You really are stuck in 1993, hell the fukk no :mjlol:

No niqqa where are where you can? :mjlol:

A single person can survive on 60K in some places but that wasn't your premise. You and yours ain't living off 60K.
you can support a family with that, people do it with less everyday

Im 28 and have nothing to show for it. Sometimes I feel like aint no point in pursuing what I like because I just started almost 2 years ago. I have fun but I put in no pain or nothing. Wish I wouldve done when I wanted to instead of fukking around playing video games all damn day.
28 is young- full stop.
But especially for a man. You can do any and everything you desire.
Don’t give up. Ppl way older than you have started over and found success.

my life advice is this:

society is fake. your job is meaningless. you are essentially born a servant to the capitalist superstructure and will either die while serving it or after you’ve fulfilled your use.

the only true way to be happy in your infinitesimally small time on earth is to accept that ALL of this is not real.

very few people fight this system of lies; those who do are killed.

it is a prison of illusions.

But he WAS talented though, right? How long was doing what he taught you? Surely he started way before 37. Im not tripping off the money, I just regret not starting earlier.

I look at it differently, if you’re in your 30s you should feel blessed to still be here and try to make moves to extend your life as much as you can.
……:francis:
why is that impossible
please don't pass this mindset on
by 25 you should have a decent business, trade, or job
people gotta grown and stop acting like children
if you can't support a family by 25 u a bum and need to step it up no excuses
I’m quite content w/ being a bum actually…:wow:

Y’all can subscribe to/sign up for this socially constructed, rat race, family man, societal BS and feel “accomplished” all you want…I won’t stop ya…

I mean on a deep level he isn’t exactly wrong, but the truth of the matter is you still need a place to sleep, food to eat, clothes to wear, safety, and you want the same for those you love.

Unless you plan to literally live on the street and starve to death because you have a nihilistic view of things —you need a job.

Wither away in depression and nihilism or create your own meaning for your life?

Man he was two years in. People switch careers in they 30’s. Don’t let these weirdo’s tell you your shyt gotta be crackin by 25. That’s just not true for most people

Making beats/composing scores and shyt. Been wanting to do it since I was 18 (probably before then). I have fun and get lost in it sometimes but Im also easily discouraged by my age and how late I started.
28? Future, 2 chainz, French Montana, and Da Baby all got popular after they were close to or in their 30s. Only thing about beatmakers is once the sound changes a lot of them cats get thrown into the bushes for whatever the next wave is exactly. Or you got cats that will copy your sound to the best of their ability and charge lower prices to artists. With music after you learn the essentials imo you have to learn to be creative.

not about the rat race
you need money to have a comfortable life
never said anyone should have a family but you should have money to be in that financial position if you choose
in order to be free I feel like you need money
