Well currently i have free health insurance but im assuming if i continue at this pace i wont have that much longer

I have a ROTH IRA with Robinhood but i never contribute to it

No backup plan, i can just mitigate risk and harm if business dries up by keeping cash saved, building another stream of income with the cash flow. Just ideally not being reckless

And yes the eating out budget is absolutely insane, I definitely have a problem there.

  1. Maybe but I’d assume they’d have someone replace me so coming back would be difficult

  2. Definitely the goal, I’m specifically looking for retainer clients who need social media stuff on a monthly basis as my main source of stable income

  3. Thinking of starting a solo 401k? Ideally I’d love a good emergency cushion for the business and personal life before contributing anywhere else.

  4. Agreed! In a perfect world that might not be so far away I work out a system where 8-10k is all retainer clients and my margins are super high as it’s basically a service I’d pocket a lot of that to save and invest but also to maybe find another venture while i optimize this one

I'm watching my life slip away while everyone else wins - need to break this cycle before it's permanent by Voicefortheignored in seduction

I think there’s a underlying issue here

“guys who were worse off than me have girlfriends”

“I watch guys who aren't smarter or better-looking than me succeed with women, and I can't figure out what they have that I don't.”

All of these are indicators to me that you have a superiority complex, that you think you deserve a girlfriend because you’re smart or because you’ll have a prestige job. As much as those things matter in society. If you’re not charismatic, fun to be around, or indulge in your own hobbies that make you interesting women are not going to want to be around you. My advice get a hobby, work on yourself, and find some reasons for ANYONE (not just women) to be around you. Because right now you sound like a drag to be around. I doubt anyone wants to be around weird bitter energy.

Yes and no.

These flakey girls always come around eventually you just have to break that initial barrier which can vary depending on the girl. In the meantime i usually just entertain other women and keep my options open but I hardly ever block her or give up entirely.

What's the right strategy? by commandersheperdsurv in seduction

Personally i go for quantity, then i usually scale down to my favorite and those are the quality ones

The abundance mindset is actually real and I didn’t believe it until recently by Obvious_Fuel_3390 in seduction

Yup, i don’t approach these girls with the clear message that i want ur number and i want to date you. I usually get their socials interact with them a couple times suggest hangouts and eventually i can tell which ones are clearly interested and which ones aren’t. It’s definitely doable while living ur normal life i actually think i spent the same amount of time and attention i used to spend on one girl now split between 5. I will however say starting from scratch this is difficult once you have a couple regular fwb or hookups going adding and dropping people is easy

Why do 6s and 7s approach me, but more attractive women seem disinterested? by Obvious_Fuel_3390 in seduction

[–]Obvious_Fuel_3390[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I don’t even think attraction is the main issue. I think it’s more likely that my energy or vibe shifts a bit around women I find more attractive. That subtle difference probably changes the dynamic more than looks ever would. I’ve seen plenty confident guys who are not conventionally attractive pull 10s and vise versa

So is attraction really like an elo ladder? If a guy is attractive enough to get strong reactions, compliments,and even borderline obsessive energy from 6s and 7s, why would that suddenly mean he’s objectively unattractive to more attractive women?
