What are your "hopes and dreams"? What do YOU want to do for the future? What way are YOU in particular going? We're all MGTOW, but we're not going one way. Anyone care to share?

I have made a thoughtful conscious decision to sit on my ass, play video games, watch porn and smoke weed.

My long term hopes and dreams are to create a business, become wealthy and be financially independent. Along with that I want to be fluent in three languages: Thai, Russian and Mandarin.

Right now I'm focusing on learning Thai and life skills and developing myself before I resume tertiary study (2019) in Psychology and Computer Science (or Neuroscience). I'm also focusing on paying off my debt before I leave the country to live in Thailand.

I want to finish my PhD in the next two years, work 12 hrs per day every day for the next 5 years as a postdoctoral scientist, make progress in a field, get hired as faculty at Harvard or Stanford or equivalent, set up my own lab, secure funding, teach future scientists, never leave lab work for managerial/political/departmental responsibilities.

Already did it. Was a mainframe computer analyst/programmer/database administrator/EDI specialist consultant for 20 years. Retired at 42, built my dream house. Went back to school at 52 to get my nursing license. I'm debt free and my retirement is fully funded outside of social security.

Since I started this monster, time to finish it.

What do you want to do? What do you hope for, what is something that you dream of and strive for?

I want to do many things, carpentry in my youth, be a crime scene cleaner around age 30 or so, start a few businesses, by the time i'm 30-40 I should have enough money to make this kind of thing happen.

I don't want to start a business where I open up a restaurant, a website or some consulting business.. I want a business that can actually work. I don't want to innovate and bring something BRAND new to the table (in the case of Steve Jobs or Elon Musk or something), I don't want to reinvent the wheel so to speak.

But I do want to give people jobs, give people HOPE by way of said employment. I don't want to get rich and have a mansion, I don't. That's not bad to want that kind of thing but it just seems empty to me. Pointless.

Why have all that money when you'll have no one to spend it with or enjoy it with?

Besides, my reasoning for wanting to start a business lies not in making a boat load of money or having social status. It is in having the opportunity to be my own boss (cliche I know) as well as having the honor of creating jobs, contributing to our economy.. in REAL time.

Not just by going to slave away in a cubicle for 8 hours and not really see the fruits nor effects of my labor.

I want to start 3 or 4 businesses in total.

I'm not one of those "entrepreneurial let's grind, get up early, read books all the time, all about self improvement" type guys.

When I get my business(es) off the ground, the first thing that i'll ensure happens is that we remain a private business, a small scale business. Next, I'll ensure we don't keep workers perpetually part time or on temp. And lastly: i'll ensure that pity profit isn't placed above common sense or morality.

After I have 3-4 (maybe even 5 heck) businesses all up and running, i'll likely be in my 50's or so. A bit too late to start investing for retirement; but i'll pickup a little something along the way.

I'll probably start investing just for fun from about age 50 up until I kick the bucket. By age 50, I should have enough money put back to keep me living well into old age.

I've been told that investing shouldn't be fun, but I beg to differ. I don't expect to be Warren Buffet; but investing just seems fun to me. It's pretty interesting if I say so myself.

Besides, what else am I going to do with all my extra cash? Let it rot due to inflation? Spend it all? I elect 'neither'.

(NOTE: People keep telling me I need therapy, I'm starting to think I may very well be a bit nuts. Weeeelllll shit.)

Should've studied economics all throughout school.. maybe I would've actually gone onto college then, maybe would have gotten decent grades and kept a clean disciplinary record.

As for what will I invest in.. I was thinking about just keeping it simple: treasury bonds if anything. I'll stay AWAY from the stock market. Instead opting for Forex (currencies), commodities, that sort of thing.

Outside of financial related stuff.. I really want to build my own house, no mortgage.. just building it with my bear hands. I want it to be a civil war era style home, I want to keep my expenses to a BEAR minimum as well (no Jacuzzi or having a huge home or having multiple vehicles, no luxuries).

I was inspired to not get a shower and hot water put in from fight club, that movie really changed how I see myself living in the future. My home will be clean and presentable. But no cable, maybe i'll have internet but beyond that . . . I want complete and utter silence.

I'd like to buy some land somewhere out West, get some cattle and live off the land.

Teach myself how to swim, go on a road trip (once in a car, once on a bicycle and another on a Harley.. fuck walking and such, but I will likely camp out)

By now, i'm probably 60, 65, 70 even. I don't think i'll even make it to 25, let along 30 LET ALONG 70.. but if I do, i'll probably get me a dog, stock up on guns, ammo and bullet proof vests etc.. prepping for the zombie apocalypse.

