Can we please have a motivational thread?

What the fuck? After "I want to -" I expected it to say something like.

>Then he punched the guru in his face, took whatever was in his pockets and left. That was the day he stopped wanting and started being

> motivating you to make money

Only makes sense if said hot girl is an expensive escort. Being rich isn't going to make actual relationships with women easier, if anything it will make them more difficult.

Anyone have the guides for like meditation, habits, etc?

The Power of Now by Tolle and Sam Harris' book on mindfulness. Just don't take them as gospel.

Also, try writing each part of your day down. What time you wake up. what time you eat. what time you shit post, how long you shitpost for, etc. That'll help you be more mindful of how much time you waste.

Feelig the power of visualization right here. Bandler & Grinder, Maltz, etc.

Would somebody please paste that link so I don't have to type it out like a tard.

>Being rich isn't going to make actual relationships with women easier, if anything it will make them more difficult.

Absolutely wrong. No girl worth having wants to be with a broke loser.

really, and you know this from experience?

>virgin detected

You're assuming the broke stay broke and the rich stay rich. Women don't believe that. Broke people don't believe that. Even most rich people don't believe that.

I do speak from experience. In high school I had no money, a skinny body, and low confidence.
Now that I'm college-educated, with a good job and a decent body, I'm 10x more successful with women.

>You're assuming the broke stay broke and the rich stay rich. Women don't believe that.

What world do you live in? A rich person is MUCH more likely to stay rich than a poor person is to become rich.

Unless you are lucky enough to be born rich you probably won't be rich unless you absolutely work your ass to the bone most of your life. At which point you have to ask yourself if it is even worth the effort.

Luckily I am already dead inside so I don't mind slaving away.

>Now that I'm college-educated, with a good job and a decent body, I'm 10x more successful with women.
you and 90% of guys in the world who don't spend their time on Veeky Forums.

Over a period of 10 years through the 90's to early 2000's, 90% of people who were in the lowest tax bracket at the beginning had moved up by at least one bracket by the end, and 21% had ended up in the highest tax bracket.

70% of rich (worth more than $3m) families lose their wealth by the second generation and 90% by the third generation.

"Rich stay rich and poor stay poor" isn't entirely accurate.

And to compound on the low income earners moving up in tax brackets point, wouldn't it be better not to increase the minimum wage? Seeing as for most people it's only a starting point. Where young people and people entering or re-entering the job market build experience before almost all of them move on to better jobs and higher wages. So wouldn't it be better to leave the minimum wage where more of these people can be employed at lower cost to the employer to get more people into the work force to build their skills and work experience?

Realising I'm not in one of the 15 active minimum wage threads this is somewhat off topic, but whatever.

I love these threads. Inspiration comes in many forms, but the drive to better one's lot in life much more than just a list for the material.

That said, often the best example of wealth is material. As my dad always says "It's easier to be sad on a yacht than sad in a 1 bedroom studio".

Also, another inspirational quote from my dad "You can marry more money in a day than you can make in a lifetime".

Invest in URRE look forward to Moon.

How the fuck does that work? Not trying to question Dad wisdom but c'mon

Yeah that one doesn't work for me either.
I guess a yacht is physically more isolated because you're on the water, especially if you're in transit and not docked.

While a studio probably means your in the center of a city, there's a social life around you?

I don't understand that quote. What's the message behind it? That the fastest way t get money is to marry into it?

That one actually makes sense and yes. Not that love or fake love isn't work but you could marry into an empire that you could've never created yourself. I don't think it always works like that but it's possible.

You find me someone that is chronically unhappy on a fucking yacht. Go on.

yes.

he's a manwhore

I think the idea is not that it is easier to become sad on a yacht, but that if you are already sad, but on a yacht instead of in a shitty apartment you're still having a better time.

gosh this has never applied to me so much
Today I had enough and did the following:

>threw out all weed, alcohol, and cigarettes
>shaved for the first time in a month
>broke up with my clingy GF

it hurts but i think good things will come

Could you retry that sentence for me.

>all of my what

If you are sad you will have a better time on a yacht than in a studio apartment.
The moral is that material possessions can bring you happiness.

That's the opposite of what the quote says.

"It's easier to be sad on a yacht than sad in a 1 bedroom studio"
Are you interpreting that to mean that it is easier to become sad on a yacht than in a studio apartment, therefore people in studio apartments who don't have yachts are more likely to be happy?

Because that makes no sense.

Motivation is a luxury, discipline is everything.

Also, you will never get that type of a girl, no matter how motivation you are. Kill yourself, pleb!

He's right though, unless she's a crazy suicidal bitch there's no way she would want someone like that. No real self respecting woman would fall for a minimum wage cuck.

>You find me someone that is chronically unhappy on a fucking yacht. Go on.

Yeah. he poorly explained his quote, I think we can agree on that

invest in /URRE$

>Only makes sense if said hot girl is an expensive escort.

Women are an expensive luxury.

The life.

I don't believe a word of it. Only a beta blue pill cuck would say that.

I'd love to see you argue with someone like Dan Bilzerian about how money makes his relationships with women more difficult. Not only will you be able to access a much higher tier women, but you won't have to deal with the inconvenience of not being rich.

"Big things have small beginnings"

Yeah, not to mention women are expensive.

They usually cant afford to live on their own dime, especially with the lifestyle they expect in romance or a relationship.

You did great taking out all the shit, but you'll have done nothing if you don't work towards betterment.

Get a load of this cognitive denial and plain coping mechanism.

It amazes me how many pathetic beta schlubs think money will make them more attractive to women. Women are attracted to attractive men. That means men who are physically good looking and alpha. Bill Gates and Zuckerberg are rich as fuck but the only attractive women they are going to get are prostitutes and gold diggers, because they are weird looking betas. There are plenty of rich guys who are also true alphas (any number of actors and musicians) but it certainly isn't a prerequisite. What other men respect is not what women respect. A guy can be a total failure in the eyes of other men but still be a natural alpha.

