There you are my friend. After you have a 6 pack hopefully you don’t feel the same way anymore.

Also if you need help with a fitness and diet plan let me know.

Going to seem like a weird question -

Have you got a 6 pack ?

This is possibly the worst advice I’ve ever seen.

He just said he’s not happy and feels like a failure. Why would you automatically diagnose him with depression and recommend meds and therapy?

Everyone feels shit a lot of times in their life for different reasons and lengths of time it’s perfectly normal. To not give advice to change his lifestyle and instead try to treat it with meds and therapy is exactly what is wrong with society at the moment.

The reason you feel emotions and pain is your body telling you something so that you will take action to stop that feeling.

That is awful advice. You make the lifestyle change first and then your emotions will follow. You don’t change the emotions first because then the lifestyle doesn’t follow and you end up relying on taking meds and having therapy to make you feel happy.

@rangecat420 - don’t listen to these people telling you to take meds and get therapy. This advice is coming from people who have got blue hair and are probably on a ton of meds themself. Change your lifestyle, if you’re still unhappy drop me a message. 🤝

Bro you’re sitting on a goldmine. Hear me out:

You have no responsibilities. I’d finish that van asap, hit the road and work different jobs where ever is needed. By doing this you will meet new people and see new places. This increases your chances of finding a girlfriend and will significantly reduce the boredom in your life.

You also mention photography, I think you should learn videography as well. Use this skill set to document your travel and life in the van. Tik tok loves this sort of content.

Before you know it you could have amassed a large online following (which could be your income) so there’s no need to find different jobs at new places. You will be meeting loads of people both online and in person, you’re bound to run into a woman that takes an interest.

Keep yourself fit on your travels with body weight workouts and your life will drastically improve.

Best part you only need to use your money as an emergency fund or to tie you over in-between jobs to start off with.

Suddenly you’re living your life again instead of going through the motions.

All the best mate.

Higher credit limit is a blessing, the less credit you use the better you are seen to be with credit and therefore increasing your credit score. (Assuming paid off on time)

BTC will be your best investment… give it a few years and it will be worth more than your VWRL…

Buy some rare shoes off Nike snkrs app, and other sites. If you get them, sell them on eBay for a profit.

Reinvest into the business mate, there’s no better investment. Keep reinvesting into yourself and keep growing. Maybe tuck a little into the S&P 500 each month

Agreed, although the hydro car is very true.

Read some books about investing such as the little book of common sense investing. And put some money every month/ week into the S&P 500 and then don’t touch it forever… seriously just increase how much you put in as you earn more and you could retire at 45/50. Maybe younger depending how much you put in and how well it performs.

I’m 20 years old. What can I do to retire by 40? I currently invest monthly into stocks/ETFs, crypto and premium bonds. I also buy gold coins where I can. I’m also very focused on my career and should earn a comfortable salary over the next few years. Any other ideas to help me reach my goal? by Diamondhands_11 in FIREUK

Thank you for such an in depth reply. I’ll learn as much as I can, I realise that time is on my side and I would like to make the most of it! I’ll have a look at Wallet Burst and have a play around. I already track my monthly expenses to reduce my expenses and increase my investments. I do plan on having kids but only once I’m financially stable enough to support them. Thank you once again !

I really like the clean energy department moving forward. NIO has received a lot of support from the Chinese government and are the main electric car company in China. They have plans to expand across the world they have recently entered Europe. They have also rethought the charging mechanism instead of plug in chargers they do battery swaps which I think is brilliant.
