It is wut it is lol no one loves me so I love myself twice as much and had a lot of free time to dedicate to developing skills and now I make 6 figures and barely work 4 hours a week and I turn 30 next year. Should be a millionaire within a couple years if people keep shunning me at this rate ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Bro, mind if I ask your profession? Medicine takes a lot of time out of your life and it is quite jading, may I ask what is this profession that allows you wealth and only takes 4 hours? Too late for me, but others might learn.
But really it’s hustling; I have a 2 year medical technology degree. It pays on average 40-50K a year right out the bat. I’m licensed in 6 different fields so basically if there’s a test for something, I can perform it. I started out in the ER lab working nights making about 40K, once I gained enough experience to apply for other jobs that wanted “2 years experience” I moved onto a more specialized field in blood banking and bumped myself up to 60K. Because our degrees are so rare (cause the dumbass media and schools push people into nursing) with my 2 years experience, I was running a level 2 trauma centers blood banks second shift at age 25 lol. I was literally bossing people around well over twice my age. I spent 2 years doing that and eventually got pissed off because MY boss was so incompetent and I was essentially doing her work for her so I quit and went to another hospital. But I learned a LOT about management, people, and how to organize time so efficiently I could literally sit there and draw on my tablet while my crew did all the work. So I took a pay cut back down to 50K and went to work at another hospital and within a week I was treated to “tranny diversity training” and a week after that I was accused of racism for saying “Mexican”. So I said fuck this and my roommate told me about traveling jobs in medicine and I signed up and holy fuck I was selling myself short! They were willing to pay 70K a year BASE and find and pay my rent and utilities AND give a 50$/day tax free gas and food stipend. Right before I was set to ship out, some doctor walked into the lab asking if he had a certain machine. Told him no and he left and as he was leaving I was like “uhh why?” And he’s like “oh I run my own practice and we’re building a lab and need someone to run the machine” and I got his info and had an interview the next day with the CEO. Dude matched my traveling offer they were so desperate for someone.
Now remember, I was used to running 6-10 machines AT ONCE. Now I have one... and I’m in charge of it and no one else tells me what to do. Also I have zero time sensitive work, our patients come once a month and I have until their next visit to get results back. He matched a six figure salary for me to essentially wait all week for someone else to organize the pee for me and order them and I come in and squirt them into Plastic tubes and put stickers on them while I watch TV and put them on a machine and let them run for 4 hours while I read and when they’re done I hit “send results” and go home lol.
Now mind you I WORKED MY ASS OFF to build a system and train people to adhere to it for that to work lol.
It was a bit of luck and being in the right place at the right time and having the experience I did to make it work.
Some more benefits to my job; I have a key to the lab. I come and go whenever I want. My insurance is so good I just had a 6 hour shoulder rebuild surgery and it costs me 200$ total. Would have been completely free if I went thru my primary but this surgeon worked on Pro athletes and I wanted the best. I have a business card I can order any supplies I need. And I’m considered an executive by everyone there, even the doctors since I essentially built their workflow. Oh and I’m allowed to threaten DOCTORS with their jobs now lol I literally just got that privilege earlier this week. Could you imagine being a doctor and some 29 year old kid is like “ay quit fuckin around or you’re fired”? That’s my life right now lol.
It all boils down to simple economics really; supply and demand. I’ve been working since I was 14 years old. I started off bagging groceries and pushing carts every weekend thru high school to save up for a car that costs me more to maintain than I even made lol gas was 4$ a fucking gallon and I made 5$ an hour. It was bullshit. I literally had to work an hour to afford to get to work. But I busted my fucking ass cause I ain’t no bitch and worked any job I could. Before I go on another tangent, what I’m getting at is I learned an absolute fuckton of extremely valuable information while essentially being a corporate slave in my teens. People are fucking stupid and EVERYONE lucks their way into a position. Even at 14 years old I saw some very very stupid management and instead of ever getting pissed, I always thought, “if they can do it, why can’t I? If these numbnuts can run businesses, how hard can it be?” So that was my first vacuum I noticed, lack of good management. I figured a monkey could do better than half these people so all I had to do was be better than a monkey and I’d be valuable. So I checked out like 100 books on management and self improvement and developing people skills. And learned on the job because I forgot, my first job out of high school, I ran night shift because my degree was higher than the girl who had been there 2 years lol. So I HAD to learn.
