I was broke and had shitty jobs until I was 29 years old. Your situation isn't unique. Stop comparing yourself to people with charmed cookie cutter lives, it's not realistic. 25 is very young still, it's borderline comical that you think you can make a judgement on your life at such a young age.

Luke dude, I’m 17 and I feel like the biggest failure on earth. Suicide enters my mind frequently, diagnosed autistic not having many friends. I subscribed and watched your story because we are both dealing with problems, and watching you I don’t feel alone, I hope you read this and realize that if you feel like a failure, I don’t see you as one because you’ve helped me, and you’ve definitely helped other people aswell.
Much love to you, Sweeheart. 17 is so young. You are only a year older than my son. He also has autism, but nonverbal. I'm glad Luke has helped you feel better about things. Just know that there are so many others that feel just like you, and no matter what, you are never alone. ❤❤❤
When you are that young and going to school and living with family, not fitting into the conventional molds society has created for us can be a heavy burden. I've been there. It can feel like being trapped in places you don't belong without a realistic escape - it can feel so lonely. Once you are older and truly get to choose your environments - your family, your friends, your work - you will find community through your uniqueness, and you will get to see that what sets you apart now is what makes you beautiful.

Why not get a job back home where you’re at? Buy a quarter acre of land and convert a big ass shed from Home Depot into a tiny home? Probably looking at $10K when it’s all said and done. Put solar panels on your roof and position your shed near a 5G tower so you have internet. $300/mo in rent max.

I was in your situation before: landlord wanting credit score, salary, etc. all I did was flash them my bank account instead and they let me in, those little bastards love money. Also for your credit score, get yourself a secured credit card where you put like 300 bucks in and use it like a card to build up your credit, then from there you can get unsecured - make sure there are no annual fees or other bs. ✌
You're not a failure. You may not feel young but you are and you have so much life left to live ahead of you. There's so much chance for new things to happen. Your success is not defined by how much money you make. It's about who you are as a person and what you do for the world and others. I can tell you have a good heart and I'm sure things will work out for you one day. You just have to get through the not so good years, they can be different years for all of us. At least you tried to get out and change things. You can try again. And as for renting, keep trying maybe you will find someone who will bend the rules for you.

Hey Luke, When I first moved to California, I slept on the beach and used the beach showers. I didn't want to be homeless so I rented a room in West LA. I had no credit cards. Within a couple of weeks I get a job doing electrical work in a motion picture studio.
That’s a great story man. How old were you then? I’m currently 24, and I’m not sure when that nervousness feeling will go away. Did you feel that way as well?
@@arlflors6273 Yes. I felt nervous all the time. It caused me to have pain in my jaw. It also caused terrible insomnia. I still sometimes get insomnia today. I was in my early 30's when left behind an 8 year relationship. I lost a house, my friends and nearly everything I owned. I still occasionally have bad dreams even today.
It's true you are still young. I didn't do anything with my life until 26, just lived with my mom and played video games, but I turned it around that year. I feel like I've lived multiple lifetimes in the 7 years since then: had a cushy software dev career, ended up homeless, now I'm rebuilding a new life. I realized the whole time I had the same amount of suffering/happiness at both extremes (aka hedonic treadmill). FYI not every apartment requires credit history or employment, some will just ask for a larger deposit if they're worried you can't pay.
Nobody really has it all together… we just get better (or worse) at our poker faces. The better your poker face and energy, the better society treats you. I know. I know. Life is backwards.
I'm curious how he buys things online or how he pays for his Cell Phone. Does he go to the AT&T or Verizon or whatever every month or mail in a check? Does he use his bank account regularly online? I avoid using my direct bank info online and don't even use my ATM / Debit card in stores. Credit Cards are a weird 3rd party but can be a financial buffer.
