I am in a period of my life that I feel I am in a downward spiral and feel tapped and can't get out of this situation.

No girlfriend, bad financial situation, hate the life that I am living, hate the place I am living in and the people's mindset is very depressing, past failures make me feel inferior to others and make me doubt I will do anything in life.

My only hope is money.

I feel if I acquired lots of it it will solve my problems. I know I will get the "money can't buy happiness" comments but I feel this comment was made up by poor/lazy people who like to say that to feel better about themselves or not feel sorry for themselves and that morals or whatever makes them a better person than these rich fuckers who are actually living.
To be honest there is some truth to it, for example you can't buy somebody's love (technically you can ;) but that is besides the point) I mean you can't make someone like you because you have money if they don't like you already on a personal level you can't do much to change that and that is just a fact of life. But you can ALWAYS use money to increase your odds. Let's be honest guys if you are for example poor you will have a hard time attracting a girl not because you are poor but because you will likely be worried about other stuff like if you are going to eat tonight or not. You wouldn't have time to pursuit hobbies or travel or have these experiences that will widen your persective that WILL help you ALOT in attracting a girl your mindset will be focused on you surviving, and you will likely also develop insecurities and bad minsdets that will lead to bad behaviours around women and you will end up alone. See how money can help you buy love?

This is just one example, I thought about my failures and I linked them to lack of financial stability, bad social experiences growing up and growing in a bad environment/town that. All these led to me feel not enough and just not happy and that led me to post this post.

I feel if I have money I will be able to get out of this rut and live the life I want not was is expected of me and this is another HUGE point.

I think this is for BHW memebers who had nothing and went to making 6-7 figures from their IM business are the ones who will understand me because they were on both sides and will understand. How your live changed after you made money?

Let me tell you something. There's no nobility in poverty. I've been a poor man, and I've been a rich man. And I choose rich every fucking time.

However, money isn't always the answer. people often confuse having money with greed.

Sort your head out, get working hard and the money and trappings will come but think what is more important to you.
Do you place money above family and friends?
 
I did not read everything .

But this is survival of the fittest . You know what your problems are . You are waiting for us to support your train of thought?

Practice going out for a walk every morning and contemplate your life .

This shit is not supposed to be easy .

You judge if money change life. Each person has a different way of thinking. But money always helps when you face a difficult time in your life. I wouldn't compare love and money. Because love is life. But with money you will have a better life, surely.
 
This question was asked before, Yes Money can buy happiness.
 
I'm still poor today, but it's obvious anyone agrees. "Money doesn't buy happiness" might have been true a bunch of decades ago, when life was simpler, and people had less worries, less requirements for life, and less society pressure. You own a house, go work at the shoe factory, come back to your newly wed wife making you fresh potatoes and spend the afternoon with your buddies at the bar. Today you need a car, a smartphone, a computer, a life insurance, college tuition for both yourself and your kids, and the cost of food has since then changed drastically. Let alone the fact that you are constantly reminded of how poor you are in comparison to thousands upon thousands of people who hit it better than you, whether through entrepreneurship, or just invested in bitcoin when it was low.

Money may or may not buy happiness, but being poor guarantees you to be miserable.
 
You can't directly trade money for happiness. But everything enjoyable is on the other side of poverty & money helps fuel your path towards a better life. Of course, i prefer being self-reliant than having to stay broke & blame the dumb life I'm living.

Yes I agree with the life then and now.

I like your comment and you are right about being reminded your poor and this happens in numerous ways from the movies and tv shows to even when you are walking on the streets and seeing nice sports cars and people enjoying their live (or pretending).

The fact remains that being poor guarantees you will be unfilled in life.

I remember that quote very well.

I don't value money above love, but I feel having not enough money will hinder being able to get love.
 
It’s a biased crowd here but anyone who says money can’t buy happiness doesn’t have any.

That is - up to a certain point.

I think a study said it was 89k or something. After that diminishing returns kick in and the work you put in to earn more doesn’t give the same return.

Of course, that varies.
 
Material happiness, yes. Not true happiness.

Material happiness is short-lived and encourages greed. True happiness lasts forever.

Up to a certain point yes and this is why I said it can always increase your odds. It might not directly get you in my example love but can always increase your odds. You can substitute love with anything you want in life.
