I want you to imagine a scenario. Where you own your dream house. You have a great wife. You have millions of dollars liquid in the bank and several different investments that are appreciating in value or even paying you every month (like a bunch of managed rental properties). You've "made it" and you never ever have to wagecuck ever again.

What would you do with all that free time? Would you really be doing hours of "podcasts" on YouTube to promote yourself and brag about your lifestyle? Would you feel the need to shill some bullshit sponsors either? Probably not. You'd be trying to make up for all that lost time doing things you actually wanted to do for years.

It's very easy to create the impression online that you've made it. Lots of things like the car, house, plane can all be rented. Ever wonder why the interviewer isn't demanding to see solid proof of the big claims of the person they're interviewing? Because the interviewer themselves is also exaggerating their net worth and also thinks by interviewing someone of supposedly high net worth is also good for them (they can "build their profile" and put clickbait shit in the video titles/thumbnails to make more money).

The average retard is wasting 2-3 hours a day listening to these pretenders. About 10% max of that content is actually useful and came from other people. You could just be listening to quality audiobooks that cover the basics of finance, sales, investing, small business etc. which have more higher signal to noise.

Adjust your time horizon. Have a plan for the next 5-10 years of your life and stop wasting your time looking for "hacks" or "shortcuts" or "one simple trick". Those people are making more money from getting you to click their videos or buying their courses/books than they are with their meme advice.

OR, just a thought
It could be that what's been fucking us this whole time is everybody obsessing over a piece of paper/digit on a screen, and forgetting that money needs to be a physical commodity in order to prevent this kind of nonsense.
I figure this is a lot like finance, where something is ready to be bought when everybody gets very bearish and sentiment is really shit.
Sentiment is shit, probably not as bad as it will be because things aren't even that bad yet, but i assume at some point we will actually start healing.
People realizing things are bullshit.. that's healing.
We don't need India and China to produce all of our stuff. We can do it ourselves, we just need to unfuck ourselves and that will take a decade or two unless socialism just wins.

Nice girls like successful men. Dating requires time and money - something that isn’t readily available to most wagecucks. Drinking is expensive. All of these faggot things you mentioned are all materialistic avenues. The best “treat” in life is to get to explore life on your own terms, and this is far easier done with money.

If people talk about crypto, listen, but don't blindly follow their investments. Gain insights on how to invest and explore independently. Consider diversifying; options like HBAR, MATIC, XTP, CSPR, LINK, and others could offer better opportunities. NFA anon.

Divorce rate is around 50-60 percent even if you marry you will die alone and grow old alone.
After 5 years of marriage most of the ones that survive divorce report dead bedrooms.

All of those guys have one thing in common: they are willing to tell people what they want to hear.

It's called "polite society" for a reason. If you're not willing to lie profusely you expect to enter into it? People ultimately value good emotions, and the people who get rich are people who make a habit of toxic positivity. Everything you say has to be spun to be positive or at least neutral or you will fail to move up in the ranks in any endeavor you do. Resume? Lie. Pitching idea to potential investors? Lie. Selling a product? Lie.

Would you rather be true to yourself or be rich and make a habit of obfuscating the truth that no one wants to hear? That's why we're all here after all, right? This is the one way to get rich without having to lie.
