Why is the advice so money centric?
Post Body

(Gonna insert a disclaimer that I'm not the biggest fan of capitalism so I might be biased)

Has anyone else noticed how all the advice is so expensive? Its all about money.

"Get your money up bro. If you're on atleast 100k some women will want you for your money" obviously disgustingly misogynistic but also passed off as something you can just 'do'. You can just get into the upper quartile of earners.

"Put yourself out there bro. Get on those dating apps" ...."haven't had much success"...."oh yeah pay for boosts and premium, use em during prime hours like a Saturday evening" so now, you have a tinder premium subscription, a bumble, a hinge, buying for 1 off boosts and super likes. Maybe more? Those are the ones I used and paid for.

"Still no luck? Your problem is you're not jacked bro. Get into shape" as if thats easy. As if the average American isn't pre diabetic. A gym subscription costs money. As someone whos been a gym rat since 16, its not cheap. The diet, the supplements, the pre workout, all expensive.

"Need to '''''''get some style''''' (whatever thats means), reinvent yourself. Buy a whole new wardrobe. Get a new haircut " oh gotcha. I should go out and spend thousands of dollars inventing myself and buying expensive shit.

Usually directed more at girls but sometimes at guys"have you considered plastic surgery" oh thanks for the advice. I'll just come up with the 10 grand for a rhinoplasty since we're all millionaires apparently.

"You're living with mom and dad? Yikes bro. I wouldn't wanna fuck you if you lived w your parents" well I'm trying. Rent is like 2300 a month here ok.

"Get a hobby. Girls love guys who can play guitar" music lessons and instruments, famously very cheap.

Could close this off with some comment about how disgusting having this part of human life commodified so some faceless corporation can turn profit is but I'm not trying to start a political argument.

More so looking for anyone elses thoughts.

Because it puts the onus on the person by implying their condition is a character failing.

Also because the assigned role of socially awkward men is being wallets.