The second vacuum I saw was my degree. My dad has half the certifications I have and he doesn’t even have to look for work, they find him. And he’s 75 years old. It’s a dying skill but it’s not going away lol. Especially with COVID. Who the fuck you think is running those COVID tests? Not those dumbass nurses who are the “heroes” apparently. Nope. That’s my rich ass in the background collecting money because we are forgotten lol. I literally have to explain to everyone I meet that someone has to test your blood, it doesn’t just go into a tube and the nurses shakes it and gets results. It’s almost like a trade in a way.... like how no one thinks about plumbers and electricians and they make bank? Exactly how my profession is. So anyways. That’s a simple “supply and demand” extrapolated as best I can from my complicated mind. I knew all this from an early age cause I got a head start in life. Most people don’t get their first job til their 20s, have no experience dealing with the real world and essentially have to be babysat. I dealt with all that by the time I was 16 lol I knew how a business ran and operated and how it made money all before I turned 18. And it’s NOT TOO LATE for anyone. Grab your fucking life by the reigns and take some goddamn control. If you don’t like your job, tell them to suck your dick and find a new one. If you don’t like where you are in life, get your shit together and fix what’s wrong. (This is why everyone shuns me btw. No one lives up to my standards and can’t really take me constantly pointing out their fucking excuses and lack of motivation or willpower to actually change. Everyone wants to be a millionaire but no one wants to work for it. If you wanna hang with me, you better be bringing me money or advice at this point cause I’ve fuckin had it with mooching clowns. I’d honestly be a millionaire by now if it weren’t for fake frens and women lol I wish they would have shunned me I’d be so much further ahead by now)
Anyways. Hope all this helps. Always happy to provide some motivation or advice or whatever to you guys cause y’all are my frens cause I don’t have any lol and none of you try and get me to buy you shit or get mad when I point out BS. So I love helping each and every one of you however I can!
Actually, I am kind of interested. I am just a few months away from finishing an expensive degree. The process has taken around a decade of my life. If I place into where I want, there is another 3 years of a residency, and then decent money. But, there is so much by way of hierarchy, ego, and abuse in this field, it makes me wonder if I want to put up with 3 years of 12+ hour shifts and almost no days off a week, particularly as I'd like to start developing skills with women at this point in my life, and maybe eventually a family.
In other words ... could you tell me a bit about these certificates and how to get them? Any you recommend? Would my degree, in a few months, help at all? I certainly wouldn't mind a side income or an alternative to the prison that this profession has been to my life.
I can do my best; but literally everyone who asks me who to get what I have, I’m clueless now.... they shut down the program at my school the year after I graduated. And only 2 other universities had the program in the state that I knew of and one shut down another year later. It essentially really is just like a trade: I went to a program for 2 years and learned nothing but medical technology classes. After classes, the program had a contract with the hospitals to place us for our unpaid interns which took about 1 year total. That’s the hardest part now because I can tell you how to get the degree, but you’re shit outta luck trying to find a hospital to let you do your rotations. The degree is online now but YOU have to go to the hospitals and beg them to let you work for free lol. And they never take students because they’re already understaffed as it is (btw this is florida. I’m not sure about other states but I can’t imagine it being much different since the travel companies were paying so much. Oh and THEY make money too so the hospitals pay them like 200 grand a year to pay you 100 grand a year. It’s absolutely insane and what’s crazy is ANYWHERE there is more than 100 people living, you have a job because you damn doctors are CONSTANTLY ordering tests 😂.
