The image above is a indicator of my heart-rate in beats per minute at work according to my fitbit, I’m sharing it with you because I wanted to illustrate for any of us still trapped in the traditionalist fantasy of being a workhorse provider that there is nothing romantic about the notion of working to “support a family”, I want to first say that my job is not only physically demanding (I take an average of 10k steps a day or about 8 miles there) but it is also math/chemistry intensive, I am working with hazardous chemicals and I am responsible for calculations that have to be correct the first time every time, the ONLY reason I stay there is because I’m well compensated, and I need the admittedly excellent health insurance. I am there by choice and I want to stay there.

However, my elevated heart-rate clearly demonstrates that I am incurring a stress-load every time I report for work, to give you an idea, and perhaps a little tmi, from 12:00 am to about 8:00 am I’m at work, hence the regularity of the higher heart-rate, at about 10:00 am I took my fitbit off and showered ate breakfast etc, the peak around noon was a little bit of sexy time with my gf (hehe) and the final large dip was me sleeping before heading back to work again. Meaning that my heart rate at work is about half my heart-rate during the very strenuous act of sex, as such I work my 40 hours, and not a minute more, I’m offered overtime, I do not take it…

Guess who does?

Those poor souls who thought it a good idea to knock up some stay at home tradcon house wife because God, or family values or whatever told them it was their life script. Moreover I actually get to keep the fruits of my labor, every last hard earned dollar goes into my bank account, not to a bunch of crap my hypothetical wife would want, not to braces for the kids, not to diapers and formula not to school trips and not to trips to the hair/nail salon for the missus. That is the difference in lifestyle between a MGTOW and a beta provider tradcon, we all still have to make ends meet one way or another, we all still have to bust our asses to pay our bills, but a MGTOW works less, and keeps more of his money, has more discretionary income, and can do whatever he wants on his precious weekend time… keep that in mind folks.
