Anyone having trouble keeping up with life??

[X11Spectator 4520]

There is work which just seems to have more demands and complexity just to do the same job.

There is trying to be politically informed both locally and globally.

There is social f~~~ery of the collapse of trad con values and the competing agendas trying to fill the gap.

Then every decision about your future is more complex and the impacts more critical.

There is all the standard family dramas everyone has with aging parents.

All the house and daily chores to maintain, pay bills etc

and so on and so forth.

I’m f~~~ing drowning man. I am literally one unplanned major expense away from financial ruin.

Is s~~~ getting more demanding than previous generations. My grandfather worked physically harder than me but I doubt he had to deal with all this s~~~ just to maintain.

If I f~~~ up ain’t nobody there to save me cos everyone I know is worse off than me. They got all the same s~~~ I got to deal with + kids, wives, ex wives, divorces, custody etc.

I feel exactly the same time bro lots of the time. Just take it a day at a time. I haven’t focused on accomplishing my personal goals for a while because of work and stress and so I just want to relax and do nothing when I’m free bUT I’ll be coming around soon.

Don't care

[CarnageParticipant 22113]

Not me pall.

I couldn’t be more quiet.

Nothing to worry about at all.

To those following me, be careful, I just farted. Men those beans are killers.

[Anonymous 43]

let it all collapse. seriously, give it a kick, and watch it all fall over. Start over.

It is easier to start over, because you have the benefit of experiencing the trial and error that made the shaky foundation in the first place. You have the knowledge to rebuild better than before.

Re evaluate your expenses. Make saving something a priority. Save $1 a day. I used to find $2 in dropped change every day. Car washes, fast food drive through, convenience stores, parking lots. I used to ride my bike at night with a light on the handle bars pointing down.

What can you live without? living month to month means buying the big bulk packages is not a good idea. buy the things you need just for that month only, anything carried over is waste. Instead of buying $20 huge 30 roll of toilet paper, buy 6 rolls for $8. You just freed up $12. McDonald’s has free internet. They will not hassle you if you are there all night. buy a $1 cup of soda, go there every other day, spend $15, but internet for me is $40. I would save $25. So, I have saved $37 plus what ever change I find, and my standard of living hasn’t changed.

I think our world has become more complex now,
due in large part to the spreading of technology to the point where we are saturated with entertainment and information(infotainment),
as well as disinformation, misinformation, propaganda and a lot of common bulls~~~ nobody needs to wasting their time with.

I like to unplug once in a while and actually leave home without my phone. Try getting a woman to do that!

Our lives are only as complex as we are willing to make it.

[Ever5Participant 1008]

Yeah, since going mgtow my life has been changing a lot.

I did all this stuff that I didn’t want to do but felt I “had” to do it. It was subconsciously about women, never even knew it until I gave up on women and went mgtow.

Now I bought a van, currently working on into a camper. Hoping to be done within 3 months. Then I’m selling everything I own, and moving to the desert/wilderness to stare at the Milky Way and be left alone, except when I feel like being around people.

Not sure that helps. But I just reevaluated my life. Also got rid of my high speed internet. I just use my phone now. That saved me 80 bucks a month.

I really regret buying a house. I was happier when I was renting a furnished room, just in simply knowing, that I could pack up and leave with a 30 day notice. Been living in this house for over 5 years and it sucks, sucked after the first year. But couldn’t give it up because of my attachment to women and thinking this is what I need to find a good woman.

Anyway bud. Life’s f~~~ing stressful dude. The less s~~~ you got to deal with, the better.

And the mcdonalds deal. Totally. Also you got libraries, and the gym usually has wifi.

Truth has no place to live in the mind of a woman.

[X11Spectator 4520]

Letting it all collapse is tempting, I would survive. Things would be a bit hard as I don’t have the body of a young man, a few chronic injuries etc. Nothing major really. A young mans physicality makes s~~~ a bit easier.

I won’t let it collapse cos ego of have assholes say I f~~~ed up.

I want to pay all my debts, complete my projects and then they can all go f~~~ themselves. Also some people rely on me not to f~~~ up. I got dogs to I won’t let them go down with me.

So no collapse, gonna ride this motherf~~~er into the ground or die trying.

[Anonymous 12]

Nope.