Brother... a lot of people understand your feeling. I'm also in a similar situation. In three months I'll be 24... and man, I haven't achieved much in life yet, but we can't give up. Crying won't lead to anything, bro. Keep going with your RUclips channel... but don't stop... try to grab any opportunity that comes your way, even if they're not so good. Sometimes you need a bad job just to set yourself up financially and then go after something better.
I'm in the Same Situation but physically and mentally ill so i can't Support myself. Just saying it can always be worse man. But i get the pain and frustration
26 is the beginning of hell. I just turned 29 in March and this was the hardest 3 year block of my life. You have 20k subs on RUclips. To me that’s success. I’m down $80k in a portfolio, I missed huge goals I set 2 years ago, and I too sometimes feel like a failure. Focus more on process and enjoy the little things. Best of luck man
I feel like a failure too. Im unemployed. I’m currently going to be evicted soon. My car has been taken away. Pretty soon I’m not gonna have anything at all and I’ll be homeless. Only 24 and it feels like my life is already over. Just telling you this so you know you aren’t alone in feeling this way and this world sucks
Having a credit score is equal to China’s social credit on a less extreme scale. Open a card and make small purchases, pay it back over time. It’s a necessity to live in the US.
@@Ventryx The socialcomponent is with regard to institutions limiting inalienable rights. The Constitution was meant to be a reminder that our "credit" is a natural consequence of our humanity and we were prescribed what to do in the event those rights were being impeded. This credit nonsense didn't come onto the scene until after the Civil Rights Movement. The whole scheme was setup to circumvent the Constitution and render segments of the population dependent on perpetual intervention from money changers.
Okay, he has money, but it's not known how much. Does he have enough money to cover the duration of a lease + security deposit? What happens if he has money for 4 months rent even including groceries / utilities, but doesn't get gainful employment before he starts running out of money? I think they're trying to avoid an eviction hassle. Now.... if he wanted to rent an apartment for a year and he literally had proof of a whole year of funds, then yeah turning him down over lack of credit card wouldn't make sense.
@ThorOdinson1269 Not saying that but even people with great credit have unforeseen circumstances come up where they miss payments; called life there chief
A lot of places just want to see that you make payments to something on time. I've been renting the same apartment for over 20 years and there have been times where I've come into cash and I've offered to pay the whole year off and they decline. Quite strange.
No need to go big. Good things can start small. I think social media ruined our expectations of life and how things are supposed to go. Maybe start with the non click worthy things in your life. They're important too. ❤
Matthew 7:13 “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:” Matthew 7:14 “Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
Seems like an easily solvable problem. Get a credit card, pay a few things (like gas, groceries) with it, then pay it off immediately. Meanwhile, take advantage of cash-back & points benefits. Problem solved. You now have a history of good credit management.
I wasn't aware you uploaded this video until after I joined your livestrean. It makes sense now why you weren't in the mood to talk. Every day, I have to focus on thing's that I am grateful for in my life, and work on what I can to change things I'm not happy with and pray about the things that are out of my control because those things are what make me become anxious and depressed. I know how you are feeling, so many of us can relate. Just keep in mind it won't always be like this. I sincerely hope you start feeling better and things improve in your life so you can find joy, peace, and fulfillment.
Told ya. Time goes by real fast. It’s all fun and games laughing on YouTune until you wake up 40, covered in tattoos, no job, no savings, and no future. Wake up now son.
Sometimes it's you and Sometimes it's Society Around you that has failed you too or just failed you instead. But it's you if you reflect on your local Society and find that you love those people. It's not you if when you think about the people around you locally and they make you infuriated.
Aye no credit score is ALOT better than a shitty credit score, mine used to be like 800, but there’s no jobs so I haven’t worked in over 2 years got into roughly 25k of credit card debt just trying to survive. AI or mexicans took all the jobs idk tah. Haven’t received 1 unemployment check either. Living off my babymomma basically. So trust me when I say this you are NOT a failure, I know because I am one. Unfortunately.
