View Full Version : I have less than absolutely nothing, what do I do?

There is a thread asking what you would do if you had absolutely nothing. Unfortunately I have more and less than nothing at the same time. Right now I am about to start another semester at a community college that I hate. I have several minor misdemeanors on my record which have resulted in a lack of full driving "privileges" for about 6 more months. My car is totaled and because I go to school for 18-19 credit hours a week it is unrealistic for me to have a job, so I really don't have money.

The thing is I hate where I am and my life here but I don't know how to get out of it without living like a bum for the next decade. I can't get a degree at my college because I'm going for psych. and it's only a transfer program so even if I finish I will not be able to earn more, and when I do finish the transfer I will NOT be able to afford going to a 4 year college. I used to work at a factory which paid decent but it was the shittiest work, extremely bad for health. But I also have worked retail, which was pleasant but would be really, really hard to scrape a living off of. I wouldn't really make headway with retail and factory sorts of jobs require years of work before people are promoted to where they have some financial freedom, which isn't something I want to do for a type of work I don't enjoy.

Can people in my sort of situation live free? I just don't see how I could survive even if I took a "bad ideas" sort of route, which I would love to do for the excitement and fun. I have been working out/running really hard for the last 6 or more months (and am in good shape) because I fantasize about living as an outlaw. If I don't make it though, I starve, and my family, who I live with to go to school, would never help me out again if I failed out of this sort of lifestyle. But with each semester my debt grows. I have about one or two weeks to see if I have the balls to walk out and live my dream life, but I probably don't.

What would you do?

Coming from a college grad , from a shithole town, came from next to nothing, who paid his own way through college with jobs/loans/etc, get the FUCK off of this site and get on something more constructive like a JOB HUNT or a site that will actually help better your life, or at least give you SOME glimmer of hope. You've got to be a fucking idiot coming here for information like that. Hell, get the fuck out of the house and try to do some networking. You think everyone of these people is the most successful in life? So, you come here for advice? Yeah, drug, scam, and alternative thinking forum...Good choice. God damn, you're stupid!

PS. Lose your half your family in a car accident, then come to me about having absolutely nothing you fucking immature prick.

The summer is coming up stick it out for 3 months then get a job and a hustle over summer you can net like 10k. Then from there just go to school keep hustling save up some cash. You can get a loan banks just hand them out. You just can't dick around when you get out and have to pay the loan off quick. Live off your cash in college your last 2 years youll be like 40k in debt max which isn't too bad because you'll get a job making much more than that. Live cheap for 5 years pay it all off by then you'll be making even more and you'll be like 27 and pretty rich.

I guess people think that's a boring life now but I don't know it sure as shit beats living almost anywhere else.

THAT^ I financed nearly half of my college through FEDERAL loans. The other half I financed by using my fucking brain and hustling. Loans are easy to get if you're a full-time student, no matter family income. They give you a long ass time to pay them back if you need it with flexible monthly payments. Hell, if you're poor, or youre parents don't claim you on their tax returns, you can apply for GRANTS (don't have to be paid back).

The problem with getting a degree is that there are all these online schools and trade schools handing them out, so they really don't say much. There are a lot of kids coming out of college finding this out the hard way and getting stuck with a low paying job.

I understand what you're saying BUT, when they weed out the bullshit and start looking at details, do you think they will jump to hire someone with a fucking degree from "DeVry online college" or a fucking BA from The University of Alabama. And just about the only people I know that don't have jobs right now, a year out of college, never really had the drive to get one to begin with.

But with the economy bound to stay in the shitter(most likely for a long long time), if you're not going for the right degree and you don't keep your grades up, along with keeping a clean record and having a passion and all that shit, a degree wont really pay off. From the sounds of it, yours might not pay off...

Who's paying for your college?

IDK, this isn't really a great way to look at college. I mean, yes, an education normally makes you more money over your career, but you shouldn't really decide how to live your life based on financial gain. I know tons of people who go to college because they were born in a middle class family, and that's what expected of them, not because they have any love for their field of study. If you wouldn't go to college for no credit you shouldn't go to college at all if you ask me.

