*Working
Just last year I was homeless in Miami with no prospects at all. Sleeping on the beach and smoking crap weed out of my ressed up bowl. Now a year later I'm in D.C. working at a weed dispensary (something I've always wanted to do) smoking AMAZING shit all the time, making ridiculous sums of money every week, and staying in a super nice apartment in the city paying all my bills comfortably. I wont get into exactly how much i make but every week after I put my money up for bills and rent, I still have $1,000 left to blow on whatever! Plus D.C. is a great stand up comedy city so im still getting on stage every week. This shit is crazy, I never thought I could live like this. I was at absolute rock bottom last year! If you're going through a rough time just stay positive, dudes. A better situation will present itself eventually. Just work hard and treat people nice. Be an honest person. Show up to things on time. Follow your bliss and the universe will take care of you --- Getting girls is all about honesty. If you can fake that, you're in! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Sorry for the late replies, I'm actually at work right now and it's pretty busy lol
Ryven posted... Man thats so cool. Keep being an inspiration and share your story often. Thanks so much man, I wasa little worriedabout making this topic, I thought it might come off a bit braggy. I just wanted everyone to know I'm doing good after the whole homeless thing [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I've always been really good at sales, I actually sold body oils on the beach to survive in Miami. My cousin knows I am a great sales rep so he hired me on for his bud company. I can't say the name of it but he's built one of the top bud delivery services available in DC. I work at the pickup spot which is at a nice upscale hotel room where our customers (usually older wealthy folk) come and donate money to us to buy a sticker. We then gift them THC products that they pick out based on the amount of stickers they buy. The stuff we sell is at a considerable mark up and we do around 20 grand in business on a good day with delivery and pickup combined easily. I make 250 a day plus tips and bonuses, which is honestly just a small piece of the pie. My cousin is rolling in it right now, just bought 2 new cars. It's good to see him doing good, he ran his own small carpet cleaning business out of his van before this and has always been super positive and motivated Patty_Fleur posted...

Ugh, whatever. To be honest man, the only thing that all successful people have in common is a great attitude. Sure, shit happens in life and we all take it on the chin pretty hard every once in a while. But good things happen too, and great opportunities can open up for you. You have to be looking for them though and ready to take advantage of them when they come along. Sure SOME people may be doomed to a shitty life, but I feel like the majority of us legitimately have a choice in the matter. It's all about perception --- Getting girls is all about honesty.

How did this transition happen to immediately? Please, tell me, this could be useful. I was offered the job by my cousin over the phone. At the same time I was getting tired of my roommate in Miami and saw it as a great opportunity to save up for a new place. So I booked a flight immediately like, "fuck it". I figured, I came to Miami with no money and no plan and it worked out fine. Why not go to DC and give it a try? At least there's money and a place to stay involved --- Getting girls is all about honesty. If you can fake that, you're in! ... Copied to Clipboard!

just kind of pathetic when weed is this important to people's quality of life, it's his dream job because it lets him smoke weed, when the flipside is that the amount of time he spent smoking weed kept him from getting other jobs, like wow hooray for weed 520 bro am i right

That's another awesome thing, my cousin had to get an apartment to store all his shit in and a place where my other cousin can bag up all the orders and stuff so the place I'm staying I only pay 150 a week for. Fully furnished, wifi and everything too cuz it's an AirBnB.

it's not so much the weed aspect or the lucked into/family connection thing as it is being genuinely happy for another person's recent good fortune.

Ugh, whatever. Luck = Opportunity + Preparation. It's difficult to visualize till it happens to you, but having the right attitude and motivation to seek out opportunities is what helps people get ahead. Always try to learn new things, and be willing to try new things and you'll find your niche that will get you where you want. This happened to me with crypto the moment I decided to put genuine effort into learning about money and not once did I think I was ever going to be someone interested in economics. You'll find yours as long as you keep progressing. --- imgtc.com/i/4HgTl0ebzq.jpg imgtc.com/i/60CWP2Gtlg.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!
