    Some games just aren't worth playing. If you don't value the rules of a game you are free to keep the lid on the box. Be wary of people who are trying to convince you that YOU are the problem. Not only are THEY unaware of the TRUE nature of the game they THINK they are playing but they are also unaware of what is behind and beyond that game.

    When I think about escaping wage slavery, I'm not necessarily thinking about working my life away to make more money than I actually need. What about a modest life with fulfilling work although not high-earning but without the constant chase of wealth? Seems like something not ambitious, but it's actually very ambitious as it goes against all messages and indoctrination we're bombarded with since childhood.
    Does ambition always needs to equal making the most money possible?
    Still super useful information you've provided.

    • @TomScryleus
      @TomScryleus  Рік тому +9

      I made a video a few months ago "for people who hate their jobs". Where I said something like "some people are lucky enough to find fullfiling jobs, and we hate them because we are jealous". :)
      But seriously, I love the idea of finding a fullfilling job that pays less, than a corporate job that pays a lot but that you hate.
      And because I think its actually hard to find that, then its probably more ambitious than to become "rich".

    • @msmith3395
      @msmith3395 8 місяців тому +5

      I can say from my corporate experience that "finding the balance" is actually extremely difficult. You're either moving forward or sliding your way towards the next layoff list. You have no choice but to push yourself on a daily basis, staying late, working weekends even, trying to constantly multi-task, working while eating lunch at your desk, sacrificing personal health, etc. That's part of the psychological abuse of the wage slavery that you want to escape.

    • @gayfrogsociety
      @gayfrogsociety 5 місяців тому

      Ambition is working towards a worthy ideal. That is something that can only be defined by you, if you define it by money then it's about money, but clearly you don't. I agree it should be more nuanced.
      And asking questions like that are exactly what is going to help you get there.

    "The reward for being a good engineer is more work". ....a colleague told me this. I found out the truth of that quote the hard way. Not just a clever remark, but entirely true. In my last job I sure wasn't the best (entry level, so a bit much to expect experienced brilliance), but I worked hard and definitely well above my pay grade (which was bottom of the barrel). Lots of O/T work for free. At least they paid me out in a mass retrenchment. Was only too happy to take the money and leave at the end. This channel and others like it are helping me re-frame my perspective for future jobs. Thank you.

    At 14:32 the quote: "If you don't believe in something, you're gonna fall for everything."
    I think it goes something more along the lines of, "If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything." (attributed to Alexander Hamilton, et al.)
    Cool video, but I'm more comfortable with the daily structure of working a job I don't necessarily like: when the workday's done, so is my involvement and I'm free to spend my leisure time exactly as I desire - no hustle, no passive income, no worrying whether my three dozen revenue streams or crypto investments are performing as anticipated. I work and live; simple (in this case) is the operative element, as far as I'm concerned.

    • @TomScryleus
      @TomScryleus  5 місяців тому +1

      ​@@justinedse8435 - no. It's not a "limiting belief". It's just a cold hard fact. I can quickly and easily disprove this premesis.
      Think about someone who is a "lock-in". That is..they sustained an injury and are not just completely immobile...but cannot speak. The kind of person who has to communicate by blinking their eyes because they cannot move their mouth. These people exist. Locked in to their body.
      There is no WAY that they could overcome that and build their "dream life" by "manifesting" it. That's not gonna happen.
      And if it doesn't apply to all...then it applies to none. Like gravity. Gravity is an actual law. It applies equally to all.
      The idea you can "manifest" success is not a "limiting" belief. It's a FALSE belief. And those who believe it have been...wait for it...
      Deceived.
      That's right. People can still get deceived by other people selling them silly ideas that have no basis in truth. This is one example of it.

      The whole “manifesting” and “law of attraction” and “the secret” thing is obviously not in any way real. You think that a 22 year old man living in Somalia who has access to a cell phone and UA-cam could just “focus his thoughts enough” and manifest his desire to be CEO of Goldman Sacks? He could just “wish his way” into being a billionaire CEO of the largest investment bank in the world as long as he focused hard enough?
      No. Of course not. That’s literally impossible. There are far too many impossible hurdles in his way and his life is too short to overcome them.
      There are literally limitless examples I could come up with which would prove that the idea is bunk. People who believe in that stuff WANT to believe in it. It’s like people who want to believe in magic.
      There are documentaries here on UA-cam about “The Witches of Romania” you can watch. People phone them from all over the world asking them to put curses on their men for having affairs. They wire them money to do so.
      Nothing these witches do has any effect on the real world. But the people calling them desperately WANT to believe that it does. “Manifesting” is no different. It’s just another form of witchcraft. It has no power but people want to believe it does.

    You're actually right...
    In the past i've often believed that i couldn't contribute much to this world, because i didn't believe that i was actually going to manage how to learn it.
    Everytime i see something that could lead me to greatness, my anxiety kicks in because i recognize how much i would have to learn and how little chance of success there is, because it wouldn't contribute much of an added value to the entirety of it.
    In Short:
    I literally just think i wouldn't make it, but instead of low self-esteem it is anxiety driven, yet logical reasoning.
    I only now realize how much my own perspective actually sucks, because i just lost that insight of how you can choose it yourself and hie big of an impact it makes.
    My life always kinda took the same turn, because of that.
    Anxiety is just a bitch...

