I see becoming financially secure as a solution to a major problem everyone faces in life. Becoming wealthy just means you are more capable of living out your life on your terms and not some bosses.

Whether the actions you take as a result make you 'happy' or not are squarely on you.

No, it will make me irrevocably happy not having to work. During quarantine I was sitting on my ass playing vidya and shitposting not having to drag myself out of bed, deal with dumb asses on the road, and forced into a prison of 4 walls for 8+ hours and then having to drive back and I was happier than I'd been in fucking years. So having enough money to not work will make me extraordinarily happy.

I guarantee the only good thing about that girl would be having sex with her. Any other interaction would most likely be really unpleasant and she would make a terrible mother. Even sex would be unpleasant now that I think about it. Blonde white women are unironically not even worth the effort to have sex with.

Not having to go to work ever again would improve my life immeasurably. Anyone that says money can't buy happiness is just coping because they know they'll never be able to retire. So if never had to another day in my life at 30, I would be absolutely euphoric. Throw in a boat, snowmobiles, rabbit farm, a restaurant my gf could run(shes a good cook), and remodeling my moms house, and the concern that wouldn't be happy is ludicrous.

Yes. I know for a fact it won't make me happy. I was completely broke in 2017 and was lucky enough to not get rich, but make enough money to live for 15+ years without working. I had a trading strategy that would make me 5 or 10k a day (doesn't work anymore) sometimes and I felt nothing from it.
I actually became incredibly depressed because my life felt so meaningless. I missed being in school doing research, working toward a goal that felt important, even if I was broke. I ended up basically loosing my mind. I would only sleep for 30 minute periods as to not be off charts for too long, then my hair started falling out and I as constantly throwing up from the constant trading. Then I cracked and lost it all and I was happier at the end.
If I was given 2 million dollars tomorrow, I'd still live alone, have no friends, no gf. I could quit my wagie job but I'd still have a meaningless life. I think I'd go back to school and get my PhD as it eliviate the financial worry I had before when I decided not too do it

define rich? I have a net worth over 2 million, but I don't feel rich. I can afford a nice house and a nice car, but once I get those things my life is no different than anybody else's. The things that make life worth living aren't even that expensive. Women don't care about money as much as you think, and the one's that do are typically not great people. I have more money than I will ever need, but I wouldn't even consider myself rich. I've learned that your health/family/friends is more important. workout and hang out with friends/family will make you more happy than being rich.

>Women don't care about money as much as you think,
My experiences with them pretty much prove the opposite. Having money isn't a guarantee that they'll flock to you, but not having money is a guarantee that only the dumbest and most obnoxious will barely tolerate you while constantly crushing your soul in their belief that they will motivate you to go struggle harder to get them off your back.

Mostly they seem to want status. When I was a medical student I had no shortage of women willing to date a guy who was going to become a rich doctor. When I dropped out and dove headfirst into software, I couldn't get a date with anyone because "he's a nerd". When I moved to Seattle, and suddenly computers became a giant wealth machine, some of them would date me again, but it was really quite shocking how many would predicate that willingness on whether they thought I was going to become a Microsoft multimillionaire or stay working at Boeing. And then the dot.com collapse hit and I couldn't get a job anywhere and my girlfriend at the time dumped me because "you're not an executive and you never will be one, and I only date executive type men."

>and the one's that do are typically not great people.
Well, there's that too, but that seems to be 99% of them nowadays, certainly all that are available after they get past the prime marriage years of 17-25. The good ones got married and are permanently unavailable now; the shitty ones just keep riding the cock carousel to get men to pay for the lifestyles they want.

80% of divorces are initiated by women, and the vast majority of divorces are "caused" by financial issues. The vast majority of women aren't going to sit around and be happy just because you're in love with them. Not all of them want diamonds, champagne, and private jet flights to the Riviera, but they all want wealth and status.

the whole point of money is the safety net giving you mental freedom to pursue anything you want
muh house / muh car / muh consoomer is tier1
