dc, have you ever actually been to Asia as a young guy? Hate to bash your first post ITT but this is so wrong it sounds like you're making this up.

This is a good description of most Asian countries.
Lol what? You think 90-95% of girls in most Asian countries (including SEA) give you little to no chance as a normal young white guy? I can only speak for the Phils which is obv easier than most of Asia, but being white here 90-95% of girls will like you MORE, not less. I can't imagine it's even close to what you're saying in "most Asian countries" or anywhere outside of Korea.

This also seems completely backwards.

When guys say they like the girls = They like the girls

When guys say they like the adventure, uncertainty, travel, escapism = 80%+ girls are a much bigger reason than they admit

Confirmed never happening.

True, but Twitch is different as I see great potential in it career-wise and have already invested a good amount of time in preparations. The only reason I'm postponing it is because I wanna be sure I have 35 hours a week of time in my hands to stream.

Thread savers and illustrations why I think it's ridiculous:

Do you think in US/EU an average looking broke poker player can get a girl like this (my ex) without investing money or effort in the relationship?



Do you think in US/EU an average looking guy can get an 18 yo Tinder girl like this (virgin bj girl) that he never met before to drive 90 minutes to his place to just give him a free BJ then leave? No, it's never gonna happen in Germany, maybe I should come to DC

the problem with that is that you are extremely incentivized to do anything for money, if you wanna bet on it we would have to wager something non $

Cmon man, get your **** together. Stop being lazy. You dont have a job, family, many friends or a girlfriend now. You have so much time to do all the stuff you want to do. Play poker all day, do twitch and youtube, or whatever else just start making more money.

Your goal was to move to more expensive parts of Asia? what do you do in order to make enough money to do it? Nothing...


Try hard once and make your life like you wanted earlier in the thread

Good luck

Actually RooshV of PUA bang book fame regularly decries it as the worst place in the US. He grew up there and he had to turn game into a science to get anywhere in DC. Lots of politic shlubs and femnazis with cash. It's expensive and has lots of bad ghetto neighborhoods as well.

EU definetely not. The only place with a visible percentage of Asians is London which is lolexpensive. Unless you're a highstakes pro or have a good senior level job forget about even having your own apartment there in a nicer part of town.

On the other hand I was in other parts of Europe last summer and the amount of thirst I got was way bigger than in Asia as a well put together guy in my 30s. At Info's age the attention I got was pretty much zero though and I couldn't get laid to save my life.

On a scale from 1-10 this post is 10. on the dumbest post you can make scale.

Someone makes a blog and shares his live and his experience. Does it mater what he does/does not? Does it mean that I should keep posting in his blog etc telling him what he should/shouldn't do?

The answer is no. Whenver I see someone making posts like that in blog section I imagine some weirdo guy in his late 30/early 40 divorced or still living in a mom basement that just desperately wants to be right in the internet.


I am 32. Info Shove is what? 22-23? Man when I was that young I made so many dumb decisions it is beyond insane. Would my life look different from his if I ended up in SEA being early 20?? Nope I would probably degen it way too fast and be already on my way home. He is still fighting.
Do I think he is unfocused and might screw it up??Yeah maybe but at the same time he his at the age when you basically try to figure out what you want from live and what you want to do with it. Pretty solid.

So far I like his blog and I "enjoy the show" so to speak. I think it is pretty cool tbf I see him making some blog/video/twitch content that would be entertaining and worth watching if thats what he wants. But if he doesn't he doesn't.

BTW guys am I the only one that thinks that Info Shove ex is by far the hottest girl of all he phosted photos of?? Especially the last one on the beach,no makeup. She does looks nice tbh.
But I guess it is a matter of taste.

I agree with donkerr though because the high goals I set and the work I put in don't add up at all. I wanna be in great shape, have a hot Korean or Japanese gf and move to a more expensive part of Asia, but I'm doing nothing to achieve those things and still barely getting by in a cheap city in the Phils with near $0 life roll.

Some things need to change big time given the goals I've set ITT myself.

First of all im not telling him what to do, im just saying that he doesnt put in the effort to achieve things he set for himself.
Playing poker 200+hours, work out, diet, move to Korea/Japan, youtube, twitch... pretty much all fails so far
And i would like to see him achieve all that rather then living a life he clearly doesnt really want to live in future. The only thing stopping him is his lazyness

If his goals were to just make enough money to live a decent life and keep living the life like this i wouldnt say a word.

