What's the point of being rich when you're over 35?
Your prime years are your 20s, once you're over 30 no amount of money can fill the void of not having maximized those years by establishing meaningful relationships to carry on once you're older.
I'm turning 32 this week, I have a house all paid and an apartment that I rent, I'm self employed and I spent my 20s working my ass off. I wasted 6 years climbing the ladder in an accounting firm and now life is fucking miserable despite having a net worth close to 800k.
It's still not /madeit status but it's well beyond what most of this board will achieve in their lifetime.
Let me give you an advice biz, if your life revolves around your investments and financial freedom then no amount of money will replace your youthful years once you're older. No this is not about getting teen pussy or whatever, this is about life experiences that you can only have when you're young.
If you're in your 20s and your top priority is worrying about crypto and stocks then you're not gonna make it regardless no matter the amount of money.
Yes, investing is a must but don't make it take control of your life.
Hope this will give some perspective to some young anons on my path.
Take care of your mental and emotional well being without making money a cope mechanism.
Good luck

You’re 32 years old, don’t even have a million dollars, don’t have kids or a wife seemingly, lmao shut the fuck up dude what do you know about anything
>What's the point of being rich when you're over 35?
I stopped reading here, if you can't understand what amazing opportunities money brings in life then you probably will never have a lot of it. You aren't above it or enlightened for having this backwards ass view.
Could be much worse user. NEET'd the entirety of my 20s with zero teen pussy and currently trying to play catch up in all regards. Net worth 50k at 34 years old, shit career in retail management and my gains are only like 20k.
Didn't make it.
Pussy is a drain on the finances
>What's the point of being rich when you're over 35?
the best part is that I don't want any stupid shit like flashy cars; that's for 20-somethings
>your prime years are your 20s
Shut up, you are not a girl and you will never be a woman.
fpbp
i'm 34 with less than 10% of op's nw
my life gets better every year
it would be significantly better still if i were rich, or even better, if i took the time to invest when i was in my 20s
obviously wagecucking for 6 years like a retard will not fulfill you, op. for some reason you mistake your poor tactical choice with a strategical problem
it's like saying "lifting is retarded. i did this one routine and i hurt my knees". the retarded thing is your routine, not lifting
shut up loser
best years in my life were 28-33
absolutely amazing time
blew my sperm into about 40 different 18 year olds
Unless you are already rich in your 20's you basically have to choose between living life and building wealth. You can also choose neither or get lucky, but guys will generally fall into one of the options and both have their pros and cons.
I refused to be a wagie and I refused to be a normie, so now I am reaping the punishments and the rewards of those choices.
You wrote a lot
But you said nothing.
Are you a kike or some shitalian?
Hurrr durrr best years of your life don’t waste it like what do you even mean nigger? There’s nothing you can do that can stop these years from being wasted. Time passes no matter what you do
Everything you can do in your 20s, you can also do in your 30s. But what you can't do (or not as much) in your 30s is take as many risks as you can in your 20s. Your 20s should be for building your wealth, knowledge and skills for your future, and of course for enjoying life.
I'm 22 and my mind is focused on setting up myself for the future so in 5-10 years I will never have to work again and just enjoy my life. I will still make money for the fun of it but it will be through something I enjoy doing.
You just fucked up big time by only wagecucking and doing nothing else in your 20s man. I enjoy holidays with friends every summer, clubbing, spending time on my hobbies, working out. Just because you couldn't do it because of a weak mindset doesn't mean we can't.
Having a kid or wife doesn't change my point. Also I had more than a couple of girls, that's not the issue, you're reaching.
Money is not the problem, letting them define your persona and personality is.
It's never too late user, I had friends like this and sooner or later you're going to find balance in your life regardless of money
Well would you rather be over 35 and fucking poor? Double whammy for sure.
Me 23, managed to convert $2.5k to $12.5k in 4 months. Couldn't sleep well, there were times when I'd be so stressed out I couldn't eat well, spoke up in the middle of the night just to check my investments.
