Making the most out of game while working a white collar or corporate job.
This is not a repeat thread or repost of any kind but I'll probably get roasted for it anyways. In other words, we discuss how to build a successful nice paying career in the corporate or white collar world and make the most out of game along the way.
Not normal for me to post more than a thread a week but I wanted to post this as an open discussion, not to whine about anything but more to give each other some good ideas of how to make the most of our weekends and free time.
While there can be a lot to complain about as a lot of us have noticed all too often........
I think we kind of overlook some of the benefits of this situation even though it isn't ideal to most.
For one, the money and benefits can be pretty good. If you work for a decent or good company, you will get paid above average salary and on top of that get things like health benefits taken care of. The stability is also there compared to a more wild fun job where it is feast or famine in terms of salary and you might have to crash on someone's couch.
The other benefit is that in many industries, if you are a likable enough guy, you might get to meet and rub shoulders with people who are financially successful themselves. I have heard the claim that sales is a lot like game so you can learn some relevant skills there.
I really don't think 40 to 50 hrs a week is that much anyways and love that unlike college, I don't have homework and finals to worry about.
But now for the challenge of making the most of it in terms of game.
I mentioned on previous threads how it seems rare to find someone in this situation living the player lifestyle so I want to discuss ideas on how to make the most of the situation in terms of game.
1. Looksmax and go to dating apps.
Obvious go to and one I have seen work best for guys who are naturally good looking and take good photos. Mixed feelings about putting your career on the profile since it can lead to you being put in the provider category but I think there are obvious ways around it. Plus if she is attracted to your looks enough, she could care less.
2. Daygame and nightgame in your spare time.
Self-explanatory and the forum was built on the premise of that. When I was starting out in the 9 to 5 life, I spent weekends going to bars and clubs for nightgame but the problem was that I noticed a lot of my Saturday and Sunday afternoons were being burned to the ground given that that I was going to sleep at 4 or 5 AM on some nights!
3. For those of us who have this option, linking up with old college friends and crew.
This assuming you were a social and popular person in your college days. You go around linking up with your old crew and keep on meeting new people through them or getting to know people who you just barely knew in college.
4. Cool side gig, hobby or job.
The controversial one that has been a heated debate and we all have mixed feelings on it. I am finding that is tough to get a job at most bars and nightclubs when you have a 9 to 5 in most cases, maybe I am not trying hard enough but they just don't hire exclusively for the weekends. Not going to give up there but perhaps there are other game-friendly hobbies, gigs and things you can do on weekends as well.
Given that we are speaking about making the most of game, I am not a fan of videogames, board games and loner hobbies.
About all I have and will add more later on but if you guys have more ideas, stories or creative proposals, I am all ears!

RE: Making the most out of game while working a white collar or corporate job.
Dude Please stop making threads for a little while Beer! You already knew this thread was most likely useless... and you still went ahead & created it anyway! Boy You're starting to get the "Annoying" reputation Round here... which could truly hurt you when/if you want to meet members in person! You've started all these threads... and yet we know practically nothing about how you're doing ladies wise! That's a Huge tell that you're all Bark & No Substance... aka not taking any action, & most likely speaking to 0 Girls / Week!
That's a Huge No No for the Veterans here... and you've just been called out by Kaotic, a 100 + Heavily Respected member! That means you've got to chill out kid! Stop reading the forum if you have to... and just go do what you gotta do to improve & reach the results you want... but stop making threads... and please take out the word college from your vocabulary! Enough is enough already! This shit won't get you banned... but it will turn you off from the Big Dog of the Forum if you ever wanna meet with them while traveling & shit! I say this with love... Chill Out!

Exactly. I get the feeling he is a good dude, but just needs to break out of his shell ASAP. Beer, doesn't matter whether you're a white collar corporate worker, bartender, hustler, business owner, whatever.....embrace whatever you have going to the fullest & just get out there in the real world & do the damn thing! We know you can do it. You have shared some success stories here & there. Try to replicate some of those same strategies moving forward & just keep executing. Once you start enjoying life time will start flying! We all have slumps here & there, but the key is to shake out of it & keep it moving.
