Why are normies able to have a family, kids, wife/husband etc on normie incomes, and millions of people do this, but there are incels on here with software engineer jobs earning like 4X the normies couple combined income and claiming they dont feel like they will ever make it and refer to their income/investments not being high enough.


Example

>average normie household income like 80k (50k man, 30k woman)
>has house, has kids, goes out
>average incel biz poster (320k)
>cries about not having enough money

>> No.56626661

Because most people live paycheck to paycheck, are in huge debt and wagecuck till death.

Meanwhile autists save money like paranoid doomer preppers, reject debt any way they can and desperately try to find ways to not have to wagecuck till death, or at all. So we hoard money and gamble on shitcoins for the chance to get to enough money to "make it", which literally just means having enough money to never have to work again. This is also why "six figure hell" is often repeated on this board, yes it's a considerable amount of money, but not really enough to stop working.

Never working again is a noble goal but when six figures isn't enough it isn't because you don't have enough money, it's because it will never be enough money, and you will probably never stop chasing the ellusive goal of "making it".
In the end, it ends up being a version of horseshoe theory, where the autists that hoard every penny and the normalfags that live paycheque to paycheque end up spending their entire lives in much the same way - ever chasing a carrot on a stick.

Normies are low consciousness, susceptible to cluster B personalities, and have small horizons. They can live paycheck to paycheck and pump kids out. Their ultimate goals in life are to keep up with the Jones' and the males are all simps and are programmed to be actively hostile to non-simps. They don't need to think ahead and existential questions are completely foreign to their mindspace.
Most anons here are intp/j, above average IQ, and susceptible to cluster A. Many are acutely aware of their fate as slaves of global financial capital and corrupt politicians. If you're even moderately intelligent you most likely seriously overestimate how common higher-order reasoning is.

Many good reasons in this thread.
Also think about this. When you walk into any given Wal-Mart, how many women do you see with a child of their own that you would have never stuck your dick into? Maybe it's none, but for me there are countless cows everywhere that I consider unbreedable, yet someone has bred them. There are alot of weak willed men out there with standards for themselves so low that they would rather spend the entirety of their lives keeping up an image of what their immediate neighbour and family thinks is correct. Even if that means being in debt and working in terrible conditions, they want to hold onto their cookie cutter shit and easy fuck obese woman. A majority of the population lacks metacognition. They are incapable of genuinely thinking of why they are thinking of something. You have one existence where your time can not be retrieved, and you want to lock down decades of it to some narrative that not even you truly give a shit about? You see in time as you get older. If people actually gave a shit about their children they would be present all of the time, they would build a fortune beforehand to ensure the highest quality of life possible for them. Most people mowing their grass in the suburbs are just bad actors.

>> No.56627375

yeah they're just coping
money isn't their problem
everyone including them knows this

in reality they could easily get below-average women with that amount of money, but they want supermodels etc., which, given their demerits (ugly, beta, lame job, awkward, autism spectrum tendencies, etc. etc.) requires more like 7-8 figures and a good deal more effort, plus it entails the risk of getting divorce raped, and being like what i described, they are very risk-aware and risk-averse

another way to look at it is as having very low reproductive drive, so they're unwilling to make the necessary moves and sacrifices to have a family and kids
that's what the original idea of "manchild" typically means, a man who won't grow up and, you know, "man up"
normies think shitting out a bunch of kids without any kind of preparation for how they'll raise them and support them is the pinnacle of maturity because they only understand literal biological maturity

this is making me remember when about two years after i had left highschool a year early, i learned from someone or other that the dumbest, borderline retarded kid in my grade-year (who had been held back) already had a wife and 2 kids
so at only age 20 with no money, he already had your smart secretly rich /biz/ incels totally beaten by any normalfag's standards

It's not so much that they want supermodels as much as they want a type of girl that no longer exists. Girls that were considered mid a decade ago that nerds would have gone for have all turned into slampigs, and the girls higher up on the totem pole than them squander their natural beauty in favor of getting DSL's and other degenerate plastic surgeries. So now you either have low quality obese women that would make poor wives since they won't even take care of themselves, let alone your kids, or girls that are mid (but might have been really pretty if only they didn't ruin their bodies with TikTok surgeries) thinking they're the hottest shit and acting like there's always going to be a better man around the corner for them.

Incels know this, so on one end you have nerds settling for hamplanets, and on the other end you have the nerds scrambling to looksmaxx at gyms thinking they can get a "hot" (mid) gf

I tell you what. I wouldn't have wasted my 20's on a stupid CS degree if it wasn't for the chance to maybe one day be able to be a provider to a wife and children. All I've ever wanted to do was be their hero and take care of them. Graduated, started making tons of money, learned that women never wanted that lifestyle in the 1st place. Worse, they were trained in the very same university to see that lifestyle as a failure (for them) and men as slavekeepers of them. So now I'm rich with nothing, but it really goes to show you that society is advanced by sub-8 men who take the provider / struggle route. Chad has no motivation to study or try.

Hence, I will retire on 500K hopefully in the next few years and go back to being a NEET. If I had a wife and children I'd keep waging, spending 100% of my paycheck on them. But there's really no reason to continue after I reach 500K.

For a guy with a gov job I can tell that we'r not really running free market society where market solves everything. There are huge gaps and corruption opportunities if you know the law and are friends with right people.

I'm from one of eastern europe countries and people write rules so their in a way that their buddies could win million dollars public procurement contracts and everything is legal by law. Obviously in real marketplace there are companies who can do the same for half the price but you know ;) . People with power are like gods. With right tools they can make more money in a day than you do breaking your back for a year. And it's all technically legal.

Why, as a man, would you want to not work? What are you going to do all day? That's gotta be the gayest thing I've ever heard. The real goal is to generate cash flow that you control. To do that you need to build real skills.

It's because looks, money, etc aren't actually what's stopping people from finding relationships.

It's personality. Which is the hardest thing to change, so I don't blame you all for finding excuses.

Yes, it is mostly sloth. Depression is a sin. Industry is a virtue.

All their income goes to paying down their debt to keep up appearances. A lot of people have little retirement, savings, or other assets besides their house.

Ever watched Malcolm in the Middle?
That will be your life if you don't have enough income/capital to raise your kids correctly.
Not even talking about how they will resent you for always being cheap as fuck, never taking them to travel, not being able to pay for a good school, good activities, etc...

Ironic that schizos are becoming paranoid thanks to other schizos who are posting paranoid "it's not enough" shit because schizos are always worried about shit. It's like a schizo loop machine.
