RE: Anyone ever panhandle so you can buy crypto ?

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

Not everyone has the same upbringing, I have a medical condition where I will never have the luxury of having a child or a mate. Sadly we live in a world where other peoples opinions dictate what we do and how we live. If this wasn't the case, I wouldn't be as discourage as I am and would probably be working. Sadly no one wants to hire a person that looks like the second coming of the elephant man (I have a condition called neurofibromatosis), to be their accountant. I just wish I knew this before spending 6 years on school and training. If one of my professors came out and sad that I didn't look the part on day one, I would have went with a trade. Sadly I went through the whole process, to be told that I "don't look the part" from some airhead at Robert-half, which is a placement agency for accountants after I did the work and graduated at the top of my class.

Having a bachelor degree and an accounting designation, I am sure there are a lot more options available to me that pay much better than $10/hour. I am homeless not retarded.

Well I wish you the best of luck. Sorry for your misfortune.

This is completely wrong. It is fallacious thinking. Unreasonable. Listen, I've been following you for a while. I do not have to be a genius to tell you that the way you're seeing the problem is the problem. I despise self-pity and think you need to change your outlook.
First of all, you need to leave behind the pain and misfortune that was your childhood. Secondly, you need to understand that you are the only one responsible for your life. You and only you will decide what becomes of yourself.

  1. Go to church and look Divine help. If you have tried everything, then you have nothing to lose by genuinely seeking help from your Creator.
  2. Start working. I don't mean get a job (someone hire you). What I mean is go to the nearest construction site, pick up a hammer and tell contractor "I want to work; pay or not." If he rejects you, go on to the next one until you find one. Or look for any need in your town, find a way to resolve that need "pay or not." When you push energy into the universe, it will come back and reward you eventually.
    WORK ≠ MONEY.
    MONEY ≠ RESOURCES.

I am being as direct as possible, because you need to understand that self-pity is self destruction. I will not encourage any self-pity. In a way that means I care for you. You can reprogram yourself.

I have been homeless. What I did: I bought a fishing pole and a tackle box with what little money I had. I drove my 20 year old car to the nearest lake, and started fishing. I made a fire, caught a fish and cooked it. Slept in my car and went to look for a job in a street corner where Hispanics would wait for daily odd jobs.

Btw... I already had a college degree too when I was staying at the lake homeless. Get your ass up and do something. I mean that in the best of ways.