I post one picture of a girl because it would attract you fucking idiots. I don't give a shit about the whore in my OP and no one else should either. Jesus Christ.

ALPHA FUCKS BETA BUCKS

I feel like this image was made by a gay man

a nice condo would be cool I guess and I like good cigars. Why does that chick have no tits? what is the picture of the closet supposed to supposed to be? A dream closet full of clothes? nigger you gay

cognitive dissonance*

He's referring to women in the quote.

Could be a man or woman. All that matters is that if they're very wealthy.

>easier to be sad on a Yacht
Easier is implying that the following noun

>Than
Comparison With the following

>sad in a 1 bedroom studio

Is english not your first language? It's okay but i interprited the sentence correctly. Even if the advice is wonky as shit.

Basically. My dad was bangin a rich girl in his 20s but ended up marrying my cunt of a mother and losing all of his friends.

>colored contacts

SHITSKIN/10 would oven

links dead. repost?

>I don't give a shit about the whore in my OP and no one else should either.
That's some solid wisdom there.

Does that mean you like the D?

...

Granted. But, how many of those stayed there?
Often,some of the top 20% was In the bottom 20% earlier in their lives. Additionally, most people who reach the top 20% do so for a year or a few years as they reach the maximum earning potential.

This never fails to motivate me.

This threads always attract cult members repeating the usual get rich quick nonsense from whatever guru they worship.

Does the average poster here actually believe that bullshit?

>70% of rich (worth more than $3m) families lose their wealth by the second generation and 90% by the third generation.
That is what happened to my family.

Want to hear a sad story?
My Great Grandfather made millions in the property business. 50 years ago, my Grandfather inherited most of it.
No male heirs, bad gambling habit, and four mistresses later, all the money is gone.

Only the old family estate remains - big house and lots of acreage, in a desirable area. Its worth quite a bit.

I've told that part of the story on this board before, but never shared this part with anyone - here on in real life:

I'm the oldest male heir. I want to start the business back up again.
We could definitely do it if we were to sell or mortgage the villa, but its not up to me.
My Mother won't even hear of it. Basically her response is "everything will be yours when I'm dead. You can do what you want then"

One major unexpected expense and we are ruined. We can barely keep up with the property taxes, which are over 30,000 a year. I have to work two shit jobs back to back.
Tending to the maintenance of the house and the grounds is a job in itself, but my younger Brother helps.

By the time my Mother dies 30 years from now (rough estimate), I'll be almost 60 fucking years old, or more.
I won't even have enough money to bury her, let alone pay the estate tax. The result is the Government will seize the house.

I've grown to detest her over the years, and can barely look at her anymore. But I can't abandon my Brother and Sisters to save myself.

Being poor out of necessity is one thing. But being wealthy, yet living in poverty due to ignorance and mismanagement is inexcusable.
I've tried to start my own business from the bottom up but I don't have to time to think or act on it, and I can't quit my jobs.
Knowing that I could make in two years what would take me otherwise a lifetime is a feeling I can't shake anymore.

I don't think I ever had a chance guys.

I just want to be rich putting memes on T shirts and selling them on reddit.

That, or be a drug dealer for a short time.

I'm proud of you bro. Make sure you fill up the holes left behind, or you'll become a vacuum that will implode upon itself. If you haven't already, start listening to motivational audiobooks off TPB; even if you're fucking around on Veeky Forums, your mind will still be occupied by the audio, and you'll be constantly pumping positive reinforcement into yourself. Find a way you make yourself take advantage of the present moment, we all have our own. Good luck!

Way too urban for me. Visiting is nice, but why live in the city if you can afford not to? What of the Luxury of Seclusion?

That sucks. Don't you wish your family would trust you to handle their finances?

My grandparents owned a retail store that was successful, then as they got older and refused to adapt, they ran it into the ground. The business stayed afloat for a while because they took out massive debt to keep the doors open. Now 10 years later, my grandmother has a negative net worth. We are trying to convince her to just walk away from her house but of course we just hear "but it's my home..." I love her to death of course, but really, this set our family back pretty hard.

find a way to kick your mom out, lawyer up or something, find some kind of loophole.

>motivational audiobooks
Any recommendations?

Tragedy at its finest. i can only offer my sympathy

All within reach
$ is everything

that is obviously his daughter.

stay away.

Make more money then you worthless sack of shit

On second thought you should just kill yourself

You know the only people who never made failures?
Are the ones who never did any fucking thing

Stop helping her pay the estate tax. Let's see how true to her ideals she stays when she's forced to go into debt or risk the government seizing the place.
Sometimes people need a kick in the butt to see the light.

Kinda the same, i really fuckin love my country despite being eastern yuro shithole and ill never leave it for good, but i really want to live in US for at least a few years, just cos of the god-tier nature.Want to experience living somewhere in the Mojave, in Alaska or maybe in New England for a while.
But buying properties in USA is so fucking hard

>buying properties in USA
Not to mention getting the green card, huh?

I thik, if you have enough money to own a good house in USA as a foreigner, the green card inst a big problem

I didn't like the youtube video and i don't like reading the script either.

Yes it is you moron. Unless you're in business money is it irrelevant.

Nah fuck you man, don't tell me bracket creep is making people richer.

And I'd imagine part of keeping your family rich is keeping the money concentrated. One family becomes many families after a few generations. The initial wealth can only last so long while most of the sub families revert to the mean.

My favourite quote

just a heads up, reverse image searching it was a waste of time, the pic is there but it's bleh, it demotivated me actually

women are attracted to ambition tho
