    Dear Men, fellow MGTOW’s,

    Each week I make at least 1 video (two if I have the time), where I give to all men their needed uprise :

    I released some information this week on consumerism and how it can seriously damage the life and options of a man :

    It is true that the most consummers are women, easy preys. Men are collateral buyers and scammed by this environment. But we also have men falling prey themselves out of desperation and out of boredom into it.

    Some tips :
    1) Wait several days or weeks before going again to the store, see if you still want to buy with the same intensity…

    2) Try to analyse why you want to buy and what use will you get ?

    3)Practice some spiritual, yoga stuff : life is not only buying things or even putting too much meaning in them.
    Even strip naked you still are yourself. Your big house, your big screen are pointless in front of the Universe, that’s a given.

    4) Compare various models, cheaper can be better.

    5) Allocate a specific monthly budget to spend : It will force you to postpone or change your plans. Lower the bar as months go by and you will be liberated from materialistic addictions.

    What are your thoughts about this topic and these tips ? Thanks for your next comments below

    Kr,

    I got too much s~~~. Most of it was for making money and investments, I’ve been down sizing for years! Still have years to go before I have everything I don’t want or need liquidated! But at the same time I’m buying more s~~~ to expand my new business!

    I don’t buy stupid s~~~ and wear my working cloths until they have holes in them! I push my vehicles past 200,000 with proper maintenance. I firmly believe a stitch in time saves nine!

    My favorite pieces of advice are:

    1) Know your needs from your wants and do not turn your wants into your needs;
    2) Delaying gratification always pays dividends;
    3) Wear it out before replacing or upgrading;
    4) Clutter is a clue to re-examine your spending;
    5) Possessions own you; and finally,
    6) You cannot buy your happiness or self-esteem, so don’t try.

    I have ditched a lot of things, but I have admit, books are the hardest. I own a Kindle. I still like my hard copies.

    I believe a man only owns what he can carry at a dead run, and as anti materialistic as I try to be, books are my Achilles Heel.

    I don't hate women. I just feel better when they're not around.

    Some people are desperate to distract themselves from having to deal with their problems or past traumas. Addictions of any kind, including consuming, can be great distractions.

    Self-improvement is my religion. Sovereignty is my god.

    One of the funniest ironies of MGTOW is that we are typically some of the least materialistic people out there…and yet we are by far the wealthiest, statistically speaking.

    If you think about it, it actually makes sense though. Since we don’t have any female parasites taking/spending our money on all sorts of stupid, frivolous s~~~, we have a lot of it…and we also don’t spend a ton of money on s~~~ to impress women, like expensive cars, clothes, accessories, etc.

    The way i see it, going MGTOW is by far the wisest financial decision a man can make in his lifetime. You basically get to choose between having your life wrecked by women and a gynocentric misandrist society, or you can turn your back on both and enjoy an early retirement instead. Easy choice for me.
