I stumbled upon MGTOW about two years ago after searching for answers why I wasn’t good enough for a woman to keep around. That was after a failed summer of dating about 15 chicks in 3 months after a long break from dating; and primarily because a couple of the “good ones” pulled the same ol’ shenanigans a few months apart and it left me really searching for answers.

Two years of red-pill understanding later my life has vastly improved and one of the reasons for that is MGTOW. After realizing all the BS that comes along with chasing women, I realized I needed to make some major changes to my life.

Five years ago in 2012, I noticed an anomaly in the real estate market in the small mountain town I grew up in, in Southern California. The ratio of rental income to the average homes sales price worked out to a 10 year (120 rented months) payoff of the purchase price and so I picked up a property with two homes on it, and rented one, which pays the mortgage, while fixing the other. I kept living in the condo in Orange County I bought in 2010 because that is where all those “hot beach babes” are… There is virtually no prospect in the mountains, which is why I moved out when I was 20.

After MGTOW red pills and realization, I made the decision last fall to move to the mountains and rent my condo in Orange County, essentially living mortgage free. This has helped my health, mental-state and overall well-being in so many ways. It really is incredible what not caring about women and what women think can do for a mans life.

Instead of worrying about paying $2000 a month to live in a posh neighborhood with that good zip code in order to “attract” the women, I am now living for myself and loving it, and doing it mortgage-free.

Today I did a couple jobs here in the mountains and then went out towards the desert side to the granite rocks and went climbing up the boulders to the top of the ridge. I felt real free just climbing, picking lines and routes up the rock.. Last week, because of the massive winter we have received in California, I had to rent a jack hammer and blast out my basement floor to install new drainage. Doing simple man-work like that makes me fell like a man and it makes me feel alive. This is the stuff I can’t do while living in a condo in the city. And personally, I like working on my house and fooling around with power tools…

Now, i’ve got a nice big yard for my dogs now and hundreds of miles of trails close by to take them out hiking and backpacking on. I’ve really made some incredible improvements on my life and my health and it is all because I realized what a scam dating women was, and a good portion of that is due to MGTOW.

So thank you all for you knowledge, life lessons and words of wisdom here, and thanks to Keymaster for making it happen. This really has changed my life for the better.