He said he doesnt want to go back home and get a normal job. To be honest if he keeps like this he will have to go back home. Poker on easy site will not be here for 10years

I am closer to Info`s age then yours and i would prefer not to look back when im 32 and think damn i should have put more effort in making my life like i always dreamed of.

cheers

This guy is pretty good on mindset:




Japan is pretty cheap if you join a language school. They give you a room in a shared house for 300-400 bucks a month and you're allowed to work part time. The language school fees aren't crazy expensive either. Lots of 3rd world people actually are just in it for the extra money they can make via work while they do some half assed studying.

I had no idea that was the case. I saw most schools aren't crazy expensive, something like 12-20k a year, but still pricy. 300-400 is incredibly low.

Also I think you need to be interviewed or something if you're above a certain age.

If you're streaming for 35 hours a week won't that mean your poker grinding will drop to almost 0? Seems like it puts a lot of pressure on streaming to be a big hit from the get go. Or do you have a couple months expenses saved up?
Clueless kid moving to Manila - Never been to Asia before Quote
04-05-2018 , 02:46 PM
I'm planning to stream 5 hours during the day and grind 5-6 hours at night. Only practice will show how sustainable that is for me but given that I'm streaming stuff that is fun to me I don't think it'll feel like work.

Can you give an overall plan for what these 5 hours streams are going to consist of?

I want to have a mix between streaming inside and outside my condo. Ultimately I want to stream outside more often than not (e.g. hitting on girls at the mall), but I'm starting with more indoor streams because I already have everything I need for that (nice condo, proper internet, very good camera). Streaming outside is a bigger investment (transport, internet expenses, at least a powerbank for my phone and maybe more equipment) and depends on the success of the stream.

The indoor streams will be focused on picking up girls from Tinder and having as many guests over as possible. I won't be picky at all and get Tinder Plus (I've never used it before) to get as many guests as I can. With a guest it's much easier to make a good stream, if it's a girl from Tinder I'm sure viewers would have questions for her or I can just interview her to see if she makes a good girlfriend (even though I probably won't be attracted to her and I'll just want to use her for stream content and get laid).

On Sundays below will take up 2-3 hours (I'm thinking of 100 two-tabled hands of HUNL per match, play money on Stars so anyone new to poker can join). Let me know what you think about it:

Sure https://www.reddit.com/r/LearnJapane...l_mega_thread/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/LearnJapane...ools_in_japan/ has reviews of various schools and costs.

If you're under 30 you can just get a working holiday visa if your country is a participant in the program which is generally super easy to get and study part time or w/e.

If you're over 30 you'll need to apply for a student visa, but if poor ass 3rd world people can get it that mainly come to Japan to work instead of study during their stay it can't take much either.

Korea can be equally cheap but I didn't like it there and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

DC has tons of young horny people. It can't be *that* hard.

Regardless, I'm not saying Info should go to London or DC as I see that his budget is limited. What I am saying is that countries like Ukraine, Latvia, Romania, etc are both cheap and have tons of beautiful women that he could probably do well with on a budget.

To be sure, quantity probably takes precedence for Info at this age but at a certain point he will start to value quality and start realizing that a relationship is not just about sex. Maybe his ideal partner really is some farm girl with no education/social graces/etc but overall, I would say E. Europe is the place to be (unless it absolutely has to be an Asia girl). E Europe is pretty easy, and much more rewarding for what I think he can probably pull.

Most of these "candid" setups are fake and/or analyzed to fit letter of the law. Any sizable channel is not going to jeapardize their existence by posting things that can get them demonetized, taken down or sued. Specific rules vary by country and state, but if there is anything I learned from traveling on 5 continents is that many countries have ridiculously strict laws on paper - and as a foreigner you often get extra scrutiny. You better make sure you know these rules.

While in the US you might face demonetization/ban/lawsuit, in PH you also better watch your back so that you don't get stabbed after posting some video.

I prefer quality over quantity and I'd still rather date a Pinay than a white girl.

Now if I compare Japanese/Korean/Chinese/Taiwanese to white girls it's like comparing girls to ladyboys.

Not all Pinays are "farm girls with no education/social grace/etc". Even though the average level of education is extremely bad in the Philippines, the top 2% are capable of meaningful conversation if you're into that.

And I hope I don't need to tell you the top 5 countries with highest average IQ are all in Asia. I can't help but feel like you're generalizing all of Asia as a giant zone of hookers and farm girls selling their petite bodies to white men because of how you generalized Asia in your previous post.
