I’ve met my fair share of people like this and the mysterious source of income is almost always “family money”.
Either that or life savings and a financial countdown that they ignore until they run dry
this is me this summer.
Yes yes, now where do I find this “family money” you speak of?
That’s easy, just go back in time and choose a richer family to be born into.
fuck around and seduce rich polyamorous people
some are in the organised crime business…
Where does one apply for one of these businesses?

So just have to eat boba?
You’re describing vacation, no? I have 6+ weeks of paid vacation every year. In Europe. Sure, six weeks isn’t the entire summer, but with the vacation days saved from previous years (since I rarely use more than four weeks) I could easily live work free for months. Granted, my income wouldn’t be mysterious…
Sorry, but the income source being mysterious is non-negotiable.
This is clearly an American centric meme, where having a week of paid vacation is a luxury and affording a flight to Europe is a fantasy.
Goddamn, where in Europe? France? I get only 5 weeks.
I work fulltime and have 13 weeks of vacation, but i’m an outlier. between 4 (mininum) to 6 weeks is common.

Color me jealous. Good for you, though.
i’ve been unemployed in europe with a mysterious source of income (my union) for eight months now. shit sucks.
That’s me, just not for one summer. I have a military disability pension, I’m 39 and get 3k on my bank account each month (with taxes already deducted). I don’t have to work anymore for the rest of my life, due to PTSD from deployments. I can do whatever the fuck I want and I’m getting the money to support that. Scarred for life though, life is a struggle every day. If I could choose, I’d pick working normally with no mental issues any time.

If you don’t mind poor sleep with horrible nightmares, waking up in a soaking wet bed, several times every single night, then sure. If you don’t mind not being able to go to a supermarket or store. Or having panic episodes or re-living the horrors randomly for no reason. Being bored shitless because you can’t leave the house, dont feel like doing anything but also are restless AF. All while having an existential crisis because I’m worthless to society, have no purpose in life, no satisfaction from achievements as I have none.
Trade?
Wow. You have some real problems, you should probably see someone about this. I already had to live through unemployment in the EU, it’s really not so bad. None of those symptoms at least. Yes, I was happy to finally find a job, tailored to my needs.
I see therapists 3 times a week.
I have realized what the problem is with vacations:
We no longer take off as part of a giant team that continues without us letting us just jump back in when back but for a lot of us it simply pauses our work without pausing the buildup.There’s not a casual getaway its a calculated loss or later tension and math quiz on whether it is worth it.
Thats literally the wrong way to lose stress.
Office next door started this thing in 2019. basically your entitled holidays carry over forever. And as permanent employee you can take upto 2 months of unpaid holidays on top without being fired, so basically people take 1-2 months vacations every year. One of the guy who we know hadn’t taken a holiday since 2019. He is now basically taking 9 months off work and 6.5 of those is paid at his full salary.
Motherfucker is starting the whole thing with muay thai retreat.
It’s called being on the dole, no? It’s nice for a while, then you need some activity or I would get insane. Been there, done that, can’t complain. Happy to work again but glad the system exists (getting worse though).
Almost there! I’m in Brazil getting US money!
Still working tho…
The (south) american dream
Summer? More like for the next 60 years.
I just managed to find a job I liked with people I liked and have a nice home.
I’d go insane. Id just find a new work to keep busy.
DOES BRO WANTS TO BE EPSTEIN???!!!
yes. that.
Mads ❤️❤️❤️
