"statistically, rich people are more likely to own mid grade gadgets and toys, american made second hand cars, and other cost saving "smart choice" products that get the job done just as well but don't waste all their money (which the book argues is a life long pervasive attitude that actually leads to them being rich)
A cnn article recently said that iq was linked to buying cheaper store brands, where low iq folk bought name brand and high iq, college grad and doctors and lawyers were most likely to by generic medicines and store brands."

"You already know what needs to be done. You don't need a doctor. You don't have a disability. You need a reality check. This world is unkind to those with little to no money, one job on the resume, and no college education. Stop looking for advice, dctors to solve your problems, and relying on overworked people to help you. The very thing that you need to do, the very thing you are avoiding is exactly what you need to be doing right now and you know exactly what it is."

I feel like such an outcast. I feel that way. Am I one? I'll never know. I wish I was like everyone else. I wish I had something to belong to. To think and feel the way others do. I wish I wasn't weird, I wish girls liked me. But I am so out of touch with the required behavioral patterns. I wouldn't know how to act the part. I wish I was a simple man, but I can't even sort out my own life. My head is such a mess. I just can't see the world as others. I'm useless, without function, without goals. I wish I had goals. But I don't care for goals. I don't care for anything. I have no strong feelings about anything. I know, that there is nothing I really need, apart from surviving. So I'm not convinced, not sold on things I want from time to time.
The plane ticket to my death was only £25. I was in no rush to live my life. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe you should learn from my demise. Nobody thinks about dying, yet death is right around every corner. I have had so much love to give away. So many people to make happy. And myself too. I was not there yet, even when happiness is a state of mind. It's a shame. I was just starting to figure out all the answers. And I have not known women. How regretful... Maybe I would have changed the world. That's what I wanted.
It's odd. At the age of 24 I was just taking my first steps. Would it have ever changed for me? There are always places for taking first steps. And I'd rather know a little of everything.

Nepasitikėjimas savimi ir perdėtas savikritiškumas yra mąstančių žmonių liga. Kuo mažiau galvosi apie savo trūkumus, tuo mažiau būsi paralyžuotas.
"Man irgi atrodo, kad viena is tavo stiprybiu yra kitoks mastymas ir kritiskas poziuris i dalykus :) Mano pavyzdziai buvo ne patys geriausi. Univeras nera tas faktorius, kuris butinai pades susirasti darba, o svarbiausiu dalyku irgi ismoksi tik pradejes dirbti.
Man labai liudna, kad save vertini prastai. Tikiu, kad su tokia galva ir netradiciniu poziuriu atsidurtum, kur reikia."

How is it possible to think that I'm the best thing to walk this earth, but at the very same time to believe that I'm a useless piece of shit?
"You're being too rough on yourself. When was the last time you praised yourself for anything? You are very bright in the head and you have a very unique way of thinking! This alone can take you wherever you want!"

I have had only one girlfriend. For around two years. And that ended five years ago now. At first I really wanted another one, then, eventually, I would just sometimes long for one, and I would be really sad about not having one, but at all times I knew that I have to learn to be perfectly fine without another person in my life. Now, it feels like I have reached that and I can't believe it, because I doubted it being truly possible.
Not that this is the way to go, just my story.
And the five years wasn't by choice. I have very high standards for women, while at the same time women don't find me a piece of art. Because I'm a weirdo. I've collected a folder of advice that I liked regarding women, I'll send it to you once I'm on my laptop that's in Glasgow. But the thing is, that advice I could not just act on. I had to slowly change my views and, as a result, the way I act in accordance to whatever ideas I chose to believe in. But its not even about that, I'm just wandering off.
It's about the way it is now. At the age of 24 I finally feel that I'm maturing. Only now. With that comes calm confidence. And, as said before, I am fine without the perspective of having a girlfriend now. There are other things that I want to put first now. For example, I'd rather get a fulfilling career rolling than fixate on looking for a girl. Baselessly, I believe that they will come once the rest of my life is in order. And you know the confidence and needlessness I mentioned earlier? Put those two together, add the little trick where you try to find the flaws in a girl to get her off the imaginary pedestal in your head, and you become a real charmer. Besides, I am the one belonging on the pedestal :) Right now I have meetings with several new friends and I don't even want to call that 'dates' with 'girls', because I am going there not looking for that. I'm just hoping to enjoy MY time in a company of someone attractive and, hopefully, interesting. I met up with one of the friends today and it felt good to not have any intentions. I could really relax and have fun. She is indeed top girlfriend material, but I really didn't let that sway me one bit. I was just having fun listening to a beautiful and very smart person talk to me about things. If we ever happen to date each other, cool. But she's from a different city to start with, and I have no heartache with not dating her (I can't speak about the upcoming meetings). The way I see it, women should be attracted to how I am now. I display no intentions, so they can relax and get curious.
However. There's a next step in meeting women. You mustn't drag things on. If you want to have a woman as your girlfriend, you kind of have to be straightforward about it. You have to make it clear that you want to date her, not to be her friend. And you have to act that way. So if you're just a super nice guy around women, they don't get the message at all.
