So rpietila is starting a Bitcoin illuminati Rothchild Bildercoin group from hell. Meanwhile im unemployed and still don't have an entire BTC. Financial freedoom Roll Eyes

What's your age range and your skills? Rpietilla is in his late 30s I think (even though some of his pictures look older.. he he he), so he has had some opportunities (and most likely should admit luck) to have achieved a form of financial freedom - nonetheless, NO one's financial freedom is completely ensured unless they are sure that their assets are sufficiently diversified and hedged. Also, the person must be able to live within the means of the passive income from the assets. Accordingly, there may be a need to continuously monitor the status of such "financial freedom" - unless the wealth buffer remains sufficiently great in order to make any threat to "FF" a non-issue.

Im in my mid 20's and my skills aren't anything that can be moniterised, or that can give you more than peanuts, I like music and as you can see I can type in english but I cant teach it because my acccent is shit as I dont have any english friends. My country has the most unemployment in europe. Even if I had skills I would be fucked anyway. Bitcoin doesnt solve this.
Also, freewill is an ilusion, this is why is absurd to think people have done anything for themselves, is just a chain of events, no one is responsible of their situation, im not responsible of my situation and rich people aren't responsible of their situation. Freewill, freemarket, all an ilusion.

So you're either Spanish or Greek. I once worked in an foreign language school in Tarifa, Spain. The main teacher there could not pronounce one single English word a hundred percent correctly, still he was teacher. Even here in Germany, I had English teachers with very strong accent. So never mind, your English skills seem to be good enough for teaching. Furthermore, I myself do not speak to English speakers frequently, but I managed to strip off most of my accent myself. You can learn that, too.

Or if you like music, try to make something out of it. I learned to play the guitar when I was 13, all by myself, until now I haven't learned to play by musical score, but I nevertheless I give guitar lessons to beginners once in a while.

I agree that it's not always free will that leads to success or failure. Often the successful are predetermined to be successful because they have the predetermined personality to achieve (which is both a positive and a negative characteristic). I'm not a big "achiever", but I don't want to be one either, I'm content with keeping life simple. I don't need much money. Just try some things according to your abilities and in the end you will still live. If you are able to save a Euro or two and put it into bitcoin, in the end you might still achieve financial freedom. Even if you can't work against - as you might see them - big forces, which keep the successful on top and keep your spirit down, you can try to use the small forces in yourself to make the best out of it. The best for one might not always be perfect, but it's still better than a lifelong depression.

Thats correct, and no I can't be a teacher or get any job at 25 without experience, they always want experience. Im considering studying something this year just to not stay at home again and hopefully meet some girls too, but fuck it, I didn't enroll so i'll have to enroll in whatever spots are left in september.

And no Bitcoin will not achieve shit for me if I don't have any spare fiat to invest on it, which I don't. Basically the little BTCs are get are thanks to Stunna which is like the only way to get Bitcoins these days, he's doing God's work. Once he stops the adv campaing then im fucked.
Bitcoin will never go high enough for me to achieve financial freedom because for that you need at least what? 100 BTC, so not gonna happen.

Being on a dead end is awesome.

GiveBTCpls:

You have made several points in your various posts around this topic of lack of free will and your current predictament(s).

You seem to have such negative attitude about possibilities that it seems difficult to influence you otherwise b/c you seem set in your ways, in various respects, which in my thinking may cause your prophecy to become self-fulfilling.

If you are in your mid-20s, and you feel that you have NO hope, then you are going to be much worse in your 30s, 40s and 50s, if you are so lucky (or unlucky) to live so long. I am nearing 50, so I cannot do as many things as I was able to do in my 20s, and I cannot make as many plans b/c of the age factor; however, when I was in my teens, I was just going with the flow, and by the time I was in my early 20s, I was making plans for my future. One thing that I learned in my early 20s was to set goals and to attempt to make progress towards those goals on a daily basis. Otherwise, there are so many distractions in life that can take you off course from your plan(s)/goal(s).

Figuring out some long term skills that you can learn in 3-5 years, and then applying those skills would NOT be too late in your 30s to have developed and followed through with a plan.

Also, with BTC, it is NOT all or NOTHING. You are actually lucky to already know about BTC, and accordingly, you can figure out ways to earn or invest in BTC on a dollar cost average basis (or a regular basis to build your stock of it). There is NO need to believe that the only way to profit from BTC is to own 100BTC or to go balls to the walls and put all of your nuts/eggs into the BTC basket.

Your signature is another give away of your negative/victim mentality. Few people want to give anything to beggars or to people without a plan b/c the one with the BTC is going to think that you will just pilfer away whatever they give, and so you do NOT deserve to receive the BTC. In this sense, you have to work on creating an image in which people think that it is good to invest in you b/c you are investing in yourself and that you are making a plan and that you are following through with the plan that you made.

Plans are NOT set in stone, and some parts of you plan should be flexible enough to evolve with changing circumstances.. .but NONETHELESS, it would be wise for you to create a meaningful long term plan that you can strive towards achieving, rather than mauling in negativity and lack of free will mumbo jumbo. Certainly there are a lot of obstacles, and certainly, there are more obstacles for some people rather than for others - however in the end, you continue to have some control over your destiny, even when I agree that there are a lot of aspects that are outside of your control. NONETHELESS, you can still work towards making advancements in your current condition through aspects of your life that you can control.

On the other hand, if you create NO plan and you continue to believe that everything is futile and predetermined, you are likely going to have continuing bad luck in life. So, think towards the positive and strive towards positive progress - otherwise you are fucked (to put it frankly).

I try to have long term goals but it's very discouraging when you can't have any savings since it goes to pay basic needs, so you cannot start any sort of meaningful life proyect. I've already given up on owning my own place and bringing girls there and generally living like a normal healthy human being. Im stuck in my parents house for life until I inherit it or some shit.
The extra money im making (in BTC) it's all getting saved and it's all thanks to Stunna. It's not much but I expect to at least have +1BTC by the time 2014 ends. Now I only have to wait that it sky rockets before im 80.
