Andrew Tate. DONE.

[stuntman mike]

i watched my wife struggle from no job to bank teller, through periods of no job, and busting her *** to get her bachelors and then her masters while raising our kids and going back to work full time. she’s a pretty high exec at the bank now and makes more than twice what i make. she always tells me i can quit/retire but i like my job and i get free medical for the whole fam. we have zero problems with her making more than i do.

 

[wayniac211]

Has anyone HERE said they wouldn't want a woman that makes the same/more than them?

it would be nice. But unfortunately it doesn't always happen. There’s guys out here working three/four jobs to take care of their family and don’t follow tate and his antics. It’s not about who makes more cheese. it’s about being your partners best cheerleader and always making her feel tall never small

 

[deusavertat]

She’s leave the house. I’m sleeping. Wakes up still sleeping. Wakes me up in anger, “nah I can’t do that I’m busy”

*proceeds to lift for 2 hours and then watch YouTube for one after

“You aren’t busy!”

I figure it’s best for our relationship if I stop taking 5 month lay offs.

Dude even if its working at starbucks you need to get out of the house ASAP.

My wife's step dad has a job like that were he gets laid off for months then rehired. He spends those months smoking weed and eating horribly. His wife, my wifes mom doesnt work either so its ok.

I’m not working at starbz and effing up the unemployment.

I got a winter job now that pays as much as summer so it’s worth it to work now.

Oh yeah I forgot about the weed, that was non stop in the winter as well.

I did unemployment enjoyment for 7 winters. Now I’m like f it I’ll just work and stop working earlier in life.

I get what he’s trying to say. His delivery isnt good though

nah, the quality of his delivery & the overall message is kinda irrelevant…the content isn’t that complicated. ain’t no way guys that are traveling out to foreign locales are going to be disciplined if they don’t have to be, such types of unregulated ‘marketplaces’ find their level quite naturally…if the price becomes prohibitively expensive there eventually will be less ‘business’ and given the profile stereotypical consumers…their whole point in traveling to these places is that the exchange rate gives them leverage; as such there will be competition that in effect will raise the costs/expectations

i don’t think discernment & the local economy should be their main/primary concern being a relatively ‘monied’ person in a country where they are a foreigner

Same, I’ll be done by 55. But she used to make more than me and probably will again soon.

I’m good on the broke or no goals ones.

Word! So many dudes at my job tell me that they’d “never LET my wife work or make more money than me!”

Why would I want a partner with no life goals, spending all my money, sitting at home being fat and sassy? Girrrlllll if you ain’t contributing to the rent/mortgage, then we can live separately.

What if I break my back and can’t work for a couple years? We gonna survive off hopes and prayers? She gonna get a job with a 10-15 year gap in her resume? Resume experience: “Kept a clean house. Emotionally supported my partner. Shopped on Amazon.”

Yeah I’m good on that

I lived in NY, I worked part-time in a bakery in a supermarket

The head baker was making like 65K, his wife was a teacher with a Masters making 130K

He is the happiest dude I have ever seen. All his homies in the store used to tell him **** like "how do you feel like a man when your wife bringing home so much more"

Mans used to just say, "when I go on my vacation to the Bahamas next week, I'll text you how it feels"

Dude flooded their fantasy hockey group chat with pics of him on the beach. He was built like Tony Soprano, twice as hairy, was rocking his wife's sunglasses, sipping on daiquiris with them mini umbrellas in it. Loving ****ing life

So I was making about 120k, long time GF makes around 70k. Both her parents just passed away. She’s getting about a $2 million inheritance, plus she just got recruited to a different job and her salary will be $140k.
The 2 months ago she told me “do you want to just work part time or step down at your job so you have more time to do the things you love?”