If I were in your shoes (and keep in mind I know fuckall about you except what you’ve told me lol so let me know if anything is wrong and I can try and rethink for ya!) I’d finish what you’re doing if you’ve come this far. What sucks about medical school is you could have been a trash man instead of going to school and would have MADE at least a million dollars by now instead of spent money on tuition and time on not making money.) I remember learning this in grade school; and I think people tend to forget; money isn’t real. At all. It’s made up. Your TIME is your most valuable asset. Every second that goes by, you can NEVER get back. Money comes and goes. I knew there was a process to climbing the workforce ladder and I knew no one was ever going to hand it to me so I HAD to go thru the process with an end goal in mind of wanting to run/manage/own companies. That’s where the money is. Why be a doctor when I can start a business and hire doctors and tell them what to do? Why be a lawyer when I can hire lawyers? Why waste my entire 20s dedicating myself to ONE subject when I could learn just enough about EVERYTHING to manipulate and pay other people who spent their time learning that shit to do it for me. The most successful people on earth didn’t even bother with college, so obviously they aren’t teaching you much of anything worthwhile there IMO.
I think the trick is to KNOW what you want out of life and pursue that ruthlessly. And know when to make sacrifices that will help in your pursuit of that. And have enough foresight to predict one single question “is this sacrifice going to pay off in the end? Will what I’m sacrificing now come back with even greater returns in the end? Because you’re always sacrificing something for another. You sacrificed your 20s, women, time, money, sanity in pursuit of a medical degree. When you get it, from my understanding, your 20s won’t return, your time will still be spent working relentlessly, the money will be good but I have no idea what kind of med school debt you racked up, plus you’ll see huge paycheck numbers and start buying a bunch of shit and big houses cause “I’m a doctor now. Why not” and those bills combined with student loan payments will eat you up. Btw every doctor I know is massively in debt lol one of them is asking me for real estate advice because he’s in his 50s and has zero money set aside for retirement and huge debt. And lastly, they’re all batshit insane lol so I doubt you’ll get that back either.
All that being said, I don’t want to scare you from finishing. You’re still in a position to make MUCH better choices than them. Once you start getting paid, I would take that money and learn how to make it work for you so you can get out of that shit ASAP. but at the same time, LEARN EVERYTHING YOU CAN. One thing I don’t like about doctors is they think they’re above everything. Every single one of them gets pissed if they’re even bothered to change their password or click something more than once. Learn how the practice you work for is run and operated. Learn every single persons job, and why and how they do it. Most importantly go learn about billing and insurance and the laws/regulations that govern healthcare in your state. Learn every single piece of info you can and write it all down. And save your money. Don’t buy a big house or nice cars. Get the cheapest shit you can and dump your paychecks into loan repayments and build your credit as much as possible and your savings account. Then when the time is right; you’ll have several VERY valuable assets;
you will learn how a medical practice is RUN and operated
you will be debt free with a positive bank account and if you pay off your debts and loans ASAP, your credit will skyrocket. This is CRUCIAL
hopefully you will have saved money too and when all three of these things come together, go take your awesome credit, years of experience, and down payment to the bank, get a business loan and start your own practice. This is exactly what my owner did and learning from him over the past couple years is the only reason I’m able to even write comments like these.
Put it this way; I literally live right next to the projects even though I make a ton of money lol. Why? Because a house is a fucking humongous liability. Mortgage, taxes, insurance, home repairs, utilities. All that shit adds up. It’s so much fucking money to be throwing at someone for no reason other than to shit, sleep and shower. Plus women are liabilities as well (in that they cost more to maintain than they bring lol) so I PURPOSEFULLY go out of my way to be unattractive cause I’m a huge sucker for ladies. So I pay 500$ a month FLAT for 2 rooms and my own bathroom at this guys house. It’s not a shithole but it’s nothing fancy either. But I filled it with like 200 grand worth of toys lol. My total monthly bills just to exist is 500 rent, let’s say 400 for food, 400 for truck payments (used btw. Never buy new cars. What a joke. I own a 2014 Tacoma that I bought for 20grand with 14 thousand miles on it. It was 40 grand brand new. Eat my ass Toyota.) 400 for gas and 100 for insurance. So 1800$ a month which leaves me like 4-5 times that to play with lol
So TLDR;finish school, live WELL below your means, establish credit, learn business, start your own. You ever hear of a CEO making less than anyone of his employees? lol I could start a business tomorrow called “WPR’s corporate law and brain surgery center” and hire a corporate lawyer and brain surgeon and pay them both 7 figures while I pull 8. And they do the brain surgery and lawyer crap and you just organize it and essentially babysit them because they’re all a bunch of whiny babies who need direction and someone to tell them what and how to do things because they spent 15 years learning how to cut into brains and zero years learning how to deal with peoples brains lol. That’s really all a CEO is is a glorified babysitter and problem solver. I got good at solving problems and that’s another skill that’s long been lost in society. Most people do what’s called “workarounds”. I SOLVE problems. And people recognize that very very quickly.
