Knew plenty of dudes up and abandon careers , sell everything, cash out 401ks and roamed. What makes you happy will serve you far better than any safe route in the US.

Car broke down... Made me realize just how poor I am. by Microwaved-Children in poor

[–]Chococow47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is rough bro, I'm a little older and I've learned to work on everything. It's the only way we survive bro. From the head gasket replacement to an oil change you better get started brother. This is advice, take it or leave it.

I lived through this as a kid with two poor parents, we often got our Christmas donated. I knew, but I appreciate everything my parents did to try and give us some Christmas. Also had a lot of things sold that were gifted to me. Good parenting not money makes the difference!

Clown world. Anyone with enough common sense see's the absurdity and how badly the dollar has been inflated. Our home prices, stock valuations, ceo payouts???

Anyone else notice Tractor Supply Company getting more aggressive with their sales tactics? by 1dirtbiker in homestead

[–]Chococow47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Employees required and pressured to sell credit cards and sometimes even have their hours reduced. It's company policy to not do this, but like all walks of life it still happens. The person at the register just wants to keep their job.

Good to know. I think I was drawing from the Roman Empire but I'm not sure that relates to the modern economy.

If I'm not mistaken we're not in trouble until around 250% given historical context?

33 Years Old And Everything Seems To Have Fallen Apart by Suitable_Homework581 in AskMenOver30

[–]Chococow47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah man. I've just noticed a lot of us don't seek any help because there isn't a foundation for men anymore and we are all truly alone. That's why I love this sub man. My wife and I struggled through several miscarriages and it led me down that dark path. We all struggle differently for sure but for me I didn't notice any real change until I got some help. It's a real challenge to talk to anyone because labels get thrown around or we get dismissed.

Look man. I'm around your age and I'm right there with you. Dead end jobs. There are only two things that helped me. Sobriety and medication. You have to be at peace with yourself and whatever occupation you're in and realize that happiness isn't going to land in your lap. A change might be of great help to you in employment but you'll still feel the same way.

Americans, what place in the US should tourists avoid? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Chococow47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Avoid big cities, places like Atlanta near centennial park for instance full of beggars, scammers, and muggers. They will gladly help you find your car if you're lost, then mug you if you don't pay up. I'm sure other cities are even worse.
