Got laid off today with a 33k severance

4  2018-02-24 by crookedmile

I feel like I should take the year off and travel, but I probably won't. I could go an entire year without working like Ant doing jack-shit. Should I be excited?

You should help a brotha out, I'm trying to get this cartoon made.

What's this cartoon about?

4  SGFTI 2018-02-24

Get another job after a few months and use the 33k to invest in kratomcoins.

I day-trade. I'm going to eat up this, as well as the unemployment, and invest. It's a fucking vacation

Nice financial planning, stupid

My rent/mortgage is paid off for the next year (rent = my house / mortgage = payment for my rent/mortgage)

Nice description of expenses, stupid.

Day-trading is for chumps. The only people who make money are the brokerages. Buy and hold.

If you're doubtful, I can hook you up with 2-3 guys who were champions of day trading in the 90s, and are still working in their 70s, because they pissed away their 401ks to their brokers.

Come to the west coast if you're not already here. It's wonderful. Live and work here. I tell people this. Nobody cares.

What kind of job gets a 33k severance?

Go to bangkok like /u/EncinoEscobar he could probably tell you where the cutest lady boys are

Global finance. They pull in 2 bil a year, my fee is jack shit.

8  Dr-Seepage 2018-02-24

Not just your fee, but also the value of your work evidently

I did hardcore work, they brought in a new CMO starting Dec and I fucking knew shit was not going well. This guy had no clue what was going on

It’s all a fucking rat race. I say stay afloat as long as you can without having to work for the man again. Do enough on the side to explain to future employers why you haven’t been working for the last x number of months. As cool and liberating as traveling the world for the next 7 months or so is you know the hacks you eventually interview with are going to have a hard time wrapping their heads around that one. “So you lived your life to the fullest this past year? Can’t relate.”

Unless you own the biz, there is no job security. Im lucky, I know companies outside of this that will subsequent the biz.

"I know companies outside of this that will subsequent the biz."

What the fuck is that supposed to be?

1  PauxFas 2018-02-24

Go to Ireland. Very cheap and from what I hear worth a look. Don’t waste this opportunity doing nothing.