Life has trouble keeping up with me.
since i dropped the news(feminism, celebrities, mass shootings, nothing i can do about it),
politics (mafia, taxes, nukes, what am i gonna do about it)
and focus on work (i can improve)
as well as myself (i can improve)

the world runs after me, tryna’ get my attention, for me to pay attention to dat bullshiet.

Nope.

Drop the weight that it represents, and realize you move much faster then it would allow you to.
Keep up with general trends, and level up as fast as you can.

[BigDParticipant 3024]

Work life is a vicious cycle. In order to cut costs today’s worker needs to do the work of several men that would have been hired in the past. Even more so now to cover for the expense of feminism. Thus, the product can be purchased cheaper. Not to mention we all carry a work leash with us. The dang cellphone. Your work can get a hold of you 24/7.

Here is something that is key for a better life. It’s not how much income you have, it’s how much of that income you can keep. I suggest you go through all your expenses and find out which ones you can lower, which ones you can get rid of, and which ones have to stay. Lower your costs as much as you can, then seed your left over money in investments.

It sucks, but since we were kids we have been taught the wrong things. A good list of things we were taught that is wrong;

1. Time = Money
2. You can afford X Product/Service if your income is Y
3. Sharing is caring
4. Rich = Wealthy
5. High income = Wealth

The list should have been;

1. Money = Value
2. Just because you can “afford” to buy something you don’t need doesn’t mean there isn’t a cheaper alternative (Used vehicle over new)
3. If you were able to acquire something another person can acquire the same thing without handouts
4. If your expenses overwhelm your income you have a large income but no wealth
5. Wealth is the absence of financial worry, not a bunch of cash

Don't stick your dick into anyone you aren't willing to put up with for eighteen years and nine months.

[Ever5Participant 1008]

Yeah, I think it’s different for every one, individual path.

But I’m pretty certain, going MGTOW, a reevaluation is going to occur, men will begin to question what they are doing more and more. So many life decisions are based on women.

I know for me, I realized the more s~~~ I gotta take care of, the less I enjoy life. Mowing grass, taking care of the yard, just cleaning the house is annoying. I only use 5% of the space I have available, counting the yard which I never use. But I gotta take care of 100%. It’s ridiculous.

I don’t think there’s a single answer or a specific path. So maybe I’m advocating minimalism which might not work for everyone.

What is it that I really need. Food, shelter/sleep, and a place to take a dump and shower every once in a while.

Past times. I read, meditate, play on the computer. That’s about it.

Why are resources, time/money, being wasted on things that I don’t need, and don’t even want?

Truth has no place to live in the mind of a woman.

[X11Spectator 4520]

Thing is tho which is an issue I don’t think anyone discussed is as follows;

Sure you can cut back and live in your car etc. Doesn’t take a lot to survive but what about when you are f~~~ing 70 or 80, sick, less able and broke. You just gonna be a hobo surviving on the generosity of others.

Being young, do whatever the f~~~ you want. Go live in the jungle you will survive. Prolly have fun, let’s see you pull that s~~~ when you 80.

[Ever5Participant 1008]

Well I’m in my early 30’s. I don’t know how long I’ll live. I’ve worked a lot and saved a lot, never been married, no children, when I dated, never spent much on women.

So after I sell my house, I’m guessing I’ll have enough to live on for 5 years. Figure it out from there.

Thing is, I’m surprised I’m not dead already from being so dissatisfied with life, so maybe I’m coming from a different place than you.

On living to 80. I don’t know man, if I get old enough that I can’t take care of myself, I guess I’ll just let myself die if that’s the only thing available. Not really thinking about mooching off the system. I’d just let myself die.

Why live if I’m not having a good time? That’s the motivation it took to make the decision to live in a van. I’m tired of doing what I’m supposed to do for no benefit, no enjoyment, no return. I wanna go have some fun, at minimum, some peace.

Who knows, I might die at 42 from lightning. Should I seriously be miserable tryin to play it safe for my whole life?

[Anonymous 12]

but by then you have seen all the highs and lows of life, and i mean really all of it. you have circled the world, done several 360 degree turns, explored all the major facets of life.

money? check
poverty? check
high on adrenaline? check
depression? double triple check.
education, both mandatory and personal? check
Jobs and professional progress? check
.

.
.

So what stops you from jumping off a bridge at 80+?
The older i grow, the less i am attached to this world. 80 years… pff… this planet has rotated around the sun so often that my meager existence will leave no marks in a couple million years.

