<h1 class="entry-title" style="text-align: center;">Lifestyle Game For The Broke</h1>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://media.istockphoto.com/id/1621368942/photo/worried-adult-man-sitting-on-ground-at-home.jpg?s=612x612&w=0&k=20&c=sudORnfGSCVyHZNhzt8KaE3U19Etip80Rcifg5N9lOw=" alt="" width="900" /></p>
<p>Lifestyle game is one of the most useful tools for the aspiring player, but it is also one of the least talked about.</p>
<p>A good lifestyle increases all 3 components of your value:</p>
<p>It makes you a man of experience; this tends to bring out leader traits due to the self-possessed nature of an experienced man. The narcissism that comes with always doing things you way also helps this. An awesome lifestyle leads to having exciting stories to tell, and taking your woman to exciting places. Similarly the need to prioritise lifestyle over women leads to occasional emotional roller coasters – making you somewhat unattainable. It also showcases an array of talents that she can brag about to her friends.</p>
<p>The paradox of such a lifestyle is that it has to be for you. Despite everything I’ve just typed about how lifestyle game can get you laid, the most important part of it is forgetting women entirely and creating a lifestyle that you enjoy. It should exist for its own sake.</p>

<p>It may seem as though you always need a large bankroll to make this happen. While stacking chips is important in building your lifestyle and becoming an all round boss, you don’t <strong>need</strong> money to create the foundations. Chasing money without specific aims leads to nesting and an obsession with Ikea. In contrast, a good cheap lifestyle can be developed and nurtured into something incredible. Every young, broke guy should make sure he has this down, then work on money and pussy in tandem. Strong foundations make these two easier.</p>
<h3>The Lifestyle:</h3>
<ol>
<li>Get a hobby. A proper hobby that you are properly passionate about. Violent or competitive sports increase primal value; creative arts and “nerdy” hobbies raise emotional and logical value respectively. If you have a nerdy hobby don’t hide it, but don’t conform to its stereotype either. Good hobbies are usually dangerous, exciting or interesting. Find something you love, and then do it. Don’t let anyone stop you.</li>
<li>Get good at that hobby. Mastery of a field shows the mastery of a true leader, and gives her something to brag about.</li>
<li>Have a way of learning about stuff. Knowledgeable people are interesting, mysterious and intriguing. Having a decent enough knowledge of a wide number of topics is also very useful in conversation and will make people want to get to know you. Read books or blogs, watch documentaries and do strange and interesting things so you can learn from experience.</li>
<li>Travel. Travel can be cheap or expensive depending on how you go about it, but the stories and knowledge acquired will always be invaluable. Guys who travel a lot are unattainable; this is emotional catnip to women.</li>
<li>Do business. This doesn’t have to mean self-employment, or even turning a profit. Just work with other people who share your hobby for a mutual benefit. Aside from negotiation experience it acts as social proof and gives you a support network for your hobby, allowing you to achieve more.</li>
<li>Have a provider skill. This could be cooking, bartending, basically anything that involves providing for your woman. This shows alpha mastery, can be exciting or interesting (depending on what the skill is) and once again gives bragging/rationalisation ammo for her.</li>
<li>Exercise. This raises your testosterone and shows that you take care of yourself. A healthy body is an indicator of reproductive fitness, and she’ll be able to smell the testosterone on you.</li>
<li>Always have a project. Always be working on a painting, song, blog post, poem, or recording; and always be practicing for an upcoming match, competition, season, exam (yes, even revision can help you out), concert or show. Always move forward by creating something new or honing your skills in some way. The prioritisation of your project over your woman is a leader trait and can cause the odd emotional roller coaster.</li>
<li>Have an active social life. You don’t need to be in constant party mode, that shit gets old. Just get to a point where any given night of the week you can go out to a familiar venue (where you know the drinks are cheap) with people you know. Your social circle should be wide enough that there’s always someone to chill with even if they’re just an acquaintance. This acts as social proof, and makes you an exciting motherfucker.</li>
</ol>
