The cost of netflix

I did that and doubled my income! Only 30 more years and I'm debt free and can finally afford that 3 room apartment I've been looking for. I just hope I don't get sick in those 3 decades...

>the average salary in the US is about $17.46 per hour
Nani?

Wut

>I don’t know how salaried people work
I get paid the same whether I work 30 or 40 or 70 hours.

You should be working while you sleep too, you lazy piece of shit.

no this is why

Salary is bullshit honestly. I sued my last employer in a multi employee lawsuit for unpaid overtime because we all worked more than 80 hours a week for a few weeks in a row. Ended up winning, and now that company doesn't even offer salary anymore

You can earn alot more if you just shut down your bodily and physical needs

I'm salaried also I watch netflix at work

how is it netflix and not just "existing"? because in that time you could be doing anything

It’s bullshit if the company is awful. I’ve been in my job for two years and average about 35 hours a week. I have the occasional 55-60+ when I’m on call and something goes wrong, but that’s at worst once every six weeks and normally no more than twice a year that something that catastrophic happens. Being salaried kicks ass for me.

>$17.50/hr
Nigga whut? Minimum wage in most states is still ~$7-8/hr and you're only getting $17+ as a tradesman or in a supervisory role in upper management. Or if you're salary not hourly, and have an actual worth while degree.

But people know they’re poor because real wages have been frozen for 40 years and cost of living has steadily increased

HmmMmMmmMmMmm

The average is thrown off by the (((people))) who “earn” millions of dollars a year from their “job.”

The avg. annual income by a single person is like $35k, or around there, which is an hourly rate of $16-17.

Minimum wage doesn't have anything to do with median wage.

damn this is the most retarded shit i've seen in a minute

These attack infographics on netflix are so bizarre.
>they take up x% amount of all bandwidth!!!
because people choose to use them that much, that's it, they're not hogging the internet

>Given the chance to keep working here... I would gladly accept a cut in pay!
Wut?
This never works out, i know 2 companies who stood before insolvency, employee took pay cut, still closed 5 years later. And i never heard that managment took a cut.

The results are skewed because they specifically state "salary" nor hourly wage. They're diving up salaried income in to an average hourly wage, and on salary you make the same fucking amount regardless of hours you put in unless it qualifies as overtime pay.

The only ones who will be on a salaried income are those with high paying jobs, like doctors, lawyers, craftsman, etc.

Most of america is full of hourly not salary employees and that's where the minimum wage comes in. That's why people juggle multiple jobs in murrika. You can make more money doing part time work for higher pay and less job security than working a single full time job with job security but shitty wages.

yeah they were healthier when they died at 35 compared to the 35 year old now, you're right

but it wasn't uncommon at all to die at 60 then, and that's fine
it's the optimal time to die

It's one of the most impressive power moves I've seen.

Sometimes I think about how much I would be making if I worked full time for minimum wage as like a burger flipper or some other service job. I'm even a bit generous and do the math at an $8/hr wage. Maybe $500 every 2 weeks after taxes? Probably clearing under $1k/month. Fuck just thinking about it makes me depressed, I don't see how people can do that.

The "average lifespan" being 30-40 in the past is misleading because it includes infant mortality rates. If you made it past infancy as a mideval peasant you had as much chance of making it to 70s-80s as you do now

being neet is comfy and stress free
being wagie is cuckery and stress all so you can make someone else rich
choose carefully

My salary is $60,000 a year and I feel like I can't afford much after rent, student loans and bills

>neet is comfy and stress free

I mean yeah, if you've given up on life and want to live like a child, then the neet life is for you. Myself however, I prefer to have my own property, a gf, a nice car, hobbies that cost money, ability to travel, and most importantly of course, the prospects of starting a family. The latter is the road to true happiness. Video games and jerking off is the road to perdition.

I like how this meme ignores the fact infant mortality wasn’t consistently reported, as we’re literally talking about the dark age.

