When I've finished Kant 's Critique of Pure Reason I will dive right into World as Will and Representation.

Read Parerga und Paralipomena at a very young age and finally I'm mature enough to get into the meat and bones of it all.

He was handsome and he's said to have been quite the charmeur in his young years. Throughout his life he never stopped exploring new territories, art, enjoying good food and whatnot, ...

At least bother to read the Wikipedia page you fucking faggot.

you actually don't need all that much to read WWR. I just finished it today and I have only read the greeks, the bible and descartes.
Obviously, it is ideal to have read all philosophy up to schopenhauer (I'm very excited to re-read him when I finally read kant), but schoppy's writing is VERY clear, he repeats himself quite a bit and when he references/quotes other philosophers, he usually gives a 'quick rundown'.
It's an amazing work though.

You don't "learn" from philosophers. You skim their opinions (which range from banal to incoherent) and then namedrop them in conversation to sound smart.

He is the king of the ugly, their paramount saint. Everything he says is true if you are born without chad genetics. However, antinatalism and women hate and cynicism don't hold up if you are gifted and the world makes itself easy for you.
