Today I learned that my friend who was a drug dealer used his easy money to buy bitcoin during the huge crash. Now he is approaching millonaire. I had a business idea too - renting stuff (mostly audio) for small scale outdoor events! Bought with most of my savings. Of course, corona killed the plan completely. Guess who bought my semi-pro speakers today, while saying that "yeah it actually isnt that big of a cost so I will take it".
After leaving his house I started crying. In my country we have a saying "the first million - you need to steal that", later money prints money.
Meanwhile I will be making less than the law dictates because that was the only job that I could find now. Paying rent and bills takes 82% of my wage. So its not like I can actually afford to take any risks. But I am high on adderall and feel hopefull that If I survive this for a few months I will find a second job and can start saving up for something. And well, I can actually only thank the guy above because he paid almost full price for 2 years old used equipment and now I could afford to pay off a short term loan I took after I almost drank myself (and my budget) to death in depression. No more drinking myself to death. I dont know why, but after feeling that I might actually die I wanted to start trying.
Please try to not wreck your health and get your shit together faster than me. I think Im gonna make it. We all are gonna make it.
