Unpleasant Truths...

[Timmy C]

It's okay house prices are only 10 times an average household income in Australia not even taking into account those that are single and don't want a family it's even worse...but not to worry guys the government says just go get a second job and invest in an exchange traded fund instead of buying a house and rent until you drop dead and live frugal for a Lifetime Only to still be poor even at the end of your life and live a mediocre depressed existence, also if you don't mind can you please invest more in your superannuation fund kindly for when you retire....you know cause we won't raise the age for you to be able to access that money again we promise! working for the man instead of being the man, F*ck THIS SHIT.

Asking yourself is there a way out of the F*ckery????????

When you go to work and there is nothing healthy to eat

Going to work and there is a shit ton of traffic, leaving work and being in the same amount of heavy traffic

Having to pay for water...

Red light camera flashing you and you contest it and they still say you have to pay

There is a big chance you will die of cancer no matter what you do to prevent it

Damn. Really?

We better come up with the Fastlane version of YOLO.

Fastlane is YOLO just not the social media version of it. More like, "don't spend your entire life in a cubicle because you only live once" version of YOLO.

And they even have the GALL to TAX the FEE itself...

Fee: $121
Another Fee on the Fee (Tax): $2.84.

Why not Tax, the Tax on the Fee and go 3 levels deep?

TAXCEPTION

Thanks MJ, I'm really having a big epiphany here in regards to taxes. I've been learning a lot since I don't own a home, and I'm starting to see the burden it can be.

Edit:
It's a fee within a fee!

Video games and TV shows are worthless and will not improve your life.

Too many people don't realize this. It's a lie widely accepted by society too. Makes me sad.

Every day people all over the world show their low IQ as they drive down the road.

Every day I show my low IQ every time I open my mouth

You will NEVER get your time back. Protect it like it is the most valuable thing in the world because it is. Any sign of complaining or negativity is literally a waste of time that won’t help you

I have read multiple sources that show cancer is mostly diet/ lifestyle related and only about 5% due to genetics. Curious on where you got your info from? That's why diet/ lifestyle is so important to me because breast cancer runs in my family.

That's like saying death is 5% genetics and 95% diet/lifestyle. It just doesn't work, too many variables. That being said, a healthy diet won't hurt, and I have massive respect for people who can follow a healthy diet for more than a week.

Lol quit trying to justify why wasting time is acceptable. Video games are a POINTLESS waste of your life. And even worse, they are all designed to get you addicted. I know, I was addicted to Call Of Duty for a good year or two of my life. I failed out of college because of my addiction.

Facepalm - Wikipedia
A facepalm (sometimes also face-palm or face palm) is the physical gesture of placing one's hand across one's face or lowering one's face into one's hand or hands, covering or closing one's eyes. The gesture is often exaggerated by giving the motion more force and making a slapping noise when the hand comes in contact with the face. The gesture is found in many cultures as a display of frustration, disappointment, exasperation, embarrassment, horror,[2] shock, surprise, exhaustion, sarcasm, or incredulous disbelief.

For those people who feel "cheated" by not getting a high enough raise every year:

"You don't have 20 years of experience. You have 1 year repeated 20 times."

This is honestly the ultimate burn. It is such a bitter pill to swollow that you have been doing the same thing over and over again and maybe even getting worse.

Exactly. Without constant, year over year improvement in your skills or network, you’re just falling behind.

People tend to waaaay overestimate their value to society. Which is precisely why we hear cries for $15/hr minimum wage.

These people would rather be handed more money than improve themselves to earn it.

Sadly, many people come to terms with that via a layoff or that first unemployment check from Uncle Sam.

A bitter pill indeed.

Willpower as a concept means nothing objectively , almost all the psychology experiments related to this failed when attempts were made at reproduction (meaning , once the actual scientific method was applied they failed replication)


The difference between some mook and someone with a better body or dating life or a better job or whatever lies in the habits. Full stop.

Even if they arent doing it consciously (which isn't nee , ben franklin had a solid morning ritual) , higher functioning people simply have better habits. Thats the key your missing , forget training your willpower and marshmallow experiments and all that bs. Make your bed every morning and stuff like that , the small habits will snowball productivity and make you a higher functioning adult.

You cant blame your parents or the cigarettes or the smartphone , barring a philosophical debate on freewill itself you are a failure because you habituated yourself to fail. You make less than a doctor because you didnt put in doctor hours , you didnt go pro because the pros spent 6 hours a day training and slept in thr uniform to not break mindset , your socially akward around women because you whack off too much and your fat because you keep willfully buying and eating candy.

Statistics show that if you read this, you're most likely never going to be a succesful enterpreneur during your entire life, whether you like it or not, numbers don't lie.

Notable! - What would you tell your 25 year old self?

All I am saying is guess what the top regret is that a lot of people on our forum have...

Everyone you have ever known will probably be dead in 100 years.

Unpleasant, but also scary.

The top 20 Americans, that is 0.000006% owns more than the bottom 50%
I am a fan of capitalism but this much concentration of power can never be a good thing.

The US has close to around 800 bases in around 80 countries, spending 600 Billion per year on "defence" (while being on offence since the WW2).

Also, I wonder how much money goes towards the R&D section of the military. Here's a quote by Einstein, "I do not know with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones"

It looks that many people in this thread have a big misconception between 'unpleasant truths' and 'unquestioned beliefs' coming from a limited mindset.


There were more of the second type. I regret having read this.

Not one single person in this world will ever love you as much as you think you deserve,
Not one single person will ever give a shit about you as much as you think you deserve,
Not one single person will someday just appear and give you everything you have been wishing for!

EXCEPT YOU!

So wake the F*ck up to reality and take the necessary action for that person who loves you the most, who gives a shit about the most, and most importantly be good to the only person who can really try his/her best to give you everything you ever wished for.

Latest health discoverys are kept away from doctors university training. And the knowledge it's all just a few clicks away in pubmed.

Unpleasant truth: All men are self made, but only the successful ones are willing to admit it.