I hate the opportunity cost meme so much. It assumes that there is work available to you all those hours, and that if you worked all the extra time your life would still be worth living and not suicide tier.

Full automation will never happen, as it will always be cheaper to just pay a retard (you, your children) to do a job than to build a machine to do it automatically. For when you get sick/injured you have to pay them to fix you. When you need to be replaced the net cost is zero.

Dude commuting to work for an hour every day costs you 5800 a year! Not even counting the cost of gas or the car!

Yang will save us. That silly chink will right the ship.

You’re right but your state unis are shit tier for the most part and not worth much. My medium sized university in Canada is ranked in the top 400 in the world beating most of your state unis. It’s mostly about what school you got your degree from.

I don't understand why you guys keep whining about these so-called elites and making them richer. Move to a truly socialist country if you don't want disparity in wealth. They don't affect your life whatsoever. Your happiness stems from your choices in life. If you're truly happy being a neet, then good for you. But I think you're lying to yourselves. The fact you guys keep crying about elites as the only reason to not work tells me that you're just jealous of that lifestyle and since that's unattainable, you give up into nihilism. You can become an elite if you actually worked hard on starting a business or doing something else really challenging. Nobody stopped them and nobody's stopping you. But really, is it so strange to you that some of us are actually happy working and trying to lead a balanced life with work, family, and interests? I'm more than happy with my salaried life, I don't want to be an elite. It would not make me happier than I already am. It's not toiling. I'd fall into complete despair living the neet lifestyle.

Man, imagine writing out all this cope for your shitty life of Sisyphean labor, where your only purpose is to make sure the rich continue their lives of perpetual play.

That's not how opportunity costs works you fuckin moron.

Opportunity cost is thinking in exact dollar amounts, AT THE MARGIN, and your two best options, not all of your possible options. If you watch four hours of TV, the opportunity cost would be four hours less to do something like, say, a hobby that they could learn about. Then they'd have to consider the cost of the hobby, like materials, gas, scheduling, the commute if the hobby requires them to travel to get the most from, and so on. It's not

"Dude, you could watch TV, or you could take a walk outside and bump into a billionaire who gives you a JILLION DOLLARS!!1"

>i can't fathom how people end up a decade+ of student debt
the same ppl who have iphones and drink moccachinos two times a day

Not an argument.

that's due to central banking
we got off the gold standard in 1970 which allowed the fed to print a bunch of money and give it to bankers and wall street while the purchasing power of our wages decline

The average American has a less fulfilling life than a medieval peasant.

imagine actually believing this

I forgot an am while shitposting you insufferable faggot

Sure it is. All you can do is rationalize your position in life. The nonsense you’re telling yourself to feel okay about giving up on being anything but a slave might convince an eight year old, but it’s not exactly compelling to anyone who hasn’t already swallowed their pride/humanity.

>opportunity cost
Economics sucks

What's the standard conservative defense for this?

>dude peasants had it great!

GEE, I wonder who’s behind this

>we told them it would trickle down!

It is for a lot of people. Even with families who give a shit and will take care of their elders, people living longer isn't a good thing for most. The people I've known who lived active lives well past life expectancy and didn't just rot away in bed or nursing homes lived lives closer to medieval peasants than anything else.

Man peasants couldn't even get clean water to drink, fuck outta here. They drank real watered down alcohol like mead, since while they didn't know it, it cleaned it of a lot of shit that made em sick. Getting an open cut could be a death sentence since there was nothing to reliably disinfect it with. A broken bone would almost certainly never heal the right way, leaving you to limp or hobble pathetically for the rest of your life.

Present, any tips on how not to be a wageslave without being a neet?

I wont speak for medieval peasants, but american life is garbage and you know it.

The US stopped goin by the gold standard in 1933, though. Also, the total operating costs of the world are worth more than all the gold we've ever found, by a long shot.

