For people who make "good" money, whats your secret and why do it seem impossible?

[DrX]

I'm the type of person that have really high HIGHS and real low LOWS...right now is the low point. The demons are coming back knocking, as I sit slumped over in this overrated ass office.

Thinking of ways to get paid. I'm thinking, why do some people get opportunities and make money so easily and some people have to struggle to make it even when they work hard?

Whats the secret, what I'am doing wrong? I don't get it. is it luck? do i have to be a free mason? join the Illuminati? drink blood out of a golden chicle and behind over to get fukked in my ass?

Are people with money just born into wealth and get all the perks due to str8 luck?

I don't get it. Its like if you was born poor, black, from a family with a history of poverty in a poor environment...you're fukked unless you do some transcended elite shyt like be a great ball player or make a hit record.

I look at these goofy crackers that are happy, naive to the pain of the world. They live in their own comfortable bubble. Then I take the train home and have to see my own people begging for change and singing and dancing for a buck. these kids barely work hard...but yet they have the best of everything. I grind HARD and barely make it. Yeah I know about white supremacy and them stealing resources but still...should it be that hard to make money consistently?

Its fukked up. When you're black u have very few options. Our elders didn't help by not building. Its nothing more heartbreaking then hearing 100 "Nos" when trying to get a opportunity and then having to build from starch with a min wage job.

What are our options? min wage? escort? trap? rob? so we have to sell our souls to survive? disheartening

I feel like j cole song rich nikkaz ...

I make good money but my financial stability was significantly enhanced by my father setting me up a trust fund.

 

[Critical Distance]

see that's my point...our parents(African Americans)...(your British right?) was partying , getting fukked up and fukking each other...having interracial sex in the 70s...they weren't building nothing

then we have to start from 0 in a racist cut throat capitalistic society.....

I love my dad but sometimes i resent the fact he didn't work as hard as he was suppose to....god damn.....I gotta carry both of our workloads....the only think he past down to me was sex stories.....

I got cousins in their 20s thats done...its sad...all they do is smoke weed and chill at home...they got felonies and cant get jobs...some just given up on life....sad...capitalism is a motherfukker...and people that gain power know it, and will use their money to own your soul....

the white man is a evil genius, he knew what he was doing with this economic system

Thats the greatest motivation. I had 2-3 years of depression cuz I failed at making it to the NFL shyt I failed at making to college ball and I blamed myself for not saving my homies who passed away banging cuz I felt I coulda changed them. I got into online shyt lik ecommerce/Affiliate marketing, and it took 3-4 years of failing and almost getting evicted a couple times. But I also took those took years plus more and got 4-5 hours of sleep each day and grinding for 12. Grinding but failing until you learn your market and what youre trying to do.

Most people not willing to fail knowing they will fail at first. They just scared to fail and give up when they do. Cliche as fukk but its real.

Im not rich tho just started making good money 2 years ago.

Your interpretation of grinding is laughable at best...your motivation is money yet you refuse to put yourself in position to get any. You stated you have a degree...yet you dont put it to good use. You want to go your way...bit quite frankly your way is not a lucrative route...your parents helped to get you your degree right? Let you live with them way past the normal time...for the most part supported your decisions...yet you are bitter at them because your broke when they dont live your life. They did thier part...

Either be happy with your decions of self struggle...or stop thinking your smarter then the average bear and get a real job....

I am not Rich, but I am not struggling either. Grew up in a household in a household that lived pay check to pay check in a part of town where that's how people lived. Most of my parents money went towards their properties on the islands. The reality of it is I wouldn't be where I am at if I didn't major in STEM. I make a decent living. Though niccas like to clown some people here drop legit hints on making a decent living through certs...study for the Amazon AWS or get an associate of CISSP, someone will open the door for you. I am constantly learning. With that said once I reach my goal, I hope to be working for myself but I haven't reached that level yet or may never be. At 27, I am more motivated than ever.
