It's not by accident that we live in a class society. It's by design. That way, the upper class can have the hot girls pouring in, lured by abundance display - and mentality.
If you don't have money, what's inescapable is that you have to have another way to display abundance. Looksmaxing, ultra-social, some kind of performer, high status in one context... these kind of things.
@Desaint so that means OLD and cold approach are out and the only true answer is to build status.
I was kinda hoping this would be the consensus too, as looksmaxxing and being socially skilled, has got me just enough hot girls to keep me comfortable, but it still felt sub-optimal.
@Redpillray if you can go from lower- to upper-middle class in ~5 years, I'd say it's worth it. If it's ~20 years, probably not.
@TwoInchesOfShaft Truly great tip. This is definitely something I’ve experienced through social circle in high school.
@Typo-MAGAshiv well you’ve pretty much laid out my entire process here. This is exactly what I do. It’s quite derivative of the polarization approach in models by Mark Manson.
Where were you meeting these women?
@RedPirate751 see I used to do this. Just rando chicks at target and shit, but it seems to me, that people when they’re out and about are always in a hurry. Especially in bigger cities. Also, do you convert these women actual dates after 5-10 minute conversations or do you warm em up on ig or something?
Switching gears in life from looksmaxxing to wealth creation. Eager to hear what you guys think.
So, a bit of background:
I grew up as the short skinny kid and that affected my self esteem quite a bit as a kid so I started training when I was 15. I’m 25 now.
At this point I’m quite satisfied with my physique, looks, and self-confidence. Getting girls has become easy and fun.
However, I am broke.
I’ve always been a high-achiever if I put my mind to something, I’ve:
Built my body from the ground upQualified for the youth olympics at 15Cured my “incurable” insomniaBuilt my social skills and self-confidence from far below the average person’s baseline.
Not trying to brag here, this was to illustrate that I look at my accomplishments as small stacks of proof that make me believe I can create wealth if I apply my mind to it.
I grew up quite comfortable so building wealth was never a priority to me.
It is now.Therefore, I’m hoping, those of you are doing well, can share what values like speed, avoiding perfectionism, etc. served you best when creating wealth.
Additionally, if after reviewing my background, you have any wisdom you think can specifically be applied to my situation, that would be helpful too.
In the past ten years, what energy did you invest into your education, employment, and professional skills development?

If I have a preference for American girls, am I fucked?
I know the general consensus is that Eastern European, Latam girls are better as long term prospects.
However, I can’t seem to enjoy non-American girls as much. They’re hotter on average, no doubt. But at an equal level of hotness, the American girl country girl archetype seems to be my preference. I don’t know why.
I know hoeflation, liberalism, and other cultural influences have turned a considerable amount of American women into godless hoes.
But, I believe if any girl (American or not) believes she’s maximized her hypergamy with you (AF not BB), she’ll be a joy to have around and her new-agey cultural ideologies will be naturally mitigated.
At least that’s been my experience with one American girl I’ve dated lol.
If we choose carefully, and the girl believes her hypergamy is maximized, do you believe it is worth it to LTR American girls if that’s your preference?
Read More@Redpillray dude, vasectomy and fuck away. You are still pedestalizing women, and you are in dangerous ground.
In short, no race of women around the earth is worth marrying, many girls are worth LTRing if you can avoid getting her pregnant and have the mind not to make sacrifices, many more to short-term for sex.
