"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
If you say money doesn't buy love you haven't seen this!

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

Holy $hitballs, that dude behind him is just handing him stacks of cash. If you aren't happy with a lot of money, you don't know where to shop!

Money doesn't buy happiness.
Money obviously doesn't mean much to that rich Arab, but it doesn't mean much to me either, and I'm almost poor.
Money can buy you pvssy - and it's bought me some - but the high it gives you wears off. It's like any drug: eventually, you sober up and find yourself back at square one.
Simple, fleeting pleasures don't bring meaning to life. They just pass time.
Is that all you want to achieve in your life - to pass time until you die?
Find something worth living for. Something that continues on.

In my opinion, money is the foundation to everything that is called LIFE (on this side of life, not in the afterlife).
I want you guys to name me one thing you can either acquire, grow/develop or maintain that DOESN'T involve money?
- Love for your family? Okay, what house are you going to live in to maintain that love? What clothes are you going to acquire to dress decently to impress the girl in the first place? What date are you going to go on, what car will you drive, when the kids get sick they need health services which means someone should be paying for the healthcare, you have to feed the family, put utilities on for the family, etc. Doesn't ALL of this involve money?
- Health? Yes, you have to pay for health insurance, doctor visits, dentist visits, the right foods, exercise equipment, etc. Doesn't ALL of this involve money?
- Being Spiritual? I don't know how you can be spiritual without getting a copy of that religion's covenant or bible. Last I checked, those weren't free, you had to buy those books. Doesn't that involve money? The temple or church you go to worship in, doesn't that involve money as it's through your donations they are able to build that temple and keep it updated?
- Your Freedom and Peace? Right, as much as America hates them right now, the Cops are a big part of your peace and freedom, and they cost money. What about the military? That costs money.
- Real Friends? Again, with these friends, where are you going to hang out at? Even if you said a freaking tree house, that tree house cost money.
- Happiness? Let's see how happy you stay if you are hungry and can't eat, homeless with no place to stay, have to get around with no transportation, cold with no clothes to put on, etc. All of that involves money.
Money is the foundation of everything because money either allows you to acquire, grow/develop or maintain a relationship, a feeling, freedom, peace, prosperity, good health, a sound mind, etc., etc.

Every time I see these Arab oil sheikhs with these smoking hot broads now I'm always wondering if he's sh!tting on her. Mind you that chick looks Arab and hence probably not a symbol of the decadent and deviant West so I doubt she's a porta potti.

Everything else is nothing. Have you ever bought anything that brought you lasting happiness? Or do you always find yourself searching for something more?The_flying_dutchman said:

Bruh, there is no one thing that will bring everlasting happiness.
My happiness comes from a sense of accomplishment, and money is a good measure of how far I've gone from where I started...

& what is happines? Chemical composition! Receptors have a certain dynamic, that they get used to and you need more and more, thus the ever lasting chase of the dragon for the happiness. Anyone saw happy old people? Money can help accomplish this need, if you ever get sick and tired of your old bugatti veyron you could just buy another ultra supercar.
Speaking of money and love and women, I just remembered this other vid which is equally good!
Got no game and a lot of money?? This is how to get women! https://youtu.be/JXc_HkWgjuA

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

You're both right. Happiness is an emotion, and like all emotions it's short-lived. All I was trying to say is that it's better to search for inner peace than happiness. Inner peace is always within reach.backseatjuan said:

Certainly. I'm not saying that you don't have to work. I just think there is a point of diminishing returns.jimjam said:

There's a lot of ways to make money.
There's a lot of ways to become happy.
But generally speaking, the same things that make a human happy (setting and pursuing worthy goals that are ALSO valuable to others in some way, getting you genuine, positive social feedback, which increases your happiness) ALSO will generally make you a sh!t ton of money.
And those since almost every last one of those oil shieks INHERITED their money, rather than got the pleasure of earning it, they are not happy because of it.
Neither that dude nor the girl in the vid looks too happy.

Great post taiyuu, but I think you're conflating happiness with inner peace.
Plenty of things make me happy: alcohol, drugs, coffee, sex, video games, etc.
The things that you mentioned that bring happiness, I would say actually bring inner peace:
Evolution never stops. By our striving to be better, future generations will be better.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

There is nothing that you can buy that will bring everlasting happiness.
Happiness is a choice.
A poor dude can choose to be happy or he can choose to be miserable.
A rich dude can choose to be happy or he can choose to be miserable...
... the only difference is that the rich dude has more options and opportunities available which can make it easier for him to be happy...
.... therefore, the pursuit of money brings a higher probability of happiness...

Another thing that in and of itself "money" is kind of vague.
Money that has been honestly earned is both a RESULT of happiness and an accurate predictor of FUTURE HAPPINESS.
If you steal money, win money, print money, inherit money, find money etc, all bets are off.
