Aging is difficult for everyone. But there are some people who make it easy, and others who make it hard. The easiest way to make it hard is by messing around. The older you get, the harder it is to recover from mistakes. Therefore, the cost of messing around is higher. If you’re looking to work hard and age into some form of excess and degeneracy, be careful, it can all be taken away. What’s also dangerous is maturing too late.
You don’t want to “wake up at 30”
That is really crazy, if you think about it. You should be having kids at 31/32, absolute latest. Anything after that and you just waited too long and didn’t work hard enough. I might sound like I’m being extreme but think about it. If you have your first kid at 31, and your last at 39, you’re 57 by the time your last child leaves the house. And that’s if you’re very lucky. 57 is pretty old. You want to be wide awake by age 24/25, and even then, the clock is ticking. Imagine if you crash out at 26, and lost three years to something like prison. The results of that are disastrous for your finances, and kids are not in your future unless you work your but off. Don’t mess up as you pull into your late 20s.
The older you get, the harder it is to learn and do work
This is the problem with falling behind. When you fall behind, you really fall behind. It’s harder to learn something at 25 than 20. And forget about age 15. The older you get, the more work you have to do if you find yourself taking losses. Try to stack up a lot of wins when you’re young and build a streak. Work hard in order to make this happen.
Dating culture has people confused about life
People are too focused on dating for pleasure. This is causing people to miss out on what’s important. Generally speaking, you want to be in a position where you and a partner are able to have things, even if those things aren’t considered to be much. You need to at least be awake and sentient by 25 or 26, or else you’re cooked.
Money matters, but choosing a spouse who works is also helpful
If you can find someone who’s making decent money as a man, this is where you win. If you can make the top 20% of earners and actually find someone who’s also on their grind, you’re winning and you’re winning big. A lot of guys get caught up in the fantasy of pulling the hot girl. It’s possible, but you’re probably just going to want to focus on dating women who earn some of their own money. You’ll attract more solid partners, have better game, and become a person. Your children are also more likely to respect you.
Missing out on money is bad, so is missing out on children
Both can happen. A lot can happen if you don’t contribute to society during your 20s and 30s. My great grandmother used to say not to help any man that you see on the side of the road. I can’t help but agree in a way. Most of them didn’t create enough, if anything at all. Most people who are a part of society don’t end up totally alone in the long run. You also don’t want to be having children too late. 40 comes fast. You have to focus up around 25, 27 at the latest, to be honest. If not, you might find yourself incredibly lonely in the distant future.
Don’t mess around as you get older. Get more locked in and get more serious. You only live one life, you want to get to enjoy all the nice things that come with being alive. Work hard on what’s right when you’re young, that way you can enjoy things when you get even older. It might sound counterintuitive, but this statement becomes even more true as you age. Imagine being a broke 100-year-old. That would be awful. Either way, remember that this is the rough game of life. Focus, and don’t mess around. The consequences get massive as you age.
Thanks for paying attention.
