In my opinion the HS>UNI>JOB pipeline is something to avoid

my brother did very well in highschool and went to a very good university for a chemical engineering degree. basically the most rigorous shit you can do and hes having trouble getting and INTERNSHIP let alone a job. He ended up having to apply to a masters in chemical engineering for another 2 years of torture just to get a job.

so what do you get from a stem degree?

lets say you got super lucky, a high paying job. low 6 figures. 150k MAYBE 250k if you have exceptional grades, accomplishments, a wide network and incredible social skills

do you really want to dedicate your life to getting up in the morning with an alarm to go to a job you dont like for 10 hours then coming back home at night eating dinner alone and sleeping, and for what? money.

nice, now youre gonna slave away until youre 60 (if you want decide to retire early)

so think about what you could spend the money on

A decent house, not a super fancy one cause only business owners that make millions a year get those
A decent car, not a super fancy one cause only business owners that make millions a year get those

uhh what else maybe decent clothes, a watch and send you son to school to a cuck school that puts you in the same terrible path you lived through just to repeat the cycle of slavery?


Guess what I dont know how to escape this however I know that I would rather do anything other than go down this path of
highschool > uni > internship > job > retirement > death

I believe that if you have the will power to study for multiple hours a day for 10 years (4 years of highschool, 4 years of bachelor and 2 years of a master) you have the ability to put that effort into a couple grand a month by selling a product that people want.

I dont mean for this to be some bullshit escape the matrix type of thing but realistically if you divided that 10 years of school into 1 year of attempting to make money "online" im sure theres better paths to money then the one I layed out above

if all goes to shit id rather be homeless living a natural life sleeping in the forest

The traditional HS > UNI > JOB path is restrictive, but it's a proven route to financial stability and risk mitigation. STEM degrees have highest lifetime earnings and lowest unemployment rates. It might not make you ultra-rich, it significantly reduces the risk of poverty and is reliable way to build a secure life especially if entrepreneurship fails which it does for most people.

You're right that the same work ethic could be applied to building a business or making money online, but that path is far riskier and I feel is glamorized. Success rates are low, and most online ventures take years of trial, error, and luck. For many, the traditional path isn't about chasing wealth it's about ensuring a baseline of comfort, stability, and freedom to explore other things after securing that foundation. Even still a degree helps a lot a and most people get wealthy with slow deliberate long term investments not suddenly becoming millionaires because of some business or crypto. Thr world doesnt work like rhe wolf of wall street unfortunately.

I feel you man. I wish my parents supported me in making money independently instead they fell in the trap of "just go to uni!!". It would be a great resource however either way i think ill be able make money alone.

Im going to attempt trading with a friend over summer break who has made a lot of money before so i think i may be able to make some progress. As soon as i have 6 digits in my bank account I will be put it into risk free trades and live off of the 10% roi it makes.

I don’t really blame them bro since they want you to be financially stable before they die .

I think that placing 10 hours of work every weekday for 10 years straight (the traditional school+uni curriculum length and work hours including studying) 100% guarantees success in any venture of life. If you have spent 26,000 hours attempting to sell a product it should be absolutly impossible for you to not succeed. The risk is too little unless you are braindead

the reason entrepreneurship is risky is cause people give up cause there is no one holding you accountible however school and uni are set programs where you need to pay to get in, forcing you to stay inside.

+1 this the path of making your own businesses, entrepreneurship is way more grindy than the traditional

some of those people are working like 15 hours daily on their company and eating quick pasta only for like 5 years before they actually make good money
We like to see how easy it is for the top 1% in this category we don't see the rest who are miserably grinding their literally whole life for their business

In business, success isn’t just about how hard you work it also depends on timing,market demand, competition, and execution. Plenty of people work 10+ hours a day tht still fail not bcause they’re lazy, but because effort alone doesn’t guarantee product-market fit or consistent revenue. You could spend 5 years trying to sell fax machines or NFTs the market decides value, not your work ethic.

The traditional school to-job path isn’t perfect, but it provides structure, accountability, and financial stability things most entrepreneurs struggle with early on. It’s not about being forced to stay inside imo it’s about building a strong foundation snd having the finances to keep the option open to take risks later. Entrepreneurship is a valid path but it’s not low-risk and it’s not easier than a job just because there’s no boss.

the internet has made access to customers very easy im sure you should be able to make a few hundred profit from 10-20 people per month.

Most rich people are not flashy entrepreneurs or social media stars they are actually oldcel wageslaves in senior or specialized positions in their respective fields with a diverse portfolio of long term investment in stocks, mutual funds, retirement accounts, real estate-and. Their wealth is usually the result of patience, financial literacy,tax-advantaged accounts and long-term planning .This is how 99% of people get rich.

getting customers ain't that easy
there are bunch of online shopping sites for example
but I NEVER use anything other than amazon unless they are giving some crazy discount and then again, i will never buy from that little website again.

People don't want to change what they already have

theres a rule for entrepreneurship, do it only if you want to do it, if you think its gonna be a path to big money you will be horribly disappointed.

in businesses like 1 in 10 businesses stay after like 5 years
that number is reduced to around 1 in 10 again after another 5 years

yes I +1 this, and this what I am planning to do myself
I don't have to worry about getting into relationships since I am a hopeless sub5 so all my I will be investing early on, nobody gonna take care of me when I become an oldcel if I am broke.

Even lower than that .According to the U.S. Small Business Administration:

-20% of new businesses fail within 1 year.

- 50% fail within 5 years.

-70%+ fail within 10 years

-Only ~9% of all U.S. businesses ever reach $1 million+ in annual revenue. Let alone profit.

- If you're a solo entrepreneur (no employees), the chances drop to 0.1%.

@shredded4summer I agree with him. I don't have any desires. I want to survive and need stable job. I want a Work from home job as I learnt the disadvantage of living in 1 place for whole life. It sucks being location dependent. But If I try i may get good uni nearby. But the thing is I have to sacrifice youth for 4 years. After that I might not get good girl.
But If I don't do , i might get good girl. Where I live degeneratcy is less but most people have gf bf like. Standards are not much. But have to do average job.

My parents want me to be a doctor, talk with people,socialise as I rot alone. They don't want me to do enginnering as it's mostly being autistic like, silent. They want me to be social. If I do med, i will learn to talk. Also they know I am good in theory. So thinks I will get to med school anyhow if I try. But I Have to sacrifice 10 years healthmin, stress ful life opposite to CS 4 years stress. Or better a teacher average pay. No money

you think this now and loads of people (myself included) did/do. however most of these people end up discovering an industry/occupation that they are passionate about or interested in AND they find hobbies and interests. being financially secure, doing something you are passionate about and enjoying your hobbies is most definitely a good life. combine that with friends, maybe a girlfriend and youve got an incredibly fulfilling life and WILL NOT feel like a slave