Thanks SBTlauie, you little shitstain of life! I, as a matter of fact, graduated from The University of Alabama May '10 with a BA from the School of Business and Commerce Administration w/ an additional 15-hr sales specialization, on top of a Computer Science minor. Anyway, I'm doing just fine. It took me about 3 months to find a GREAT job out of college with a General Contractor. Is that what I LOVE to do? Is that related to what my DEGREE was in school? FUCK no, I'm on a construction site all day looking after smelly mexicans, BUT it's a fucking job with a fairly decent steady paycheck. I drank, did drugs, among God knows what else during college, didn't give a shit about being that "good" student with good grades and shit...You just have to give a little bit of a shit about yourself! Get your damn self-esteem out of the gutter and go out and fuck a girl tonight or something. As for morals, Gor, no one said anything pertaining to "right or wrong conduct". I stated facts that you provided and assessed a situation. Stay in school :)

Arcade, he's referring to 18-19 semester credit hours. Not the actual time he devotes to his class/classwork. I was a shithead in school and still spent an extra 10-20 or so hours a week completing case studies, homework, among other group assignments, etc.

People aren't the same, you might love to be in a situation I don't. Some people would love to do the college, 9-5 life and all that, but I'm not happy with it. It's not that I want something more, it's that I want something different.

I might be ungrateful, but I can live with that. I cannot, or will not, however, live an unhappy life. I enjoyed various crimes that I have done in the past (note I have been prosecuted so I'm not admitting to stuff I didn't do mods). Okay maybe I'm not very good at it but whatever.

When people don't have very much stuff, and are dirt poor, I always hear people quote stuff like "it's the feeling that counts" or whatever. Well I'm not really poverty type of poor, but I don't have shit for feelings. I don't want to be ungrateful and feel I might have put too much of myself out here too early. It's just really easy to do behind the mask of the internet in a place like this.

I would do what I do now, which is follow the advice of Jesus--"seek first the kingdom of heaven--all else will be added to you."

In other words, look to your spiritual life and your physical life will take care of itself. At least, this is my experience.

Be advised you already have everything you need. Nothing outside of yourself will save you; nothing outside of yourself can harm you.

Haha yes. I believe in and have been practicing seriously magic for a while now. I actually follow the Golden Dawn style of occultism when I can. I have a pretty big shelf full of great occult/magic books on a shelf in front of me right now actually. My avatar is the god Hades, who in astrology represents the planet Pluto, one of the most prominent planets in my chart.

Apart from Golden Dawn Hermeticism I study Christianity also. I'm familiar but vague on most other religions.

Honestly, they would probably weed out anyone with a BA in general. BS or BSc in Mathematics, technology, engineering, chem, physics are the only undergrad degrees that pay (unless you already have connections). I'd much rather have a networking degree from No Name Community college then a Political Science degree from Northeastern or some other fartsy "research university". To be honest I got my BSc from a "research university" while in active heroin addiction for almost the entire time. College is easy. I landed a nice job right out of school making 48k. Not much, and I work with people who do the same job, make the same money, and went to a 2 year community college (and they are better at the job then me).

Basically what I'm saying is learn a fucking skill or a trade. Learn something concrete. You don't really learn to do shit with a political science, communication, english, psych, etc degree. And don't give me the "o you learn how to learn", yea true same with a Bachelors of Science except I can actually produce something that people need.

That is so true. People going into college basically should be told that straight away. Something like: "oh you can follow your passion but these passions don't pay and those do".

It's a transfer program. My degree would be from a 4 year college. Most 4 years in my state would accept the classes when I finished at their place.

A334j2df, not really sure why you quoted my entire post on yours. Few of your points are really relevant to the point I was making. I Never said anything about bullshit majors like "political science" or psychology majors. Mad respect for even having a job in this economy, especially one that pays worth a fuck like you have. People have to do what they have to do to get by. But as for you belittling my degree from the 31st ranked public university in the nation, yeah man, you're right, no one looks at that shit. GTFO of here. Any educated employer of any corporation will DEFINITELY take note of the school from which your degree was obtained! Anyway, yall keep performing your skilled trades and I'm going to keep managing the people that are laboring away. Put of all the majors you listed, not one was business related. Who the fuck do you expect to lead, manage, and analyze all the aspects of corporate America? Some scientist or engineer with no clue about how the business world works that couldn't have a conversation with someone unless they're another scientist? Or a fucking Management major that's an organizational guru with stellar people skills? I'll take the latter. G'day!

