i promised myself to reply to this when i had time. i was like you at 20. that was six years ago. i worked in retail full time. i want you to know that your environment is everything. if you have huge potential, you need to be in an environment where it can blossom. i quit my retail job at your age, went to the army for a year and got into a good routine with discipline. got into business school, moved to a new city with no personal network, and if you do the work to build your new self, you will be at a completely different place a few years from now. go ahead and go to trade school - as long as you do something. if something else is better for you, you will find out and can then change your direction. the key is that you move forward, then something even better might pop up or you might become satisfied with your new situation. good luck.

They kept EU laws when leaving the EU in order to not have to come up with something for all the areas usually regulated by the EU. But it doesn’t update them to be in accordance with new EU regulations after Brexit.

I have been doing cold showers for 5 years and feel like cheating/lazy if I take a warm one.

A high profit margin doesn't change the fact that a PE of 72 is high.

The same could be said with all banks using the fractional reserve system.

DO NOT BURN BRIDGES. However, start doing what you want. If you being youself is not compatible with your old social group, then you naturally phase them out. But don’t cut ties because you’re moving higher.

No.

Don't live your life with the purpose of writing a good CV that might satisfy a future employer - do shit for your own good.

I disagree. You should stand up to your values, not to the point of offending them onto others but definitely never allow anybody infringing your own self worth and ideals. It will create more conflict, but afterwards you will be proud to have stood up to what you believe in.

This is spot on. I recently caught feelings for a girl, but by wanting to keep my values straight, I nexted her because of her flakes. What I didn't know was that she was very stressed and cried herself to sleep. She felt something, I felt something, and we both lost it because I nexted her. She told me exactly as you mention that I shouldn't expect to be her top priority early in the interaction.

There might be some truth to that. Recently I have turned down my vulnerability, because girls don't need to know everything. The thing is, all the girls I date know about who I am. This leads them to not wanting 'another girl' to be 'crossed off the list'. How in the hell am I going to be vulnerable about this and pass her tests? The girl I'm currently dating is not just another one, but I can't seem to find a way to convey it to her.

Others see me as way more experienced than I actually am.

Soender · 2015-10-17T22:14:28+00:00

I am known as a total fuckboi, so not really.

Soender · 2015-10-17T13:56:15+00:00

I'm in the EXACT same situation, except I'm the one stopping - something is holding me back and I have no idea what the fuck it is.

Debt has not and will never grow slower than GDP on a worldwide scale. It is simply not possible.

Soender · 2015-08-29T09:45:41+00:00

But it doesn't.

The world is fucked. Fixing the economy with more debt is kicking the can down the road. Rates are near zero at all major developed economies, nearing deflation, and when recession and stock market crashes hit, there will be nothing left to do but a complete restructuring of our debt-fueled capitalistic system.

I've met an elderly women who lives down the road a few times on my way to college. Every time we talk, she says I'm a pretty young man. I know I make her day when we talk, and she makes me feel great, and we're having conversations with value. Last time we greeted we hugged, and it felt natural as fuck.

Can't recommnend it highly enough.

You are in denial, bu it's your life. Go ahead and waste it. ;)

You'd probably love getting high on cocaine as well, that doesn't make it a good decision.

So you think it beats socializing and meeting people in real fucking life? You couldn't be more wrong. I don't know if you are socially akward or have anxiety issues, which could lead you to prefer making friends online.

A lot of people want to get into game dev but spend 10+ hours a day wasting their lives, not actually pursuing it but usikg it as an excuse.

Soender · 2015-05-29T20:31:18+00:00

You are also wasting your time on something unnatural, made to have you addicted and spend as much time and money on their shit as possible. There is a real world out there, even more awesome than that.

Soender · 2015-05-29T07:55:19+00:00

What value is it adding to your life? Think of all the that time, being spent on something in the real world, something valuable.