Luke, go get a secured credit card for 500 - 1000 dollars. I had to do this when i was young like you. you need to establish a credit history. It can be done quickly with in a yr or 2 making on time credit payments. You will then be able to qualify for a lease on an apartment or new car.
This is why I love watch youre videos youre just an very honest person who doesn't live in lies but see the reality of the world i respect that of you luke not many people can say that off themselves
Hard to find work in most third world countries, also the wages are much less. Things are cheaper but you get paid less also it’s more dangerous in those places so not much benefit
I’m the same way. At least you could get away on a vacation. Edit:I’m still job hunting and saving up for a car. Only have 2300 dollars and I know it’s gonna be taken out for rent..
@@LukeWeastIt’s hard getting a place bro. It was hard for me, and I had every resource available. I just called every apt available that was decent, finally found one that accepted a “letter of intent”, and boom I moved in. Worse case scenario you get a slumlord and have to order a couple of bags of termites before you move out
im 30 still with parents stuck at job that i dont know if i wanna stay couse what they promised to pay me is not what i got and no gf which scares me,wasted so much time on video games
As far as the credit card thing, I kind of agree that it's stupid but you can easily apply for one, even like a starter one that's just meant to build your credit and then within a few months raise your credit, so that's at least an addressable problem.
Go get a credit card, problem solved. Edit: you have to have credit to rent, you want to. You can offer to pay the entire lease out right (several months) and they will happily agree, but then they can disrespect you whenever because you've already paid in full. You may also want to leave if the landlord is insane... (Almost) no one is going to take cash payments for rent because there's almost no way to fall back on getting the payment if you don't pay. If they aren't using some form of credit to take payments, you either have a good deal or know someone. TLDR: It proves you will pay should anything happen for any reason because the world is not perfect. Sadly, it has nothing to due with money, (not really, anyways) and everything to due with the fact that all humans can't be trusted because some are untrustworthy.
@@LukeWeast Listen. Get ANY job and you can get a credit card. Once you have one make sure to never miss a payment, it is easy if you set up autopay on a mobile banking app. Then make a completely fake resume(s) and apply to jobs that actually pay decent money. Don’t feel bad about it. These companies are out to f**k their workers anyway.
I mean I’m 20 and I recognize an importance of a credit card in todays society to creditors and people who rent things and stuff. All it indicates is reliability. Without one, you seem unpredictable
You posted everything for us to see. In reality you moved to a different state to move in with a woman you met on the internet…..go figure it didn’t work out for you. We all told you. She booted you out. You most definitely failed at everything in life it seems. All you can do is learn from the failures and move forward. We want to see you post your successes, just put in the work
Dude, you need at least one credit card. That's like a basic life necessity. You should get one ASAP brother. Remember, hard times make strong men. Keep going. You can do this.
Think about work again to yourself. Some key words for you to remember are APTITUDE TESTS. You got to find your Niche in life. The rest is about finding where you need to belong doing what you belong doing for the kind of people that you belong helping so your financial system comes back to life and you join the cycle again. They have online Aptitude Tests. Who knows man. Who knows. Are you Hopeful or Hopeless?
Don’t have any reason to trust me but hit me up ,you can still win life man you can still find joy brother trust me I was on the edge of suicide … so I’m still alive…
You need to regularly be asking your lowlife viewers for superchats during livestreams. There's no reason you can't make $100/day from streaming Runescape. 6 hours straight with 0 superchats is unacceptable. You gotta train these moochers to pay you for your work.
How much different is Luke from say Asmongold? Doesn't he still live with his Dad? Yet, he's building wealth off of streaming? Granted, betting on success as a streamer is a longshot, but he should consider not shying away from how to make income. I dunno, maybe he's convinced he needs to do it all off ads, but most streamers leverage other things like tips or their own ad sponsor deals.