It's true. You died when you were 35, but at least when you punched out from your day's work, you hung out with your bros, listened to lute music, drank mead, and enjoyed life. Then you had a hut of your own to go to, and a drunk tavern wench waiting for you to cum inside her.
Today, what kind of incentive do you have to go to work for? You come home, you watch some TV, masturbate, then cry yourself to sleep. But hey, your life span is so long now! Thanks technology!

So your argument is that basic scientific and medical knowledge justifies the whole of this toilet of modern living? Ok bro.

Dude. You are a manchild living with your parents with no prospects for ANYTHING out of life. You are not gaining ANYTHING. You are staying at home all day, playing video games, wasting time, jerking off, mooching off your parents. All while making them unhappy too for bringing you into existence. Your life is already over. How do you rationalize that? There is nothing worthwhile in the neet lifestyle, all you do is just avoid actually living. Muh rich elites. Brainlet-tier cope. All life is struggle, find a way through it. But I guess avoiding it is one strategy. It's just not one that's going to carry over into the next generations for obvious biological reasons.

I drink with the lads, play vidya with them, go to shows sometimes, go fishing, wrench on my el camino project, AND have time with my kid and wife. Most Americans have this if they aren't complete pieces of shit and can navigate life accordingly.

How do boomers have so much money if they're so shit at math?

It could be better, sure. But I still got to experience things a lot of people haven't. I've listened to over two thousand albums of music, watched like forty movies this year so far, draw whatever I want, laugh almost every day. I've lived like a king. I could die in my sleep tonight and I wouldn't think bad of it.

low energy

Trump only sleeps 3 hours a night and he became president of the united states of america and has made america great again

>wife
Yikes

>wagslave thinks he has prospects

You’re going to work your entire life. So are your children. And their children. Meanwhile the rich will never do anything but spend the money your family made for them.

They give you just enough to keep you working and slightly reduce that amount every year. And you not only let them, you thank them.

>dude just work 24 hours per day
oh shit why didn't I think of this?

Who would win: Americans or some medieval peasants?

hhhhhMMMMMMhmmmmm

What company is going to want to pay you an additional $25,491 per year on top of what they already pay your dumb ass during work hours? Fucking think.

I could take that time that would have been dedicated to watching Netflix and, instead, use it to join a union and strike for higher wages.

Eat shit, young libertarians.

>be medieval peasant
>die of “plague” because your society forgot how to make soap
>but it’s infant mortality that caused you to have a 35 year life expectancy.

I thought this is what you retards strive for?

A fucking medieval peasant eats food that modern day health nuts pay a fucking premium for.

In the entirety of human history there was always somebody that everybody was working for you dumbass. What are you trying to get at? That it wasn't always like this? Lucky for you, you live in an age where somebody can actually survive as a NEET.

Your view is incredibly narrow too. Yeah some of my money goes to somebody else, but most goes to myself. I need money to fund my lifestyle and improve it so that it actually does make me happy. I wouldn't be happy with your lifestyle, do you understand? Not only that, but my line of work itself is satisfying. I don't work some dead-end job without prospects. All those basement fumes are getting to your head, my dude. Think bigger.

It's not in education, not that you've never been educated

>dude history so its okay

I like how you're now making excuses for humanity literally not advancing at all over the course of human history.

If you aren't a Europoor you're even worse off unless you're a rich kid with an oligarch dad.

Imagine having to go to war with these fucking soulless insectoids

Sounds like you're an all consuming cancer cell of a human, congrats. Now please fuck off and die with a smile on your face and your smug satisfaction.

>humanity literally not advancing
>Science, technology, living standards, communication, travel and exploration have not all advanced
>We are not healthier, happier, wealthier than our ancestors
>We live exactly like our ancestors do thousands of years ago and know exactly all they knew

I see. You're actually delusional. Lost your fucking mind.