I am writing a book too about all this btw, I can send it to you when I’m done maybe get your feedback?
My number one rule in life though is simple: never get comfortable. Water gets stinky and stale when it stagnates, and you’re 80% water, so never ever get comfortable. Don’t get your degree and be like “phew I did it! Now I can work and make this amount of money for the rest of my life. Let’s relax”. Nope. It’s only time to buckle down harder now that you’re in the real world. Here’s how this rule has helped me;
I dropped out of college to go be a ski bum in Colorado and it was AWESOME. Could have stayed forever. But I knew I was running out of money and it sucked watching all these trust fund kids and rich people come ski in multimillion dollar houses while I worked 6 days a week to have 1 day off and like 50$ to spend. So I left and came home to finish that degree. Then I got it and got a REAL FUCKIN CUSHY job right out of school. Literally night shift at a 20 bed ER (no hospital) running very simple tests on usually healthy patients. Anything weird we bagged up and sent to the hospital. There were days I read entire books on my shift and didn’t do an ounce of work. Again, could have stayed there forever and collected money and did and learn nothing. So that got boring real quick and I decided to challenge myself with the most difficult practice in licensed in, blood banking. Within 5 months, I was an expert on it meaning I had seen it all. Not only were we a level 2 trauma center, we were a reference lab for all the weird blood bank patients. I saw antibodies that were so rare most doctors don’t even know what they are. That experience was stupid valuable for the travel companies too. That alone increased my pay like 30%. Plus they had all sorts of benefits and 401k matching and shit. Wasn’t worth it. Fucked outta there, things were getting too comfy. Then at my job now, I COULD have sat around and twiddled my thumbs for 4 hrs and gotten paid, but I said “fuck this. It’s too comfy. I’ll get bored” and I went to my CEO and told him I was only working 4 hours a week and needed more responsibility. So now I come in during the days for a couple hours and supervise and solve problems. For example we just bought another practice and I go there sometimes to teach them our ways and we have new software too I’m constantly on the phone with trying to build to our specifications cause I’m the only one with a computer engineer vocabulary (my brother is a programmer). I don’t even consider it work honestly, I love solving problems. It’s so easy to me cause I’ve ALREADY SEEN IT ALL. Most of these people in their 50s have only had a handful of jobs over their lives. I’m 29 and I’ve worked for 15 different companies already lol. I’ve worked in fast food, restaurants, corporations, retail, hospitals, sales, customer service, and delivery.
And if anyone is still reading these; my experiences really opened my eyes up to God too. I’m still iffy on religion but I’m a FIRM believer in God. There’s absolutely no fucking way I’d be anywhere close to where I’m at if these crazy ass opportunities didn’t present themselves at just the right time. If that doctor had come a couple days earlier, I probably wouldn’t had even thought to ask what he wanted. Hell I couldn’t have even been there! It’s a hospital running 24/7, he literally could have come in at any time I wasn’t there and asked someone else. But he asked me. And if he came a couple days later, I’d have fucked off to Montana or some M state. Also I had that job offer as leverage. Also when the CEO asked me what I wanted out of life and I told him I wanted to run a business one day, unlike my last boss who laughed at me, he encouraged me and said he wanted someone like that to help build this practice. And I wouldn’t have wanted anything to do with business had I not worked for them my entire life. I had to necessary skills, experience, and opportunity to do exactly what I wanted and it all came together perfectly even if I spent over a decade being miserable working for a boss I’d never meet. It was all for something and I never gave up. I stumbled and faltered A LOT. But I never gave up. And I’m still not done. Like I said I want to be a millionaire so my next thing is real estate and stocks. I recently bought a 3/3 townhouse that I rent out for double my mortgage and apparently I’m a stock genius cause I made 50% just last week. And 250% since I started lol I just dabble in the less than 10$ stocks and buy them low and eventually they just randomly skyrocket and sell and repeat lol you don’t even have to be smart AT ALL. There’s so much stock info out there it’s fucking unreal. You just need to learn the language. And that’s what I mean by hard work. My 4 hr work week pisses a few of my colleagues off but I watch what they do in “40 hours” and I just laugh. I worked harder in 2 hours at age 14 than they work in 2 weeks. I earned my what I got. I put the work in.
