Having money after a certain age isn't very special.

I am fairly selective in the information i share and to some, they think i am being vague and that equates in their mind to - I am full of it.Bolded is why I am slightly surprised that you do share any info at all - same goes for the helicopter brah with the cool cars.
But the real ones that are living the experience should pick up on certain things (like yourself) and know that those perspectives come from experience. I honestly wish I had access to a handful of people (semi anonmymous or not) that I could bounce my ideas, questions, decisions off of in my 20's.
In return, some of the real miscers that are younger help me stay connected to what people 2 generations away are thinking.

Stress over the lack of money is honestly the biggest stressor in most people's lives. You don't realize it if you make good money and don't have to worry about how much is in your bank account at any given time SRS. Feels good to get to the point where you don't worry about it at all

I think the tipping point is when you get past not looking at prices for anything under a few hundred bucks.

Women absolutely care about money. But in America, they are not as obvious about it. So you can't be obvious about it too because that forces their hand.
Just live the good life and if they want to join you or not that should be ok with you.

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what Godโs will isโhis good, pleasing and perfect will.
And do this, understanding the present time. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.

Did OP ever share how much money he has?
I'm not super rich but I've entered into definitely comfortable/above average. I honestly don't feel like my life is any different. Compared to friends my age, I can maybe buy a nicer house or better seats to a sports game or a higher quality hotel. Don't have to worry about paying for things that are basic comforts here and there.
But overall nothing has really changed. Unless you pull in 1 mil/year then you don't have they type of money that truly separates you from society. Even 1 mil/year might not be enough. Not sure.

"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Are you living in a high end home/apartment? Top 10% in your city?
How many cars/motorcycles/boats/ motorized toys do you own? Whatโs their value?
How often do you โgo outโ and how much do you spend per week at restaurants, bars, social events, etc?
I think a lot of people confuse financial stability with having the income to live a carefree life. Your expecting women to be impressed? How much money do you spend on โfunโ per month
If you are dropping less then 15k per month on lifestyle. Housing. Cars. Food/drinks/ recreation. You really havenโt reached that carefree fun stage yet.

I've only had significant amounts of money for about 4-5 years, and due to some good investments and a couple big commissions over the last 6 months, I'm at a position where I truly don't need to work and could go something like 7-10 years now living comfortably off of savings.
Yes, lack of stress makes life a lot more comfortable. But you don't have a lot of peers in the same situation, as most aren't independently wealthy. End up doing a lot of things alone, and friendships suffer as a result. I can find people to do things for short periods of time with, but I'm just not in a similar place to a lot of people so there's no real way to relate. And lack of money is a big motivational factor for overall life, as I just don't have the same drive as many of the guys I'm hanging out with nowadays, so I'm never the one winning the competition for girls we're hanging out with.
And most girls nowadays don't seem to give much of a fuk about how much money a guy has. They're certainly not going to choose a mediocre looking guy with ok social skills and lots of money over a good looking guy with great social skills and just a little bit of money.
Starting to think I should put my money into some account that I can't touch for another 10 years and keep working on myself more.

Money is good for security and comfort, I think it will also be important over the next few years because times could get pretty tough - the warning signs are there already in Sri Lanka, Pakistan, food riots and revolution in the air.
Money also gives you time and space to set up your life how you want it - optionality and flexibility is underrated. If you are using $s to attract women you are probably going to attract a pretty low quality of sloot...need to be a well-rounded person to attract high quality people IMO.
