No more debt

25 years ago I was mad about this chick that looked like a hotter version of Jamie Lee Curtiss, with bigger tits. I maxed out two credit cards, and tiled her kitchen. Then she dumped me, and went back to her unemployed pothead ex. I never got another credit card, and have 0 debt.

I saw her a year later, she was selling pretzels in pubs lol.

Almost all married men are heavily in debt. His money pays all the bills and mortgage, her's is all for savings in mysterious accounts or she slowly siphons it off.

Women cause men to go into debt with their outrageous demands. It used to be the other way around. When women and men stayed together, it was common for women to run the household and put the man on the allowance system that fit into the family budget for your regular man on the street.

However now, women look at money like a jaded cop with 20 years in, slowly vesting their pension to get the hell out when a super number is reached that she'll get as income.

For years I barely made enough to keep afloat. I bought a condo I could barely pay for, used car (still had to finance). As the years went I made more money but didn't really spend more. With inflation, my condo payment become less than rent. Still drove used cars, but paid cash. Eventually I paid off the condo and really began saving money (Schwab account, 401K from work). No wife, no kids so now I'm retired living in Thailand in a condo I paid cash for (no property taxes here so it only costs about $1000 a year). Travel a lot. Living the good life.

Debt is not bad in itself if you know it's going to pay off. For example, the future doctors have to take out massive loans, especially if they go beyond the GPs or you get a small mortgage for a living space you can afford. But it can also be an absolute poison such as the car payments or consumer spendings or abstract college degrees. And the worst type of all is the women of course no matter how much they are making. They are truly the black holes with NO exceptions. P.S. The $20K in debt is actually quite low for an average woman. Most have truly debilitating amounts stemming from their college loans and profligate consumer spending. The reasonably attractive women in my city tend to live in the most expensive parts of it while spending their last dime on the rent and clothing with nothing left on food AND going deeply in debt. And all that for a slim chance to meet a walking ATM (aka a man) to bail them out. Caveat emptor!

You're welcome bro 👌🏻

I was like you and great with finances as a kid and teen. But when I got in a LTR, going to the mall at the weekend suddenly became a thing to do. I'd look at clothes and other shit I didn't really need and she'd say shit like "you deserve it". Wants became needs. I began to hate going to her place because it was so full of clothes and other crap that I could barely get to the bed. She nearly convinced me to finance a new car but I stood my ground on that one.

I rarely go to restaurants now that I am single again. I rather cook better meals at home than waste an hour sitting around waiting for people to bring me food.

Some women can handle finances but in my experience they are few and far between. If I came across a woman who had her financials in order, it's the one thing that could possibly convince me to try another LTR. Having said that, the only ones I have met who do are not attractive at all and obviously stockpiling cash for catnip purchases down the line because they know they are unlikely to find a man to take care of them.

Personal finance, Minimalism and MGTOW are my religion now.

"It wasn't until after we moved in, however, that I found out she was more than $20k in debt."

I just had a flash vision of a futuristic society where women would not be allowed to take on debt. I mean our whole model is wrong, why not give credit cards to chimps? They're technically people, based on how genetically close they are? Equality!

Debt is an important topic to me, I have not been debt-free since 2015. Stay strong, read some Dave Ramsey for good measure :) and listen to your judgement over all else, if you find yourself in a relationship.

The amount of guys I've seen overlook financial irresponsibility as a major red flag is staggering.

All but one of the married guys I know have the same complaints about all the shoes/purses/outfits/etc the wife buys but hasn't ever used. I knew it was over with my last GF when I visited her parent's place and saw she still had a walk-in closet chock-full of clothing and accessories she wouldn't get rid of (and she was always shopping for more despite having no income!).