<p>Doing each of these things allows you to build an awesome lifestyle without much money; some of these can even earn you money if you get good enough. That said, you could do all of these things a million times over, have an awesome life and being the most interesting man in the world; but it doesn’t mean shit without good lifestyle game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Overt bragging is transparent and bad game. It crosses the line between confidence and arrogance in a bad way. They key to lifestyle game, and most DHVs for that matter, is <strong>subtlety</strong>.</p>
<p>Although some of the time saying: “hi I’m Steve, I like bungee jumping, yoga and kung fu” will get you laid on account of boldness, most of the time you’d be giving too much away. In a nighttime environment, just drag out the questioning process with flirty teasing so that by the time you tell her what you do she’s dying to know, or tell her early but in such a way that she’s not entirely sure what you do or doesn’t know much about it. You’d always rather her wonder than know. </p>
<p>The most important part is frame control. Never forget this: <strong>You are inviting her into your lifestyle and she is lucky to be a part of it. You are your own person with your own interests. No one comes before them.</strong> You do not need her in your life, but she is welcome providing she doesn’t try to take any control from you.</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter if she only likes you for your band, your art or even your money; providing she doesn’t have control over it. Don’t let her tell you what to write songs about, what to paint or what to buy. This is <strong>imperative</strong> with regard to your provider skill. You don’t cook her dinner, or make her cocktails because you want to impress her; you were going to anyway.</p>
<h3>Illustrative examples:</h3>
<p>“Can I cook you dinner?” should be changed to “I’m having dinner, do you want some?”</p>
<p>“Can I take you to my friends party?” vs. “I’m going to a party, do you want to come?”</p>
<p>“Can I buy you a drink?” vs. “I’m getting a drink, do you want one?”</p>
<p>“I’m making a cocktail, do you want one?”</p>
<p>You do not ask permission, and most importantly – you were going to do what ever you’ve offered her to be a part of anyway (and if she declines you do it anyway, without her). You were going to have chicken stir-fry, go to your friend’s party and buy a drink anyway. You merely invited her to be a part of it.</p>
<p>My lifestyle game goes something like this:</p>
<p>I’m a physics student who’s in a band and has a blog. I’m good at my subject and get high marks (logical – good catch). My band are good (primal – mastery) and we regularly perform shows in my local area (emotional – excitement, primal – social proof, logical – bragging rights). I share my blog with people I know and don’t care about anonymity (emotional – balls out honesty). My main hobby outside of these is sex, I admit this to the girls I sleep with (emotional – risk and unattainability). I read a lot and constantly learn new things for the sake of it (emotional – using game knowledge to appear to have an intuitive understanding of people). I tend to vary between being too calm and too intense (emotional – roller coaster effect). I don’t travel often but when I do I go hard, I’m going to Amsterdam soon (emotional – excitement). My band is currently recording, enlisting the help of friends and acquaintances for production, artwork and ideas (primal – social proof, logical – business being done, emotional – prioritisation of project over women). I eat a relatively strict diet that I enjoy (logical – self discipline) and have learned to cook well as a consequence (logical – providing, primal – mastery). I can find a good night out any night of the week in Brighton (primal – social proof, emotional – excitement).</p>
<p>The key is that I do all these things for me. The game advantage is supplementary. Always remember – pussy is the side effect of a lifestyle, not the goal.</p>
<p>Just to prove how this can apply to almost anyone who takes the right approach, consider the drug dealer:</p>
<p>His hobby is selling drugs (emotional – excitement and danger). He hasn’t been caught yet (primal – mastery). Given these facts he is probably street smart, learning about the world the hard way (emotional – stories and danger, primal – social proof). He may travel the country to meet suppliers (emotional – roller coaster effect and stories, logical – business). He will probably give free drugs to the girls he’s fucking (logical – provider). He ought to be in shape given the risk of violence (primal – reproductive fitness). He may be making moves to get up the food chain (emotional – prioritisation of project over women). He has people to get high with pretty much any day (primal – social proof, emotional – danger and excitement).</p>
<p>See what I’m getting at? It’s better to build a lifestyle from your current hobbies than lead a fake lifestyle to get pussy.</p>
