So how much do you earn not working at all? And where does that money come from?

Yep, see sadolite's above question.

Surely $400 is better than nothing.

And surely earning money rather than sponging of your parents. is much better for your self esteem.

And to earn $4000 you would need to have acquired a specific skill, other than lying in bed playing on your device and occasionally feeding chickens.

If one can manage enough for rent somewhere and the bare necessities,
I think life could be fairly enjoyable working as little as possible.

If one has a medical problem, or wants to live a long time even through old age, 'might be a bit uncomfortable or short, without money saved.

Its not  that I hate working, I just wouldnt work 12 hours a day for 400$ a month. People who agree to that are the main reason why wages are so low in the first place.

Ya, well mom and dad wont carry you forever. Life will smack you in the ass one day. Does it to everyone. The longer you avoid responsibility the worse the beating life will give you. I speak from experience.

Its better to be homeless and starve than to work for 12 hours a day for nothing until you die. But I have home and savings, so I wont starve.

So, if you don't work, how do you get by? Do you sell your body at traffic lights? Do you sell your blood to some charities?

The only possible way to survive in your case, without working, is that you still live in your parents' house because food and internet don't come easily.

If I were you I'd start a business. Your parents have money, seemingly. Borrow some from them.

I have 3 buisnesses. One is investment in gold. The other is tree farm. The third is chicken farm. I dont know what more buisnesses to start. I was going to invest in bitcoin farming, but thats so difficult when your country is 3rd world shithole and even google play store doesnt accept currency of your country.

That only works if you are a girl, which I am not.

I generally dislike blood donations because I need my blood for magic. Blood is a precious magical source and its stupid to waste it by donating it.

My parents have low IQ. My IQ is 140. They probably have IQ of 70 to 80. My dad never gave me any money, never even saw him, and my other parent is equally dumb and doesnt even know what investment is. The only option for me is to borrow from bank and then use the same money I borrowed to gradually pay back, but this only makes sense if other part of money is invested in something which pays off more than what I have to pay back. Now, my country has high interest rates too, and anyone who borrows from bank right now is likely an idiot.

Let me see. The house you live in now is actually yours and not your parents'.

I guess the farm you have is also yours.

And you don't need to work to get by, so that means you live off rental incomes like those you mentioned, gold, farm, and the like.

I can come to the conclusion then that you were wealthy before you got in prison. And you lost it all except your house and other unimportant stuff.

What did you do before getting in trouble? Let me guess. You were a programmer or something of that sort, judging by your said IQ. And you were caught red handed with child porn material in your computa, this is very typical of pedophiles.

Am I wrong?

Well, I am not going to deny it, but anyway, I think its irrelevant because even if I didnt go to prison, my country would still be shithole with 400$ wage per month. Most people in my country are poor compared to other countries.

If you have three businesses, why would you need to work for a mere $4000 per month.

Surely it takes 12 hrs per day to single handedly run a tree farm. a chicken farm and a gold investment business.

And so which third world shit hole where you live, has a dollar currency?

Like sadolite, I don't believe a lot of the stuff you come out with.

Not really. Gold investment is just buying gold. Its not a daily job. You buy it once and after it gains enough value and you need the money, you sell it gradually. Anyone who has decent IQ can do it. My tree farm isnt that big, and chicken farm is small too. The only hard work is around berries which take too long time to be picked, but thats like once a year work.

I lost count of all the bullshits i called.
Investing in gold literally requires the iq of a chimpanzeeeee!
Just buy gold securities (or actuall gold) and hold. 
That is not called a business. Unless you have a shitload of working capital, you aren't gonna make good money. Gold's ROI is usually just enough to beat inflation and not enough to make big profits.
Owning a house and farmland is hard in any country especially yours, considering the low wages. I am assuming that your parents owned it and now they are old enough for you to run things.
A farm requires initial capital itself. If you are in an agricultural area then i am sure the banks around there have special loan packages for farmers which you can take advantage of. This is my suggestion as a professional in this field, if you want to invest in your farm. 
But anyway, i know business is hard and requires a lot of luck. I feel sorry that you and more than half the world have to live in such poor systems. But from what i read here (child porn, prison, femboy/trans, hate your parents, etc), you are most likely trolling/bullshiting.

Most people are too stupid to invest in gold, and instead save money which then gets destroyed by inflation.

This is incorrect. The price of gold increased over 5 times over past 20 years. The only other option is to invest in buisness, which is high risk in shithole countries, invest in land (I already own land), or save money which is horrible because then inflation destroys it. So yeah, gold is a safe long term investment, just as land is, and returns are generally decent over long term because it does beat inflation in long run, which you would know if you simply asked google.

I'm sorry but your response to my comment does not reflect an iq of 140. No offence.
Yes, over 20 years gold's price has increased by over 5 times. You however, did not invest 20 years ago. The average annual return of gold for the past 20 years has been about 11%. Your country (which i am not gonna disclose) has had an annual inflation rate of about 12% on average for the last 20 years. So as safe as investing in gold would have been for you, you still would not have made any actual profit other than fighting inflation. Let alone calling it a business. 
Gold is indeed a safe investment in general (in stable economies). But it does not have the margins of a business. 
Most people are uneducated, that's why they do not know the options of investing. I wouldn't necessarily say stupid. But investing in gold requires no intelligence.
My suggestion was this: since you already own land; you can invest in your own land to plant different vegetables or whatever sells in your region. 
But again, i do think you are bullshitting at a considerable level.

What was incorrect about that? Just a simple statistic. If i am incorrect then please share your country so we can evaluate the validity of your assertions.

Oh, plenty of things:
1. The assumption that you know where I live, and the fact that you dont, makes your claim unproved.
2. Confusing general inflation for local inflation, a common mistake of many trash economists.
3. Confusing inflation of general products with inflation of specific products, another mistake of trash economists. Generally, if inflation of gold price is higher than inflation of products price you buy, investing in gold enables you to buy more products you want later.
4. The assumption that investing all money you have in farm buisness is a smart thing to do in a shithole country (investing some is good, I already do that, investing all is a shitty advice which then means if buisness fails, you bankrupt). Even in rich countries, people generally dont invest all money they have in buisness, but doing so in a shithole country is even worse, with higher failure rate, and even the fact that if you make buisness big enough, you have to pay taxes, which then defeats you further.
5. Not understanding the obvious advantage of diversity of investments

Now, these are just some mistakes. There were many more, but I am not exactly paid to teach.

No need to use economic jargon with me. I can see right through the bullshit. I did not provide you with the "local inflation". Inflation is 1 word. And i presented the average annual inflation of your country (confidently that it was your country) for the past 20 years. I am not an economist but i am acquiring a comparable degree. No mistakes made whatsoever. If i mistook your country then please tell me where you live and prove me wrong. 

The assumption that investing all money you have in farm buisness is a smart thing to do in a shithole country
I never even suggested that. I said you can take advantage of the special loan packages for farmers in agricultural areas. If there are any in your region.

Not understanding the obvious advantage of diversity of investments
Investing only in gold is not diverse. If you call 'investment' something your parents owned and you now controll then fine. But i call that inheritance. Unless you sell it or harvest the crops (which require investment to plant) you are not gonna make any money off of it. 

You are welcome for the 2nd lecture i give you on this platform. I guess you are getting home-schooled after all. 
So long!