One final story on that note, from Picasso. (My grandma is an artist and was fascinated by the man so I heard this at a young age too)
“One day Picasso was in a coffee shop doodling on a napkin while sipping his coffee. When he was finished with his drink, he got up and tossed the napkin in the trash. A lady sat nearby exclaimed “my goodness! That’s BEAUTIFUL! How could you throw that away? I must have it! How much??” Picasso replied “you can have it for 9 million dollars” to which the lady was stunned “but that only took you 5 minutes!” She exclaimed. “No” Picasso replied. “That took me 50 years” and he poured his coffee onto the napkin in the trash and left
Lol I may have added that last bit but you get the point; I worked very VERY hard early on to make my life easy as fuck now. I gave up the drugs and drunken college parties to deliver pizza to those same parties. I couldn’t afford to eat out so I taught myself to cook better than Gordon Ramsay (i just cooked for our potluck Wednesday and my CEO is considering paying me to cater food now too)
Oh and another tip since were on the subject of skills: if it isn’t surgery, do it yourself. There’s literally a how to video on YouTube for EVERYTHING. There’s absolutely no reason you shouldn’t be changing your own oil, fixing your own toilet, replacing your own floors, or building your own shed. You need to SAVE money on top of making money too. My boss pays me to work on his car now cause I replaced his alternator in 5 minutes before he could even finish his glass of whiskey. I’ve never once used a mechanic for anything and I’ve pocketed well over 20 grand in insurance claims over the years by fixing everything myself.
Ok I’m going to bed now. That’s the last one I promise haha. But you asked! ¯_(ツ)_/¯
My family is Republican, but not Trumpers like me. I drove them crazy talking about Trump the entire Thanksgiving dinner. I couldn’t stop. Anyone else have this problem?
Btw, my mom loved this pic when I showed it to her.
I went to an orphan Thanksgiving. One woman who volunteered for the trump campaign started crying. I told her about this site since she's only read doomer articles. She now has hope. If your reading this susie, welcome! from R.
To you and yours too. 🇺🇸🍻🇺🇸
For most it is a new revolution. Or revelation, depends on if they wanted to believe or not.
We already did friend! Happy Thanksgiving!
Hope all is well with all you pedes
Nothing makes an antisocial introvert want to spend quality time with their family more than telling me I'm not allowed to this year.
My parents are so brainwashed my dad called me and told me I wasn’t allowed home til my mom stepped in and fucked his day up.
My sister’s boyfriend wasn’t allowed home by his liberal mom!! I thought that was so messed up. That’s your son?? 🤷🏼♀️
It is wut it is lol no one loves me so I love myself twice as much and had a lot of free time to dedicate to developing skills and now I make 6 figures and barely work 4 hours a week and I turn 30 next year. Should be a millionaire within a couple years if people keep shunning me at this rate ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Wow, you're the man! Impressive. I always wondered what it was like inside the lab samples were sent to. I think you're set for a great life.
It all boils down to simple economics really; supply and demand. I’ve been working since I was 14 years old.

That’s the hardest part now because I can tell you how to get the degree, but you’re shit outta luck trying to find a hospital to let you do your rotations. The degree is online now but YOU have to go to the hospitals and beg them to let you work for free lol. And they never take students because they’re already understaffed as it is (btw this is florida. I’m not sure about other states but I can’t imagine it being much different since the travel companies were paying so much. Oh and THEY make money too so the hospitals pay them like 200 grand a year to pay you 100 grand a year. It’s absolutely insane and what’s crazy is ANYWHERE there is more than 100 people living, you have a job because you damn doctors are CONSTANTLY ordering tests 😂.