    After some thought about the term wage slavery, ive come to the conclusion that most people arent wage slaves but are enslaved by the monetary system. A worker has the choice to stay with a company if the worker/employer relationship is beneficial to both or look for another job or company. Learning a trade or skill gives the worker more control of who he works for and how much he can earn. Just my thoughts.

    The irony...
    I didn't recognize the bad perspective of mine, but i did realize years ago that happiness, just as unhappiness are a product of perspective and expectations.
    (to a very large part at least)
    ...Ok summarizing this video, i've learned what will help me:
    Finding something that i actually love and becoming great at it.
    Not necessarily the best, but the best to my ability, so i can be proud of my efforts and don't view the time used as wasted, because i feel personally rewarded by it.
    (unlike a regular workplace.)
    That should help me a great deal.
    P.S
    You mixed up the pills.
    The red one stands for the truth and the blue one stands for the bliss.

Food for myself and my two loving dogs take up the rest, they are my children so I work for whoever will pay me to make sure those bases are covered. The financial stress can sometimes be overwhelming but I'm trapped for if I quit my minimum wage job I don't have the college credentials or skill set to advance to something fullfilling and lucrative.

      Can you start a YT channel for one of your hobbies or interests? Start the channel just for fun and maybe as an outlet. Or teach people a skill? That could lead to sponsorships, if you are interested. Or you can branch out and have a patreon, with members-only content. There are many ways to branch out these days. Also, what skills do you want to learn? There are plenty of free courses on UA-cam. If you want skills in hands-on trades, that might be different, but in the meantime, plenty of tech-related free content on youtube. Learn how to photoshop, edit photos/videos, master Excel (which a lot of people ABHOR), learn accounting/bookkeeping (!), etc. @@timshepherd4626

    I like the term “residual income” instead of passive income because it’s more descriptive of how it’s works.

    • @TomScryleus
      @TomScryleus  6 місяців тому

      I think these are different things.
      Passive income is money earned from an enterprise with little or no ongoing effort. Residual income is not exactly a type of income but a calculation determining how much discretionary money an individual or entity can spend after paying their bills and meeting their financial obligations.

      @@TomScryleus the time I spent making my trade bot didn’t feel passive. Nor does the money I will earn to fund its capital. I have investigated different types of “passive income” and it always entails a lot of very active work up front. Out of curiosity, how much time does it take to make a UA-cam video?

      Doesnt matter how much work i put in. I still get passive income over time. Most of my videos make passive income many years after. And so its passive, instead of active =Trading time for money
      Passive income and residual income are related concepts, but they're not exactly the same. Passive income refers to money earned with little or no effort, often requiring initial upfront work, like dividends from investments. Residual income, on the other hand, specifically involves continuous earnings from a past effort, such as royalties or ongoing payments for work done in the past. While passive income can be residual, not all residual income is necessarily passive, as some forms may require ongoing involvement or maintenance.

    I watched another one of your videos about wage slavery and it was rather insightful and offered an interesting perspective on the matter. But this video? This is just awful. If you're "selling a product" here then it is just highly disingenuous, while if you trully believe all you're saying then you completely lack perspective and have forgotten that correlation doesn't imply causation (among other biases you exhibit).

      Beginning at about 4:53, you claim that your perspective changed, but based on your comments, it sounds like your economic status improved and that in fact is what caused this changed perspective. Hardly surprising. "Eventually I advanced in life and my perspective changed." Of course it did! Money does that to a person. LOL. "They don't believe in passive income or becoming a digital entrepreneur..." Really, Tom? You want to sell me a belief in those things? Maybe what I desire is not about the way in which I earn money. The world is full of other values that can't be measured in currency. Hmmmm, you seem smart enough to know that. But maybe I'm wrong. Good Luck on your chosen path. I don't mind being the person you look down on. Like anyone else I can only be who I am. I would love to have a changed perspective, but only if I agree with how I achieve it. Our world is cruel and forces us to believe that money changes everything. I just want more choices in how that change comes about.

      I rewatched that segment. Thank you for following up on this. I admit that segment is a bit clumsy spoken, blaming on my poor english.
      I was trying to explain how perspective makes a difference thats all.
      And my perspective changes constantly.
      For example this year I will start my own one man company. Im scared and dont know how its going to work. Maybe it wont. Or it will, and I will make a video explaining how i should have done this 10 years ago, that it was easier than I thought. This is what I mean with perspective.
      Of couse money is not the only thing, but this is a video about wage slavery and escaping it.
      I have made other videos explaining that escaping wage slavery wont make you happy, because life is deeper than that.
      I often mention the example of a person winning the lottery and the person lossing his legs, after 6 months they go back to feeling exactly how they did before the life changing event.
      And I also said that this channel isnt just about wage slavery. I want to explore deeper philosophical aspects of the complexity of life.
