Both betas and alphas go to med school.
[β]WhorehouseVet11 points12 points13 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Where is this faggot bullshit that making money = betabux come from? If that's the case, then Donald Trump is probably the biggest betabux.
Seriously though, you make money for yourself so that you can lead a great life, buy things you need/want, travel when you want, and not have to worry about whether you will have money when your rent is due. Betabux only comes in when you have zero alpha qualities and you're only using your money to attract women.
Making money should be everyone's top priority when starting in the work force. I will copy and past Illimitable Man's quote here:
"More money means more opportunity, more opportunity means more growth. Money is the single most powerful non-sentient object in existence; it is a decimalised measurement of objective power that each and every life needs to continue to exist."
OP, only go to med school if you love medicine, you will find the end rewarding, financially and personally.

This is one of the hardest pills to swallow for a lot of guys here. You can't have all your bases covered.
What is a women's instinct when she learns a man has money, regardless of how "alpha" his behaviours are? To tie him down. Even if she is attracted to him for other reasons, that thought weighs heavily in her subconscious. She is much more careful about what she says/does for fear of losing him, and all the resources he brings.
What is a women's instinct when she sees the "alpha" struggling rapper with the huge arms? To fuck him there and then. It's pure unrestrained sexual passion. What does she have to lose? Just more sexual thrill with him, he has no resources.

Which is why you never reveal how much money you have, just never have it be a problem and make her pay at least 1/2 of everything.

Walking down the street: beta or alpha?

Eating a bagel, beta or alpha?
[–]cookin_breakfast1 point 9 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
Street: alpha. bagel: beta if plain.
[β]NeoreactionSafe4 points5 points6 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The beta only becomes a "certainty" when a woman comes along and you place her above you in a psychological and power perspective.
You could be a doctor and have tons of pussy which you never marry or get pregnant. Doing that retains your masculine "power" by default and keeps you on the Alpha side not the beta.
All the problems enter because of the legal system.
Create a child out of wedlock? - Instant Child Support.
Actually marry the woman? - Add on Alimony and other cash prizes.
Most of your problems will come as you get into situations later on.
Med School likely is a great place to sample free pussy.

a workplace doesn't define your mental status
[β]cookin_breakfast 1 points1 points1 points 9 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
It doesn't define it, but it can definitely impact it. Grinding away alone in a cubicle on spreadsheets vs dealing with constant pressure to call the shots in a high stress environment have two totally different impacts.
[β]ArthurCaine-1 points0 points1 point 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
the ability to never give up isn't a secondary option, its a rational instinct
Lol what the fuck are you talking about? Challenging yourself everyday is bound to make you stronger than wasting away in some dead end job. I'm not saying a person in a dead end job can't be a strong willed person, I'm just saying certain workplace environments can shape that easier than others. I don't see why workplace environments would be excluded from the experiences a human face that make them who they are?

WTF... this is just πππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππ
are you trolling or really so insecure? You need to come on a sub to ask permission to make a major career decision and based on whether it's "alpha" or "beta" seriously if your already so concerned with what people think then making major decisions ain't for you
It's a decision that's been made long ago. I'm just defending the career path against the betabux argument that I've seen it subject to. The "red pill" aspect of the career choice is only a small part of why I chose it, taking things into account like my temperament, academic achievement, personal experiences with healthcare, and manual dexterity weighed more into it. I just wanted to throw my two cents in about how it's ability to create confident people, and not just about maxing out the bank account to get betabucked. By the way, get the fuck out of here with your 14 year old girl emojis by the way you little bitch.
[β]Momo_dollar0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
I'm not the who ended up doubting myself because of shit a bunch of incels with no money or girls typed online and then posted trying to reasssure / validate myself and my decision. π
Lol why the fuck not, that's what the internet is for: validation. You are arguing with me over this stupid point to maybe get upvotes for what? Validation. So pulling that card about me being insecure is retarded when you bring up no actual points to discuss the idea I brought up, and just attack it ad hominem style. Get fucked with your gay ass little emoji faces, I bet you text that shit to your girl at night when she's at her place getting fucked by chad.
[β]Momo_dollar0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Your truth was expressed in you original post. The tough guy typing seems forced and is embarrassing to yourself.
Not too smart are you? Would someone thinking about votes call (without clarifying the type) people a bunch of broke incels? Ohh yeah.., almost forgot .... πππππππ€£
[β]Ehcadroj5 points6 points7 points 9 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Go to med school to help people not be a maggot status seeker. I already know you're not getting in.
lol I'm already out and in a specialty you'd never be able to touch. Killed step 1 brah

I got a P.H.D. in Your mom
I hear that's not really a competitive program nowadays though
[β]Ehcadroj0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I did it just for the title, I wanted it for my collection. You still have to address me as doctor.
[β]ShadowOfAnIdea2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Med school is an academic institution, not a male organism. Thus, it is neither alpha nor beta.
That being said, the med school population has more alphas per capita than most other settings. That's because admission and class rank are highly competitive, and the curriculum and career it prepares you for demand a high level of focus, logical/analytic thinking, social networking, and grit. These are motivated people competing for huge paychecks for important work in a position with an innately higher SMV.