I’ll sum up this thread

Neet bad
Wagey bad
Living long bad
Death GOOD

Socially, my dimwitted friend.

Moot should give me my billion dollars abck

This guy loves the hustle and bustle of the big city. Absolutely useless urbanite.

much like an ostrich sticks their heads in the sand, the average working class conservative would just stick their tongue back to the boots they lick

many people don't understand the opportunity cost of watching kinos. very based observation and thread

Wow that's the stupidest fucking logic I've ever seen

>to live like a king
like the r9k posters who live off of frozen tendies, piss in bottles, haven't talked to a non-mon woman in years and go entire weeks without leaving their house?

We got off the gold standard in the 30s you retard.

This but unironically

So you want a utopia where nobody has to work? Don't dodge the question this time. Explain what you actually want for humanity. I'm curious. Enlighten me with your neet wisdom. How are people supposed to be?

>pizza hot pocket with parsley garnish

Dodge my questions some more.

How China is going to overtake the US in a few years.

Friend, the fact you're sitting there defending the fact you work so strangers won't kinda indicates you wouldn't understand why the system is fucked even if you were told exactly how/why.

Wagecucks will unironically defend this. Imagine thinking your entire purpose in life is to get Schlomo his yacht as fast as possible.

Dodge.

Thank you for the dysfunctional economy based neocons

something-something but muh benefits increased.

So you're not going to regale us with any more cope? That's sad. I was enjoying the entertainment.

your life right now is more comfortable, fulfilling, meaningful, longer, and better in every possible way than 99.99% of medieval peasants and the fact that you don't realize this shows how much of a fucking clueless retard you are

there's no fucking way the average person watches 4 hours of tv a day. maybe if you have no job and are a shut in. even then that seems excessive.

Your conclusion is humanity is flawed, and like I told you before, you were born into the wrong species if you think so. Keep dodging though.

>all this wagecuck vs hard NEET in this thread

Why don't you fags just listen to me and take the truly redpilled middle ground and be a government employee?
Wagecucks literally PAY ME with their taxes while I browse Yea Forums and go on multiple breaks with my colleagues each day, and I drink their little smug wagecuck tears when they get angry over the fact that I'm earning more than them for doing less and none of it is going to some rich faggot at the top.

im still in college

i was in the military buddy, people call us welfare queens way more than they think youre somehow getting off good, just because the source of our incomes was tax dollars doesnt mean that we werent wageslaves, thats such a huge cope that i saw so much during my time in

smart phones, medical science, transportation, hygiene, communication, literally everything, everything, Everything is better today

Please, tell me what else I think. Your stance that “you can only ever be a servant or live with your mommy” was getting old.

This
Government office employees are truly redpilled, they are almost like ascended NEETs. It's a hard as fuck club to get into as well, and good reason. The freedom is incredible.

You sounds like a useless person who works in an industry that produces nothing. I spend 100% of my time at work working and enjoy 90% of it because I build and fix things that people need. It must feel awful to have sould your soul to a vapid corporation.

Its called an oportunity cost and you pay them all the time without realizing. Sometimes the cost is something other than money but basically everything has an opportunity cost.

That lack of initiative won't help you succeed, user

the third world is living a better life than your average medieval peasant, the industrial revolution has improved the lives of everyone on this planet,

By saying the system is flawed, it means humanity is flawed, because the system has been in place ever since civilization arose. So yes, you do think that.

Close, auto body tech.

Please continue with this line of logic. I like hearing about the story of Grug, who was paid three rocks an hour to gather firewood

>life is all about money

and watch you die without enjoying all that money. all that labor would have been for nothing

i would rather live a frugal life making very little and having a lot of leisure time than living a life of luxury and having to work 10 hours a day to sustain it

technology has made it easier than ever to find a family, spend time with loved ones, in faith and prayer, creating or building, or finding whatever meaning you want, for longer than you ever could. with the internet you have an entire planet of people at your finger tips to build a life with, settle down with, or just reach out to and make friends with. cheap transportation means you can actually get to those people overnight. life is infinitely more meaningful than it has ever been in human history

No, you’re a mechanic. Just like a janitor isn’t a sanitation technician.

