What I got from this is that Anon is undergoing serious financial struggles and is trying to scrape by.
Idk why op would be buying Sennheiser or Corsair peripherals if they're struggling.i just got that op is cheap af.
Maybe bought used with like 3 months of warranty?
crypto and dropshipping and lock picking vending machines are all lies no homo
is it normal to have separate wifi networks for different people in the same apartment?
If they act like that their flatmate has every right to keep ot from them assuming they don't contribute to the bill.
Dropship things 💀
What is it?
You find something cheap from China, then you flip it to suckers on Etsy for 10x the cost.
More like 1.01x the cost. margins doing this are stupid thin
Storefront without stock, when you get order just pass it on to a whole seller with their shipping address.
Profit
That seems like a lot of constant hustle to get out of having an actual job
it is legitimately better than having a real job though. I absolutely hate working for myself but working for somebody else is even worse
Not when you make 100 times as much.
Who cares for the cash, the lost time hurts most. Jobs suck ass, even if they're mildly interesting. Could've pursued 5 hobbies instead of sitting in a stupid office doing stupid things for other people
Dude, I'm a software engineer. I work from home. Maybe 4-6 hours a day for 180k. I get to own a beautiful house on a big piece of property and play with my kid throughout the day. You're telling me thats not worth it?
Oh, and I like what I do. It's what I would choose as a hobby. And I've worked at enough startups and build up enough shares and options that I'll probably be able to retire at 40 and just travel the world financially sound from there.
If that's what you enjoy doing, then sure, it's fine :) Coding is fun, i do it as a hobby too. Probably not on your level though. But you're most likely not the absolute average working-joe.
And yes, retire as soon as you comfortably can. Did in my early 20s, would never go back. Tried once or twice for some months working, just because it sounded like a nice gig. Got bored quickly, left before I even learned some names. That was 3 decades ago or so :) Even if you love the job, traveling is probably better. And doing what you love for yourself and not for the benefit of others is even better too.
Ah yes. How to get by without a job:
- Fraud (false warranty claims)
- Theft (stealing coins from vending machine)
- Gambling (crypto)
- Literally just self-employment (starting a drop shipping business/flipping things on eBay)
"Lifehack: Literally just steal"
yeah you're only allowed to do those things if you have a net worth over 25 million
Sending in Sennheisers for warranty is silly. Their headphones are basically bullet proof, at least their typical wired open cans.
I have a Bluetooth headset made by Sennheiser. It's battery died in the first two years of use. So I bought a new battery, except it was bigger.
When I opened it up it turned out that they have thought about someone wanting a bigger battery and I only needed to break a couple of small plastic pieces to fit a longer battery in. The headset has worked fine since.
Indeed, same with audio technica, god I love their headphones
Crypto trade
There's where all the money went I guess. Gotta steal toilet paper to leverage that crypto position. (After you've already lost everything several times)
This is why companies have cheap toilet paper by the way. Not because they necessarily hate their employees, but because it would get stolen and they'd need three times as much.
Also one of the reasons why the huge rolls exist like you see at airports: impractical to use at home.
Huh, I always assume that it was because cheap toilet paper was cheap, and big rolls meant you didn't have to replace them as often.
Why not both?
Joke's on them, when I have to use cheap TP I have to use 3x as much because it's such cheap trash.
I would steal it from the train when I was homeless
I stole one of those huge rolls from college once. It dispenses just fine on the floor.
Yeah but then you're wiping floor on your ass.
There is literal shit on my arse, what difference does some floor make?
Because the bacteria in your booty hole aren't the same things that are on floor.
All this put together sounds like a job
A less ethical, worse paid, more hours than a job.
Yeah! I can’t be bothered with all this shit, I’ll just be a wagie instead.
Anon still calls mom and dad multiple times a month for money.
Fraud, theft, and bad spelling.
Trump?
That last one is unforgivable.
The last three are horseshit.
Say what you will about the morality of the other but at least they are reasonably likely to actually work.
The last three are not.
Crypto is insane horseshit unless you are running a scam, which at best is a huge amount of effort and at worst is oops time to flee to thailand.
Drop shipping and 'picking' is basically boomer nonsense that requires a huge investment of time, space and money to conceivably make it worthwhile, and it almost always goes wrong, and you end up with a garage or storage unit full of useless crap that won't sell either at all, or for a profit.
There are so many ways you can get fucked as a buyer or seller on eBay, its ludicrous.
Downloading torrents on a friend's internet is worse.
Use a cafe instead.
Anon is NEET but has a flatmate? Isn’t part of being NEET living with parents?
not necessarily. some people get on unemployment and ride it out for years.
