receiving unemployment and somewhat financially stable. Mid 20s with my own place. Got a gym membership recently and despite that killing some time I find myself having nothing to do all day. Watching a ton of sports and really glad baseball started as betting day games is a great way to kill time. Anyone got any recommendations on things I can do with all this free time? I am likely not gonna be working till at least October, maybe even till the end of the year.

Getting in shape and solving any issues should be high on your list while laid off! What stuff do you enjoy? Might want to learn new trades while you have the time, it never hurts.

If you have no plans to get a job I'd do a number of things:

-Travel
-Play golf or fish
-Train for a triathlon, marathon, ironman
-Join a few dating websites (don't say you're "unemployed" though! Chicks don't dig that!)
-Relocate to Vegas for a few months
-Get a "fun" job at the beach (if you're in Jersey, try Cape May) - lifeguard, bartender, beach chair rentals
-Buy ever Phil Steele type book you can and start handicapping the upcoming football season
-Go visit VD in Thailand
-Go visit Scott Carter in CR
-Day trade


Just some ideas....

thinking about going back to school to maybe get an MBA, I considered working with a plumber to learn about that as it was something I was interested at a young age but most plumbers employ immigrants who work for next to nothing. Also trying to meet someone as I'd like to get married soon but having no luck with that either. Pretty much wasting my life away at this point.

Start gambling full time like me. it consumes most my day along with eating, sleeping, golf, chasing women and working out. Just win more than you lose and you should be good.

Well that is one of my goals in life of course and never to work another day, however over the years I have realized I simply do not have the patience and bankroll management skills to do it. As far as picking games I'm as good as anyone, I follow a lot of different sports and have a general knowledge about a lot of leagues. Do you bet for a living yourself? And what is your yearly goal you aim for to make.

As far as Tinder I'm already on their

Start looking for a job. Unless you have an in it's tough to find a good one. The longer you are out the harder it will be to find one.

Is a hilarious story actually, have this buddy that moved to North Carolina in January, he came by and told me bro, you gotta use this app, I am talking to 2 girls ATM, so I did, and bam... girl flicks me and says how come all your pictures are weird and fucked up... well she liked... turned out she was one of the girls talking to my boy (small world huh?) so after 1 week chatting and what not, we met at a bar in front of my house, had 2 beers (she paid for them) and went to fuck... she swallowed and everything, dated her for 2 months or so... it was fun, I did nothing special, be yourself and dont get intense and be laid back, I find that to be the best approach... this chick was a "good girl" (no drugs, hard worker, good position) and I was unemployed, a drug user and basically a disaster (a good looking one tho haha)... so I feel this chicks like bad boys for a lay (a 2 month lay) to break out from monotony.

Tinder is where it's at. My buddy got me into it recently and he has hooked up with about 8 girls. He's a good looking guy so that obviously helps. girls are such sluts these days. It's amazing really.

A chick that swallows on the first date... hmm, makes one wonder how many cocks she's had blow loads in her mouth in her career... Probably not a girl I'd be interested in. But hey, whatever floats your boat.

I don't work, but don't collect anything for it. I do a lot of sports betting and capping at small stakes and it consumes time. I go for a 4 mile walk every morning, housework, and yard work, and that 4pm I watch all the games. My advice is don't travel, and try to do things that don't cost money. I got rid of my gym membership cause I have plenty of time to work out at home. I do sit ups and push ups daily walk/run. Save as much money as you can and cut out as many expenses as you can.

Sent her packing 2 weeks later FZ... she wanted a relationship, change my habits and wanted me to stop talking to the girl I love...

She was a good lay and she comped me booze and drugs... not a bad deal for entertaining purposes.
