I finally started living at 28 | My response to "I'm 28, broke and living with my parents"

[@mattchongunfiltered]

Responding to myself lol x

I've more money than i will ever need, money won't make you happy it just lubricates the machine of life. Im 20 years older than you. I was in the same place in my 20's. Travel and be happy, you dont need alot of money to do either. Take time for yourself.

[@mattchongunfiltered]

@ thanks for your advice sir

I am 28, single woman, no job, still finding my balance. My parents sponsored me till I got my first corporate job in June this year (which I later quit). It's okay to be 28 and still not financially independent yet. And it's a huge blessing to have parents who are supportive. Best of luck on your modeling journey

[@mattchongunfiltered]

Thank you. I love my parents so much!

Working is one of the cruelest jokes humanity has played on itself sometimes I go into wally mart and see people I used to work with when I was 16 and I'm 21 now and that future scares me they look so old and tired I don't desire to be that way a company that trades my precious time for money, the machines stop but the people who work them can't afford to stop for a second machines are treated like people and the people are treated like machines. I really just desire to be alone and be a hunter gather I already practically live that way so broke I make homeless look rich but I love it when you live a busy life you see the way people treat you. I used to drink 18-20 years old so drunk I was half cut up to my eyes and the only problem I had was an empty bottle and I wouldn't trade those times for the world those were the best years of my life...yeah, those were the best years of my life I have no illusions of who I am. I love being what man considers feral. Hunting my food eating good, exercising, surviving ive been doing all my life and I love it that's who I am. Well this has gone on to long so I'll rap this rant up. I truly hope you evolve into your given career and never let anyone tell you differently if that's what you feel then go for it afterall we'll all be in the same spot life is a beautiful illusion. Sincerely~ Jaleal

@@NUCLEARNIRVANA999 wow thanks for sharing this. Appreciate you!

[@ameersJournal]

It’s great that you’ve had this awakening but you don’t deserve to be hard on yourself for it. Like you said in the video a lot of people understand these things too late in life. Be grateful you discovered it now

[@mattchongunfiltered]

I'm just grateful I have realised. So excited to finally start living! Thanks for your kind words

Yo Matti. Congrats on the success man🎉 . I'm in the same boat. I'm a 28M Londoner who works in the NHS, who lives with their parents who hates the 9-5 concept with passion. But I'm building my YT/IG atm to become an influencer and I got a plan to gain 100k subs by next year. So all hope is not lost. 🙏 If you ever need help/wanna chat lemme know. I feel like we're on a similar journey and "There's always strength in numbers". 👊

[@mattchongunfiltered]

@@TheWordsmith-bb6ix love that. god bless you!

[@PaulVonLoren]

There are always options, even if this somehow doesn’t work out, there are always many options to succeed in life. Good luck

[@mattchongunfiltered]

@@PaulVonLoren thank you

I just realized that from 2020-2024 my wage has raised $18k which if I calculate the total inflation that I’m one of the lucky few who has not taken a pay cut, but I’ve stayed in exactly the same place for the last 4 years. To get these pay raises I really had to go way above and beyond throughout the last 4 years, and I’m not going to keep doing that because now I’m not paid what I should be paid with all of the responsibilities that I now have. All the work, and promotions I haven’t been rewarded at all. I’ve had this vision of working my hardest, finding a house, then finally a longterm partner and I’ve passed up a lot of potential great relationships with potential partners because I’ve kept my head in my professional goals. I’m not living with parents, but I’m in a small 1 bedroom apartment with debt. I feel like I’ve also wasted my 20s at 28. I’ve got to find something I’m good at from an entrepreneurial standpoint. A 9-5 is going to keep me in the gutter, not keeping up with inflation, and going to keep me living from paycheck to paycheck.

[@mattchongunfiltered]

@@DropoutJerome 18k increase isn’t bad but society or the one percent wants to keep us in the gutter. Don’t let them!
