'Advice for guys in their 20's' -
Most dudes nowadays hit rock bottom in one way or another around age 27.
This is where you lose touch with all the "automatic" friend groups you had in HS and college (which were easy to form due to proximity - you were around them all day long)...
This is where your poor nutrition catches up with you...
This is where you notice the first signs of aging...
This is where you start really doing a normie job long-term for the first time and realize how soul-destroying it is...
As a result, this age often serves as a demarcation point for dudes.
The vast majority will fall into a life of "normal" choices and resulting misery from that point onward.
But a small % will completely reject this paradigm and go into schizo berserker mode instead and create an incredible life for themselves through sheer grit and determination.
The biggest paradox you need to internalize, however, is that the formula for a 'good life' at age 30 or 40 is going to be the exact OPPOSITE as at age 20.
You can do all the 'normal', societally-prescribed things today and have a genuinely awesome life at age 20 - go to school, play sports, hang out with your friends, go to parties, etc.
But if you do all the 'normal', societally-prescribed things from age 25 or so onward nowadays you will very likely have a miserable life.
You will end up 40 years old, significantly overweight, depressed, on multiple medications, 50% chance of divorce, in a job you hate under blue fluorescent lights all day, drowning in debt, and earning less than your father or grandfather did at the same age comparatively.
This is the sad reality of modern life (at least in the West).
The upside though is that there is more opportunity than ever before IF you are willing to be a contrarian and reject the normal choices and life path and look really weird and potentially even crazy to a lot of normies...
Embrace self-sovereign income, quit eating normie foods, count your calories, lift weights religiously, do combat sports or mountain climbing or some other sport that keeps you fit and gives you a community of like-minded dudes to hang out with, reject the pozzed insanity of modern politics and culture, utterly refuse to engage in the 'humiliation rituals' of modern life, read voraciously, go down rabbit holes, get into crypto or AI or etc, spend less than you earn, build wealth, and leave a legacy upon this earth.
Make the decision that you would rather fail 1000 times trying to lead a great life than to choose a life of shallow mediocrity and fear, and thereby insult your ancestors who sacrificed everything so you could be here, and insult the 8 year old version of you that dreamed of one day doing great things...

Someone built a fitness app using the same psychological mechanics as gambling
This might work better than every normal fitness app 😭😭
You bet money on whether you’ll hit 10,000 steps today
If you fail, you lose your money
If you succeed, you split the money from everyone who didn’t
So disciplined people literally profit off lazy people
Most fitness apps try motivating you with streaks and notifications
This one motivates you with financial fear
Imagine realizing at 11:52pm you still need 1,700 more steps or you lose $30
Entire friend groups would be outside walking laps around their neighborhood before midnight trying not to lose their steppa challenge
It sounds stupid but this would probably motivate people better than any other fitness product
Would you use this yourself?
