you have to work in an office? Millions of people work in jobs they like, that don't involve an office. Stop being such a fucking crybaby, and look for work that actually does something for you, and go do it. Move to a cheaper area if it doesn't pay a lot.
Most of you need therapy, not money. Stop sniveling and go do something in the sun, instead of crying while staring at a computer screen, for fuck's sake.

That’s normal. We all do it. They do it too. But you’ve made an incorrect belief that you need to break that because in your teenage years you did blow or were a burnout or whatever that you fucked your whole life up.

Nobody cares. We all were dumbasses as teens. You would be fucking dumb to think that something in the past that is literally nothing more than a thought in YOUR brain,( because you’re the only one that gives a shit) determines your future.

I’ll give you a life tip. If you don’t follow this, continue to be mediocre. If you want to change and actually feel happy, do this:

1) Stop looking at porn. It is completely draining your dopamine. It’s impossible to feel like you enjoy life.
2) work out regularly
3) cut carbs
4) only eat between 2pm-9pm

Guaranteed you’ll be happier. 100%. Happiness is a meme. What you’re actually supposed to focus on is worth and value.

Worth and value in business creates revenue. When it grows, you invest in it.

When you’re not growing, you feel depressed. Happiness comes from growing. (Health, money, goals).

Seriously I know this sounds like the gayest meme cliche bullshit but once I stopped being a faggot and realized life is just about always becoming a better person daily, little bullshit daily become more meaningful.

But honestly the biggest change was cutting porn. That shit seriously made me a depressed mediocre faggot for like 10 years. Completely ruined me.

I spent three years of my life fighting a really aggressive form of cancer. I got tons of praise and everyone was in awe that I survived, constantly told me how "strong" I was, and lucky. I wage-cuck at a decent job just like everyone else, volunteer at childrens hospitals, donate to the ASPCA and I'm always super depressed even after all of that.

[Anonymous No.10596192]

I am really thankful for your answers, they are really uplifting.

I guess I just have to do my own thing. My wasted youth cant be repeated and I need to work with what I have and stop romanticising other people's lives.

That's your choice to make man. You can do stuff. It's not too late to get started. Easier at 20 than at 30, easier at 30 than at 40, etc. If you feel like your life meant nothing that's nobody's fault but yours because the only one that can find any meaning in the whole pointless universe for yourself is you.

Anon, I was in that exact spot 2 years ago. I fucked up hard when I was young, moved out, got into drugs, dropped out of school after one semester, and ended up in a place between poverty and slavery like most do. I floated job to job in a daze of failure and meaninglessness. I tried to start a business. That failed. I finally burned out in 2016 and dropped out of society at large. There I lived the NEET life, if for just a few months. Around that time, I found out what I really wanted to do in life from footage in some video montage set to Floral Shoppe 420. A school in my area had that program of study, so I signed up. Since then, many missing pieces of the puzzle I was looking for a few years ago have fallen together.. If that makes sense.

I'm still undoing bad choices I made 10 years ago. These mistakes used to haunt me, but now I've come to realize that I only made them because I did not know any better.

Read the stoics, take a walk to a place you've never been in person. Find what you are looking for, anon. You can always make it, but wisdom is what helps you make it again and again.

Similar to op but I am a wagecuck working for a very low income. I work in banking operations, the experience I gained is not transferable, not like an account or audit. Low paid, limited jobs available.
I know I am unhappy unfulfilled.
Resigned last month, about to be NEET again. My brain is telling me I made a right choice of quitting this dead ending job with no future but it always telling me that I will have no income and hr will hamper me of not having a job.
I know I don't want to be in operations but I don't know what I want, finding what kind of job I want has always been my struggle
