I actually closely resemble that dude in the meme photo.

Anyone else fit the stereotype? Feels pretty good.

Do you really think incels are jealous of men who have been divorced? You men who are on your second wife are what make incels like me think "at least I'm not some divorced stepdad on his second wife". We look at you with pity, probably more pity than you look at us with. Nobody, and I mean nobody, is jealous of you.

IBEW electrician here.

Feels good bro. Nice pension and pay $1000 a month into annuity plan. Max out my ROTH IRA every year. Still have plenty of disposable income to play in crypto.

How’s work in your state? Your books empty?

A bit slow here but I’m busy as a foreman for a small shop.

>>10507270

you're comparing someone who has extensive job experience vs someone with zero. At least with the divorced stepdad there was at least one women who felt he was worth committing to a long term with him. The incel is single because no woman wants him.

How is there only two choices? I want to get married but I'm also terrified of getting screwed in a divorce.
btw not an incel if that makes any difference

Not always the case. I know several incels who just didn't want the complications that a relationship brings.

Everybody makes fun of the 30-year-old Boomer, and yet he always seems so happy and full of life.

Maybe he's the one who has it figured out, and we don't.

Probably because the main reason people stay thin these days is for looks. OP has a wife and the money to keep her love, so he doesn't care for staying in shape.

Is it too late to become an electrician as a 29yo boomer? Let's say i could fund any qualifications myself and would work on the cheap to get experience.

>> No.10510023

Technically you can become one at any age. But it's not going to be high paying.
