@JDB School is pretty good to get the basics down. Once you get to a higher level it slows you down due to bureaucracy and useless work. That's why I dislike academic settings. There's too much wasting of time going on which can be used in better ways.

Besides that, you don't earn a lot of money doing that. If you work at a startup you'd be doing the exact same thing, but iterate faster, get better feedback and get real rewards from your work.

do you recommend i go to school or look for a permanent job at a startup?

@JDB I cannot tell you what to do in that regard. The choice is up to you. Just know yourself and know what gets you closer to your goal.

all i need is 20,000 to support myself and save a lot

the startup root is favoured, but more risky

@JDB Since you're mgtow you don't have the fear of loss that most men struggle with. Without a family counting on you, you are now free to pursue things and fail.

Worse case, you fail to find a job and work a shitty job until you go back to school or find a job.

Hmm..

Now that I think about it. MGTOW helps you climb Maslows Hierarchy of needs more easily because there's nothing weighing you down

YUP

yeah exactly

MGTOW is life on easy mode in many ways.

You could work as a janitor and survive while programming/learning on the side.

It's how you play it and your personality. If you enjoy school then do it.

Lol

Dis dude watched my interview with hermit

idk working as a janitor tbh

idm

Shadow the janitor gay ahri cat amateur cider

@shadowlessnexus Who?

*coder

Oh

Now I see, the janitor thing

only reason i was going to school was to buy me time so i can train

Do not be a janitor though. Society is so judgemental it's insane..

i could just train myself, assuming i have steady income

So?

If I were to buy that Tesla I testdrove today, I would suddenly be highly valuable and attractive to people. That just shows how fickle it all is

What does society's approval get you?

i can rent out for a year + and not need to work

A women? Pfft

but roko, if i live in my room all day and dont leave, idc about anyone else's opinion

@shadowlessnexus That's the thing. We cannot easily turn this internal validation drive off. It physically hurts us because in past times we would DIE when society has a negative opinion of us. Our society is outgrowing our bodies. Adapting is hard, but not impossible

i have it off

shadow too

idk why it's hard for you

@JDB I know you can do it, but you will limit your development that way. You'd be a shell of what you could be, but a succesful one. You will wake up one day regretting not having more fun while you were young

u have so much cash, that u can legit just do whatever u want for 5+ years
