My problem here is TIME everyone. TIME

bottomset the ND thing I am working on- aunt has money to lend me, give me a few days maybe I will have something....something better than gay porn or stealing for certain..no time for rest of the posts, I will get back to it tomorrow. thx in advance.

I'd actually think you'd be pretty good at working a drill, or a truck, in ND. I also see risks.

The Good:

1) You'd keep busy and be able to basically work out for free, as its labor intensive

2) You'd be able to bank serious cash. They'd probably start you around $50K as an unskilled laborer, with an opportunity to be above $70,000 within a year. The guy I met in Cancun said they generally bump you up $20K after year 1 if they feel you will be long term and advance you from there based on merit

3) You'd learn a skill / trade

4) Be able to meet some quality buddies and get away from societal misfits

5) Be able to take tropical vacations, such as Hedoism, three times a year AND pay for them without thinking twice

The Bad:

1) Drugs and Alcohol will be an escape from the cold and isolation, causing you to oversleep and miss work, causing termination

2) The two or three strip clubs there will suck your account dry

3) Rather than take orders from supervisors in a stressful situation, you will volunteer 'better ways' to do things and argue with your boss in front of others, causing demotion and subsequent termination

4) You'll go on a bender and try and walk home one night in February and they find you in June

Apparently Mike has narrowed his choices down to two things.

1) Moving to thailand and living with Scooter while being his butler/personal assistant.

2) Becoming an escort.

Niether is a joke apparently...

Obv moving 5,000 miles away to a place you've never been, to work for someone you only know through the internet is the right choice here. It's not even close IMO.

Either one, it sounds like he's gonna get his ass reamed.

Mike, nothing you can do besides put one foot in front of the other in a positive way going forward. I've been broke, wealthy, broke, wealthy, in debt, wealthy, and then gave 50% of everything to an ex during the past 25 years. Things are good now, but I'm a decade + older than you, and it's all play money with our financial system at this point anyway. Honestly, just put blinders on, don't give a fuck about what people think, and get positive stuff done. Most depression stems out of comparing what is to what you thought it would be, or where others are, but fuck all that internal noise, and you have some advantages putting it all back together. No kids, I don't imagine any real significant debt, you're healthy besides the drug binges, which likely haven't permanently harmed you at this point. Some dude is coming back from Afghanistan right now missing a leg; you wouldn't change places with that fucker given the opportunity. Just regroup, stay the fuck away from poison, and don't worry about where you're at now. Just wake up tomorrow resolved to not fail, and to accomplish something positive each day. Just finish school if it's within reach, and at worst, you'll always make a decent living. Until then, suck it up and work through it. They'll probably add another 10 years to our lifespan by the time you're 80, so view yourself as 21 and just get busy.

BCR i remember when I broke up with my girlfriend a few years ago and you gave some fucking STELLAR advice...I still remember it to this day.

Dude you are a bad ass, and I would like to sign up for the BCR life philosophy classes.

HaHa, I remember this. It wasn't even aimed at you, but you seem to have gotten the most out of it. I recall writing it, but it's something I have to remind myself even at times, when I lose my edge. It's funny that you said you wanted to sign up for my philosophy. I actually have worked on a more expanded, and nuanced version of this in a motivational speaker type mindset, but have gotten sidetracked on other things. It's hard to reach the right balance with how my mind works, and what's palatable to a business-type environment. People view ideas such as hate, and anger, and think them bad, when I think how to channel them and make them productive as they are powerful allies as long as they are properly directed inward.

My guess is he doesn't do anything. He'll just sit on the internet and talk about it.

BCR, that post definitely helped me too, I remember it well lol.

Also, great advice to Mike and others dealing with depression. I used to deal with depression too, but I got similar advice to what you said, and it worked wonders.

I am looking for jack shit, I was ASKED how I was doing you rat bastard. Get a clue.

You are taking the question I posed and it's context at the time completely wrong. My premise was to get a feel for the situation, for all I know the answer might have been something like here are a few people to call who are well off, own businesses, get out here and doors might open if you apply yourself. That sort of thing. I wasn't expecting money or anything like that, most importantly I wanted to hear his tone, like what kind of answer did I get? Something I can work with? Maybe take some risky chances? SOMETHING???

No. I have a pretty clear idea of what it would take to move to a few countries and aside from Australia nothing seems feasible.

You blame me for trying in my spot? I'm looking at 20-30 years of EXISTING at best, scraping by like a rat. I would rather chance thailand or go on a crime spree than surrender my dignity and enthusiasm for life like 99% of this country. No thank you.

My depression is actually largely in check these days. Scuter really helped me turn things around, upstairs at least. Now I am certainly no less crazy but I am much more in control of myself and substantially more "aware" if that makes sense. A lot a LOT of my problems stemmed from my lack of self and a very bad tendency to hold on to things. All memories, all the good times and the bad, I had movie ticket stubs going back to 1996 among other things. In the last 2 weeks I have done the impossible, I have made a CLEAN SWEEP of my life. Four trash bags full of clothing and a box with shoes and some odds and ends LITERALLY are all I own and I could not be happier. I actually have a second chance at life, a pipe-dream up until recently. I am cautiously enthusiastic here, it's this whole needle stuck at zero thing I can't shake free from yet. Things will happen though, I will MAKE them happen, mark my words.

You are right, neither were nor are a joke.

They are also pretty far down my list of possibles right now. Oh, you didn't know I have other things going on?

Why might that be?.....

Fuck yourself. You are the one who needs to get a clue. You aren't going to be a nurse, you aren't going to join the navy, and you aren't going to work on an oil rig. You are over 30 years old. Time to be a man Mikey. Get a fucking job at McDonalds if you have to. YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A HANDOUT, you were fucking begging Scooter to take you in.

I have spoken with 5 guys out there telling me things are pretty rough at first, especially alone and without a car. In fact I was told not to do it under my current circumstances.

My uncle has decades of experience doing construction and such, and is dying to make some coin, between the two of us it's looking 45/55 military/nd right now. I want very badly for the navy to accept me, but it seems less and less likely, despite my very high ASVAB score and all the other jazz. So what is mike doing right now about his situation? Mike is not 100% sure what's going to happen but I do have ~5 reasonably good ideas, none of which include hitch-hiking to thailand, though I really wish I could. It would be a disaster in some way, probably. So heading up north is highly probable, with the 5k loan we are planning to get a work truck with camper shell to live in and essentially hit the ground with an "what will it take to get hired by you and your crew? you give the word and consider it done" attitude and see what happens. I am very confident if I put feet on the ground out there I will MAKE something happen 100%

just so happens that is the polar opposite of mike for the last 32 years now. things are changing,whether I come out on top eh my chances are roughly 35% right now, but I can work with that. It's not cancer ffs, I have a shot.

begging scuter to take me in? are you insane?

before you run your mouth further why don't you ask him yourself? you do realize I pm'd him correct? ah....whatever.

[408Mike]

If I were about to be homeless, I'd definitely come here and ask for help... I wouldn't actually do anything to make my life better. I'd just post about it.

yeah you did exactly that. several times in fact.

shall we recall your various attempted suicides with forum members on the phone frantically trying to figure out what to do or say to save your miserable life?

what a bottom feeder you've turned out to be weiss. I hope you can still make eye contact when you look in the mirror every morning. I am pretty sure you can't, and that's a shame.
