Hello world,
If there is one thing more important than introducing myself, it is to thank the man who has completely changed my life, a.k.a. @dollarvigilante. Started out a brainwashed idiot, thinking that college was good and pursued higher level education at all costs (literally!), never thinking about a lifetime of debt slavery or that one day there wouldn't be jobs or that our currency wouldn't be worth anything.
Listen to how crazy this shit is. First of all, I just dropped out of professional school. I was about a year away from a $100,000 starting salary, and I dropped out. Half a million dollars in student loan debt, and I dropped the fuck out. Now, if Mr. Berwick knew my personal, individual situation I am sure he would not approve of such a measure, but let me tell you why I did it anyway.
Firstly, the global financial meltdown is at our doorstep. Therefore I seek to take advantage of that in any way possible, which means I need to use any money I get my hands on to parlay that into gainz. Only veteran @dollarvigilante subscribers will know what I mean, but I missed the put option play last year by only a few weeks and missed out on hundreds of thousands of federal reserve notes in gainz. No problem, on to the next genius idea.
Secondly, I don't want to live in the United Stage anymore. Sure, I could have made literally 6 figures, but what is that after taxes, cost of living, student loan payments, etc? I finally did the math. It ain't shit. So I moved to another country. Anyone ahead of the curve has at least considered doing the same. The six figure salary is a grand illusion. It is absolutely unbelievable how much of our own money is stolen from us every year. I am saving almost as much money as I would be able to if I was making 100k in the US.
Thirdly, because I want a chance at earning what little silver I can afford. In other words, I would rather work to save 500 ounces of silver this year than to not work and go into $40,000 more debt, because I believe that the moves that can be made with that seed will outweigh a "lifetime 6 figure salary". And that even if it didn't, that money is much more important to have now, than at any other time, especially 10+ years from now, when it won't be worth anything.
Lastly, so that I can dedicate as much time as possible to learning about blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and associated technologies. These things will be the new 'internet' and I would not be here if it wasn't for the man, the myth, the legend.
Interesting story. I hope it works out for you. Just curious but what country did you end up moving to?

Great points here. The facts are that divorce and student loans have REKT men.

The fact is in today's society, it is hard to be a man.
Television is a vagina with rabbit ears
HR departments are feminist departments
Libertarian men are under attack in this country
Medium (.com) is a haven for women to complain about men
Silicon Valley has become "vaginized"
It is OK to be a man. That doesn't mean we don't support you ladies. It means we want you to have equality too! Make your own money, have your own apartment, and don't get the government involved with your personal life!
