How have family and friends started treating you after you "made it" financially?
>>
My family (no friends) think I'm gay because I've never had a gf
>>
>>61566197
Nice.
>>
>>61566197
Why do they do this? Don't they know how picky and judgemental women are?
>>
>>61566149
They all want to have sex with me and I'm not sure what I should do.
>>
>>61566149
Seething commie behaviour. I just "had luck", because I keep an eye on my monetary movements. Fuck em.
>>
>>61566149
my dad is proud of me, but is giving me financial advice. it's amusing because he's pretty well off, but he's got a cowardly boomer mindset.
my mom was surprised when i said the number a few years ago. all the "do something with your life" talk ended at that point.
my siblings don't know (there's been a few hints, but i imagine they just think im in the ballpark of 200k)
my grandpa knows, because my dad told him.
the rest of my extended family doesn't really know. i guess grandpa might have blabbed, since he's proud of me or something.

i dunno. it sucks when the only impressive thing about your life is a high net worth. in social situations, you usually do talk about money, but in a roundabout way, like talking about your career or the house you just bought. if you've got neither, then you're automatically a layabout in their eyes.

>>61566149
I will just do one - bitch girlfriends do lose their "well other couples can afford it" card and are forced to eat the "it's not a reasonable purchase" argument. They also get more reluctant to let you go. It's not love, just the "I can't do any better, my friends will be jealous". Being young in hot is still > money^fuckton. Even if they don't know the exact amount and have a vague sense.

>it sucks when the only impressive thing about your life is a high net worth.
The answer to this is to come up with a story that you would like to tell about yourself and then go make it true.
>I started my own xyz business
>I do x charitable thing
>I repair classic planes on the weekends
>I have a racecar shop
Whatever it is, doesn't matter. Just pick out the anecdote that you want to tell about yourself and then go make it true.
Hope this helps.

Essentially this - money is supposed to be the gateway to having a shot at life, most never make that transition though, which isn't surprising.

You are supposed to now pay a boxing coach or go learn languages, get super fit, start a company, etc.

The thing is that those things are usually beyond the make it amount that people here count as made it.

>I started my own xyz business
Might be ok
>I do x charitable thing
Gold-digger magnet
>I repair classic planes on the weekends
Gold-digger magnet, also a dumb-ass hobby - just fly your stupid 172 and call it a day before quadcopter cars come
>I have a racecar shop
many poors do this, only impressive to man

The bottom line is that you basically get fit and educated as a base.

I overcompensate with family that I know has been to hell and back with me and it comes across as shallow. They complain about money but don't really care about it. Like everybody else they hope to wake up with their financial problems solved one day without changing any aspect of their lives. Waiting for miracles. If I ever make it it will be viewed as lucky at best but most likely as a failure of the gatekeeping system.

Not at all.
>Generous nice person before
>Generous nice person now
>Treat people the same way irrespective of money or social status
Why should I change? Why should they change? It's just money.

>>61566840
Can’t you just say that you’re an investor now? That makes it pretty obvious that you’ve got bank, and it registers as a job. Plus it’s true!

Before, NEET
>Nobody cares about me
>Family never speaks to me
>People dont care about what I have to say
>Nobody engages with me

Built a business that gave me a net worth of multi-millions
>Suddenly everyone is interested in me
>Family is always interacting with me
>People are always interested in what I have to say and look at me in the eyes and listen to everything I say and are fully engaged and care about what Im saying
>Everyone constantly engages with me

Lose everything due to business going under
>Nobody cares about me
>Family never speaks to me
>People dont care about what I have to say
>Nobody engages with me


I always thought I had bad social skills, but turns out I didn't, it's hard to have good social skills when nobody cares about you or gives you any time of day, its very easy to have socials skills when people constantly engage with you.

>>61567239
hey poor guy here, social skills are a real thing, maybe your family just sucks and are gold diggers?

don't abandon social skills just yet imo, build both wealth + social skills, it's not about choosing one or the other, they're not mutually exclusive

if you've ever gone to college you see the guy who gets the most pussy isn't the richest kid, it's often times the stoner kid who is crashing on people's couches and poor as shit but is just completely comfortable being in his own skin... a guy who genuinely loves himself even if he isn't perfect and has a core belief that of course he deserves to date the hottest girls

>>61567239
Truth nuke

>>61567239
Apparently the same thing happens when you're good looking.
>>
>>61566149
They offer paid sex
>>
>>61566149
Nobody here has "made it". This is 4chan, where most users are about 16-24.

I am 25, you should have said 25!!!!
>>
>>61566197
I had same issue, I just told them that I am a loser autistic man which gives girls the ick. They try and gaslight me I am not and then I tell them “if they were young like me would they just a guy like me to date” and they shut the fuck up, they don’t bring it up anymore

>I did not make it. I never will. I am a Link Marine

Good looking guy here (trust me bro) it doesn't help if you're an autist. Girls will immediately ignore you if you have no social cache. In the case of random girls approaching you if you can't hold a conversation they get weirded out and walk away from you. Had one girl approach me at a festival who tried to talk to me including making her tits bounce around to get my attention. After her first silo of questions about me in which I gave vague or deflecting answers afraid of why she was asking them I then stood silently in front of her while she tried desperately to hold a smile hoping I would ask her something but didn't until after 30 seconds she said "ooooookay" and ducked out. The short of it is if you can't bullshit and talk nonsense you can't get girls even if you're the best looking guy in the world.
>>
>>61566149
I stopped interacting with them years ago so I don't think they even really know that I've made it.
>>
actually I assume tards that have money inherited it, if you aren't like a doctor or top tier codecel for the money I look down on you regardless of net worth
>>
>>61573433
I look down on doctors regardless of anything at all.

>>61573347
>it doesn't help
>girl shakes her tits in front of you for a full minute
You can't ask for much more. Not much she can do if you just refuse to talk to her. An ugly guy: a) never has that interaction, b) forces the interaction by approaching her and gets a negative response .
>>
>>61566242
they don't care. you're expected to work hard enough to impress them