@@FluxNomad678 Pretty different. Asmongold is the CEO of multiple companies (Starforge, OTK, Mad Mushroom.) Respectfully, he's got a lot more drive, intelligence, and personality. But building a 20k sub youtube channel is nothing to scoff at either, and at this point I would definitely consider going all-in on youtube/streaming if I were him. Just gotta do a lot of research and treat it as an actual job rather than just starting a stream on a whim though.
Lots of people in your same situation. Take a few days to just relax, and then get the F up and make a plan. Make a list of 5 things you need to get done, and what you need to do to reach each goal. Life coaches can help with this if needed. Maybe sit down with your parents and ask them to help you. People have pulled themselves back up, while having even less. You're just having a little life hiccup. Always wishing you the best.
You give up so easily. Make connections, learn new skills, prove your worth to yourself and others will see that and give you a chance. Millions of people don't have credit and rent. Escapism is lowering your vibrational self and attracting similar energy. Take a chance at something brand new
I mean just because one person has not wanted you in their building doesnt mean to stop looking. People who dont want your money in hand are shitty landlords anyways. My suggestion would be to look into getting a job in the trades, whether that be a small little cabinet shop like my work, or you get into something that will teach you skills. Grind the way up the ladder and eventually you will get to the top. Trust me my guy, I've been living on my own for the last 7 years (I'm 25 turning 26 on the 16th of June) and I've worked all kinds of stuff. Gas station sucks I've been there, but I eventually hunkered down into a spot where I might not really enjoy the work but I worked and did lots of Overtime hours. Worked like a machine for 2 years and even with a wage increase every year its still not enough. When I left my house before I got booted out I was making around 12K a year and now Im practically just breaking the 40K mark and I'm still in the same spot where I was at with the 12K a year job(Still struggling). Renting sucks where I am at and im lucky to have the price I have. Its a hard world out there my friend, but sometimes you just gotta do up your boot straps and get to work, constantly improving and looking to be better then you were a year ago. Don't think of yourself as a failure, just learn from what has happened and make sure that you dont fall into the same pitfall.
@XXgoldenbullet why would you suggest he get into trades? You just said you make less than a McDonalds worker, and that you're 26 and wasting all your income on rent because you can't afford the basic necessity of a home. The phrase "pull yourself up by the bootstraps" was coined as a joke to make fun of the very idea because it's an impossible task
@@RegalChucky I live in Canada so McDonald’s workers make way less then what I make here. The pull your boot straps up is not a coined joke, it’s being serious. I pulled my boot straps up and I make more then what 95% of my coworkers who have been there for 40 years make. Trades can be anything like a mechanic, carpentry, etc and most of these jobs are good to have and not to mention pay really well especially if you get into a union. Don’t hate the player hate the game my friend
@@RegalChuckynot to mention living in Canada here is a hell hole of place. I’d assume you are from the States based off your comment. Try living here bud, bet you couldn’t.
Brother just get a credit card that doesn't cost money to own. You have expenses, just pay for one of the expenses on the credit card and then pay off the credit card. Dont go over 30% of your credit before paying it all off. Thats basically it. Stupid system but you do what you gotta do.
Luke, you have your whole life ahead of you. All you have to do is find a job. Get a credit card. Buy anything, e.g. a guitar, in installments and pay them off on time. Save some money. Rent a place. Look for a better job. You are still very young, you can do it!
Also get a Capital One credit card with a low limit. You're guaranteed to get approved, and that's how you begin building credit. I get that having credit is dumb, but it's good to do it anyway. You barely need to even use the card
Wonder about the inevitable need to go back to work somewhere. What does average small town have to do that is not Retail Hell or less customer facing? Industrial Park jobs? Warehouse / Forklift Material Handler? Just get in some place to do labor without customer bullshit?
That's all there is in this town. Actually depressing when you realize now you're back with no where to explore that isn't at the least an hour away, and the only jobs either require lots of experience, or your back working at a gas station/Walmart
Bro I can't keep watching these vids man. I've gone from deeply relating to you to having no respect left for you. You gotta get your shit together and move out of your parents. I'm 23 and make 15$ an hour and I have an apartment all on my own. I can't believe you went back to your parents. You should have just slept in your car till you got an apt.
