you're a young man.. where do you want to be in 5 years? 10? still skating by being lazy? a business owner? rich? a home owner? settling in a different country? ask yourself these questions, because you're going to be there before you know it. seriously, years are going to fly by.

Advice: You need to realize that if you "fail and don't make it" you will NOT be fine.

You will continue to be a worthless bag of shit for the next 60 years with zero reason to live.

Envision that. If that doesn't make you want to change, you are fucked.

What you can do is, IF you have convictions and beliefs, you can use your status of economic privilege and comfort to educate yourself on matters that people who are not in your position do not have the leisure time to address. Going to the gym is always necessary unless you want to be a soyboy pussy bitch, in which case you don't have nor want and convictions or beliefs to uphold as a righteous man and this comment is then worthless on you.

Stagnation is a slow death, my friend. It's not living. Find purpose and a means to pursue.

Your parents are too soft to hold you to standards, so here's what you gotta do. You have to "manufacture a crisis in your life." All on your own. What I mean is that you have to deliberately remove the the support that allows you to be complacent and soft. In your case, a hypothetical scenario would be: Save up 10k and move across the country (preferably with some kind of job lined up). Support yourself, pay for your own shit, and those conditions alone will foster a change. You'll have to be attentive to things you weren't before, there will be genuine consequences for fucking off. Another hypothetical: go join the air force. Sign that dotted line and you're FORCED to adapt. Stuff like that.

So pathetic man.... being rich/successful is accomplished by 1% for a reason. You gotta go out of your comfort zone to have success. Too many people prefer comfort over suffering for a little while to reap the benefits later in life.

I’m 21 years old and I’ve maxed a ROTH IRA for the past 3 years... you have GOT to start working for your future now.

fuck your comfort zone, move out, stop depending on your parents, cut off everything that gives you comfort if you fuck up. i would rather be independent, strong and poor rather rich and spoiled. don't get me wrong, lots of guys would give everything to have what you have, you've been given an advantage, now it's time to make your own way.

best of luck.
