I guess many of you already had the same problems while in puberty, but many had chance to get advice from men succesful in life - and I guess some of you are, so this should be the best place to seek for one.

At the age of 15 I learned how to game (mostly read stupid PUA books) but managed to pull many young girls and got in few relationships until 17, when I learned how to be natural and dropped all those stupid pua bullshit, but it improved me alot - I cant deny.
I had good grades at school and managed to write final exams good enough to study abroad.
Since age 16 I managed to make regular money until I moved out to UK, that allowed me to start my new life there.

And thats where the whole story starts. Since I left school at the age 18 I moved to London to start my Media, PR and Advertising course at university that was.. little bit shitty. I am currently working as a waiter to save some money and I am applying for academic year of 2016 for Marketing in other cities.
But I still think like I am in a deep shit and I have almost no control over my life.
I dont know if the things I am doing are right or if they give me any future.

I hate my current minimum wage job and got no clue how to get something better here in London. I got little time for myself and most of it I spend with my gf, mostly fucking to get the stress away. I am not sure which university should I choose and if my course is good enough to give me something stable until I will save more money.

So, I might ask some open questions like : have you got any advice on jobs for 19 year olds in London? Can you guys tell me something about university that Im gonna apply for or the city ( if its easy to live and stuff like that).

What about future plans? I am able to speak German, but I dont feel like living in Europe. What about other english-speaking countries (but not USA nor Canada).

I would really like to speak to someone, so don't hesitate to ask me random questions. It's really hard just to move out to another country with noone by your side and live on your own cost at young age.

Welcome to the forum murof.

At your age, you're far from being in deep shit. As the old saying goes, the world is your oyster.

The thing about being an adult is that you're constantly thinking about the opportunity cost of taking a certain course of action at the detriment of another, and wondering if the decision you made was the right one. That's just part of life, so start making peace with that now and trusting your gut a bit more.

At 19 and about to study full-time (I assume) at university, unfortunately there is limited scope for you to have a high paying job. People are generally paid well due to their experience in a certain field, and that takes time.

Regarding universities, do some research on the alumni that are doing well for themselves career wise in the field that you want to get into.

Good luck.

The people I know who made decent money young with no education of any sort went into some sort of sales or real estate (Also idiots at whatever age).

Ignoring the trades also. I know in the US car salesmen can pull 50-60k with meh skill. Try cars?

Or if you want an education engineering is always a good choice.

Do you have to or want to live in London?
Since your feeling like shit started when you moved there, it is possible that you are simply not made for living in a massive, hectic city.

As for the university education: medicine if you have some affinity for it and don't mind to study for 10+ years. It's literally the only degree that virtually guarantees a high paying job (if you become a specialist, don't go for gp).

An engineering education will guarantee you above average pay, but not more than that.

If you're brilliant in math or programming: math/computer science PhD and try to get a quant job at an investment bank/hedge fund in the city.

You're young man!

I do know a lot about Finance and surviving in the Corporate world. So that's the only place I can help.

If you want to pursue Finance or Accounting, read my threads linked to my signature below.

There is a lot of great advice in there even for non-Finance people, especially Part II. Feel free to post any specific questions in those threads as well.

From London here,

I recommend getting into estate agency work or working as a car salesman. You can get on to an apprenticeship doing this and if you network well enough, you could get into this job relatively quickly. If you enjoy making money, then it is a good line of work to get into, especially in London.

Do what Roosh did...sort of.

I don't mean make a game website and copy him.

I think what you should do is to start a blog that chronicles your journey and choices. I'm sure plenty of people would find it interesting.

You can build and connect with a young audience in ways that someone older can't do.

Keep the blog as a side gig, and don't expect to make any money from it. Do it for catharsis, for shits and giggles, etc.

Talk about shit like style on a budget, career choices and education, on whatever you happen to be doing at the moment.

Who knows with time you might build a strong readership and could do any number of things.

Just be careful about posting stuff about drugs or anything really graphic, as someday it might get read by someone making a hiring decision on you.

Lastly, happy is something you should be right now, where you are. You are 19 years old, living in one of the greatest cities in the world, and have a good girlfriend to fuck non stop.

Reframe your thinking to be more positive, happy now and even happier in the future.