If I were in your shoes (and keep in mind I know fuckall about you except what you’ve told me lol so let me know if anything is wrong and I can try and rethink for ya!) I’d finish what you’re doing if you’ve come this far. What sucks about medical school is you could have been a trash man instead of going to school and would have MADE at least a million dollars by now instead of spent money on tuition and time on not making money.) I remember learning this in grade school; and I think people tend to forget; money isn’t real. At all. It’s made up. Your TIME is your most valuable asset. Every second that goes by, you can NEVER get back. Money comes and goes. I knew there was a process to climbing the workforce ladder and I knew no one was ever going to hand it to me so I HAD to go thru the process with an end goal in mind of wanting to run/manage/own companies. That’s where the money is. Why be a doctor when I can start a business and hire doctors and tell them what to do? Why be a lawyer when I can hire lawyers? Why waste my entire 20s dedicating myself to ONE subject when I could learn just enough about EVERYTHING to manipulate and pay other people who spent their time learning that shit to do it for me. The most successful people on earth didn’t even bother with college, so obviously they aren’t teaching you much of anything worthwhile there IMO.
I think the trick is to KNOW what you want out of life and pursue that ruthlessly. And know when to make sacrifices that will help in your pursuit of that. And have enough foresight to predict one single question “is this sacrifice going to pay off in the end? Will what I’m sacrificing now come back with even greater returns in the end? Because you’re always sacrificing something for another. You sacrificed your 20s, women, time, money, sanity in pursuit of a medical degree. When you get it, from my understanding, your 20s won’t return, your time will still be spent working relentlessly, the money will be good but I have no idea what kind of med school debt you racked up, plus you’ll see huge paycheck numbers and start buying a bunch of shit and big houses cause “I’m a doctor now. Why not” and those bills combined with student loan payments will eat you up. Btw every doctor I know is massively in debt lol one of them is asking me for real estate advice because he’s in his 50s and has zero money set aside for retirement and huge debt. And lastly, they’re all batshit insane lol so I doubt you’ll get that back either.
All that being said, I don’t want to scare you from finishing. You’re still in a position to make MUCH better choices than them. Once you start getting paid, I would take that money and learn how to make it work for you so you can get out of that shit ASAP. but at the same time, LEARN EVERYTHING YOU CAN. One thing I don’t like about doctors is they think they’re above everything. Every single one of them gets pissed if they’re even bothered to change their password or click something more than once. Learn how the practice you work for is run and operated. Learn every single persons job, and why and how they do it. Most importantly go learn about billing and insurance and the laws/regulations that govern healthcare in your state. Learn every single piece of info you can and write it all down. And save your money. Don’t buy a big house or nice cars. Get the cheapest shit you can and dump your paychecks into loan repayments and build your credit as much as possible and your savings account. Then when the time is right; you’ll have several VERY valuable assets;
you will learn how a medical practice is RUN and operated
you will be debt free with a positive bank account and if you pay off your debts and loans ASAP, your credit will skyrocket. This is CRUCIAL
hopefully you will have saved money too and when all three of these things come together, go take your awesome credit, years of experience, and down payment to the bank, get a business loan and start your own practice. This is exactly what my owner did and learning from him over the past couple years is the only reason I’m able to even write comments like these.
Put it this way; I literally live right next to the projects even though I make a ton of money lol. Why? Because a house is a fucking humongous liability. Mortgage, taxes, insurance, home repairs, utilities. All that shit adds up. It’s so much fucking money to be throwing at someone for no reason other than to shit, sleep and shower. Plus women are liabilities as well (in that they cost more to maintain than they bring lol) so I PURPOSEFULLY go out of my way to be unattractive cause I’m a huge sucker for ladies. So I pay 500$ a month FLAT for 2 rooms and my own bathroom at this guys house. It’s not a shithole but it’s nothing fancy either. But I filled it with like 200 grand worth of toys lol. My total monthly bills just to exist is 500 rent, let’s say 400 for food, 400 for truck payments (used btw. Never buy new cars. What a joke. I own a 2014 Tacoma that I bought for 20grand with 14 thousand miles on it. It was 40 grand brand new. Eat my ass Toyota.) 400 for gas and 100 for insurance. So 1800$ a month which leaves me like 4-5 times that to play with lol
So TLDR;finish school, live WELL below your means, establish credit, learn business, start your own. You ever hear of a CEO making less than anyone of his employees? lol I could start a business tomorrow called “WPR’s corporate law and brain surgery center” and hire a corporate lawyer and brain surgeon and pay them both 7 figures while I pull 8. And they do the brain surgery and lawyer crap and you just organize it and essentially babysit them because they’re all a bunch of whiny babies who need direction and someone to tell them what and how to do things because they spent 15 years learning how to cut into brains and zero years learning how to deal with peoples brains lol. That’s really all a CEO is is a glorified babysitter and problem solver. I got good at solving problems and that’s another skill that’s long been lost in society. Most people do what’s called “workarounds”. I SOLVE problems. And people recognize that very very quickly.