How is it even a matter of alpha/beta? I mean, you could be in med school and be pretty beta & bland, but also could be a type a, outgoing individual.. It's what you make of it, obviously having a high status career will give you good standing in the world. If you do well in med school, develop confidence as a result of you getting comfortable with being a doctor & leading people, lift & have unique experiences like traveling, having fun, banging lots of women then I'd say med school is pretty alpha. On the other hand if you just grind through school and don't develop your personality, do nothing all day and don't develop connections/friendships with future doctors & slay some girls then it's pretty beta.
[β]throwaway_pua1821 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
What's the point of this post?
A true "red pill" lifestyle revolves around financial freedom.
The ability to do what you want and not having to answer to, or be reliant on others for financial security.
Being a Doctor is a high status career. Great. Now what are you going to do with it?
Confidence, charisma, social influence and power are traits that can be learned. They do tie in with status, but only if you are actively working on those traits. Some people buy into the societal role "Oh he's a Doctor or Lawyer" so it does make it easier for those unaware of TRP.
All in all, it's what you make of it. There are meek doctors who call the shots at work, but are beta bitches at home to their wives. There are alpha doctors who are outgoing, and have tons of social connections. It's not the job, it's the individual.

I reckon your ok just remember a robot will eventually take your job so do med school but learn computer programming on the side.
As much hype that's going around with AI, I'd be worried more about every other job disappearing. High skilled jobs like law, medicine, and engineering are probably the last of society's jobs to be officially replaced.
[β]Jyontaitaa0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Only the top 5% in those professions will survive. They will end up being heavily involved in the AI development. The remaining 95% will fall by the wayside or be pushed into technician roles with very different pay scales.
[β]Lambdal70 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Med school will definitely give you high status, but don't do it to compensate for your lack of alphaness or confidence. In other words, don't become one of these try hard alpha faggots.
Instead be the very professional, smart, caring doctor. This sets you apart from all the other doctors who just don't give a shit about their patients and will give you more pussy that you can count. You also need to escalate obviously, status only gives you so much.
[β]SigmundRoidd0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Don't go to med school.
We already churn out enough shitty doctors.
One more moron thinking: "beta Vs alpha" crap isn't what we need. Alpha is a mindset, a very hard mindset for those that it doesn't come naturally to. These guys them categorize clothes, careers, even fuckin foods as alpha or beta.
You either get this or you dont.
[β]36virgins 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Are you a resident? Think about the commitment to studying you put in during M1 and M2. Then think about the commitment you put into rotations AND studying for shelf exams during M3 and M4. Also think about having to get blamed and yelled at for a lot of stuff that may not totally be your fault during the rotations. Med school could honestly turn an alpha into a beta given the heavy amount of operant and classical conditioning that happens as part of the hidden curriculum. Feel free to rebut me if you can.
[β]tortillastomper0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Dude, if you're going to worry about what's beta or alpha, you ain't alpha. You might have a little power in your own little medical world but when you come outside that hospital, you go back to being a little bitch when you run into real motherfuckers. No matter how badass you think you are there's always someone who can put your ass in its place. How about being a real "alpha" by being the guy people look up to out of respect because you do what you say, make solid decisions, and provide real leadership instead of becoming Chad.
I'm not saying I am alpha, I'm saying going to med school/residency has the ability to instill alpha traits i.e. confidence more so than other career tracks that are available to your average STEM academic over-achiever.
[β]tortillastomper0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It can, but so does any other career. Working retail can do that because you do have to put yourself out there and confidence builds because you talk to people all day long. Sure you don't make good money like a doctor would but you still learn these "alpha " lessons. Basically, do your job like you give a damn, no matter what it is, earn the respect of your colleagues and you will be "alpha". What I think, is you're humble bragging a little. It's okay though, I think you should brag a little, you busted your ass through med school and residency. That's worthy of a little bragging in my book. Keep kicking ass, man.