@bradthunderpants3283 Paying for an apartment is probably the worst possible idea for anyone making $15 an hour ever lol you are the one who should be sleeping in your car. Goodbye to all your earnings. Remember you will work all day own nothing and be happy, or else.

It's true you are still young. I didn't do anything with my life until 26, just lived with my mom and played video games, but I turned it around that year. I feel like I've lived multiple lifetimes in the 7 years since then: had a cushy software dev career, ended up homeless, now I'm rebuilding a new life. I realized the whole time I had the same amount of suffering/happiness at both extremes (aka hedonic treadmill).
FYI not every apartment requires credit history or employment, some will just ask for a larger deposit if they're worried you can't pay.
Nobody really has it all together… we just get better (or worse) at our poker faces. The better your poker face and energy, the better society treats you. I know. I know. Life is backwards.
Forget renting an apartment. When I was young and traveling the country, I wasn't allowed to get a motel room for the night without a credit card.
I'm curious how he buys things online or how he pays for his Cell Phone. Does he go to the AT&T or Verizon or whatever every month or mail in a check? Does he use his bank account regularly online? I avoid using my direct bank info online and don't even use my ATM / Debit card in stores. Credit Cards are a weird 3rd party but can be a financial buffer.

Brother... a lot of people understand your feeling.
I'm also in a similar situation. In three months I'll be 24... and man, I haven't achieved much in life yet, but we can't give up.
Crying won't lead to anything, bro.
Keep going with your RUclips channel... but don't stop... try to grab any opportunity that comes your way, even if they're not so good.
Sometimes you need a bad job just to set yourself up financially and then go after something better.
Thank you for sharing bro. I can relate
God have mercy on you brother!☦
I'm in the Same Situation but physically and mentally ill so i can't Support myself. Just saying it can always be worse man. But i get the pain and frustration
26 is the beginning of hell. I just turned 29 in March and this was the hardest 3 year block of my life. You have 20k subs on RUclips. To me that’s success. I’m down $80k in a portfolio, I missed huge goals I set 2 years ago, and I too sometimes feel like a failure. Focus more on process and enjoy the little things. Best of luck man
If you have a degree join military as an officer
I feel like a failure too. Im unemployed. I’m currently going to be evicted soon. My car has been taken away. Pretty soon I’m not gonna have anything at all and I’ll be homeless. Only 24 and it feels like my life is already over. Just telling you this so you know you aren’t alone in feeling this way and this world sucks
Ugh 😢

Having a credit score is equal to China’s social credit on a less extreme scale. Open a card and make small purchases, pay it back over time. It’s a necessity to live in the US.
@@Ventryx The socialcomponent is with regard to institutions limiting inalienable rights. The Constitution was meant to be a reminder that our "credit" is a natural consequence of our humanity and we were prescribed what to do in the event those rights were being impeded. This credit nonsense didn't come onto the scene until after the Civil Rights Movement. The whole scheme was setup to circumvent the Constitution and render segments of the population dependent on perpetual intervention from money changers.
I understand this but it is crazy that they can't use proof of funds to accept you for renting
That's what I'm saying. Like sorry I wanted to secure a roof over my head and then find a job in that area.
@LukeWeast Credit scores are bullshit too; just cuz a person has ok credit doesn't mean they will pay rent anyways
Okay, he has money, but it's not known how much. Does he have enough money to cover the duration of a lease + security deposit? What happens if he has money for 4 months rent even including groceries / utilities, but doesn't get gainful employment before he starts running out of money? I think they're trying to avoid an eviction hassle.
Now.... if he wanted to rent an apartment for a year and he literally had proof of a whole year of funds, then yeah turning him down over lack of credit card wouldn't make sense.
