Does anyone have pride anymore?

Does anyone have any pride? The majority of people seem like they have everything handed to them. I’m 26, broke with a college degree. I work my ass of 6 days a week and see all these people my age with big ass bank accounts etc. does anyone want to earn their rewards through hard work anymore? Damn!

The town I live in has many well-off people living in it–a lot of these high school kids have brand new Mercedes purchased for them by their parents. At first it annoys me, then it makes me smile because I know they are going to be crippled going into the real world with no motivation to become good at anything.

So many of them go to college on their parents’ dime and just get wasted every day until they get thrown out. There is a clear pattern where the kids who have the most done for them by their parents fail the hardest.

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you into something else is the greatest accomplishment." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

I thought so too, then it dawned, it’s all borrowed money and when it runs low they just get another loan. eventually it all comes crashing down.

Ah things …. pretty things ….. stuff …. items …. gifts

Lets hope they keep coming …. from others of course 🙂

Dont worry … keep looking these people …. as the crash approaches.

The horror ….. the joy

Try teaching classrooms full of people with that attitude. I did it for several years and I thought I was going to go nuts. Had I stayed in that job for longer than I did, I’m sure I would have become an alcoholic.

Being in a relationship with someone who had that attitude was bad enough. “but we can get it nowwwww” glad I got out of that before the gold hoop of doom appeared.

A lot of of those kids that you see with nice cars finance them and spend every penny they make on them. I know a lot of guys like that, we’re all in our early 20’s. I have another friend who works two jobs like I do, and instead of investing his income he spends it on his 350z. Sure, it’s slammed and has a built motor and does great burnouts. But in the end it’s just another toy, that he’s spent well over 20 grand on.

The point I’m trying to make is that a lot of people in the current generation are totally blind toward the concept of anything but immediate gratification, and so waste their money on frivolous pursuits.

Don’t worry about it. There will always be idiots that blow their money on nice things, they’re just removing themselves from the financial gene pool. In the end, it means us MGTOW will have less competition in the financial sector.

I knew a carpenter who bought houses and drove a junky pickup truck. His rental income is larger than what he makes as a carpenter. He is set for life, rusty pickup and all.

When I was 27 and broke with a degree, I felt the same way. I was p~~~ed that all the blue collar guys were banking, buying boats and atv’s, while I was struggling. So I said f~~~ it and went to work as a roughneck for 62k/year. Since I had a degree, I quickly moved up, and now I am petroleum engineer by trade and title. Sure, it would have been smarter to get the petro eng degree, but I loved philosophy.

The point is, f~~~ what degree you have, go blue collar and work into the better jobs. Once your foot is in the door and you know what you’re doing; they don’t care what or where your degree is from, they only care that you have one. It’s a 1-up on the competition. Sure, it’d be great to study philosophy professionally, but I have read more and studied more philosophy since graduating that I ever did while an undergrad. And yes, I am very proud of myself, my path, and my success.
