## How To Avoid Work
Here are some tips on avoiding slavery:
Here are some ways in which it is possible to avoid work:
- **Become as independent as possible**: live frugally, stop consuming, use old technology, grow your own food etc. Even if you need some money, if you need less, you can work less.
- **Just stop working lol**: fuck everything YOLO style, stop doing anything, go beg for money. You'll probably lose any social security such as healthcare and old age pension, but you may still get some minimum life support. Even if not, living fewer years in freedom is probably better than living longer in slavery.
- **Save money**: obviously, saving a lot of money makes you able to retire soon. Watch out for inflation that destroys your savings, put some part of it e.g. in gold so that it keeps the value.
- **Get a disability pension**: if you are really disabled then you've already won, otherwise either fake it or bribe a doctor (e.g. with sex). Some may even want to cripple themselves on purpose to avoid beings slaves for their whole life, however consider all the possible ways in which this can go wrong. One possible way is to e.g. stop eating and become anorexic. A whole life of freedom is worth a few months of starving.
- **Fake sickness or get sick on purpose**: if you're employed just pretend you're sick, bribe your doctor or break your leg on purpose so you can stay at home while leeching the employer and state. If you just keep breaking your leg over and over to avoid work, they will also likely give you some mental disease diagnosis and a disability pension, so this may be a nice approach.
- **Leech welfare**: it's a common practice to e.g. register at the employment office and then just take unemployment support.
- **Steal from the rich**: steal stuff from supermarkets, offices etc. You are also helping society by this. Do not steal from the poor.
- **Get a rich partner?**: someone rich can just take care of you for sex and love, however it may be not worth it as rich people are often capitalists whom it's better to stay away from.
- **Move to some nice community that doesn't force work**: the problem is actually finding such community, but maybe some hippie tent villages could be like that.
- **Go to jail**: in some countries jail are quite luxurious and once in jail you can just refuse to work as they cannot lock you up more. In jail you have shelter and food, i.e. already more than most people in a capitalist society. However watch out: for some crimes you may just get fined, not actually locked up, so study the law and see what crime it would be best to commit to safely get you to jail.
- **As a woman become a prostitute**: it's easy money and you literally get paid for having sex. Unless you're real ugly it may be enough to just "work" like this for a few days in a month.
- **Becoming as independent as possible**: living frugally, stopping consuming, using old technology, growing own food etc. Even if one needs some money, needing less is always better, as one can work less.
- **Just saying fuck you to any work lol**: fuck everything YOLO style can be fun, just stop doing anything, go beg for money. You'll probably lose any social security such as healthcare and old age pension, but you may still get some minimum life support. Even if not, living fewer years in freedom is probably better than living longer in slavery.
- **Saving money**: obviously, saving a lot of money makes one able to retire soon. Watch out for inflation that destroys savings, it's nice to put some part of it e.g. in gold so that it keeps the value.
- **Getting a disability pension**: if you are really disabled then you've already won, otherwise either fake it or bribe a doctor (e.g. with sex). As a desperate move a capitalist slave may even go as far as trying to cripple himself on purpose to avoid remaining slave for his whole life, however we can't downright recommend this as of course this can backfire in many ways. One possible way of doing so might be e.g. stopping eating and become anorexic (to many a whole life of freedom would be worth a few months of starving).
- **Faking sickness or getting sick on purpose**: for an employee it is possible to pretend to be sick to avoid work, to bribe doctor or break one's leg on purpose to stay at home and leech the employer and state is a possibility (of course we don't advice you to hurt yourself, just saying it's possible). If one just keeps breaking his leg over and over to avoid work, they will also likely give him some mental disease diagnosis and a disability pension so that he can stay at home indefinitely.
- **Leeching welfare**: it's a common practice to e.g. register at the employment office and then just take unemployment support.
- **Stealing from the rich**: stealing stuff from supermarkets, offices etc. is nice. It's also helping society. Do not steal from the poor.

However watch out: for some crimes you may just get fined, not actually locked up, so it's good to study the law to know which crimes it's best to commit to safely get one to jail.
- **Become a prostitute (usually for [women](woman.md))**: it's easy money and you literally get paid for having sex. Unless you're real ugly it may be enough to just "work" like this for a few days in a month.
