So many of them are homeless and orphaned, now.
You have a girlfriend who will mother him?

Sounds like something I should do. We'll see.
I currently have about 7 children in my life that ask about me.
Yes.
Life is kinda pointless without any children. I heard Tate say that once, and it's true man. At 45 I feel kinda different. My immune system probably isn't the same, I'll have to be more careful, start getting checked out to prevent early death. It's pretty freaky.
Aside from that, it's usually women who ask the same question "where will they be in 5 years". And everytime what matters is how successful they are, or if the man can buy expensive shit. That's all it is.
If you're a multi billionaire people will never ask where will you be in the next 5 years, because what difference will it make if you're still filthy rich ? Right ?
People don't ask this question to find you're poor and working for charity, then give you merit for that.
I don't know any multi billionaires, but that's a fair point.
I'd say I'm an exception to that rule. I've never cared about money. I treat it like it's a toy, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give it all away on a whim some day. I mostly find it annoying if people appreciate me for what I've done as opposed to who I am. Yesterday, after several years, my mother found out that I am employed as a professor at a University. She's never cared about physics, what I had to say about it, what I did, for over a decade, including when she kicked me out of the house or when I was starving at the University as a student. But she does now care that I work as a professor, even though she doesn't know what that means.
I still feel like I've achieved nothing, there are still so many things I want to do.
He will be significantly different in five years' time. Unlike the two others, I see Spatial as someone who has dreams. There's no way he'll be the same in 5 years' time.
Dreams really come true, and it's been the case with everyone. People are willing to settle, or they say "I can't get a good job" but just saying that is an affirmation or a command. Then they have their 9 to 5 job that they hate, meanwhile they are the ones who said "I will get a job" before they went and got one.
(...)
See, this is why I say that you'll be somewhere different in 5 years. You take action to chase dreams. Not many people would start a mining ring or stick to their goals. It requires some kind of faith.
Most of the people here, I see as dream-less. They don't believe they can do things, or don't care. And that's fine. Not everyone needs to chase grand things.
I think you got lucky to some degree. For every person who makes a successful investment, there is a person who loses money. I do think you would've "made it" even if you were unsuccessful with your ethereum. I really believe if you want something hard enough, you get it.
I am planning on going back to school, there might be some changes to my lifestyle.
That being said I'll probably be in the same physical location with the cats then that much older, unless I find a certain someone who challenges me to do more things (again). I never would have seen other countries by myself for example.
Really? That's interesting. How do you plan to do that?
3. Spatial MindHe will be significantly different in five years' time. Unlike the two others, I see Spatial as someone who has dreams. There's no way he'll be the same in 5 years' time.
How different would you say he is comparing now to five years ago?
Like a new person, in terms of finance, maturity, outlook on life.
Yes.

A lot of people don't care about money. Personally I don't expect to spend a significant amount of what I make, that'll be for others.
There aren't many things I really want either. I don't have the latest RTX card or whatever nice toy. Maybe when it's time for me to go crazy and buy shit I'll get one. Maybe get a VR headset, I still never tried those. I'm a fan of the Tate Brothers, but I don't particularly agree with how materialistic they are. I understand all things are borrowed, including what we call, our bodies.

Well if I were in my early 20's I'd have a difficult time building a $16,000 supercomputer. I'd have to sell everything and work my ass off for it.
People are literally doing what they said they'll do. As far as I can tell, everyone who accumulated a lot of wealth, said they were going to do it before they started. And it's more than just saying it, we really have to immerse ourselves into it. When I take long breaks from here, I'm working my ass off, sometimes I'll fall asleep on my keyboard cause this market never sleeps. Takes no breaks.
Time seems to be going by fast too. Early 2022 is when things cooled off, and I came back here, and 2024 isn't that far away, and that's when you won't see me for awhile.
I realize I'm the prize. I don't expect to all of a sudden start dating some chick making 7 figures a year. Of course I feel like hot shit when people ask where I'll be in 5 years.

