Think With Your Mind, Not With Your Dick – Get Rich

Relationships are complicated, but as it relates to building wealth, a lot can be gained from finding the right relationship and avoiding the bad ones. For some, common practice is to, by any means necessary chase the opposite sex at the expense of rational thought. For most men, chasing tail has become a national pastime, and some are flat broke because of it.


Don’t get me wrong, everyone needs their fair share. However, as a man, I would be disgusted if I had to spend 10s of thousands of naira  just to sustain a lifestyle or keep my wife happy. Same goes for women. I would also think less of myself if I was going deeper and deeper into debt at the expense of chasing the opposite sex – a common occurrence. When you can’t control your money, money begins to control you and stress, sadness and depression can occur. The single life can be financially dangerous because it’s easy to go broke off of booze and women. In a relationship, these usually end miserably (more than half divorce) because when people don’t act themselves initially, it gives a wrong impression and eventually that other person comes out and your wife doesn’t like that guy.
If you have to act differently around a person just to live sanely and avoid argument, consider changes now. Life is too short to work on a terrible relationship if you already gave it a fair chance. And yet, it’s hard to let go and give up all the free, awesome sex, I know I know. This is the part where you have to think with your mind and not your dick. It’s pretty easy to identify a volatile, destructive relationship if you just use your head (mind).

Some women want the world and no matter how much money you spend, they cannot be pleased. Identifying these women, and making a thoughtful choice to avoid them may be the most important move you can make to build wealth.
Ideally, you save a bunch of money by avoiding needy relationships, invest it, and get rich overtime.