So we ought to live like Grug? Ok.

I see your reading comprehension has broken down again.

You're posting on Yea Forums you fag stop pretending that addiction to the internet or your computer hasn't completely ruined your life
You will see the effect that modern day technology has in the coming years. The only reason you have such an optimistic outlook on technology is because you experienced a few years without it in your childhood, just wait until children are literally raised surrounded by social media and shit like iPads (which is happening right now). You'll see, faggot. Go read Unabomber manifesto

Then why don't you spell out for me what exactly you want for us all, oh blessed one?

The only problem with the industrial revolution is we’re a problem solving species. Solving basic problems should’ve spurred us to solve bigger problems. But people profit from the bigger problems, and they have all the power.

That's a nice thought. It's a shame literally every social trend shows growing atomization of shared values rather than greater community.

Technology is a disease, not a cure.

Because it’s more amusing to watch you angrily cope.

The only benefit of technology like we have is space exploration and we aren't even doing that bros

Then if you're not going to entertain me with your ideas, I'm not going to even bother replying after this. Good luck in life, champ.

Did you forget where you are? This shit might get you upvotes on some science fetish subreddit but we're on 4lokochannel, kid.

space exploration is a meme that the average person benefits very little from. if NASAs track record as far as failures is anything to go by they cant even do it anyways

we'll just bring global warming and war to other planets. why don't we fix our own planet first before we start colonizing space?
fuck the human race. i don't think we should colonize space. i hope some catalysmic event happens that wipes out humanity before then

your life with the internet is better than you could ever imagine because you don't have the perspective to actually understand what it would be like without, I pray that someday time machines are invented so that you can go to your favorite era and kill yourself after a week of not having the abundant modern luxury comforting you daily

>the third world is living a better life than your average medieval peasant

By what metric? Cell phone reception and gender imbalance?

Your job is to entertain me, wageslave. Don’t start slacking now.

I do remember my life before I got addicted to the internet faggot and my life consisted of:
>connecting with my friends
>doing things with my family
>phone calls to friends which lasted hours instead of soulless text on a screen
>daily exercise
>watching television and movies were actually a social experience
>video games were played with friends and were more exciting

It would be stupid to say I knew more without the internet but I was happier.

your life with heroin is better than you could ever imagine because you don't have the perspective to actually understand what it would be like without, I pray that someday time machines are invented so that you can go to your favorite era and kill yourself after a week of not having the abundant heroin comforting you daily

you remember with the rose colored nostalgia goggles of hindsight, the way that everyone looks fondly on their youth, no matter how shit it was
the idea of constant decline is a myth, propelled by nostalgia and survivor bias, every generation think they're living in the worst time in history, that humanity is about the end, fetishists of decline is eschatologicaly-lite

your idiotic comparison could apply to anything that people enjoy, it could apply to family, or loved ones, it could apply to hobbies, careers, anything.
your life is more meaningful than it ever could have been, ever, not just better, more meaningful

And faggots like you that propagate the myth of progress have always existed and now you've become a subspecies of weak and domesticated humans as separated from humanity as the chihuahua is from the wolf.

It wasn't mideival peasants dying of the plague, that was townies in larger cities in the late mideival period

Your idea that the internet and modern living has brought people closer and made life more meaningful is beyond retarded. Literally nobody believes this and I don't believe you believe it.

before the internet you had to be tied to random people who you happened to be born around, now you have the ENTIRE WORLD of people online who you can connect to, the conversation that you're having right now wouldn't have happened.
you have the choice to find the best people who fit you to associate with in the easiest possible way, that has never been the case until now

But you are a weak subhuman that would die with the most minor hiccup in society.