Cats!!!!? What a life. I’m trying not to be jealous because I believe in God, so I won’t say anything else about cats. I’m sure they’re cute though and will be in five years too 🥹
Men are measured by what they can do or provide for others. Otherwise we'll be considered losers.
It's not about what we do for a living, or if we're at the helm of some empire. It'll be all about how much we have to lose that determines where we are in life.
Without material possessions, a man will appear to be nowhere in life.
Do you think that?
I understand how this may be the majority view. Do you see things that way?
Yes.

I'll tell you this about me, 5 years ago.
You all knew me as you do 5 years ago, in 2017. I said, "I don't want to work". In the summer of 2017 I was playing this game called 1000 wives or something like that. It basically was a number counter game that would go up endlessly. I thought to myself, Man, I wish I can have numbers on the screen show up and make money like that. Being enthusiastic about PC building, I found a youtube video of a mining rig. I thought wtf is this ? this guy has 8 GPU's on a build. I saw he was making money. It is Ethereum, what is Ethereum I googled. It's a cryptocurrency. What is cryptocurrency ? Bitcoin !? Shit was 3 grand, when I first head of Bitcoin it was 3 cents.
So I said, yes, I will do this mining thing, oh yes I will, it's not cheap to start off but it will pay for itself, and I did my research
I enjoyed documenting this. That Mother bord in the center is thee, H110 Pro BTC+. I lucked out and the shop had 1 left. That board is made to handle up to 13 GPU's the best at what it does in my opinion. There's one that goes to 18 GPU's I think, but that is too much for power reasons.
I showed all of you what I was doing. Showing off that Radeon Card. 1 of 27.
Band new. The gaming community hated me. Same with some of the store employees. I was only allowed to buy 2 at a time, but the second those GPU's came in, I'd swoop in like a vulture and snatch 2 at a time, sometimes I'd manage 4 in a day.
Some more of this ^ Above capacity but I'm happy.
I took my old Phenom build and turned it into a rats nest, used for testing new GPU's and I also used it to flash the bios for mining. I was high on life. You know when you can smell something nice just around the corner ?
Parts from China took awhile to come in, the risers. I thinking to myself at the time most of the world doesn't even know about this, I'm still early. And it's true, I totally was.
I designed the frame myself and chopped up the metal at a friend's machine shop. When the machine came to life, I then had to learn how to use the mining software, which only took a day, but it did take weeks to optimize so it would run stable.
I also had at my disposal, and brand new unused industrial unit. There's the panel box, and you might notice it doesn't even have any plugs set it. This place was raw. I decided I won't do it becauseAm I really that different than I was 5 years ago ? A whole lot of you would suggest I am. I made a pretty penny in front of you, and in the next bull run 2024. I can't even say what I'm going to be worth, but because of how I make money a dollar is worth more to me than it is to other people. Right now I seriously believe in my heart, that $1 is worth $10,000 at the least. That's my expectation.
Time comes, I sell. And now I'll do shit like buy that Tesla I've always wanted. I can have the Tesla now, but again $1 has too much potential for me to go and buy a car that will cost me a quarter million in income taxes and sales taxes and the retail price.
5 years from now, I'm 50 years old, I'm either feeling like shit or I'm a health nut pressed for time, then some hater will ask, Where will you be in 5 years. Doesn't matter. What seems to matter is if the world has opened up to you, and it does so if you've accumulated a fortune.
It's not the material things that matter in life. It's the people. The people keep us. We're going to look back and think about the people, not the things before we die. As men it'll be about what we did for them.
If a man can't deliver, then what's the point of his existence ?
For all I know I could end up being an older Father, and that will be easy to do. If my GF doesn't want to give me one, then I'll find one. Just some normal broad. Maybe she'll rip me in half, but at least I'll get my kids. Life could be very empty in 5 years.
Society isn’t going to last that long. I’d at least prep for the end before saving. You’ll need food, water bottles, and actual seeds and stuff to plant stuff in your house or wherever you end up. Trust me dude, the end is here. Don’t try to save money, you won’t need it. You’ll need food and stuff.

You're trying to not be jealous of a No-Lifer raising cats at their parents' house?
Not to rub it in further, but we just got a new puppy.

Based on history we've survived surprisingly long and are crazy-adaptable. Odds are in our favor that we will persist as the Invasive Species we are unless directly eradicated by something superior.
