I feel like an NPC

Sounds like you’ve set yourself up for happiness, that makes you a main character in my world 👍🏼

why work harder

at work i have allot of downtime

Sounds like you got it figured out. I'm the same way. 90% of my reddit comments are written at work. I refuse to put in for promotions.

Life is cheap as a minimalist

I used to set myself like an NPC By January I was going in strong and had amazing luck By December everything failed.

After I was introduced to Anime, everything changed and now I was aiming for higher standards than my high school standards. My main standards, were get a degree, get married and leave this world.

After I was introduced into anime, I wanted to see the world, travel to Japan, meet friends, forget everything that the Western community have provided to me (never forget your parents).

Lastly, I am striving only to get up to day with all kinds of certs that Cloud computer engineers have felt or accomplished.

You gotta fight for what you really want to happen, not some random future that someone wants.

People underestimate the power you have in being "poor".

KING_CPB · 2019-11-28T00:37:43+00:00

Non white male here. Please don't listen to scumbags. Many immigrants sincerely appreciate your people for giving us chances to start new lives in America. We know our countries are unlivable shit holes.

There's great power in being anonymous. Ponder on that.

Night_Nin3 · 2019-11-27T22:21:43+00:00

Well, if society dont give's you anything, why even bother? Fuck society and focus on yourself m8 Cheers!

SuspectedLumber · 2019-11-28T01:56:17+00:00

As long as you can afford things you need without going into debt, you're good and this is enviable. To me this epitomizes MGTOW. And as far as shaming / pressure from 'famli' / global warming / political hysterics / and influencing tricks /Greta Garbo, they can all jump in a lake.

I tried to find my place in society, only to be regarded as a default-rapist privileged white male. So, 0% guilt and blow me, society. Non serviam.

MyLittlePonyofDoom · 2019-11-27T22:39:08+00:00

Why work harder

Because more money now means less dick to suck in the future and increased freedom.

Mysterious concept to grasp.

medsreddit · 2019-11-28T02:00:15+00:00

Do you have friends? A good relationship with your family? You need relationships to feel fulfilled, and it doesn't necessarily have to be a romantic one. It sounds like you're isolated and that may be why you're feeling unfulfilled.

Mindraker · 2019-11-27T22:44:00+00:00

taxed at a higher rate

Wait, what?

avtarius · 2019-11-28T00:51:09+00:00

You feel like an npc because YOU are the normal one among all these insane, ignorant NPCs.

I basically think the world is insane so if you see things for what they truly are, rest assured and live confident with the fact that you ARE one of the rare sane ones in your society.

jihocech · 2019-11-28T07:51:02+00:00

If you are on this subreddit, you are definitely not an NPC :-)

onbakeplatinum · 2019-11-28T10:41:23+00:00

Isn't an NPC someone who has no internal dialog and just repeats the opinions assigned to him?

gsharm · 2019-11-28T00:24:42+00:00

You’re realising your sovereignty - you’re no NPC.

DavidHill76 · 2019-11-28T03:05:17+00:00

You know the tax rate is progressive right, so you are only taxed on earnings passed that st the higher rate. Everything before is taxed at the regular rate.

Feeling like an NPC is nothing like what I feel like sometimes. But then again, I dont take my antipsychotics. Basically, to stay in line with your rhetoric of NPC that would allude to us living in a simulation... I feel like a worker bee or something similar controlled by higher dimensional beings that give us the illusion of free will.

Almost like a sim in the sims. So yes, an NPC in a way.

But more like a tool and we are given memories that replace the actual horrible things we are doing in reality

FaAlt · 2019-11-28T03:47:05+00:00

I've been on autopilot for the past 5 years. Changed jobs from one with a LOT of downtime to a very demanding one that pays more than twice as much. That hasn't changed my quality of life any, if anything it's gotten worse.

I_waterboard_cats · 2019-11-28T05:07:17+00:00

Nothing wrong if you enjoy your work and it allows you to meet your long term goals

civcinco · 2019-11-28T05:17:28+00:00

I've never heard anyone describe themselves like this. I don't know if you're complaining but you seem to have a pretty good life going.

MaestroLogical · 2019-11-28T06:08:58+00:00

Fellow auditor checking in.

8 hours of virtually uninterrupted time to keep myself entertained was worth only getting minimum wage.

I do wedding photography, so it's just supplemental, but gives me ample time to study or read etc.

ChadManning1989 · 2019-11-28T10:32:01+00:00

Way to go u/freedomloverdropout.

NPC is the ultimate Ghost-mode, and it gives you time to ponder reality.

onbakeplatinum · 2019-11-28T10:49:10+00:00

I live the same life. I work 7 days a week between 2 (easy) night jobs. I can pay my monthly expenses easily within 2 weeks. All the rest is pure profit. I can work days when available ontop of that for extra money. All my extra income goes to investments at the end of the month.

I have to wake up at the same time for both jobs, so everyday is the same. I have 6 hours to myself each day that I can spend however I wish; doing more work, sleeping, errands, games, YouTube, cleaning, sexual, etc.

I have no commitments other than those I assign myself.

notadaddy · 2019-11-28T13:01:25+00:00

Work on yourself. Get fit, eat right. That'll keep you on a mission.

Future-Lavishness · 2019-11-28T14:24:38+00:00

OP ignores the many rich successful people who pay 0 in taxes. Maybe your new hobby should be studying business models, tax law, and ways to make money outside the system of control that is the government. Your goal should be to protect as much of your property as possible, from all attackers be they female or the debt addicted Uncle Sam.

redditloginfail · 2019-11-28T19:32:45+00:00

Sounds like a pleasant npc life in a colorful little rpg home town.

Same here. I've had my same ol little business for a long time. I've had girlfriends (who themselves were constantly broke, unlike me) criticize me for not wanting to expand. Go big or go home. Well I like my home, and I'm keeping perpetually discontent turds OUT of it!

bhfanatik · 2019-11-29T04:38:11+00:00

that's the last pill you have to swallow, the matrix pill

ElTaimino · 2019-12-06T16:05:00+00:00

We sound similar! I sometimes feel like I’m a robot as well. When it gets a bit depressing or unbearable I just remind myself what I’m working towards. Gives me a sense of purpose.

I also find a lil spontaneous spending and every now and then helps, as long as I don’t take it too far haha.