My point is this: You seem to take pride in the fact you don't do the sweaty part of the job, while you manage those that do. Fine. But I have a hinkering you've got a bit of an ego going on about that fact. Lame. Take pride in your salary.

UT, I simply defended the argument that it CAN make a difference where said degree was obtained from. I know this for a fact from speaking with many recruiters and former recruiters of Fortune 500 companies. As for me personally, I do take pride in what I earn, but I NEVER stated my salary, as others did here. I also take pride in what I have chosen to do, as everyone should. I do a hell of a good job at it. Those aren't my words. They are those of my superiors, as well as those who have worked with or for me. As for being egotistical, I am in no way on an ego trip about being in a management position. Tons of people are in management positions in the world. Whether it be at Microsoft or McDonald's, I can nearly guarantee you they worked their ass of for that position. Shit just isn't handed to you in life. Alot of people here don't believe that and just choose to take what isn't handed to them. I worked my ass off and sat through 5 years of boring ass college shit to get to where I'm at today. And since you're talking shit, the title is technically "Project Manager". Google it. Thanks!

There is no reason to position yourself in any way on a forum for appearances. It's a forum, we're all just a username behind an IP here so why would I be concerned with my appearance? Nor am I trying to reach out to you. As we have all seen, that is pointless. I am simply annoyed by your immaturity and neglect to actually listen to some of the only decent advice in this thread. Stop pitying around about this and that and get out and start hustling. No matter what you do, remember that word: HUSTLE.

Yeah, while "less than nothing" might be a bit of a stretch, there's no need to suck dick in gratitude because you have what most other Americans do and are stuck in a shitty situation. The dude has every right to be pissed off that he doesn't have a feasible path to a degree, it's a fucked situation. This thread wasn't a pitty thread, OP tried to ask questions most people ignored or responded to with "get a job, herp derp". So the guy exaggerated a bit, big fucking deal, stop making post after post about how ungrateful OP is.

No dick slinging contest man. I think you took a lot of my comments out of context. And as for having a feasible path to a college degree, maybe not 20 years ago man, but just about ANY student that graduates HS or gets a GED is eligible for federal students loans and/or grants to fund their college education. I had next to shit when I was that age as well, but I knew what I had to do to make life better, and had the drive to take the steps to do so.

PS. Who was sucking dick with gratitude?

OP, make crime at least a secondary choice in life. Finish your schooling and go from there.

PS. Lose your half your family in a car accident, then come to me about having absolutely nothing you fucking immature prick.

Some of us have lost more than half. Waking up every day and having to face reality is hell in itself, and I await the day I get to roast in hell with much anticipation.

Then why the fuck are you in college for fucking psych? Did you just pick it because its easy? What the fuck are you going to do with a 2 year psych degree? I have Bachelors in Chem and its hard to find work, you're just fucking yourself. Also i worked full time when i was in school, stop making excuses and accomplish something. You want to go run away and live in the woods? do it. You want to go be an outlaw? Do it. Nothing is stopping you. Worst that can happen is you get killed. big fucking deal.

So my advice is to stop going to college because 2 years of psychology at a community college just says to prospective employers "I had nothing better to do for two years."

I have several minor misdemeanors on my record which have resulted in a lack of full driving "privileges" for about 6 more months. My car is totaled

I am absolutely positive that those who made the forced march of the trail of tears, the jews who made the exodus out of egypt, and several refugees in war-torn parts of africa are positively weeping for you now.

Can people in my sort of situation live free? I just don't see how I could survive

Dandelions are edible, you poor baby.

So are most birds.

my family, who I live with to go to school

So, we don't need to teach you to make a lean-to - one of those things you "can't see how" you could do??

Awww...

What would you do?

