How do stupid lazy people make money ?

r/

I guess I’m considered in the lazy slow stupid category like I don’t have my life together. I wanna go back to college, also find a side job and learn driving..it’s like I’m running away from my fears but fears is something that we must overcome to get our confidence back. Maybe people say it’s true that fear is not really there to stop you but a way to push you to be greater person. Sighs I just wish I was strong capable and smart like everyone

    Networking. Just climb the ladder with bullshit. The more the bullshit the farther you go

    If you’re stupid, don’t be lazy. If you’re lazy, don’t be stupid.

    If you’re lazy and stupid then you have to go on public assistance or rely on your parents.

    It’s not stupid lazy people, it’s smart lazy people. They will always find a way to make money doing the least amount of work because they are smart, and lazy.

    In the gay community, prostitution. I know several guys who were too lazy to work. They still work but make $300 – $500 an hour minus tips. They can make $100k a year working 6 hours a week. Throw in onlyfans and a good looking dude can make a decent income doing very little.

    God I think about the sort of parents that raised you. Did they give a fuck?

    Usually they don’t. The ones that do are often benefiting from family wealth or businesses. And some just bought a winning lottery ticket.

    The world is chock full of them. Businesses need help. Sometimes gotta hire whatever idiot walks in the door and can fog a mirror. Particularly true at entry level positions.

    One moment and day at a time. Eventually, it is seen as hard work spread out over a period of time— could be a year, could be longer. However, the key is to get started and stay steadfast on the goal. Each person  learns and implement the knowledge at different paces. Behind each accomplishment are hours of effort untold. In the end you will be deemed as accomplished, far from lazy or stupid. You can do it!

    We look for jobs that we good at. We figure out how to do it fast so we can be stupid lazy for the rest of the time.

    If they make money, they’re usually born with it.

    Look at Trump. The easiest way to become a millionaire is to be born a billionaire.

    I think the OP mentioned they couldn’t drive, wanted to attend school, and get a job.

    I would break it down to do the easiest first. Learn to drive. You won’t have a car, but having a valid driver’s license shows on some level you’ve got your act together.

    That should make either school or job a little easier to start.

    More importantly succeeding at a goal will make you feel better about yourself.

    They say mean things about outgroups, gain a loyal following of equally stupid lazy people, and get voted in as POTUS

    Joining the military (at least in the US) is genuinely the easiest path to the upper middle class there is. It can also be a great place to learn how not to be lazy and stupid, but you can also do just fine if you want to remain lazy and stupid.

    Most jobs don’t require someone being smart. And a lot of people I’ve worked with are not at all smart. But for our purposes, I’ll think “smart” to mean college educated, and focus on jobs you don’t need higher education for.

    You can don’t need to be strong to do most jobs. Most people also want to not have to do a lot at a job, so lazy doesn’t really matter here.

    Most jobs have one big downside. Like they’re fun and easy, but they pay badly. Or they pay well and are fun, but they take a lot college degrees to get. Or they are easy to get, and pay well, but are incredibly boring. You have to just pick which you prefer: well paid, easy to do, doesn’t take a lot of qualifications to get.

    A lot of government jobs are pretty easy to do, pay well, and maybe just aren’t super fun or interesting. Like being a toll booth collector, a garbage collector, a bus driver, a mail man. You could work in a government office like a DMV or a courthouse and make decent money just showing up every day and doing paperwork. They just want reliable people who have very basic skills. I mean, these people often can barely work a computer, work a copier, answer a phone. I have dealt with people in these offices who are functionally illiterate or don’t know how to send an email or copy and paste on a computer, and have a job.

    Or we can look at jobs that are easy to do, interesting, but just don’t pay well. So, if you’re a book lover, working in a book store, or a hobby store. There are lots of people who want to work around something that is there hobby, so they don’t need to pay well because there will always be people who want to do it.

    Or you have jobs that pay decently, and are easy to get, but kind of suck. Working retail, working at a restaurant as a server, being a dog walker, being an uber driver, being a janitor. These jobs are easy to get because most people don’t want to do these jobs forever, so people are always leaving for a better opportunity. They can pay decently if you are in the right job, but it’s stressful or difficult, and most people don’t want to do it for 20 years.

    Or there are jobs that pay really well, but do require some skill and some energy. Being a plumber, an electrician, an auto mechanic, can pay really well. But you have to be willing to get the training, and then you have to be willing to do some physical work.

    If you are lazy and want good pay, generally you need some experience in a specific field. So if you want to work in computers, coding, IT, you can get really good pay and not have to work that hard, but it will take some smarts and time to get them.

    And then there are thousands of jobs that no one thinks of, that might be a great fit for you, might be interesting to you, might be easy for you to do, but you just don’t know to look for them. It can help to just look at job listings in your area, without narrowing them down by a search term, and think about all the you can do.

    I suggest looking at your city or state government for jobs, maybe not super glamorous ones, but they tend to pay well.

    Survivors bias.

    There are loads of uncreative, unreflective, unmotivated people who fail. But there are also loads who think they are smart and hardworking who end up succeeding through luck, momentum, and nepotism.

    I am smart and very lazy but make a lot of money. My employer likely only puts up with me because I am very good at my job.

    Get a trade so you can be at peace while you decide on the rest of your life. I’m 29 and I’m going back to school for automative technician. After that I’ll come back for a bachelors in something

    They don’t really. Either they miraculously marry into an income, get government assistance, and/or work a dead end minimum wage job.

    Stop making excuses, and stop feeling sorry for yourself. You don’t have to be smart. You just have to stop making stupid decisions.
