Thread: Flex your MGTOW lifestyle a bit here

Lamborghini Aventador, vacations, video games. I just recently moved to a very gun friendly state. Hint: Constitutional carry. Having fun acquiring guns, shooting, make some modifications so they shoot better in my hands. Ammo price is high but whatever.

Yolo on stonks and crypto. Can live anywhere in the world. No need to be stuck in a place or be near people you don't enjoy.

I learned the best thing you can have are good experiences. I can be materialistic too. I love nice things. But I have to remember that they must bring incredible experience. If I crash my car right now, so what? It brought me great experiences. I'll buy another one. Vacations? Those create memories and can never be taken away. Video games? I don't need to tell you guys how fun those can be.

Open to all things. Don't care what it is. Travel, toys of any kind, cars, whatever.

I'm into vintage stereo equipment. I've got a real sweet system from the 1970's. Vintage Harmon Kardon receiver. 12" 3way speakers, turn table for vinyl records, and 5 disc cd changer. I am a thrift shop music junkie. Always stopping at resale stores, garage sales for vinyl LP's or CD's. I just love how much music I can buy for a dollar or two.

Since I was old enough to drive I've been into cars and hot rods. Owned many over the years. Got rid of it all 10 years or so at divorce time. No choice. Just a few months ago I righted that wrong. Purchased a super mint 5 speed manual, V8, original 21,000 mile, 1991 Camaro convertible. I live in a rural area. Lots of amazing country roads to blast around on. Incredible fun road trips.

About 10 years ago I was in a bankruptcy attorneys office after divorce. I was within a hair of needing to do so. Managed to avoid going down for that. With the ex wife gone from my life and wallet. I think I've come back from the ashes damn well. Paid cash for the toys. Plus I didn't have to discuss it, ask permission, or beg anyone to buy the stuff. I am way more proud of that than anything else.

Travel, travel, travel! I just do not go to a country once. My wanderlust sends me to that country many a time, until my heart says, enough! I just love to explore new, less-travelled places. I travel solo most of the times, but have been fortunate enough to be accompanied by like-minded buddies a couple of times in the past. Whenever I’m abroad, I love to rent a motorcycle and get lost in the wilderness of the countryside of that country where nobody speaks my language, nor do I theirs. Not a word of English too.

I live with my parents so I make it a point to show them some of this world as well, every now and again whenever they’re suffering from their wanderlust.

I’ve done all the regular “bucket-list” items that were in my bucket list long ago. Skydiving, parasailing, paragliding, hot air ballooning, bungee jumping, scuba diving, white river rafting, Grand Canyon, Pearl Harbor, Ha Long Bay, Koh Phi Phi, Niagara Falls (both US and Canada sides), Taj Mahal, Angkor Wat etc. come to mind right now.

How can I forget motorcycles? Fucking motorcycles are MY TOY! I still own 5 of them and sold 2 in the last 6 years. Yes, I had a total of 7 at one point of time. Only have one car that’s in perfect condition even after 12 years of rugged driving. Bought it brand new just like I did my motorcycles.

Oh, and pussy! I NEVER come back home from that country until I’ve sampled the best pussy that country has to offer. Again, my pussylust sends me to that country many a time as well. This includes both whores and regular gals of that country.

Now my lil head is asking my bigger head as I type this, “Where to, next?”

That’s how I spend my money!

Cheers!!

Guitars. I have a Takamine Pro Series 1 P1NC (made in Japan), and a Fender Player Series Stratocaster (Made in Mexico). I will soon have a Strat from Fenders USA-based custom shop where they make the most high-end Fenders.

For me, my thing is going to gaming and anime conventions

Although they got super cucked in recent years(Attention seek women) it still fun being so passionate about the things I enjoy.

Due to various mental health issues, I was as good with my money as others onher are but with enough hard work I am in a place where I can stack cash. Despite that I am always able to at least go to a convention or two

You guys really love your guitars, man! Good, very nice. Cheers from the East, Tig!

Mate, as long as you can stack cash now, who cares. Good on you for still finding a way to service your hobbies!

If you do not mind, which country do you hail from? Not being nosey, just wondering which country is big on anime conventions APART from USA.

I miss my mint antique Gibson SG. It was like having power steering for your fingers, especially after putting down a 12 string! It was like zero g's compared to Jupiter's gravity, in fact, Jupiter would made good nickname for that 12 string! It's like jogging in steel-toe work boots!

No debt, multiple paid-for crapbox cars (newest is 20 years old), no pressure to "keep up" with anybody or buy my former wife a new SUV because that's what her friend has (financed, of course, when she was unemployed--apparently you can't work if you're a female with PCOS--and her man was making $15/hour and commuting an hour one-way to work). I just resurrected one of my beaters after it sat for about 3 months with a valvetrain issue. Spent a couple of not unpleasant half-days working on it, no pressure from anyone to hurry up so we can go meet people I don't even like. Took my time cleaning and inspecting parts, repaired the problem, saved myself about $800 in shop labor.

As a hobby, I'm working on research into extracting usable heat from compost. I can only imagine what my now-ex would say about a multi-ton compost pile in the yard (and the County can't say anything; agricultural zoning). Nobody is going to complain if I buy a thousand feet of PEX tubing and other parts, or I get a truckload of wood chips dropped off.

I'm working on many other projects, too. Household renovations (as I have time, and the way I want to do them); repairing broken audio equipment bought cheap; building hydrophones; collecting oddball records (I'm not one of those "vinyl is better" people; if a CD is available, I'll get that--but these are test pressings, transcription discs, etc.); gardening... all sorts of stuff. Not big on travel, though. I've done that in the past, but I have so many projects that those are more interesting to me.

