Good for you, bro. You’d lose your mind if I told you about my Ducati and Lexus.
Not really. As long as it gets me from point A to point B and is reliable I'm good with it. Not a fan of putting lots of money into things that depreciate in value rapidly.

Agreed but it also needs to be presentable at first glance

Both of these brands, even the Gucci stuff, hold their value very well.

A brand new car off a lot depreciates hugely in value no matter what brand it is. At least 30% the second you drive it off the lot.

In other terms, buying a new car is among the absolute most idiotic things a person can do from a financial perspective.

It would be akin to putting $50K in the bank and as soon as you deposit it, it becomes $35K.

If a person is not comfortable with that thought process then they shouldn't be comfortable with the thought process of buying a new car either.

Cringe. I also kinda don't believe that you got all those messages, girls legit dgaf about money. One of the biggest misconceptions out there.
Money is tops with women. If not outright, they still are drawn to implicit displays of money (social status, dominance, fame, rank in a uniform)
Game is some combination of looks, money, status, and personality.

In a lot of cases, looks are more important than money. The 18-24s care more about looks than money when choosing men for both sex and relationships.

When a man is around age 35, he starts getting judged on money and possessions more, both by women close to his own age and younger women. In most cases, you'll still want to have some looks. Being bald and fat doesn't help.

Ever since I hit a certain income level I have been able to frequent certain places with higher quality women. It's basic economics.
I've noticed that the higher end apartments in my city tend to have more physically attractive women as compared to the older ones. That's somewhat specific to my city.

The pic was me at the Gucci store with shopping bag in hand. And I've come to the conclusion that it's very likely the exact same experience women who post thirst trap pics encounter. A bunch of heart emojis and little "hey there" messages from women you don't care about and in my case a little turned off by them. Had maybe 1 I'm attracted to but even then it's like "oh I know why you're messaging me now".
Women are more thirsty for commitment than sex. Getting sex is nothing for mostly every pre-menopausal woman.

A man posting a Gucci store is not going to get the same reaction from women as compared to men's reactions to a woman posting a pic on her butt in a skimpy bikini.

Basically a store that sells sh!t that costs $50 for $2000. Not sure how people think getting scammed is "in fashion".

I guess showing you have enough money to get scammed is in these days.
The point is women will recognize the sucker. From a woman perspective, it'll be easier to extract resources from that guy.

Men always flaunted money to increase his chances of getting laid. Some know how to do it. OP post was cringe. I can imagine the type of women who replied.
