Unpopular (but 100% correct) opinion on what to do if you’re a poor
Post Body

Probably an unpopular opinion on a finance sub and this definitely might be right for you, but seeing as most people here are in a worse position than bearded dragon owners- I would quit your jobs then spend all of your pathetic savings on travel. When I was 12 I did this with my savings to travel round the world, and the experience of a lifetime was worth a million times more than money in the bank.

I left about 1000 to set myself up when I came back, and even though I have no home, car, job, or friends, I have no regrets even as I type this out at the local library because some 9-5 loser forgot to sign out of his 1 hour internet session.

Like I say might not be right for you (and if it’s not, you’re basically throwing your life away to work for the man and become a brainwashed corporate drone) but you're only young once and I would definitely make the same choice again.

Gotta go, someone just dropped the end of their hotdog. Gonna sell it and put my profits toward my next travel session!

Edit: Wow this post really blew up!

Edit 2: RIP inbox

Edit 3: Thanks for the gold kind stranger!

Edit 4: a lot of naysayers have been disagreeing with my advice. This is what I have to say to you: travel. Seriously, go out and see the world. How? Just do it. That simple.
