Loving simply doesn't satisfy hypergamy and keep a marriage together.

One of the most annoying things I've ever heard are celebrities constantly saying money doesn't buy happiness.

I get it, somewhat. Having money comes with it a whole new set of problems. You can't tell who wants you for you or your fame...agents and lawyers alike want to bleed you dry, people stalk you when you want your privacy. It can be stressful.

But as a guy who lives on the streets; moreover, a man who has tasted the hell of poverty, I can attest three things I've had to learn.

Money doesn't BUY happiness. It buys plenty of opportunities to be happy. It buys you hobbies. It buys you a house. It buys you a car. And the most obvious, it buys you affection. Sure, the affection from females is false, but many blue pilled guys would do anything to believe in the illusion that a woman loves them. Having money helps with that in the most ironic way.
You are responsible for obtaining your happiness and peace. I used to find happiness in other people(read: women and close friends) but in the past three years I had to learn harsh lessons about female nature through heavily scarred heartbreak by exes, betrayal by my close friends in pursuit of money and status, and the disdain of others when I wasn't easily exploitable.
Even in the worst of situations, you can have fun. I have memories of some of the craziest and most awesome times when I had a few dollars in my pocket, free time, and a few friends. Hook-ups at a Halloween party, getting kidnapped to go diving in a lake at night, waking up in New Orleans before Mardi Gras, days with Mary Jane and music at the park. My experience has had its golden moments amidst the hurt. They seem like a distant memory now, but these moments brought me joy and exhilaration.

I truly knew the meaning of disposability through this experience of being on the streets. Few people love you, but those who do are once in a lifetime friends.

With that being said, I've had to learn to be at peace with myself, because happiness is unobtainable most days. It's still a struggle, especially with issues like anxiety and depression that I possess.

A person can be pretty damn happy when they aren't worried too much about starving, not getting rained on, having your items constantly stolen, dealing with police harassment, having to do convoluted things during the summer to appear normal because you're sweating all the time, and being tired and stressed out all the time.

To strangers and some friends, I appear the happiest guy, but it is a front, because no one loves a whining man who is down on his luck.

Ben Carson meant well, but much like his political acumen, his expertise on this subject is a bit lacking.

He was attempting to empower those who feel like they lack, but has very little insight on what it's like.

Still, learning to be at peace with oneself and pursue your own meaning to happiness is essential to leading a well meaning life. That is a good takeaway, but I'd do ANYTHING to live like a king...just for a day.

Since that's impossible, I'll deal with being a peasant and party like a peasant until one day i can party like a rockstar or something close to it.

It's a beautiful message, nonetheless. Life, however, can be quite ugly at times. Find your reason to live...or don't. You're free to do either. Cheers.

When you rich, you got a ballroom to dance in, right there in your mansion, nigga. You don't dance in the street, but you do dance. Am I right or wrong?

demontits · 2018-07-31T02:52:11+00:00

Sorry, did I just walk into a church? This is the kind of inane garbage that women repost on facebook. What does any of this have to do with mgtow?

edit:ben carson has been married 43 years

Not a Dr. Carson fan, but good advice is good advice.

bdog666 · 2018-07-31T07:57:12+00:00

Sure, easy to say when your worth 30 million.

Ben Carson's wife triggered an investigation by the House Oversight Committee by spending too much money lol

that's eloquent, but have you ever seen someone get off of a jet ski and say they're depressed?

I think poverty does severely limit many peoples dreams (or attempts at them).

PingPauli · 2018-07-31T05:09:03+00:00

Its true. I was living for 2 years and had eating up mostly of my savings by spending ~500$ a month. Best part of my life yet. I wasnt fake smiling all day like a simp but deeply satisified because i was free and wasnt a part of the society that only benefits women.

Atton_Risk · 2018-07-31T04:22:34+00:00

Blue pill men can learn from that one.

Very mgtow. What's a flesh pillow btw?

JohnPerera · 2018-07-31T05:29:26+00:00

I agree 100% except "love genuinely".

Propaganda to make you find peace in your wage-slavery, nothing more. Idealize poverty to discourage actual ambition

Not being able to keep a roof over your head or having to constantly worry about paying bills would make anyone miserable. But after your basic needs are taken care of, more money does not make most people happier, except in that it raises your status compared others. Being driven to earn more by a wife is certainly not the route to happiness. AS a MGTOW you can live simply and enjoy as much happiness as do richer people. If you work fewer hours you have the free time to work on yourself. More money gives you more choices but choosing a path that will bring happiness is the most difficult part.

I've found fulfilment recently by gradually building up a 'wildlife utopia' out the back of my house and attracting as many species (birds, hedgehogs etc) as I can and by starting a keto diet which is giving me feelings of health I haven't experienced for decades. Both these projects have cost very little.

money = happiness, if you use it right, and come from a background where you didn't have any.

The only ones unhappy with money are spoiled fucks or genuinely sick people,where said money can't buy them health

badaboomxx · 2018-07-31T13:26:06+00:00

A really good message.

EmptyNewspaper · 2018-07-31T14:49:26+00:00

Worth to be saved/bookmarked.

Money does't buy happiness.

Except it does. Income and overall happiness are directly correlated.