Thanks, I am from the states but I know other western counties have anime cons too. The one international anime convention I would like to visit is on in Australia. They seem like some legit blokes

I come from very humble beginnings (original job paying ~£300 per month). On track to be on a 6-figure salary within the next 5 years (which is hard to get in the UK). I live the "ghost" MGTOW lifestyle. Friends outside of work are almost non-existent these days, but that allows me to live without hearing about all the BS and drama that "normal" people go through. I have a few old girlfriends in my phonebook in case I ever need some female company.

Spent the last few years working on my career, banging hot chicks, buying a car that looks like a family car but drives like a luxury car, and travelling Canada/US/Europe.

Need to do: work on health and fitness.

Ah man, tell us about your jeep, I had a cj2a that I loved. Went every where in that thing as a youngster. It had an old school generator/ regulator that no-one knew how to fix, so it was push start most of the time. Block eventually cracked, and bieng young and stupid I got rid of it.

Oh hell, was a reply to Offscouring....how it ended up here? Sorry folks..

Interesting... It seems like it was a former life but was likely 25yrs ago a construction company that I worked for got a job to demolish an old marina/bar/disco that had a fire. As there were financial problems and questionable causes for the fire the building sat burned out for 5 years likely. There was not much to salvage, but I grabbed the vinyl. It had no fire/heat damage, but all the paper was stuck like cement from water damage. I slowly soaked the paper free, most of the centre labels stayed intact. I was surprised how well most of them played considering what they had gone though. Most are singles or are full recording on one side and just instrumental on the other. I had never seen anything like it before or since.

A few years ago, I ventured back to visit family and I stopped in to see my house. My tenant still kept all the old vinyl. I told him to sell it off and free up some space, he wasn't interested as he only uses a fraction of the house, doesn't need the room.

That odd ball shit on vinyl is still out there.... It's just a matter of finding it.

Mine isn't much and not overly exciting but here goes.
Own my home and vehicles.
Got money saved.
Go where I want and do what I want in my free time.
Go to the gym, help with some local charity work, toy with ad designing.
Eat what I want. Try different things in the kitchen because I feel like it.

No one nagging at me or making fun of what I like or treating me like I am less than they are.

At 77 yo, I don't party anymore; usually in bed by 10:00 or 10:30. Wife died about 3 yr ago after 45 yrs of marriage. She wasn't a bad woman, growing up in the 60's when women could actually become worthwhile wives, though mine was about as sexual and an old nun. Any way; sold the house and took a small apartment. Do what I want, when I want, the way I want. A freedom I never knew while married. Got back into local community theater, which a great love of mine; directing a show right now, as a matter of fact.
Still work part time; about 25 to 30 hrs a week; extra money is nice, of course. Bought me a little Miata, SUPER-CHARGED!!!! Wow! What a ride. Anyway, just living my life as a want; guess you can't ask for much more, really.

I am a minimalist so I hardly own stuff except necessary shit. I am a simple man,I don't have expensive hobbies or stuff.


I am a software engineer so I need computers that run fast. Faster it is,better for me.Also a good headphone does the job for me as I am a music junkie (Metal music,Skyrim Music). The next most stuff that I spend money is food and working out. I eat a lot as I workout a lot but that is nothing compared to buying cars or suits.

I buy cheap clothes,I drive my moms Suzuki car, I live with my parents. Yeah I live with my parents because my father plans to give all the houses to me with inheritance so I will own 4 houses when my grandparents and my father passes away (all residential,not apartment stuff.Totally 10 bedrooms). I don't plan to move out of my parents house unless shit goes wrong. I just need a quiet room to study,read,code. Thats enough for me.

I don't party,smoke,drink or hangout outside.When friends come,most of my expenses are food and drinks in these cases.

I never had fuckbuddies or one night stands in my life so I never had the problem of finding an empty space. I don't have expenses for prostitutes,fuckbuddies or escorts. Porn does the job. Simple,efficient,cheap.


After I finish my army service (probably at the end of 2023) I will build the home gym with the money I have been saving from the army to our main family house so I don't have to pay for gym membership or have to share a squat rack with a thot.


My family is always at my side,even though we talk about marriage they never force me to marry or accuse me of being "gay". We live at village so we are not stuck in 20m^2 shitty square houses or apartments that have views of endless cities. Its all flowers and mountains. I am not forced to move out or get married like an American kid.

As for the boring stuff, I have 3 professions in Software Engineering (Mobile,Web,Desktop Fullstack Developer). So I have no financial problems.

Though no art buff, I do have a signed print of Erich Hartmann and his 109-G. Erich is the top scoring Ace of WW II and all time with 352 confirmed victories. Some guy figured it would take a forty-acre field to park all the planes Erich shot down.

Most German Ace's ploughed into a fight and trusted to skill and maybe a good airplane to get them by. It worked and they ran up enormous scores. But they lost a lot of wingmen too, and Erich considered that a bad trade. He became a master of the sneak attack, and most of his kills never knew he was there. He was a slow starter too, but once he got going, he never quit.

He signed the print in 1992, shortly before his death. At first, I wondered why they were still for sale after forty years. There were not a lot of them made to begin with. But who's going to want one? The Ruski's, the Poles, the Frogs or the Brits? Not likely. Americans like winners, but not when their score is eleven times higher than our best man (Richard Bong with forty victories). A suppose a few Germans would like one, but nostalgia for WW II is probably a hard sell there since we left their country in ruins. Anyway, there's one on my wall. WW II had a lot to do with how my father turned out, and that affected my life.
