>4 years turns into 7 years
Can I turn this around? Or is it too late already?
you can easily become a zogbot working for mr shekelberg any time you want
just go flip some burgers
Make plans, set objectives for every day, week, month, year. Be consistent. You can turn this around.
>a failed NEET
So he got a job?
>takes 5.2% of his life as a vacation at the first legal opportunity
>turns into 28%
unironically get some kind of coach or specialized therapy
also
get a big boy job or go to school
So you're only 25? You have plenty of time to learn to code and have sex.
You still have another ten years or so to dwell on it before it's too late.
>Can I turn this around? Or is it too late already?
What does that mean? It's never too late to flip burgers and buy goyslop with paycheck if that's what you're talking about.
Its not too late until you're in your late 30s, then it's too late. Go to community College or some shit
How in the fuck do you end up like that? After 3 months I feel like killing myself if I'm not working just out of sheer boredom
Modern vidya, shows, movies suck and you can go hiking, gym, etc usually takes 1-3 hours anyways and anything that takes a day usually happens on weekends so how do you keep yourself preoccupied for decades + without rotting in front of a screen?
>neet cousin a loser lmao such an example of what not to do in life!!
>takes 1 year off
lol
lmao even
Tbh the first year off went by really quickly, fastest year of my life… which is why I decided to take a few more, I didn’t realise how quickly time goes by as a NEET
I really wanted to start doing something after 4 years but then covid hit and then everything was basically locked down or required vaccination, and I’m not vaccinated
you need motivation
is there anything you like except shitposting?
what do you want anyway? "I want to get better" is not it.
I wouldn't have had the balls to take a sabbatical year. I was rightfully instructed to not be a leech by my parents.
Once you finish high school, you immediately get into college, graduate, then start your career and focus on progressing and making money so you can live at ease later on.
Shameful as fuck that you even thought of throwing a year away, let alone 7, and actually had the nerve of being a useless person for that long.
You fucked up your resume forever. I wouldn't ever hire someone like you, not even for the most basic of jobs.
Your only shot is to stop using the pandemic as an excuse and get yourself self-employed. You must urgently learn a valuable skill (try programming), then create a website, advertise yourself on Google, offer cheaper prices than your settled competitors.
Do it now you moron, you are late to the party.
This is all nonsense, he should just get a job at starbucks or wherever and save up his money. There is no need to try and compete with white collar wage cucks who have been slaving away since birth if he's lazy and thrifty.
Don't worry m8. Shame doesn't exist.
>>Can I turn this around? Or is it too late already?
Go do work that doesn't require vaxx, work hard but don't be that afraid of failure so no one can manipulate you with the threat of being fired. Don't get too comfortable with one job, don't stress when you need to change scenes. Once you force yourself to get started, you won't want to stop. Just get the fuck up and go work, fuck it just make money any way you can, but always be moving, always be working on something. Don't sit pouring goyslop into your eyes through a screen.
I'm in the same boat as you, 6 years out from high school. I just applied to a bunch of colleges, you can turn it around.
Stop lying to him. You know it is over.
this is the best advice i've ever seen, but i would augment it: don't seek money, seek worth. money will come, as much as you need for the worthy things in your life. making money the focus invites other distractions, and sooner or later your are caught up in the rat race. don't play the game everyone is suckered into, play your own game. invite friends, make som, even.
Do you even want to work? I've been trying to get myself out of NEETdom myself, but only because my parents want me to and I depend on them. If it's still viable for you to be a NEET, just keep on doing that.
Sports, anime, manga, shitposting, and some vidya and books on the side for me.
Seethe more, cuck. If he had fun, then he spent his time correctly.
>You fucked up your resume forever.
He can very easily lie about having experience.
If it’s anything like Norway, become an electrician. They all seem to make good money, and have work they like. You don’t need to join the white collar rat race to get good work.
>How in the fuck do you end up like that? After 3 months I feel like killing myself if I'm not working just out of sheer boredom
For me I feel more bored working than not working. I just always hated work more than staring at a screen. I just work jobs that I can raise money for food and then quit.
>he doesn't know about genetic determinism
Just find a job as janitor or security guard. Comfy jobs if you ask me
norwegian neet here, but i have finished videregående computer and electronics
both carpenter and electricia is 1 year of school for me
idk what to pick
>being able to be a neet
its good I haven't got such an option, so I am a mentally ill drug addict at 24.
But I make good money!
Do you at least help around the house? Also it’s never to late to turn it around
I guess suicidal thoughts are still better than having to work.
>security guard
Comfy, but dull 99.9% of the time and dangerous 0.1% of the time. Almost got knifed two weeks ago but the bastard's friend luckily pulled him back and they ran off.
Go to trade school
Become an electrician
Earn endless money
Stop whining
should i become an electrician or carpenter?
