Another important good strategy. Take your absolute sweet time meandering through easy classes at your local community college, maybe work part time. Bum rent of your parents if you can as long as you can. Time often is the antidote to lack of discipline or motivation. If you wait longer until you fully commit to school, you'll likely handle better. Getting into a college at 18 and going through a difficult degree is often a huge mistake. It's okay to take a long time, or till you're even like 28 to finish a degree. Seriously, it's overrated to stress over the valedictorian strategy of graduating at 24 with a doctorate or something. Just don't compare yourself with the best, take your time, use your parents (make it up to them later in life). Just be smart and use your twenties to get a meaningful education and strategy for your life. No one is going to read this, but there's a few meaningful great pieces of advice in this thread.

Okay, maybe the engineering degree is too much for people. Understandable, a lot of mathematics. But there are a plethora of 2 year degrees out their that you can get at your local community college that are relatively easy to get and net you about 40 to 80 thousand a year. Just be wise with your money. Perhaps partner up with someone also making decent money to take a little financial pressure off you.

Yikes, sounds like you've had some bad experiences, @Roy A natural part of the dating process is filtering out the unhealthy individuals. That can be messy, but hang in there. @King Merk Are you gay though?

@Majed If you're in the US there's an option where you can put money into your retirement account, a 401K. Your employer will match your contribution up to a certain percent. Put the maximum allowable percentage as it is free money that is tax free when you can pull it out. It is just a wise move that smart fathers tell their children. People often do not do this out of greed. It is long term thinking and people want their money now. @MarkKol Engineering is just one of the most consistent and lucrative degrees you can get today. Great jobs, you're basically guaranteed a six figure income if you have a decent career strategy. Basically, I was just trying to imply to get a degree with high paying jobs in its field. Getting a degree cause you're interested in 'X' is a massively overrated idea. Trust me on that. A job is a job. Engineers jobs are not as hard as you think. If you decide to get a degree in say 'biology' because I like biology you'll find that you're not that extra passionate about the job involved. Jobs are often tedious and repetitive no matter what the field. Just go for the money. Obviously, an engineering degree is difficult to get, that's a consideration too. Ask yourself: 1) Am I smart enough and disciplined enough to get the degree? Their are other options for you if you're not capable enough to get it. I do believe with proper discipline anyone who is average and higher can get a degree like that. Are you a little less academic capable? Their are options. For example, nurses make a ton of money with travel contracts and it's a two year degree.

I want you guys to go watch gladiator and then imagine Russel Crowe's character reading your posts. How do you think he would respond? He'd probably turn off the forum and go lift heavy objects and protect his beautiful family from the coming famine. Because you guys are absolutely fucking useless, my god. To be fair, he'd think I was a bit of a pussy too though.

It's a massive oversimplification, but it never hurts to hear the basics reiterated from someone that knows what's what.

Gay is a great word for happy. Start using it. Europeans are more evolved then us Americans that way at least. @Raze Sorry you feel that way. @NoSelfSelf Do you care to add anything?

What is the greatest wisdom you can communicate? If you had one thing.

If you look hard enough on this forum God will talk to you. Sometimes higher intelligence is expressed through this medium. You just have to be open minded to see it. Not just any one specific person. Anyone on here.

It sounds like you need a form of rehab from society. A lot of people do. Its just a lack of willingness to go through the psychological pain of quitting your habits. Pray to God as hard as you can for the courage to shed your habits. Go talk to the person you love the most, tell them you love them. And then continually make a commitment to be better.

@at_anchor I am reading the post of someone who is incredibly lost. It seems you hate yourself and have a deep paranoia about the intentions of others. Smell a flower, try to see your inner beauty when you look in a mirror. You have a lot of work to do on yourself.

I would recommend doing literally anything but taking Adderall. It would be a mistake.

Shame is a tool to make you feel bad for not being your best self. If you look at porn, feel shame because you are failing.

It's harmful to your ability to be a good romantic partner. It closes your mind to a variety of forms of feminine beauty and causes addiction to sexual thoughts and feelings. I could write a short book on why porn is bad scientifically, psychologically, spiritually, romantically. It makes you sad in the long run. For the love of God stop looking at it forever.

Loans and credit should only be used as a form of investment for your future. This means loans for education, vehicle to get to work/school, and a house, and in case of emergency medical bills. All other forms of credit are inventions by mans satanic nature.

@Tyler Robinson Yes, mam.

No, be yourself for the sake of your happiness. Just be aware of the woman's feelings and be attentive to her needs. Being what the girl wants can be a huge mistake. Girls want to be coddled, that's not always what a woman needs.

Sounds like two immature young people who are extremely horny and insecure.

Well, I'll tell you I watched Ted Cruz almost lose to Beto last time and it was a hell of a close one.

@Danioover9000 Oh wow, that was a pretty epic psychological deconstruction. Yea, I mean I don't mean to emotionally overreact, but I get a little upset when internet debates like this are so hard fought for the battle of a perceived winner than an honest exploration of the ideas. The right wing comment; I was more speaking generally, but yes I believe you could really push the limits of what's possible in terms of going in that direction. I mean, we could say lets just entirely deregulate our economic system and it would devolve into a bunch of feudal lords, with private armies. In modern day it'd translate to billionaires basically determining how your society is ran with vast levels of income inequality.

The furthest right wing position is to go back to slavery. Free labor via the barrel of the gun. The pyramids weren't built by socialists after all. If Russia and Germany teamed up in world war 2, defeated the allies and then dominated the earth's natural resources, then Communism would be the dominant political ideology. Destiny would be arguing how great the Axis countries are. "They're NUMBER ONE in EVERYTHING!" Also, we dominate the global market for resources via military and economic warfare and incentives. Capitalists have a lot of very NATO friendly business arrangements which power the great western capitalist regimes.

Destiny's opening argument: 1) US be number one in many things (said with expediency) 2) Look how terrible the USSR and other horrible "socialist" regimes are, therefore critiques of the US system from the left are invalid (said with expediency) 3) Vague gesturing in the direction of modern successful mixed economic systems of Europe and Japan being complete failures as if nuance doesn't exist and their success can't be measured on a sliding scale (said with Adderall induced expediency this time because the worse his point is the faster he talks) 4) Oh and he acknowledges the need for welfare, because he doesn't want you to think he's a libertarian. I can't watch anymore. He's so stupid it hurts. I need to go do something productive. I just wanted to express my pain every time I see Destiny's name.

Destiny is a professor of manipulating perception to seem right in a verbal exchange. He's not a genuine intellectual at all. No one should ever listen to that idiot. Go read a damn book. Turn off Destiny and block his YouTube channel. He's a proverbial tiny dicked narcissist attention whore. I'll give this a listen.

@Ramu Alright, bud, all we need to do is just dangle a juicy joint on a string over Texas and get some of the Californians to move to Texas and you'll never have to worry about Trump again.