Build raft, find river, go live as pirates.

Seriously - you live in your parent's house and ask "can people in my situation live free." WTF??!? W.... T... F'ing... F?!?!?!

At this very moment, Greyfox is humping his way - possibly literally, depending on the mood of the elk population of the area - across hundreds of miles in the frozen winter of north alaska, eating only dead, frozen grubs he can pull out of dead wood and the wretched lichen which has not yet succumbed to the bitter cold, just to make it to the public libraries of the southland so he can moderate zoklet. And you're asking if you can "survive" in your parent's house??

Yes. You will probably "survive" in your parent's basement. If mommy forgets to bring you supper, just eat the rats, cockroaches, and spiders. You'll make it, princess.

If you're really that worried about mommy shutting off the heating to the basement to save money - learn fiberwork; twisting & spinning, macrame, crochet, and the like. Then you can make clothing, shelter, and a sling for hunting out of dead grass. Suddenly, mommy's basement will become a lot warmer. Remember to store the dead animals in the backyard, rather than in your room, so winter will keep them fresh longer.

God. Damn.

I would do what I do now, which is follow the advice of Jesus--"seek first the kingdom of heaven--all else will be added to you."

In other words, look to your spiritual life and your physical life will take care of itself. At least, this is my experience.

You're old as fuck, you live in a cabin, you have various health issues and your wife is dying and you consume lots of mind altering drugs and spend your time chatting with teenagers on an online forum via public library. Your experience shows the exact opposite of what you claim.


Be advised you already have everything you need. Nothing outside of yourself will save you; nothing outside of yourself can harm you.

Yeaahh, bro... Just take drugs and meditate and ignore everything.

Go through college, get over the fact that its boring. If you want you can do what ever the fuck you want, just don't let it mess with school. School is important, no matter what anyone says. Try to get a degree that means something, science and math you will definatly need. I guess i am with you, just not on the college level yet. I have dreams of criminal activity that keep me... not bored? Good luck, this is my advice, don't care if you use it or not.

Finish school, get your degree, and once(if) you can find a job and realize that the people you work with have absolutely no education and get paid more than you, then turn to crime.

Grow weed.

Purchase productive seeds from spain/holland like the K13 or White Widow x Big Bud and plant.

In a garden or guerilla they can EASILY achieve 500 gr per plant (generally accepted a minimum of 250 if the season's especially bad).

Plant like 10, make around 4 kilos.

Even at the lowest of the lowest price you'll still make well over an average job if you split the money "by month". Combine that with the money you'll get from welfare/unemployment/whatever rips the gov' off and you've got yourself the salary of a senior corporate executive just for watching plants grow.

I'd say it's a good deal.

Now you're in college with active loans so don't fuck that shit up like I did. I now have to repay 7g with fuck all to show for it and no way to go back to school without paying for it myself or repaying my loans to get new loans. Now my health is starting to decline and my normal subcontracting bit is becoming unbearable. I'm 22 years old and I'm afraid I may have to get disability before I'm 30 if I get any worse.

I can start stacking shit up but I'm basically useless and probably wouldn't be alive right now if it weren't for my mother helping my stupid ass out. I was bound up and felt trapped in school with slowly mounting debt so I snapped even though the course work was easy even though I was smoking before and after class, doing pills and whippets in class, and just being a reckless hedonistic asshole hellbent on destroying my own life even after fighting for it and facing m,y death so many times in so many different ways.

Don't make your shit any worse off than it is even if it feels like it can't get worse, it can and will if you fuck up.

You've but one life to live, so live it on your terms. Many people are living miserable lives, doing miserable work, and have nothing to give but complaints and negativity. Is this living?

Gor, you list off a number of things you can't/don't want to/won't do...but what is it you do want? Focus on what you can do, capitalize on your strengths and desires, and be the captain of your fate.

But in whatever endeavors you partake, be smart about it. Know not only your plans of actions, along with secondary backup plans, but also be fully aware of the consequences and possible outcomes of your actions: expect the best, but prepare for the worst. And having weighed all options and courses of action, make your move boldly and without pause, knowing that this is your life to live as you so please.
