Winning the Game of Life MGTOW Style

[QuellParticipant 2538]

The true definition of winning the game of life isn’t keeping up with the Jones’ but rather completely being able to disassociate from the Jones’ altogether. The Jones’ are the problem!

We men run ourselves into an early grave to earn the chance to drive a Mercedes or buy a mansion. Why? Men seem to be happiest with a sandwich, a cold beer and a nice nap. We strive valiantly for luxury so that we may give it to women. Yet women do not return the favor anymore.

The older I get the more I realize that a smart man looks at what everyone else is doing, finds fault in it and simply chooses a less beaten down path.

There is no value is running yourself ragged working and striving for some unforeseen carrot down the road. Even those who are extremely wealthy are stressed out all the time because they have to constantly monitor and maintain their status of wealth.

Monk mode might be a bit extreme for most but I believe there really is a happy medium by have no debt, maintaining a modest home, creating a stream of sustainable income to enjoy a stress free lifestyle. Honestly, working 20 hours a week at a stress free job or retiring in a cheap country like Costa Rica seems like the way to go.

I agree. I see guys doing this s~~~ at my job…its insane to know so many people who are pulling in six figures and still living paycheck to paycheck. In the end what do you get for it? A lot of big purchases, like fancy cars and a big house just lead to higher taxes and maintenance costs…so you work hard to buy nice things just so you can work even harder to maintain them and pay more taxes? Yeah…f~~~ that.

Most people don’t think long term. For example…I could go finance a 60,000 dollar car, or I could pass on the car and probably cut 5 years off my retirement date instead. If your boss told you he’d give you a 60,000 dollar car or let you go on vacation for the next 5 years…I think almost everyone would take the vacation time, yet so many people opt for the car because the deal we get in reality is the 60k car right now or an extra 5 years vacation 20-30 years down the road after all the extra money you saved has been compounding.

You could be dead tomorrow. Do what you can with what you’ve got till you up and leave this place. F~~~ what is “normal” it’s a scam

I worked with guy who made $900k a year and spent $900k a year. Dude was literally living paycheck to paycheck. His wife spent it all. Every day I’d hear him on phone speaker screaming at wife “No!! For the last time!!! I am not buying your lazy god damn sister a f~~~ing condo on the beach!!! That lazy bitch can work if she wants it!!”

Every day was like that and wife must have won cause dude worked like 80 hours a week yet was miserable 24/7 yet pulling close to a million per year

Wilkins Micawber put it best: Copperfield, at present, I have nothing to bestow but advice. Still, that advice is so far worth taking. I have never taken it myself, and am the miserable creature you behold. Young friend, I counsel you: annual income, 20 pounds. Annual expenditure, 19 pounds. Result? Happiness. Annual income, 20 pounds. Annual expenditure, 21 pounds. Result? Misery. Farewell, Copperfield.”

Do not date. Do not impregnate. Do not co-habitate. Above all, do not marry. Reclaim and never again surrender your personal sovereignty.

[WanderingMGTOWParticipant 288]

Agreed. Even though I make decent money and have very little debt I decided to move into a travel trailer and park it for almost free on a friend’s property.

I don’t want to move up any higher at my job, I really like my current workload and level of responsibility but I’m growing by pivoting a little and setting myself up to be self employed whenever I feel like it.

When I was married I had a McMansion and all the debt that came with it. I was always stressed about $ and now I’m not.

Women will no doubt reject me because I don’t have a house and a pile of s~~~ I don’t need. ZFG.

F~~~ the Jones’s.
They are broke ass bitches.

Their entire existence is work, drama and stuff.

Find your passion, develop a plan to realize that passion and then live your life. It really is a simple as that. Modern civilization and culture tends to over think everthing.

K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple Stupid.

I’ve met the Jones’, they are jerks. I see some of these husband/fathers at my church. They are my age or younger yet act, dress, and conduct themselves like a middle aged soccer mom. Then I come along, I’m a devoted father, but they have nothing to talk with me about. We share nothing in common. I’m devoted to my child and The Lord. Nobody knows if I’m dating a new woman every week or I haven’t dated in years. They don’t know if I make just at the poverty line or 6 figures.

It’s all because I’M NOT THE CAR I DRIVE, THE HOUSE I LIVE IN, THE CLOTHES I WEAR, OR THE WOMEN I DATE.

I am a damn good dad, though.

Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk midnight choir, I have tried in my way to be free.

The definition of power is having choices. The ability to choose ur lifestyle.

[Secret Agent MGTOWParticipant 22520]

One can sum it up this way.

Women covet everything. Men of course, could also, many do, many get greedy. But all women covet. They are takers. All of them. Few are true Makers that can make an honest living with what they can do. Even stuff that they used to do like cooking, that has sharply dropped in the women of the last 50 years.

When you are not yoked to someone who covets everything (which is tied into their perpetual complaining and unhappiness), you can actually enjoy life because you are not looking at what everyone else has, you can enjoy what you have.

Women want everything, but want responsibility and accountability for nothing.

[FunInTheSunParticipant 8283]

I’ve mentioned this idea about HAVING OPTIONS several times, and I think it’s worth repeating again. If a man has options, he’s empowered. People can s~~~ test him or try to shame him, and he can just smile and walk away without trying to prove anything.

If you’re really good at your job, you can get another job if you don’t like your paycheck, your boss, or your co-workers. If you get in an argument with your girlfriend, and she calls you a bunch of nasty names, you just get out your “black book,” call another lady on your list, and f~~~ her instead. If someone steals your car, you have another car in your garage to drive while you wait for your insurance money.

My version of winning: I have my ranch (so I don’t have to deal with next door neighbors), I have sports cars, I have a house and a garage for all my stuff, and a bank account with a lot of money. I’m in a situation where I own a percentage of businesses, and people are working hard to provide dividends for me.

I’m not worried about getting fired from a job, going to college or a trade school, getting dumped by a girlfriend, bills, taxes, or the next president. I’m totally liberated from the f~~~ing rat race.

I can go to a foreign country, sleep in a hotel room, get out of bed when I feel like it, drink beer, walk around the town, get a handjob from a sexy woman in a massage parlor, squeeze her t~~~, take a shower, eat grilled steak, drink another beer, play my guitar, watch a movie, and go to sleep. Then do it again the next day! FREEDOM!

I’m working hard to gain money and assets, and I’m keeping that stuff for myself. When I retire, I’m going to set up a lawn chair next to a freeway and sit back, and laugh at all the people stuck in traffic on their way to some s~~~ty job.

I spend a bit much, have got some self restraint to get, but it’s a process. Plan to get s~~~faced this weekend and still make rent. Not exactly looking out for my health right this moment but I don’t have the energy to care all that much.

Used to base my happiness on the external. Still sort of do, though it’s shifted from things I had little control over to stuff that I do, for the most part. Thing is, I realized I was just as miserable after I got my job and when girls started paying more attention to me. Everything comes with their own burdens. And even then, things like my hobbies do get a bit stale. Learning to enjoy the small stuff is one thing, but the real key to a good life is internal. At the very least, taking myself out of the rat race has lifted a huge weight off of me.

Could get cheaper rent, cut internet again. Gym, food are not negotiable expenses.

Meh, i’m in it for me man, it’s always been that way. I don’t have any intentions on giving it all to a woman in the future.

When I have a pen in my hands, it's lethal.
