I've made my riches by buying foreclosed houses from poor people and reselling them at a major profit. It's not right that people lose their homes, but if someone is going to make money off it, it might as well be me.

Wait, so you know you will work after retirement. You get personal enjoyment out of your work. But you don't know what your work will be?

It sounds like you're saying that you want to continue existing and being able to do things after you retire... That is exactly what retirement is. Why do you feel like you need to sound like one of those "go-getting", "I'm-always-working" people who thinks everyone should work 22 hours a day?

Realize that the only person in the world who cares about your frustrations is you. If you can't handle your shit, people won't want to be around you. You need to make it your personal responsibility to be a good team player. It should help you to realize that all of your amazing skills and talent aren't worth anything if no one can stand being around you.

As someone who lives outside of the US: your political and economic system is at best illogical

What a dumb, dumb, dumb thing to say. Why are you not embarrassed to be saying things like this?

I would like to get rich from working on an easy software project that will make me a lot of money for not a lot of effort.

Does anyone have an idea like that? Thank you.

My advice to you would be to be less self-obsessed. It will be important for you and your happiness to come to terms with how little you matter and how unimportant you are to the world. No one cares what you did in university - that was another life.

This should bring you comfort.

You got to take a 4 week vacation from work and YOU GOT PAID FOR IT.

That you would say "Maybe the problem is you and not your lack of trust fund" is absolutely hilarious. You think everyone is as spoiled as you with free months of salary? Sorry to shatter your world view....

Homeless alone 10 years ago

People actually fall for this? He made a long, sob-story blog post about how miserable he was being homeless and how he wishes he had more money so he could afford more nutritious food.

And then people sent this guy over $40k? For no reason?

I need to get into the sob-story business.

This guy seems to have fully embraced the "Haters gonna hate" mentality that he advised against in the last article.

Amazing what happens to some peoples' minds when they get hit with a little criticism.

The "supportive comment" is just a 2-sentence opinion telling him exactly what he wants to be told.

I would urge people to take any advice from this person with a healthy dose of salt.
