for me it was
>military at 18
>kill poor brown people
>out at 24 with 50% disability (brain injury from brown people IEDs)
>private contractor until 32
>nothing to spend my $200k a year on except traveling 3 months of the year, stocks, crypto, and women
>money multiplies while I help kill more poor brown people
>'retire' from killing brown people
>$1500ish a month passively
>more than enough assets to live out the rest of my life fat and retarded in some tropical paradise
>travel around the world a bit, but fucked up in the head/ideologically/spiritually from my young adulthood spent deployed and killing brown people
>don't really gain any enjoyment from any of it, because already done the ultimate thrill (close quarters combat and killing)
>keep going new places and progressively more shitty and dangerous environments seeking 'that feeling' (of being in potential extreme danger)
>seeing the extreme poverty and horrific conditions for kids just makes me incredibly depressed
>get involved with orphanage stuff
>build/help fund/run orphanage for about 6 months
>poor brown people just drop their kids off and leave them forever
>the only thing the orphanage did was encourage them to abandon their kids, rather than serving as a place for actual kids without families
>human suffering is endless, cyclic, and self-created
>have some sort of existential crisis, sell all my stuff, my house, my rental property, all my stock of companies that 'do harm' to the world (all of them)
>liquidate everything and go all in on bitcoin since it is karma neutral at worst

>witness the absurdity that occurs worldwide
>travel to 'Free' countries during covid, experience tourist-free tourism
