It's like the game monopoly u can't win unless u know the rules...I started to study Austrian and keynesian about 5 years ago...being at my job an auto assembly line it use to blow my mind seeing people conform to such a position because it had benefits....I was miserable and put in 2 years...but what kept me was my mentor and the fact I could listen n watch all the bitcoin content I wanted for 12 hrs straight...I'm never going back family still thinks I'm crazy but they understand when I am able to Dustin Hoffman them aka the rainman 😄
being at my job an auto assembly line it use to blow my mind seeing people conform to such a position because it had benefits
As someone from a white collar social bubble I cannot I have a hard time imagining that. You mean there are benefits which make people enjoy or okay with standing at an assembly line all day? Really? What kind of benefits?

Yeah life health and dental...when I'd tell my family I had that job everyone was proud but me..was a real eye opener more power to the people that like it thought but just wasn't for me..monotonous work and 12 hr days...hard pass..

Oof 12h days sound rough indeed. Health&dental is nice and listening to podcasts (if i did't missunderstood) is also a perk. But if you're literally spending 12h at work there is almost no life left...

I added the podcast and YouTube because I would wear a beanie even when it was hot lol...we were not allowed to have headphones in ear... and yup would literally get home have about 3 hours to yourself then bed time...but it's cool I had benefits...lol should of seen the reaction when I would say I pulled my 401k as soon as I could 😄