To me, part of going my own way will also entail to retain the ability to stop and quit the path.
onto whatever comes next, even if it is NULL

[Ever5Participant 1008]

Exactly g-now.

I think that’s what it takes to live. To stop worry about dying. Then again, get into the spiritual perspectives, we’re all here to learn something. Maybe living a normal life, being miserable and dying in an old people’s home is something some people need to go through.

This isn’t an easy answer because I think whatever it is that someone is supposed to move towards, there’s going to be “fear”.

Just part of life. We’re all going to die. How we die, I don’t know if we really have a choice in the matter. Dying from 3 days of dehydration, or dying from 3 years of laying in an old people’s home… which is worse?

Seems to be a baby boomer thing, so far in history every objective (non spiritual) measure shows they reaped the most rewards of previous generations toil and suffering. They had the highest relative standard of living, needed the least talent to excel, had trivial things to stress about so they made up s~~~ to stress about, they have accumulated vast wealth, they still lock up power and call the biggest shots and divert the biggest slice of the pie to themselves, we learned governments lie.

Yeah s~~~ might be crumbling but they won’t feel the effects. My area is swamped by boomers in expensive motor homes just filling in their days of leisure trying to spend thru their wealth while obsessing over how to look and feel young and indulge themselves. Trump embodies that era and generation in a single person. That’s what MAGA means.

My generation had to learn to hustle and invent/create, we were born dead on arrival, came home from school to an empty house. We had no mass communication and had to find each other and make our own fun and were treated to youth unemployment, heroin epidemics, high incarceration rates, suicide, economic collapse and the collapse of all the traditional values we were taught to believe in…

Our icons were all losers.

[Anonymous 42]

Obama-nomics ran me the f~~~ over and left me for F~~~ING DEAD!

Let that money grubbing self serving racist pay the taxes to run this unholy f~~~ing abortion!

I care for myself and F~~~ EVERYONE ELSE!

I WAS a nice guy…

Thats kind of how I feel about it too. Baby Boomers robbed tomorrow to pay for today. That is how they maintained their high standard of living. I came of age in the great crash of 2007. All of my friends are dead now, from Suicide or Drug Overdose.

The economy is completely f~~~ed and I keep waiting for another big crash to happen. I’m sure it will. I spent the last few years in agonizing pain with a chronic recurring health condition. There goes my 20’s, no fun to be had, only more suffering. I am hoping my 30’s might be a little better. Otherwise, I’m going to call it quits just like everyone else my age did…

Work sucks. But if you’re trapped in work that is due to your own making. Sounds harsh but it’s true. Work towards a situation you like, or at least don’t hate.

There is trying to be politically informed both locally and globally.

F~~~ that. “trying to be informed” sounds like something I used to do for other people. I ignore most news, only following something if it’s of genuine interest.

There is social f~~~ery of the collapse of trad con values and the competing agendas trying to fill the gap.

Yep. But what does worrying about it all achieve except your anxiety and neuroticism? More noise. F~~~ it all.

Then every decision about your future is more complex and the impacts more critical.

True. You can only do the best you can in the present, the future is undetermined. Make good decisions now and they will pay off, and your regrets will be minimal.

There is all the standard family dramas everyone has with aging parents.

Family dramas? Not for me. Do what you need to do but ghost the rest.

All the house and daily chores to maintain, pay bills etc

Well this is life to an extent, when you get the rest of your life in order these don’t stress you.

I never thought I’d be thinking about retirement this much in my early 30s. But time goes quickly man, before I know it I’ll be 40, 50. By which time I want to be free of the rat race.

[X11Spectator 4520]

The boomers have been described as “the future eaters”.

But hey they were nice enought to invent radical feminism once they got bored with sex, drugs and rock & roll.

[DwightDavidParticipant 859]

This is an interesting thread full of complex problems that are way over my head. So I will speak about my own day to day existence. There are economic and social issues that affect my life, making it not as simple as I’d like it to be. I am in my 40s, and due to my blue pill thinking, I have debt I am currently trying to pay off so I can free myself. I am stuck for the time being in the northeast, where there are to many people that are just going through the motions of life. I try not to do that. I try to make my life interesting, despite my limited resources. I try not to let work be the center of my life. I try to get off the work/spend/sleep lifestyle I see all around me. But sometimes I get stuck, depressed or just plain tired.

I do have lots of hope though, I know things are slowly getting better for me. But to answer the original question, yes, I have some trouble keeping up with life.
