“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
What does it mean to you to be rich?
- Thread starter englishman
- Start date
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Actually I for one could care less about money.Espi said:Stop living the lie and admit that you LOVE cash...having more money is what being rich is all about...MORE MORE MORE...one of my favorite words...
Being rich for me is obtaining all the knowledge in the world. There's a latin phrase that is a great example of this:
"Scientia est potentia"
That's great but completely unrelated. I was discussing how a person's value to society cannot be summed up in a dollar amount.Espi said:Stop living the lie and admit that you LOVE cash...having more money is what being rich is all about...MORE MORE MORE...one of my favorite words...
If you had two choices: less or more money in your wallet...which would you pick? If you're honest, you'll admit that MORE cash is the right answer. If you chose less, you're a fvucking liar.
And, as for your purist ideals about inventors, etc., I'd rather be American Airlines than the Wright Brothers...originality is highly overrated IMO.
I'd rather be rich than original.
Read it again.
Danger and Alle, you guys both make good points but I wanted to elaborate:
Let's look at pharmaceuticals. Drug dealers sell illegal drugs all day long, higher then the cost they invested to obtain them. Drug dealers are not making a good contribution to society as a whole. However, doctors and hospitals are.
Again, the argument should center on "profits." What do you have (product, service, knowledge, etc) that someone would buy for more then it costs for you to create or offer it?
Also as far as a person's "worth," well, it depends on if we are talking about in terms of the IRS or in terms of God. In God's eyes, he's no respecter of persons, so we are all equal in God's eyes. We are all equal in terms of the US Constitution. In terms of the IRS, in terms of business, your value is tied to the amount of revenue you generate. In the eyes of the IRS and the business world, Lebron James is much more valuable then a 5th grade Teacher.
No it doesn't. Let's not even think of "money" as the green stuff with dead presidents on it. In this case, think of money as "profits". Profits are obtained through "selling" something higher then it costs. When I "sell" someone something that generates a profit, it does not necessarily make a good contribution on society as a whole.Danger
Money DOES represent the direct contribution a person makes to society as a whole.
Let's look at pharmaceuticals. Drug dealers sell illegal drugs all day long, higher then the cost they invested to obtain them. Drug dealers are not making a good contribution to society as a whole. However, doctors and hospitals are.
This isn't true either. I know MANY artists who make alot of money. Inventors that make alot of money. Motivational speakers and counselors that make alot of money. Protestors can make alot of money if they find a way to turn their protest into a radio show, talk show, or something to generate revenue by bringing together like minded individuals (i.e. Glenn Beck). And all teachers are not poor, it depends upon where you TEACH. I know many teachers making over six figures a year.Alle Gory
What about artists? What about inventors? What about motivational speakers and counselors? What about protesters who stand against abuse and injustice? What about mathematicians, teachers, the founders of Wikipedia? They have little to no money, yet they contribute.

To answer the original question, what does it mean to me to be rich? First off, I laugh when people always jump up and say, "Money doesn't mean anything to me!" I've been homeless, trust me, when you have NO MONEY, you can't do shyt which includes feeding yourself.
So let's get real, money does matter. Being rich to me is operating at the highest efficiency and obtaining the best results I could obtain in all areas of life:
> Financial
> Academic
> Fitness/Health
> Social Life
> Love Life
> Family Life
> Spiritual Life
Financial is listed first because (and I'm going to keep it real, unlike those posting that "money doesn't matter") when your finances are not in order, when you don't have ENOUGH money, that affects all of the other areas.
- If my finances aren't in order, I can't pay for college.
- If my finances aren't in order, the stress harms my health, furthermore, I can't afford to eat properly.
- If my finances aren't in order, I can't have a social life. I can't afford to go out, buy clothes, etc.
- If my finances aren't in order, forget a decent love life with a quality chick.
- If my finances aren't in order and I am responsible for a family? God help me!
- If my finances aren't in order, my spiritual life is harmed because I have low peace, low joy, low fulfillment.
Is money everything? To be honest, I think money is the first step to everything. And when I say money it doesn't have to be a million dollars, but you need a decent level of income to be able to live a fulfilled life. Please STOP with the "money doesn't mean anything to me" bullshyt.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Sure, let me get a bank first.Espi said:Great! Since you could care less about money, please PM me your bank routing and account numbers. Or just make out a check to "Espi" for all remainding funds in your account.
Danger, well, from a "majority of businesses" standpoint I guess you could say that. But:
> Strippers
> Bars
> Night Clubs
> Porn
> Drug Dealers
> Illegal Gun Trade
> Bad Salesmen
All of these above make profits or "money" but do they make a good contribution on society as a whole? Again, the entire phrase of "making a good contribution on society as whole" I think is just a wrong phrase to use. Most businesses don't operate in a way that benefits the entire society, instead they work to benefit a sector. And the basis of their operations is profitability. How many businesses do you know that work to benefit all of society instead of a specific sector or sectors? Does Coke work to benefit all of society or just to benefit the passtime "thirst" quench? Does the NBA work to benefit all of society or just the sports fan?
Whether you make a good contribution, bad contribution, no contribution, or a semi-contribution, in this case it really doesn't matter. All that matters is that you profit, you earn more then it costed for you to offer/create it, that's what it comes down to.
