Shags, the question isn't that of money but of time. Whether we like it or not, diet and nutrition is going to be a major factor in our lives. If we don't learn it properly now, then we will be forced to learn it when we get older (as we get fatter, older, heart attacks, etc.) What is more...

A young man approached this post, opened his mouth as but to speak, and snorted, “Signor Pook! Or how is it that you like to be called, Monsieur Pook? Well then, bon jour! There is French salutation for your French slop!” Counterfeit not the time, goodly sir. Speak your complaint. “All...

A good example of the 'material mindset' would be the dork in 'Fight Club'. Although the movie is.. uh... self-destructive in its portrayal of masculinity, the 'what you own ends up owning you' is right on. I have literally seen grown adult men watch Martha Stewart to 'get the best tips'...

Whistler, The very definition of narcissism is the denial of the self. I thought it was always the opposite, that narcissism was doing what you wanted, and that those who did so were selfish, evil, etc. etc. But narcissistic disorder is very real and very prevalent. A 'distortion of...

For five years, even in my absence, I have been attacked for looking for yourself for structure in the world. When you were young, your parents and friends gave you structure of the world. You knew your role of going to school, of escorting a girl to the prom, doing your chores, doing your...

http://news-service.stanford.edu/news/2005/june15/jobs-061505.html Although women are not mentioned once, the speech does a better job outlining the proper mindsets than the countless "OMG, this is what women want!" posts. Aside from the common themes espoused here like the 'don't waste...

This sounds like Duell's quote of "The advancement of the arts, from year to year, taxes our credulity, and seems to presage the arrival of that period when human improvement must end." or that 19th century patent commissioner: "Everything that can be invented has been invented."...

The headline of the article is wrong. It should read: "WHY FRANCE IS DYING". The clown look is bad enough, but why is he wearing his suspenders backwards? His zipper is probably backwards too for... you know. For those Don Juans who see that image and are now confused, let us straighten...

Of course businesses fail. Just like Don Juaning, you don't get your first girl. The Don Juan does not go to 'school' to become a Don Juan. He goes out there and fails a lot in order to become good. It's no different with money. If you don't want to do anything more than just work for...

The doctor and lawyer have a lot of money, yes, but they do not have wealth. Wealth is defined by how long you don't have to work. Take the example of Sandy and Charles. Sandy dropped out of high school. With no career options, she got training in hair stylists, and proceeded to open her own...

No one is saying that college is worthless. But if you do little more in college than do well on tests, your college becomes nothing more than a piece of paper degree. With a university, you have very smart professors available to you. You have many resources available to you. I learned a lot...

No one has said 'do not go to college'. The thread was about the purpose of college. And the purpose is to make you into an employee. There is nothing wrong with being an employee. But you will never be able to become rich as an employee (unless you are a super-celebrity) or financially free...

They usually just get furious at me (for what? don't know). Ever since I've changed my financial destiny (looking to create financial structures rather than just work in someone else's) I have angered women more than any other act I've ever done in my life. If a man goes from Christianity to...

I have a college degree. I think it's wise for everyone to get a degree. But colleges do not teach you about money. They don't teach you about financial statements, about assets and liabilities. You are taught how to make resumes but not business plans. A couple of centuries, before the...

Hencken does not describe a woman boycott but a marriage boycott. Look, it is time to create the order of your own life. Don't just accept you have to do something because it is 'expected'. Many young men think they must get good paying job and marry. Who is to be more respected? The waiter...

This thread is going to be divided not by ideas but by geography. Those Don Juans in Europe, especially Eastern Europe, are probably wondering where these '*****s' comments are coming from. I live in America and I can tell you there is truth to what they say. It is not a hatred for women...

No. Not an objectivist. But using literature as a source of wisdom is not a bad idea. What addition to the transformation of young man into demi-god is needed if not a touch of wisdom? This is from Mencken, written early in the 20th Century: No matter what you believe, we are all in...

No. A lot of women will wish that the Don Juan is, just to ease their conscious. "What!? He isn't totally smitten with me? He *must* be gay!" Imagine if you used that line if a girl turned you down for a date. You go, "What!? Are you gay?" Interesting how its asked ONLY when men don't do what...

Long long ago, before I found this website and all, I did have female friends. Currently, I have no female friends as female friends seem to be an impossibility for me now. Every girl I *try* to be friends with wants to date me, screw me, etc. But what about girls who already have a guy...
