Things to spend money on instead of....

[Darkevents]

I was having conversation with my friend and he was telling me about Robin Hood and stock trading. I then had a realization that I am blowing my money for shit that won’t benefit my life, i didn’t tell him I drop like $1600 a week on pussy, since I discovered this forum.

After this realization I am more aware of this I have been trying to stop slowly.

So I would like some highly aware mongers to comment some better Things i can spend my money instead of pussy, or ego inflation, dopamine high

What you mention you are spending is not at all unheard of. Not at all.
What else are we going to do? Drop dead and leave it to nieces and nephews? F*ck that!!!

Anyways, if you are looking for something else to spend your money on, might I suggest a rowing machine.
Yes, a rowing machine.
It's a total body workout that is great for both cardio as well as strength.
I spent $1200 on mine back in the beginning of May. Use it 5 days a week.
The best part is since I spent the money on it, I feel obligated to use it, so as not to waste the money.
In 4 more months I'll either be in phenomenal shape, or dead from a heart attack. Solid win either way!

Sometimes when things don't work out for the best, ie B+S, cancelled appointment etc I stop by the local home improvement store and buy a nice new tool. Weather it is a drill, saw, or a new lawn mower, at least I know I will get 20x more time from it then that 2 hour session I just blew off.

This sounds like an affiliate post. Are these even allowed on the forums?

We all spend money on stupid expenses, I bet your friend does too.

Umm if it’s an afffliate post I would post a referral link or something. Yeah I bet he spends his money on useless things also. I just need to control my self, because I run my own business I feel like I have nothing to loose but idk man it’s fun tho going to these places

Sorry phone acted up, meant to say its not just the money but it's also the time we've spent doing this.

1. Stocks
2. Invest in a piggy bank

You could just do one less session a week and use that money to buy stocks instead. No need to go cold turkey lol. I gotta cut back too, not saving/investing at all these days. If I could land a civvie girl, the money I would save

YOLO. Actually enjoy the money instead of earning it and leaving it for someone else who may not deserve it.

If you got kids, make sure House is paid off and education funds are avail. Spend the rest on whatever makes you happy. Be it fast cars or fucking lots of hot women normally out of your league.

First rule of personal finance is to pay yourself first. If you max out your 401k annually and put it in some low commission market index, you'd be set for retirement (assuming average 9% annual returns, 6-7% returns after inflation). Anything left over after that and paying off your bills, you should be care free to spend how you like. Better to whoremonger early on while your dick still works naturally than to have 5 mil at retirement and a risk for a heart attack at the amp.

General rule of thumb,when a provider gives you a stock tip or tells you to open Robinhood, I’d smell market top

1600 a week? You monger 5 times a week?

2nd the workout stuff. If you invest in adjustable weight dumbells, you don't need a gym membership at all. If not, a cheap and easy method is a pull up bar and (legit) power bands. Pull ups work the entire upper body like nothing else and the bands can assist that and work the lower body as well. Just go on youtube, plenty of examples.

As for enjoying yourself, cut the visits in half, put 800 a week away in an envelope for 2/3 months. When Columbia, Brazil or (insert tropical/Caribbean location where mongering is an acceptable part of the tourism) opens ups, you get to live like king and do it guilt free. If you can work remotely from out there and invite some friends even better. Thats my plan anyway

All my hobbies are expensive. I have a decent sized firearm collection, a small guitar collection and just started with watches. The good part about all those is i shouldnt loose too much money when I decide to sell lol