I am writing a book too about all this btw, I can send it to you when I’m done maybe get your feedback?
My number one rule in life though is simple: never get comfortable. Water gets stinky and stale when it stagnates, and you’re 80% water, so never ever get comfortable. Don’t get your degree and be like “phew I did it! Now I can work and make this amount of money for the rest of my life. Let’s relax”. Nope. It’s only time to buckle down harder now that you’re in the real world. Here’s how this rule has helped me;
I dropped out of college to go be a ski bum in Colorado and it was AWESOME. Could have stayed forever. But I knew I was running out of money and it sucked watching all these trust fund kids and rich people come ski in multimillion dollar houses while I worked 6 days a week to have 1 day off and like 50$ to spend. So I left and came home to finish that degree. Then I got it and got a REAL FUCKIN CUSHY job right out of school. Literally night shift at a 20 bed ER (no hospital) running very simple tests on usually healthy patients. Anything weird we bagged up and sent to the hospital. There were days I read entire books on my shift and didn’t do an ounce of work. Again, could have stayed there forever and collected money and did and learn nothing. So that got boring real quick and I decided to challenge myself with the most difficult practice in licensed in, blood banking. Within 5 months, I was an expert on it meaning I had seen it all. Not only were we a level 2 trauma center, we were a reference lab for all the weird blood bank patients. I saw antibodies that were so rare most doctors don’t even know what they are. That experience was stupid valuable for the travel companies too. That alone increased my pay like 30%. Plus they had all sorts of benefits and 401k matching and shit. Wasn’t worth it. Fucked outta there, things were getting too comfy. Then at my job now, I COULD have sat around and twiddled my thumbs for 4 hrs and gotten paid, but I said “fuck this. It’s too comfy. I’ll get bored” and I went to my CEO and told him I was only working 4 hours a week and needed more responsibility. So now I come in during the days for a couple hours and supervise and solve problems. For example we just bought another practice and I go there sometimes to teach them our ways and we have new software too I’m constantly on the phone with trying to build to our specifications cause I’m the only one with a computer engineer vocabulary (my brother is a programmer). I don’t even consider it work honestly, I love solving problems. It’s so easy to me cause I’ve ALREADY SEEN IT ALL. Most of these people in their 50s have only had a handful of jobs over their lives. I’m 29 and I’ve worked for 15 different companies already lol. I’ve worked in fast food, restaurants, corporations, retail, hospitals, sales, customer service, and delivery.
And if anyone is still reading these; my experiences really opened my eyes up to God too. I’m still iffy on religion but I’m a FIRM believer in God. There’s absolutely no fucking way I’d be anywhere close to where I’m at if these crazy ass opportunities didn’t present themselves at just the right time. If that doctor had come a couple days earlier, I probably wouldn’t had even thought to ask what he wanted. Hell I couldn’t have even been there! It’s a hospital running 24/7, he literally could have come in at any time I wasn’t there and asked someone else. But he asked me. And if he came a couple days later, I’d have fucked off to Montana or some M state. Also I had that job offer as leverage. Also when the CEO asked me what I wanted out of life and I told him I wanted to run a business one day, unlike my last boss who laughed at me, he encouraged me and said he wanted someone like that to help build this practice. And I wouldn’t have wanted anything to do with business had I not worked for them my entire life. I had to necessary skills, experience, and opportunity to do exactly what I wanted and it all came together perfectly even if I spent over a decade being miserable working for a boss I’d never meet. It was all for something and I never gave up. I stumbled and faltered A LOT. But I never gave up. And I’m still not done. Like I said I want to be a millionaire so my next thing is real estate and stocks. I recently bought a 3/3 townhouse that I rent out for double my mortgage and apparently I’m a stock genius cause I made 50% just last week. And 250% since I started lol I just dabble in the less than 10$ stocks and buy them low and eventually they just randomly skyrocket and sell and repeat lol you don’t even have to be smart AT ALL. There’s so much stock info out there it’s fucking unreal. You just need to learn the language. And that’s what I mean by hard work. My 4 hr work week pisses a few of my colleagues off but I watch what they do in “40 hours” and I just laugh. I worked harder in 2 hours at age 14 than they work in 2 weeks. I earned my what I got. I put the work in.