After 4 months I started burping a lot, I passed blood in my stool, the right side of my abdomen hurt a lot now and then, then reflux got real bad, couldn't even make exercise to make it better because the food would always return like undigested, was disgusting. Got diagnosed an stress induced dispepsia, my stomach had a wound inside and had to start a really hard diet to fix it.
Yeah, is not worth it bros, the doctors even told me it could be cancer, that would have meant ALL MY GAINS GONE in 2 or 3 chemos, is not fucking worth it. Right now I make slow and steady gains (still better than boomer stocks) and have no stress problems, yeah I might no be able to become rich like the STUPID CUNTS MOTHERFUCKERS THAT BOUGHT $RFI EARLY OR $KP3R OR $BASE FUCK YOU ALL, but I'm definitely making money and feeling great.
Life is not enjoyable for me, it is extremely painful and humiliating. I scrape together savings and invest to stop being in that place. I'm sure you look back on youth as a fun carefree time but there is a fucking duty to prepare for the future as much as possible.
The real kicker here is that you can still focus on success and have great life experiences and build relationships, you just didn’t.
You're just like me. You need to learn to stop giving a fuck about nearly everything.
Maybe if you think about it less in terms of things you get to do which you’ve missed out on, you think about it in terms of things you don’t have to do, it will make sense.
Yeah, but what if you're an ugly insecure guy and basically any chance I have at happiness is accumulating wealth. Since it's impossible to build meaningful lasting relationships since noone ever wants to hang out with you.
I had ulcer problems as well around your age, I still suffer the consequences a decade later.
What diet did you have to do to remedy your problem?
The point is always the same: freedom.
Freedom to only work if you want.
Freedom to associate with, and avoid people of your choice.
Freedom from want, freedom to choose where you live.
You both are right. I just wish I knew these things when I was younger
What do you need to do in order to not consider your youth wasted?
I don't care
I'm miserable now, I've been miserable in the past, and I'll be miserable in the future. That's not going to change, I just have brain problems.
Being miserable with money is better than being miserable without money. So the best way forward is to get as much money as possible.
Good advice, except your 20s are not prime your prime years unless you're doing something wrong and give up on life. The lessons and income I learned and earned in my 20s set the foundations for the life I'm living now. Wouldn't trade it in. Also had enough living in my 20s for a lifetime, and life only gets better from there.
The good news is you have a good amount of money, a steady income from your job, and you're ONLY 32. You may feel like it's late or you missed out on much but you really didn't. At your current position, you can "catch up" in literally one or two years. You have enough money to go anywhere and do anything. You're literally in the prime position almost 99% of people in this board wish to be. People would kill to be in your current position. Maybe it's your mindset you gotta change man. You pretty much made it. Go enjoy it the way YOU want.
this year i fucked 2 23yo guys and there is another 19yo messaging me, made 100k in crypto and in my best shape physically i've ever been
i turned 31 2 months ago
stay depressed and stay a fucking wagecuck
I can't give you an exhaustive answer.
For me, in part was always sacrificing my time and my social life in order to build wealth and advance in my field. I have so many random small episodes where I wish I did something different but unfortunately I had a different mindset where my career was above everything else.
For example I moved to a big Italian city just for a bigger pay check leaving my first gf behind for 2 years while she was still in uni. I just had to take a job in my hometown and things would've turned way different because of that.
You don't fully realize on the spot but they come to haunt you later
>Prime ends after 30 years old
Does not apply to men
Things aren't that simple but you're right.
It's not too late for me and my post was an advice for younger anons to not get burnt by the hunger for money.
Despite that, mentally and emotionally I'm
still drained
from someone whos "made it" (trust fund) ive probably had more pussy than alot of you combined and ill tell you right now, its over rated, if you wanna be truly happy get on the needle or something, those fuckers will live in a tent and are the happiest people ive ever met and your pussy problems would be solved
>lifes over after you hit your 30's
like did your dick stop working? do you not have enough energy to go outside or pursue hobbies. it was just parties, drama, being broke and irresponsible. plenty of people still doing these things well into their 40's.
