Decline of Functioning Society

[It_Is_My_Time]

God put man in the garden to tend it. Work predates the fall of man and subsequent curse. There is nothing wrong with working hard, what else are you going to do with your life? Sit around and be idle?

Working simply to "be rich" however is definitely a problem...

Proverbs 23:4-5
4 Do not toil to acquire wealth;
be discerning enough to desist.
5 When your eyes light on it, it is gone,
for suddenly it sprouts wings,
flying like an eagle toward heaven.


The Apostle Paul to Timothy
(1 Tim 6:6-10)
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain, 7 for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. 9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.


Hands down, America (with all of it's problems) is still one of the easiest countries to be successful in and anyone in here complaining about how bad it is should just try going to the 3rd world and see how it works for them there. Folks (and entire countries) are poor for a multitude of reasons and one's attitude/outlook is the main reasons. Can-do and never-say-die attitudes, along with a healthy dose of faith in God built the west. Winners win and whiners whine.

Depends on what you mean by "successful" and then looking at the trajectory of this country, I would disagree with it being on the easiest.

If I was wealthy, I would move to Europe, have kids, and spend my time with them and working very low stress work to keep my mind busy. But I am not at that level yet, so I keep working my 7 day a week schedule.

In the west, the satanic elites and their lap dogs win. The rest of us are getting crushed, whether you want to face up to this reality or not, it is still the truth.

If your position is correct, naming an easier one should be quite simple, right?

Maybe you should take some advice from @magoo, it sounds like he's already living your dream life...

So do you still claim to be one of the wealthiest men on this particular forum? How can you be getting crushed but still be uber successful? I guess it depends on your definition of success right?

The "satanic elites and their lap dogs" don't win, unless you let them. Reject their false dichotomies and take the third or fourth option. Trust God and serve Him, Jesus already promised to provide for the needs of His children but we must do our part.

It depends on who you are and what you define as "success". Personally, I want to move to Europe, so that is what I would consider "successful". If @magoo wants to respond or PM me, I would appreciate his thoughts.

I wouldn't call myself, or anyone I associate with, "uber successful". Those people like away from the problems of society, in their high rise condos, or their estates, and their great grandchildren can't spend the money they have.

It isn't if I let them win, men sit around and do nothing while they flood the country with third worlders who destroy our society. I am just trying my best to get away from it. I think the poll showed nearly 30% of this forum still thinks voting will change anything, which simply tells me things are going to have to get a lot worse before there is even an attempt at a pushback. I just want to get away from it, that is all.

Meh more of the same.

The better thing to do is ignore all this and just focus on making yourself a better Christian, find a suitable woman, work and have kids and stop worrying about all this shit in the world outside of your control.

There's plenty of people doing it all over the country.

Enough with the sky is falling bullshit. It's beyond tedious.

Bullshit. A real man needs nothing. He can live in a cave with nothing like an animal. You're a pussy who needs a women and money and a nice house and a "retirement plan" to live comfortably and to be "happy." You and your desperate need for a woman know nothing about reality. Why? Because you're a millionaire who still lives with his parents. What a fucking clown. Your desperation for a women and money is pathetic. The very definition of a cuckold simp.

Complete lies and an utter distortion of reality. I've got less than 300K in assets and have slayed more 7+ poonanny than a momma's boy incel like you could ever do in a lifetime (not proud of it). Like @It_Is_My_Time you are obviously a 40 year old loser who has no control over his life. A perpetual victim who blames the "government," "society," "women," "Australia/America," "immigration," and "boomers" for all his defeatest, self-inflicted wounds.

Victim, victim, victim. You can't lock down a woman because you're a clown with nothing to offer except money and "I'm living with my parents until 2026 to save money so I can buy your love," and I'm not locking down a woman because I choose not to because I don't enjoy their company. The difference between us is that I can live in my car with $20 to my name while getting a woman anytime I want, and you can't find one woman in a sea of 4 billion of them because you have zero game and because you have unrealistic, narcissistic "standards."

Dude, shut the fuck up. You’re referencing your previous sexual encounters (fornication) and “game” (a tactic to fornicate) as some sort of “posture” over a man who is seeking a virgin wife (which is wholesome). Claiming “not proud of it” is tongue in cheek and shows a lack of true repentance. Furthermore, there is nothing wrong with living with someone’s parents to save money, in the Bible God even recommends living with parents until marriage, as if somehow this is a bad thing.

This mindset contributes to the degenerate, promiscuous, fragmented society we live in, and is disgusting, you should be ashamed of yourself. Perhaps such shame is the reason for attacking @Australia Sucks instead of rooting for a Christian brother’s success. Would explain calling his goals unrealistic, since they’re unrealistic for some grumpy old man in his 50’s who is jealous and bitter.