@@clickityclak00 You're spewing nonsense, like people go "aight, let me start treating money differently and change up my proprities and habits"
@ThorOdinson1269 Not saying that but even people with great credit have unforeseen circumstances come up where they miss payments; called life there chief
Dude, you’re only 25? Cigarettes are fucking brutal. If you drop that poison there’s a good chance you’ll start looking and feeling young again.
HELL YEAH.

Not sure how "young" a 25 year old man can look
1.15 if you are not in the matrix, you are in exile. That's the sad state of the world today.
Fxcks me up every single day, thinking about it.
If you get a card and use it for gas and food instead of cash then pay it off every month you'll build credit.
A lot of places just want to see that you make payments to something on time. I've been renting the same apartment for over 20 years and there have been times where I've come into cash and I've offered to pay the whole year off and they decline. Quite strange.
No need to go big. Good things can start small. I think social media ruined our expectations of life and how things are supposed to go. Maybe start with the non click worthy things in your life. They're important too. ❤
Matthew 7:13
“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:”
Matthew 7:14
“Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
Everyone is a failure some of us find that out.
Seems like an easily solvable problem. Get a credit card, pay a few things (like gas, groceries) with it, then pay it off immediately. Meanwhile, take advantage of cash-back & points benefits. Problem solved. You now have a history of good credit management.
That would require work, he can't work because it's not about the mahhney
I wasn't aware you uploaded this video until after I joined your livestrean. It makes sense now why you weren't in the mood to talk. Every day, I have to focus on thing's that I am grateful for in my life, and work on what I can to change things I'm not happy with and pray about the things that are out of my control because those things are what make me become anxious and depressed. I know how you are feeling, so many of us can relate. Just keep in mind it won't always be like this. I sincerely hope you start feeling better and things improve in your life so you can find joy, peace, and fulfillment.
Told ya. Time goes by real fast. It’s all fun and games laughing on YouTune until you wake up 40, covered in tattoos, no job, no savings, and no future. Wake up now son.
It's coming
Sometimes it's you and Sometimes it's Society Around you that has failed you too or just failed you instead. But it's you if you reflect on your local Society and find that you love those people. It's not you if when you think about the people around you locally and they make you infuriated.
Aye no credit score is ALOT better than a shitty credit score, mine used to be like 800, but there’s no jobs so I haven’t worked in over 2 years got into roughly 25k of credit card debt just trying to survive.
AI or mexicans took all the jobs idk tah. Haven’t received 1 unemployment check either. Living off my babymomma basically.
So trust me when I say this you are NOT a failure, I know because I am one. Unfortunately.
Facts
Luke, go get a secured credit card for 500 - 1000 dollars. I had to do this when i was young like you. you need to establish a credit history. It can be done quickly with in a yr or 2 making on time credit payments. You will then be able to qualify for a lease on an apartment or new car.
Dont let yourself go. Now take one day of rest and go again try something else.
This is why I love watch youre videos youre just an very honest person who doesn't live in lies but see the reality of the world i respect that of you luke not many people can say that off themselves
Rest, no more toxic fun stuff, new adventure awaits soon
If you had six months rent buy a campervan. Then you own your first home
Glad you made it back to your parents' house in Chicago safe. Now go find a JAHHHHHHHBBBBB !!!
It’s not too late to turn your life around luke, you can still go to community college or trade school.

Do not give up
im 30 still with parents stuck at job that i dont know if i wanna stay couse what they promised to pay me is not what i got and no gf which scares me,wasted so much time on video games
Gotta play the game dude. Get a credit card, treat it like your cash, pay the balance every month, and build a credit history.
lol I should have said that.
As far as the credit card thing, I kind of agree that it's stupid but you can easily apply for one, even like a starter one that's just meant to build your credit and then within a few months raise your credit, so that's at least an addressable problem.
I was denied for the one I applied for already. Not as easy as it seems I guess
Hey man, don't give up. I'm rooting for you.
