Killing yourself only because you lost a career that drove away your friends is a very bad idea.

You work in finance, and you have probably been living with your job, but now that its gone (and it will be hard to get simmilar one in 2009), why not reassess your values and life goals.

Not having to wake up in the morning, switching off that damn mobile phone and swap to regional news from WSJ or Financial Times should be like a vacation for you, so cherish it and enjoy it while you still can.

Economic business cycles come and go, and although this bust is a fucking deep one, there will be time when ecomomic growth, and need for traders will come again. Until then, get out there, get some asian pussy, spend quality time with your family (as your relationship with parents should be past the hardcore performance pushing) and don't get out of your sweat pants.

And if this will bore you, do it like millions of college students do. Take a gap year, go abroad, go travel across europe for example (Many great different, yet US-friendly cultures very close to each other) go help some orphans in Africa.

Losing a job is not a loss. It is an opportunity to do other things, and when you come back to working life you will have more energy, and even your CV will look better.

It doesn´t have anything to do where you come from. It´s rather a story of ignorant parents or ignorant kids that fail to work together.

i know what it's like to be profoundly alone, and discovering (incredulously) that however cheesy it sounds, family is the only thing that will never leave you. but it will get better, it always gets better. you'll realize that these things really aren't a big deal, +1 little humble star in your life. you'll meet one good friend, + 2. you'll meet another, you'll go on a date, blink blink and eventually they come easier and cheaper - you get a dog, you have a good meal, the weather suits you perfectly today - and you find yourself washed in light again.

if these feeling of worth/hopelessness only get worse, you may want to consider seeing a psychiatrist. not necessarily because there's something wrong with you, but because it helps so much to talk to anybody, especially someone who really can help with more than words if it is necessary.

i wish you the best

First off, you solved your own damn problem. You stated that being in that fuck-up of a life you're living is fucking you up, then you give yourself a solution, so just go through with it (not the suicide, the moving away thing). Idk take a journey to some place that's fucking amazing, or find something that just brings you to as close a state to whatever form nirvana takes for you as possible. Personally, the only things keeping me alive right now (and I'm really not exaggerating here) are anime (FUCK ME FOR THIS BEING TRUE) and the thought of being able to go on study abroad to Japan if I make it to UC: Irvine (fuck you douchebags who consider this school a "safety" or low-end). In any case, you have to just find that something, that place where you can take a deep breath and say the rest of the world smells like shit while, for that one moment, you're not breathing the shit air in. Then it's worth it... almost. You still have to get the fuck off your emo ass and find that place.

Second, "dick trader"... I giggled.

Third, I wonder if anyone will actually read this. lol it looks so ranty (WHY ISN'T THIS A WORD FFS?!?!)

Fourth, where did you go to college. I can't picture friends you made in college being total cunts just because you're in a different state unless you started (and somehow only finished in) junior college. damn places aren't about socializing, but all I see on my friends' Facebooks (of those going to legitimate universities private or otherwise) are messages or photos or blogs about the good times, parties where people get so close to shitfacing but don't, the studying, missing everyone, and even a few about self-realization, how they (this incredibly hot girl who friend-requested me God knows why) discovered they were being shit to all their friends and wants/wanted to change. [Fuck, off topic...] But in any case, whether or not you went to a junior college, or a university, or UC Merced (no one I know can qualify that school as being good or bad yet lol), if your friends are being douchebags on that level, fuck 'em. That's really all there is to it. I mean, you "hate" them already (in quotes because I'm sure this isn't so much hate as it is superb loathing for how stupid those shitcocks are), go make new ones. Oh my, this just ties back in to the first part.

I'm speaking from totally different suicidal perspectives as you are, and I'm not going to start spouting some philosophical bullshit about how "life always gets better" (fuck the naive bastards who think that way... no offense). At the very least, before offing yourself like a fuckhead, do something epic. I saw someone saying to contribute your efforts in a lesser nation... If you STILL can't find something that makes you feel like life's worth it, then fine, jump, or paint the walls with your balls ('cause brains doesn't rhyme), hang yourself, do whatever. At the very least you'll have made an effort to find that "something worth living for".

/rant... excess profanity is just excess love... I'm not rereading this, but I'm sure it's stupid.

Thanks for the motivation. I'm thinking of moving to the West Coast, maybe going to work for PIMCO in Newport Beach.

Well, no not really. I went to MIT and majored in Math w/ CS, so a lot of my friends were pretty nerdy guys who couldn't get laid. I was lucky enough to have a steady girlfriend, but she ditched me my senior year for a job at an investment bank (well she wanted me to go with her to HK, but I said no, and I said no to long-d, didn't know how it could work if she was working 80 hours a week). Anyhow, dating at MIT sucked ass anyhow so when they went off to NYC and I went to Chicago they apparently all tried becoming "ballaz" or w/e.

All I know is that one of the guys, the guy who spent his bonus on a Corvette, he's now living with his parents in Seattle. Seriously, just knowing what happened to them makes me feel bad inside, because I know they weren't like this. We used to play BW together... now they just blow their money on poker, hookers, and coke and then bitch about the economy.

Gotta agree with you man. Especially that blog that i think ypang made, about his physically abusive father.

I can't imagine what having such parents would be like.

Being caucasian, and having caucasian parents (One polish other australian), i never had a huge pressure to succeed placed on me, even when i was heralded as a child genius (What a load of crap, all that knowledge [Of my supposed intelligence] did was make me incredibly complacent and lazy academically).

I can't fathom having parents that act in such a way. T_co, my heart goes out to you dude.

Having graduated school, i now find myself in a similar position where i basically now dont talk to all the people i used to hang out with. They all formed these little cliques with eachother from which i was excluded, almost organically (As if it was just meant to be i wasnt to be part of their close friendship group).

I'm really rambling now, so all i gotta say is that my heart does go out to you.

T_co, God made you for a reason, and you are here for a reason. Otherwise God would not have placed you here and given you a soul. He has major plans for you, much bigger than what you could possible imagine. He loves you so much that he was willing to sacrifice everything just to let you be on this earth and be happy and have an awesome life.

Get to know your maker and you will know what you are here for. and know that you are treasured. You are loved by God infinitely more than the love your parents could ever give you. And he wants you to get to know him and speak with him.

God bless you, T_co.

nothing that anyone here says is likely to change your life all that much, so all you can really do is take a step back and look at your life really well, see what your options are, be they move to a new city or town and start over, keep trying where you are and make amends, or just end it now. none of us can decide for you, so if there is something, anything, left to live for, then keep going for it, if not, then you can try to make something to live for, and if thats not going to happen then it your choice to end it all. ideally you will find/make something to keep on going, thats what most of the people here would prefer even though few, if any, of us actually know you. maybe that fact will help, because not everyone in this world is a totally selfish bastard who doesn't care about anything, we are proof. but either way, its your life, and your choice, lets hope something works out for you.
