How do you think an average person has 10k and 6 months of living expenses just laying about. People who need jobs aren't sitting on cash buying avocado toast.
There is a difference between not willing and not able.
It simple work a few more hours in a week, fuck your Friday night plans because your working. Fuck your plans on Saturday and Sunday and all the other hours of the week, fuck watching that new series on because your working. And when you get ahead. You sure can do what you like. It's not impossible, yall just been defeated before you left gate.
Also 10k is way too much. Find something used for 1/4 of that price.
THIS WAS ADVICE FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE A JOB!!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING??? I FEEL LIKE ICE TAKEN CRAZY PILLS!!!
The solution to not finding a job is easy, just find a job that supports you with 40 hours, but also pays you for unlimited overtime so you can do this crazy become a welder diy scheme I came up with.
Wow it's so easy! I also realised you can cure depression by just not being so damn sad anymore!
Lool if you don't even have a fuckin job bud there's even less of an excuse to not bust your ass off. In whatever the hell it is, you would end up in. It doesn't have to be welding. It could be anything
Hell get some rat traps, go door to door in a city, and sell god damn rat removal, you set and remove the rats. Go pluck weeds. Go learn carpentry and wood work for fucks sake home depot offers the DIY seminars. Yeah it's basics but it's a start. Google and YouTube how to use a paint roller. A bucket of plaster costs $20 and a putty knife like 2$ at a dollar store. Practice until you can make it so you no sanding is needed after. If you got no job then what the fuck are you doing orher then bitching about not having a job and blaming everyone around you as to why.
Don't know bout you but I've been dealing with depression for a damn long time to know what's what.
Just get down to the plastering shop and give the manager a firm handshake, that's always gotten me a job! Ass busting and firm handshakes is my policy!