Hey, you successfully played hide the salami for a while, that’s not a failure.
Lol
Why did you put that image in my head curse you
@@UnseemlyGenie00 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don’t feel young either Brother😫
Go get a credit card, problem solved.
Edit: you have to have credit to rent, you want to. You can offer to pay the entire lease out right (several months) and they will happily agree, but then they can disrespect you whenever because you've already paid in full. You may also want to leave if the landlord is insane... (Almost) no one is going to take cash payments for rent because there's almost no way to fall back on getting the payment if you don't pay. If they aren't using some form of credit to take payments, you either have a good deal or know someone.
TLDR: It proves you will pay should anything happen for any reason because the world is not perfect.
Sadly, it has nothing to due with money, (not really, anyways) and everything to due with the fact that all humans can't be trusted because some are untrustworthy.
I'm trying
@@LukeWeast just go to your bank and say you need to build some credit and dont have any
@@LukeWeast Listen. Get ANY job and you can get a credit card. Once you have one make sure to never miss a payment, it is easy if you set up autopay on a mobile banking app. Then make a completely fake resume(s) and apply to jobs that actually pay decent money. Don’t feel bad about it. These companies are out to f**k their workers anyway.
I mean I’m 20 and I recognize an importance of a credit card in todays society to creditors and people who rent things and stuff. All it indicates is reliability. Without one, you seem unpredictable
You posted everything for us to see. In reality you moved to a different state to move in with a woman you met on the internet…..go figure it didn’t work out for you. We all told you. She booted you out. You most definitely failed at everything in life it seems. All you can do is learn from the failures and move forward. We want to see you post your successes, just put in the work
Dude, you need at least one credit card. That's like a basic life necessity. You should get one ASAP brother. Remember, hard times make strong men. Keep going. You can do this.
Yeah I'm trying but keep getting denied
I was 26 when I got my first credit card 3 years ago. Luke is 25 so there’s hope.

You need to regularly be asking your lowlife viewers for superchats during livestreams. There's no reason you can't make $100/day from streaming Runescape. 6 hours straight with 0 superchats is unacceptable. You gotta train these moochers to pay you for your work.
Beautiful comment
this guy fucks
Lol, that would actually work much better where do you guys get these ideas from?
How much different is Luke from say Asmongold? Doesn't he still live with his Dad? Yet, he's building wealth off of streaming?
Granted, betting on success as a streamer is a longshot, but he should consider not shying away from how to make income. I dunno, maybe he's convinced he needs to do it all off ads, but most streamers leverage other things like tips or their own ad sponsor deals.
@@FluxNomad678 Pretty different. Asmongold is the CEO of multiple companies (Starforge, OTK, Mad Mushroom.) Respectfully, he's got a lot more drive, intelligence, and personality. But building a 20k sub youtube channel is nothing to scoff at either, and at this point I would definitely consider going all-in on youtube/streaming if I were him. Just gotta do a lot of research and treat it as an actual job rather than just starting a stream on a whim though.
Lots of people in your same situation. Take a few days to just relax, and then get the F up and make a plan. Make a list of 5 things you need to get done, and what you need to do to reach each goal. Life coaches can help with this if needed. Maybe sit down with your parents and ask them to help you. People have pulled themselves back up, while having even less. You're just having a little life hiccup.
Always wishing you the best.
If you don’t feel young at 25 then don’t go for the cougars lol.
You give up so easily. Make connections, learn new skills, prove your worth to yourself and others will see that and give you a chance. Millions of people don't have credit and rent. Escapism is lowering your vibrational self and attracting similar energy. Take a chance at something brand new
Man I need to cast you in a movie
glad you in safe place at least
it takes two minutes to open a credit card, I'd recommend it, just don't use it or if you do use, pay it off in full every month.
