Not OP but Ive been working as an actuary for about 10 years, I got a 60k signing bonus for the last job I took.

60k just to say I would work there, doesnt even consider my salary which is also substantial.

Maybe you are confused with what a real job is.

Insurance industry was virtually unaffected even in the 2009 financial recession.

For the last 20 years at least the unemployment rate of actuaries has been ZERO percent.

If you work for yourself you won't have ANYTHING in the back before 30, you would have much more working for other people. Around 30 your business could be profitable enough to kick back a bit.

You can own your own business. Or work for someone else. If you think sitting on the internet all day is the only way, yeah, you're going to hate being 30... or life in general I guess

Life is good. Early on I was worried about money, then I learned there are more important things than money. Quit the job I hated, now make way less, but I'm way happier. Have everything I need and can generally get whatever I decide I want.

It depends on your circumstances, if you have a family and job you love or even some money aside, you can do literally anything you want.

But, if you're a faggy family abandoned basement dweller with nothing going for you, not much unless you do it for yourself.

Everything? if you've made it to 30's and have successfully fucked yourself over, keep fucking up, let life do its thing.

Worst case scenario, you die from your stupidity, best outcome? you make it through the hell you've created, or suffer through it until you're inevitable end.

But if you're going to kill yourself, you might as well, your weakness will get you nowhere, sympathy for suicide victims is ridiculous, the fact that you're so weak that you can not tough it out and see what else happens, just to hurt everyone else is cowardly.

This is also coming from someone suffering with generalized anxiety disorder, and manic depression.

>>686339669
yes, yes it does. i walk with a limp normally, but if i'm forced to walk by about half a mile in i'm in so much pain i can barely stand. not to mention the fact that if i am ever within 100 feet of a lit cigarette, or similar tobacco product, i'll be unable to breath within minutes. literally every single time i've been around smokers, i've been hospitalized. there are other problems, but my primary concerns have been
>lack of access to emergency care. if my throat starts to close, i either have to get to a hospital immediately or risk dying. i've blacked out due to lack of air more than once while en route to the hospital
>many parts of europe have walking and biking as a primary form of transit within the city/town you're in, which will either put me in shitloads of pain or fuck with my asthma. with public transit, it's damn near impossible to avoid smoke so that's not an option
>i can't go to india, or literally any other place with high levels of smog or polluted air. pretty obvious why
so even if i had the money to travel, i'd be pretty much only able to go on shitty cruises, or take in the sights from the hotel/car/bus/helicopter.
>but i singlehandedly put my family in debt with my patheticly crippled ass, and borrowing from a bank or getting life insurance would be damn near impossible considering my age and health problems. we were kicked off our insurance plans several times, with different companies, and outright rejected by others and it's 100% my fault

Free will doesn't exist. It takes being enlightened enough to know this, though. If you're ignorant, then everything will seem random and unpredictable. If you're enlightened, then everything seems mathematically precise, predictable, recursive, cyclical, etc..

Well, for starters I get to wear a fedora in a non-ironic way and look good in it. And while getting old kind of sucks as your body falls apart, I'm smarter than I've ever been. I estimate that I've read about 12,000 books in my life, and I'm finally starting to make the connections between a lot of the disparate bits of knowledge I've collected to create entirely new ideas.

As a writer on the verge of 50, I'm about to enter my most productive and creative years. There aren't many successful young writers simply because it takes so many years to gain the life experience and years of writing practice necessary to master the craft and produce something worth reading.

Honestly, if someone offered to de-age me, I'm not sure I'd accept. Especially seeing the way /b/ has devolved into a pit of low-IQ reactionary garbage as the average age has dropped, I am beginning to understand why people hold the young in such utter contempt: they're idiots.

Seriously, why does everyone get so up in arms when you even mention the word "fedora"?

I've been rocking a fedora lately and have gotten more second looks than I ever have before in my life.

When I put it on it ages me a little bit, but at the same time makes me look more "timeless", and lets people know that I have no love for common trends. I do my own thing.

What's wrong with that?

Physically, yes, it's all downhill past 40. Everything goes to shit.

On the plus side, you don't worry as much about some things, and it gives you time to re-discover religion and the true meaning of life. If I'd died early in life I'd have gone to hell.

From what I know, and have "experienced" to a degree. It does take balls to hang yourself like that dude did in the gif. Fighting the intrinsic will to survive is very difficult.

In any case. It is anyone's choice to live or die.
For "whatever reason" suicide rates are the highest they have ever been in awhile. Above auto accidents. Crossing all demographics, incomes, genders. I do know that "life" will not "magically" get better. Even if you do "all the right things". Define what "better" and "happiness" means to you. Unfortunately, in this political environment we are currently in, I see "things" getting worse. It doesn't matter who is elected. Try to enjoy things before they get real bad.
>>
>>686331967
I really want to get old and see the future. I'm just curious what's going to happen. If everything goes to shit, I'll get to watch it happen and bitch about how "times was different back in the old days" or if everything goes well I can bitch about how "Back in my days, things was harder".
Basically I want to get old so I can bitch about how the world changed.