This is all assuming I don't end up rotting away in prison for something or another between now and 70. I have a very bad feeling that i'll either die young or get shipped off to prison for something and all of this will just be, a fading bleak memory.

So I try not to think about the future in depth all too much.

If I didn't already just type out my future, in depth.

Want to work in IT for a company, not in a call center. Trying to get into web development, training myself with HTML/CSS training online.

Goals are to just make stacks of cash and set all my bills to autopay so I never have to worry about bills. That's literally my goal in life is to just have enough money to not worry about the bills. As it stands I am nowhere close to this and will not be for some time, unfortunately.

I'm not sure I understand the third question but the way I'm focusing on going right now is getting into ONE college class and seeing where that goes from there for my career path. As for my personal life, I don't really have one outside of sitting at home sipping soda and playing video games/watching streamers on twitch/mixer.

Plans for the future ^ literally all of that, that's it lol

I signed up with a local gym since I lost my old one. I want to get in better shape especially now. I would like to learn some martial arts and own a few weapons. Get a better car. No A/C+rain is a bad combo. I gotta earn more money. Not a lot but enough where I am satisfied.

That's it for now currently. After that, we'll see.

I'm studying for my fifth actuarial exam and took a break to enjoy a delicious, refreshing Bud light lime and play Yellow Ledbetter by Pearl Jam on my Fender Stratocaster.

Woshi-Wumao · 2017-09-30T06:30:39+00:00

I moved to Asia and flipped the tables by letting women financially support me. In all my free time (which is pretty much all day, everyday) I read a ton of books and study and improve myself. My hot topics right now include business, programming, psychology and philosophy, and I'm figuring out how to organize and weave my growing expertise in these fields together, with the ultimate aim of freeing more men from the matrix (which, btw, goes much, much deeper than merely women).

I'd like to build a brotherhood of some sort, so we can accomplish shit together, united by a strong core philosophy and mission, multiplying our success by way of reduced friction against women, society and government.

Right now I want to get back on my feet and find fulltime employment, so I can move out of home again. I've lived on my own since my mid twenties, but had to move back home with my parents recently due to a couple of bad events. They weren't even woman related. That's the sad part.

In the future I would like to return to study and gain a proper career that I enjoy. One that pays well enough to maintain my independence but also allows me to travel the world and pursue more expensive hobbies that are currently out of the question.

38SPL · 2017-09-30T17:58:04+00:00

I'm going to trade school for plumbing in January, would like to graduate, get an apprenticeship, a job, save like mad hell and buy a condo.

Also disregard females because they'll ruin all that

DocHolliday226 · 2017-09-30T11:35:33+00:00

I'm trying to save up and get my finances in order so I can buy a little wooden schooner and sail around the world. I've always been enamored with schooners and living a life at sea would be most content.

2017-09-30T14:59:07+00:00

I've been focusing on my career at a high tech company and been going to the gym regularly to improve my overall physical strength and health. I plan on continuing to travel and be involved with more physical activities. I'm interested in tracking and potentially racing motorcycles, either the 300cc or 600cc class. I also will the up BJJ for the winter and pick up the guitar again. Scuba diving is on my radar as well.

My dream hasn't changed one bit in over 15 years. Peace.

My life has been so stress free over the past few years that literally my only source of stress is occasionally when I lose at a video game. That's it.

I went from being the most stressed out person I know to being the most peaceful and zen. I do not get angry at all any more. I don't stress anything. I'm always smiling.

I have a passive income that covers all of my expenses.

I am living my dream. I am at peace.

axonMagnus · 2017-10-01T07:29:32+00:00

Greetings friends :) sure i will chim in.

am 22 years old, british lad living in a small town next to norwich. Plan right now is to make £1400 pounds thats roughly the amount i need to get a driving license then i will have more jobs available.

Then after that move on to make £8000 and with that i will move on to do HE course (access to higher education course) which will either be engineering or computing HE coarse i just have to do for one year then i can go to university to do computer science.

That is just one option i have 2 patents both will be in the computer hardware / office industry am working on and planing on building the prototypes next month if that some how is a success , wow i will be set for life.

So right now am doing jobs just to get money for either possibilities . also teaching my self programming in python and c++ for the development of the prototypes they will either be ardiono or raspberry pie i have yet to decide :)

BTW i actually have 4 patents planed by the last 2 are just plain ridiculously optimistic and very much depend on the success of the first 2.

i have along way to go at the moment just feels like am hitting brick walls the seeming impossibility of it all is just well soul crashing ,barely any jobs in this town so have no choice but to do care work....
