  2. have a second skill the applies to that skill
  3. Learn a trade that you can fall back on if your main skills do not work
  4. Learn to invest (401k, stock market, E.T.Fs)
  5. know a second language
  6. Be able to think critically and read the situation

​

So quite simple a lot of it has been beat to death over here but I am going to put my thoughts in it. Read it if you want.

​

  • learn your main skill for a job to live off of.

With this you need to have a good skill that you can apply to a job for example If your a truck driver you have the skill of driving a big rig and the licences CDL to prove it. If your and good your try to get 2 or 3 of them so you can go to your employer and they have it on record.

Same as if your working in IT you should have the certs to back up what your doing, for example if your building networks go for a Cisco networking engineer certificate plan.

​

  • have a second skill the applies to that skill

What Do I mean by this Well lets look at truck driving with a truck driver you can cross train into a Hazmat Driver, that skill now also works with trucking

With The IT route ok so you can build a network but what about a office environment, so you can get certs for windows server, call centers.

​

  • Learn a trade that you can fall back on if your main skills do not work

Ok say you got fired form your trucking job and the revoked your licences or you got replaced by a robot. Now what? This is your back look at where your at Say if your in Colorado look into licenses to grow pot or if your in the oil belt learn welding and get government backed certified some kind of trade that is the opposite of what your doing. But if you like me i'm in fuck now where and kind of screw so i'm washing dishes to gtfo trying not to suckstart a 9.

​

  • Learn to invest (401k, stock market, E.T.Fs)

ok so with this go get a few books on investment and retirement for 10€ your be better off before you drop 5k on a stock that you don't understand and post it on wallstreetbets. or you never got told shit and you look around one day at 30 and your like wtf i should play Russian roulette in Vietnam for some cash.

ok so your on reddit and reading this so your not under a rock and can find things no reason why you can not go check out the financialindependence Bogleheads. Then look into some Life Path Index with Black Rock.

​

  • know a second language

Location and politics Realy matters here, But if you look at the top 10 spoken languages you can have a good idea on what to pick but if your in usa you may want to lean spanish and not realy smart to lean hindu. or if your in Europe you may want to learn Arabic, instead of Russian.

So if you look at how long it will take to learn what you want to speak its around 600-800 hours for the most common, thats about 6 hours a week for 2 years, how much video games do you play. Or you can learn it at the gym when working out.

​

  • Be able to think critically and read the situation with introspection.

Quite simple Know when you are being manipulated, Look at how others act and there body language know whats not normal and act accordingly.

Religious people think there way is the only way because of X and if not your going to die. Then They almost always have some kind of story that may relate to your ideas or an experience you have. Once you see and learn to recognize it you will see it all the time.

Look at Your plans and research and analysis know exactly what your want to get out of it, Then act if it is worth it.

​

  • And Honorable mention

“No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.”

― Socrates