Well stop feeling it, and start to know it lol. But don't take it too much personal, its the whole generation like that
I mean just because one person has not wanted you in their building doesnt mean to stop looking. People who dont want your money in hand are shitty landlords anyways. My suggestion would be to look into getting a job in the trades, whether that be a small little cabinet shop like my work, or you get into something that will teach you skills. Grind the way up the ladder and eventually you will get to the top. Trust me my guy, I've been living on my own for the last 7 years (I'm 25 turning 26 on the 16th of June) and I've worked all kinds of stuff. Gas station sucks I've been there, but I eventually hunkered down into a spot where I might not really enjoy the work but I worked and did lots of Overtime hours. Worked like a machine for 2 years and even with a wage increase every year its still not enough. When I left my house before I got booted out I was making around 12K a year and now Im practically just breaking the 40K mark and I'm still in the same spot where I was at with the 12K a year job(Still struggling). Renting sucks where I am at and im lucky to have the price I have. Its a hard world out there my friend, but sometimes you just gotta do up your boot straps and get to work, constantly improving and looking to be better then you were a year ago. Don't think of yourself as a failure, just learn from what has happened and make sure that you dont fall into the same pitfall.
you grinding hard. that's respect.
@XXgoldenbullet why would you suggest he get into trades? You just said you make less than a McDonalds worker, and that you're 26 and wasting all your income on rent because you can't afford the basic necessity of a home. The phrase "pull yourself up by the bootstraps" was coined as a joke to make fun of the very idea because it's an impossible task
@@RegalChucky I live in Canada so McDonald’s workers make way less then what I make here. The pull your boot straps up is not a coined joke, it’s being serious. I pulled my boot straps up and I make more then what 95% of my coworkers who have been there for 40 years make. Trades can be anything like a mechanic, carpentry, etc and most of these jobs are good to have and not to mention pay really well especially if you get into a union. Don’t hate the player hate the game my friend
@@RegalChuckynot to mention living in Canada here is a hell hole of place. I’d assume you are from the States based off your comment. Try living here bud, bet you couldn’t.
Brother just get a credit card that doesn't cost money to own. You have expenses, just pay for one of the expenses on the credit card and then pay off the credit card. Dont go over 30% of your credit before paying it all off. Thats basically it. Stupid system but you do what you gotta do.
Luke, you have your whole life ahead of you. All you have to do is find a job. Get a credit card. Buy anything, e.g. a guitar, in installments and pay them off on time. Save some money. Rent a place. Look for a better job. You are still very young, you can do it!
You are not a failure, Luke: you are human.
I will say, it sucks how a credit score is quasi-necessary just to get a place.
the system incentivizes you to take on more debt to build credit...
Also get a Capital One credit card with a low limit. You're guaranteed to get approved, and that's how you begin building credit. I get that having credit is dumb, but it's good to do it anyway. You barely need to even use the card
Oh I thought you were in April's kitchen again 😂❤
Wonder about the inevitable need to go back to work somewhere. What does average small town have to do that is not Retail Hell or less customer facing? Industrial Park jobs? Warehouse / Forklift Material Handler? Just get in some place to do labor without customer bullshit?
That's all there is in this town. Actually depressing when you realize now you're back with no where to explore that isn't at the least an hour away, and the only jobs either require lots of experience, or your back working at a gas station/Walmart
Just join the army mate
don't dwell on misery
Bro I can't keep watching these vids man. I've gone from deeply relating to you to having no respect left for you. You gotta get your shit together and move out of your parents. I'm 23 and make 15$ an hour and I have an apartment all on my own.
I can't believe you went back to your parents. You should have just slept in your car till you got an apt.
I tried to get an apt but I didn't have a credit score. So the option would've been stay in my car for 3 months
@bradthunderpants3283 Paying for an apartment is probably the worst possible idea for anyone making $15 an hour ever lol you are the one who should be sleeping in your car. Goodbye to all your earnings. Remember you will work all day own nothing and be happy, or else.
Remember, in most places multigenenerational living is normal