I stepped down at my job so got damn fast! Making 66k now. Dudes were asking me how the hell I can let my girl be the breadwinner? We’re taking 4 European/tropical vacations in the next 9 months. I think I’ll be alright

the idea that a man should support his woman/be the main income is just a more traditional mindset, that said many women (traditionally minded or not) would, in fact, prefer a man that exhibits that financial ‘superiority’ if not explicitly the mindset…every relationship will its own dynamics & there are always a confluence of things involved in how things play out, but in general it’s just more ‘acceptable’ for men to be making the money & that’s the way most women would prefer it, doesn’t mean women don’t or won’t entertain other less preferential situations…more power to those men that make it work

i think one of the reasons finances end up being the cause of so many breakups/divorces is that the women didn’t really like the dude like that…if men find the ones that are actually solid & believe in the guy being their best option but the way people are getting together/meeting today and the illusion of viable options is an increasing issue that maybe creates another level of dissatisfaction with what one does choose

 

[WASHED KING]

You know what I want to play devils advocate today. While it is possible to be in a relationship in which the woman makes more money I would argue that relationship working long-term is an exception rather than the norm.

Grifters like Tate are able to exist because there is a large demographic of single lonely young men who have been priced out of the dating market and we as a society haven't put enough emphasis on teaching our young men how to build social skills, communicate, and bring value to others OUTSIDE of their wallet. Tate isn't the only one cashing in on these incels, its more youtubers running his same rhetoric, you have the OF models, dating apps etc.

This isn't an issue for NT cause we're all HANDSOME HIGH VALUE MEN, but for the young ones I see it.

you could maybe argue that evolutionarily, long term relationships aren’t really natural/the norm outside the artificial constraints of society…

perhaps, if men were socialized better/differently they could increase their chances/be more attractive but arguably the same issue would persist, which is that women are just more discriminate when it comes to their selection…combine this with women’s expanded life options compared with women of the past where altho they may have had similar options were raised with different values in a different cultural environment/zeitgeist

i dont know if tate is a grifter, per se, because altho i think he is playing up a character for affect, i do think he genuinely believes the things he is saying…opportunist might be more fitting for what he an his ilk are trying to capitalize off; which is a fundamental problem for men generally, regardless of their ability to communicate, attractiveness, financial, social skill and/or status…procreation/women is the thing men have always had to solve

Young men sure af don’t have social skills. My wife knows this younger guy from work, seems cool enough so she introduced him to our mutual friend and they went on a date.

Dude trauma bombed her the whole date and still texts her acting like that.

Congrats to your girl for doubling her pay, she’s killing it.

But yeah I don’t get it, I’m not paying the bills all by myself. Hell no, you wanna live in a dump and drive a dodge neon?

My wife is super career oriented and I’m not. Naturally she just wants to make more money by working harder, looking good and moving up the ladder.

I just look for the highest hourly pay for the easiest job.

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

I don’t care if my girl/wife makes more money than me.

I DO care if she thinks that because she makes more money than me I’m inferior and she can boss me around. That ain’t happening.

I think it’s really that simple.

 

[oidreez]

Statistically speaking men make more money than women and we all know this so you guys who keep saying "my GF/wife makes more than me" are exceptions

And it's just wild to me to see a guy say he prefers not making a lot of money. Once again, exceptions.

not that i'd necessarily disagree but i wouldn't make an anecdote a proxy for young men in general...

it really is that simple...but given the way economics is a power dynamic if a woman is making more bread why shouldn't she be the boss? and unless that dude has some equity to that woman or has enough frame/value elsewhere, to the extent that woman has a modern competitive mindset, she is likely to feel a way about having to support a man, which could manifest in more nagging, decreased attraction, more dissatisfaction etc.

the claimed statistics on divorce & sexless marriages/infrequent sexual activity are probably related

Statistically speaking men make more money than women and we all know this so you guys who keep saying "my GF/wife makes more than me" are exceptions

And it's just wild to me to see a guy say he prefers not making a lot of money. Once again, exceptions.

while it still true that on average men make more than women , this is definitely changing and as that gap closes women will continue to make different choices in terms of who?what they will accept

 

[Air Champa]

Society has/is changing and men aren't. That's the root of all these problems. You still got cornball *** dudes wanting to be Spartans and go back to when men could be real men. I can see these dudes one day pushing 60+ still going to the clubs and screaming at women half their age about "the wall" if they don't settle for a good catch such as themselves. It's gonna be sad.

Tate doesn't even really matter cause there will be 100 more like him pop up trying to get that grift money.