One final story on that note, from Picasso. (My grandma is an artist and was fascinated by the man so I heard this at a young age too)
“One day Picasso was in a coffee shop doodling on a napkin while sipping his coffee. When he was finished with his drink, he got up and tossed the napkin in the trash. A lady sat nearby exclaimed “my goodness! That’s BEAUTIFUL! How could you throw that away? I must have it! How much??” Picasso replied “you can have it for 9 million dollars” to which the lady was stunned “but that only took you 5 minutes!” She exclaimed. “No” Picasso replied. “That took me 50 years” and he poured his coffee onto the napkin in the trash and left
Lol I may have added that last bit but you get the point; I worked very VERY hard early on to make my life easy as fuck now. I gave up the drugs and drunken college parties to deliver pizza to those same parties. I couldn’t afford to eat out so I taught myself to cook better than Gordon Ramsay (i just cooked for our potluck Wednesday and my CEO is considering paying me to cater food now too)
Oh and another tip since were on the subject of skills: if it isn’t surgery, do it yourself. There’s literally a how to video on YouTube for EVERYTHING. There’s absolutely no reason you shouldn’t be changing your own oil, fixing your own toilet, replacing your own floors, or building your own shed. You need to SAVE money on top of making money too. My boss pays me to work on his car now cause I replaced his alternator in 5 minutes before he could even finish his glass of whiskey. I’ve never once used a mechanic for anything and I’ve pocketed well over 20 grand in insurance claims over the years by fixing everything myself.
Ok I’m going to bed now. That’s the last one I promise haha. But you asked! ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Ds are mentally ill. Mean as snakes, too.
hope you wore a trump hat
I bet my mom 1000$ Trump would win lol
I have a similar bet with a co-worker.
Beautiful!!! Spammed this to all my Thanksgiving family and frens!!!
awesome. spread it far and wide
My family is Republican, but not Trumpers like me. I drove them crazy talking about Trump the entire Thanksgiving dinner. I couldn’t stop. Anyone else have this problem?
Btw, my mom loved this pic when I showed it to her.
Yes! Ditto here. It drives me crazy when Republican family or friends say “well we can win the house in 2022 blah blah blah.”
I reply “are you a f*cking idiot?!? If we let the steal this election we will NEVER be able to stop them again. There won’t be a 2022 or 2024!”
You are right. We will never win another election, and even if we did, they would just steal it like they tried with this one.
Imho the Kraken drop was timed to get people talking about it during Thanksgiving.
Nicely done, Fren.
We love you too!
This is fantastic. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you beautiful Patriots. I love this community!!!
Happy thanksgiving, fam.

I went to an orphan Thanksgiving. One woman who volunteered for the trump campaign started crying. I told her about this site since she's only read doomer articles. She now has hope. If your reading this susie, welcome! from R.

Nothing like spending quality time with your family on the greatest nation on earth!
Rich Donald's Almanac predicts the 2020 election:
"Orange man wins Presidential election"
Happy thanksgiving, and heres to making liberals cry again.
Happy thanksgiving
IDK about you guys and gals but I was VERY thankful to hear from and see President Trump today. The press conference was great.
That said, have a Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Don't give up either because he sure as hell hasn't.
I'd pay $100 for a 'First Thanksgiving Donald' action figure. $150 if it comes with the musket. lol, I LOVE this stuff. Epic!
America first is the ONLY way! Just as the Founders intended.
