Micah,

Words to live by there. I usually adopt that approach but must admit I’ve fallen short at times.

I won’t again and haven’t for a while. At least I know it won’t be wasted on wining, dining and entertaining these hoes LoL.

Chase a check, never chase a chick...

I adopted the full fledge minimalist lifestyle roughly 3-4yrs ago. Was always a budgeter and hardly made spur-the-moment purchases. While all my friends were getting the latest and greatest smartphones and vehicles, I was still using a flip or slide up cellphone with the smallest phone plan available and making repairs on my Suburban(328,000+ miles and still chugging along btw) that’s been in the family almost 20yrs now(brother has inherited it for the time being).
SAVE, SAVE, SAVE! Wait till your bank account gets to fat then make your purchases.

Micah, while I definitely agree with most of the things you’ve said above, but there’s one problem… death.

Yes, saving is good, but you also have to spend on YOURSELF.

We don’t know when we gonna die. What’s the point of making money if you’re not spending some on the things you enjoy? Dieing without living life is one of the worst death.

You cannot take the money with you to the grave.

Especially those of us with no kids.

Save, invest, but you also have to spend. Because you don’t know when you’re going to die.

Balaam,

Idk back in my pre monk days, I did take a chick down when I was renting a room in a house.

I told her beforehand that I’m not relationship material and if she couldn’t control her feelings we’d be better off not doing so. She still wanted it though.

After that I just went monk, I got nieces of age now can’t think about guys just smashing them out LoL

Yes, I understand that you have nieces, and would be displeased of a random dude banging them. Excuse my language.

But, this the sad reality. We live in a world full of sin, full of trash people. Men and women equally.

The only thing you can do is set an example for them. Teach them the way of life. Tell them to watch out for the basement dwelling bastards, who drives fancy cars. And maybe, just maybe, they’ll grow and become respectable women.

I don’t have a big problem with consumerism, if it’s within your means to consume. Obviously, don’t buy wants when you don’t have the cash to do so, and you must prepare for a time when you have no income.

However, there is nothing wrong on spending money on the things that bring you happiness. The ‘trick’ is to learn what brings you happiness and what is a waste of money. I don’t spend money on nice clothes, fancy meals, jewelry, watches, etc. I like to spend money on tech stuff and it makes me happy. Nothing wrong with that.

Ok. Then do it.

I might get a nice car later in life, when properties are paid off. To do so before would lengthen my financial goals and also attract gold diggers.

I cycle everywhere and take buses and trains when I need to. I love people assuming I’m broke because I cycle, when I’m not.

I spend my money on investments, good food and a few nice clothes.

[Chase PesosParticipant 2136]

Narwhal,

Nice point. Buy the things you enjoy, not be driven to ruin bc of a parasite.

Taoist,

I like your approach. It’s interesting how people treat you when they think you are broke. It’s nice to know how they really feel.

I’m similar there.

My piece of land looks like a satellite uplink station and a car junkyard.

Keeps gold diggers and burglars away.

The Joneses think of me as “broke” and I am fine with it.

This morning the mail man brought a man tall pile of packages and was totally in disbelief as I told him that there is not one single Christmas purchase among them.

Auctions of computer items and the Christmas rush took all of the competing bidders away. Some things fly cheap at X-mas time. Things c~~~s don’t buy.

And he was in shock about getting a tip for him and his colleague.

This tells me that I am not the rule, but the exception. I would expect him to drown in tips around Christmas time. But people are broke and some more than you might expect.

I don’t think you have to look like your broke. You can also chose to be…complete.

By that I mean that I have my life in order. There is no reason for any woman to believe they could possibly come in and fill any holes in my life. My house is not in need of a woman’s touch. My diet needs no woman’s cooking. My kids don’t need a mother. Nothing is missing. I show no signs of loneliness. Nothing is in need.

So instead of coming across as having nothing to offer women, I come off as having no need for a woman.

Ok. Then do it.

My company was run like that and looked like that too.

No need for external help.

Women despised that and clearly acted like it too.

It was always so funny then they watched me clean the place in detail, seeing that I am better at cleaning than any housewife.

Or would you want the traces and scratches of a greasy stinky overused sponge on the “specially-anti-reflex-coated” screens of your multi-thousand-Euro TV sets in the showroom?

Or humidity in the keyboard of such a set. Or the scratches from the women carelessly moving the units around?

Cleaning was my job. Or I would have lost a lot of money by having to sell off the shopworn and dented display units for way too cheap.

Making fun of them – like playing with cats – if they came cuddling.

Narwhal,

I get what you mean, I have a closet full of clothes, boots, dress shoes, etc for all weather and for every occasion.

For some reason, chicks think you’re broke if you don’t drive–that’s what I was getting at.

The shaming turns to pure hatred when they find out you are in fact not, and have no need/want for their services.

Funny one day I can not be working just wanting to wear a sweatsuit and get a totally different reaction then if I’m working a job that requires me to be in a well tailored suit. Such fickle creatures.

I also stay in shape and take good care of my things so they last years.

Chase a check, never chase a chick...

[Chase PesosParticipant 2136]

If the heels of my shoes or boots wear out and they are in good shape, I just get them redone.

If I lose a few inches around the waist or split the crotch in my pants, I do that as well. I don’t like throwing away quality stuff.

Chase a check, never chase a chick...

[Anonymous 43]

lol I have huge debt, and I wear it like a suit of armor. The c~~~ knows after several sessions in court that I do not have any more money for her to take away. I would rather pay a bank that I am a share holder than pay the c~~~ ex wife. I get a dividend from the bank, and nothing from the woman. The debt saves me more money than I would have paid the c~~~ over a lifetime of alimony, child support and child activity expenses.

[Chase PesosParticipant 2136]

May,

That debt really isn’t your fault per se. You’re doing good now with a lot less and that’s what matters.

When you get back where you want to be you’ll be even better.

Chase a check, never chase a chick...
