What’s the scoop on Belarus (Minsk), Ukraine or Russia in 2025?
Is Ukraine still too dangerous?
How’s Minsk for pickup or even finding a young ‘trad’ slavic wife as a White Westerner and escaping the increasingly dark & swarthy West? I guess Russia is off the table now with WW3 imminently starting.
Well... it's time to GTFO of The West again, and go work remote abroad on my shit.
I have zero safety net this time and need costs as low as possible (it's all so tiresome...)
Just scanning Air BnB, the cheapest so far for rents are Pattaya and Hanoi.
I've visted both - Hanoi was very interesting in their winter time, cold as fuck but very atmospheric - I'd be willing to give it a go longer term. When I was in HCMC in 2017 or so, I remember I managed to get a business visa somehow, and was able to stay a year. Or maybe.. I got a tourist visa then EXTENDED it into a business visa once I was there, I def did something like that.
Anyone know if this shit is still possible? It's the constant moving on tourist visas that has always been the biggest ball-ache, and it costs too.
As for Pattaya - shithole from memory, the walking street was fucking disgusting, Thailand at its worst, I can only imagine how much worse it's gotten in these last few years. It was full of Russians last time, Thai people would speak to me in Russian, it was very odd.
I could probably get used to it - rent a scooter, live cheap on Thai food at local places. But again, the Thai visa thing is a mega PITA.
I also just saw a video saying now they don't let farang have bank accounts! And even those who had them (like me) are having them forced closed ffs)
Another option could be Paraguay but a boring place by all accounts.
Really I'd like to go back to the Caucaus region or the stans for the summer, like Kazakhstan, but these places are over the top price-wise, I don't know how they justify it.
Anyway - any ideas fellow kids?
1. WingAI
One of the most disappointing Rizz assistants I have ever tested. In addition to the noticeable lag, the app gets confused most of the time and gives suggestions that are designed for a whole different situation
Pros
- Gives a 50% off discount when you install
Cons
- Doesn’t understand context and gets confused most of the time
- allows only 5 free usages a day
- Gives largely nonsensical responses
2. The Rizz App
The app that popularized the term “AI Rizz,” The rizz app has a good interface and is capable of coming up with good one-liners here and there. The problem is that it is poor at understanding context and often gives suggestions that make no sense
Pros:
- Allows you to get started for free
- Smooth interface
Cons:
- Has a hard time paying attention to context and can give tone deaf responses
- Plagued by political correctness
- Responses known to be cheesy and/or corny
3. PlugAI
The second most popular rizz assistant on the market. Overall, responses are solid. Definitely none of the corniness of the Rizz app. However, sometimes it seems like the AI isn’t completely grasping the context, or the responses are just off.
Pros:
- No cheesiness, corninenss, or political correctness
- Provides decent responses
- Has ability to generate pickup lines (openers).
Cons:
- Doesn’t grasp the context of the convo sometimes
- Need to subscribe to a trial before trying
- Doesn’t allow giving instructions to the AI
4. Fire Texts (by zh creations)
**Mandatory disclaimer: I was involved in building this app, but I truly believe this is the best AI rizz assistant currently out there (and so do thousands of our users)
Pros:
- Highly effective responses that will get you more dates
- Designed by a real dating coach with a decade worth of experience (rather than a nerd in a cubicle)
- Capable of being very funny
- No political correctness, just ruthless efficiency
- Allows you to communicate directly with the AI about what you want in a response
- Allows a free trial
Cons:
- Isn't able to directly generate openers (feature coming very soon)
In this post, I’m going to reveal the results of a Tinder experiment I did to find out what are truly the best cities in the U.S for meeting girls and getting laid. In addition, I will dispel a few common misconceptions about this topic. The answers might be very different from what you expect
When most people think of the best cities for meeting women, their mind jumps to Las Vegas, LA, Miami, etc. You know the flashy touristy cities where people go to party. (we will refer to these as “1st Tier Cities”)
However, they couldn’t be more wrong. It is actually the 2nd tier cities, like Pittsburgh or Cincinnati that are the easiest to get laid in. The cities that people don’t normally think “I need to go there”.
Why are 2nd tier cities better for meeting girls?
I think there are two big reasons. The first has to do with competition. Ask yourself: where are highly successful guys more likely to move to? Miami or Cincinnati? The answer is obvious, successful guys are much more likely to move to a 1st tier city. Leaving 2nd tier cities with a low ratio of successful men
You may wonder, well doesn’t the same effect apply to women. But the answer is, not as much. Women are less likely to leave their friends and family in the city they grew up in compared to men.
This means that when you’re in a place like Miami you’re competing with successful guys from all across the country for the same girls. On the other hand, in Cincinnati you’re competing primarily against locals who are also on average not nearly as successful. This results in more matches, more dates, and less flakes.
The second reason has more to do with entertainment options. In a place like Miami there’s a million things to do. When you match with a hot girl and invite her to get a drink with you, you’re competing against the other guy who invited her on a boat, or the third guy who has backstage tickets to see Skrillex.
However, in Cincinnati when you invite a hot girl on a date, her other option is most likely just watching Netflix with her girlfriends. Thus, it is much easier to get her out (for more info on how to text her to get laid, see this guide)
What is the evidence?
A while back, I decided to test my theory by trying tinder in a bunch of cities across the country. Six cities were picked. The 1st tier ones were: NYC, Miami, and Los Angeles. The 2nd tier ones were: Albuquerque, Denver, and Pittburg
In terms of matches, there was no major difference between both groups. For 1st tier cities I averaged about 45 likes per day. For 2nd tier cities it was around 65. It’s something, but it’s not a lot.
However, when we tried setting up dates with the girls we matched with, massive differences began to emerge. In Miami I set up one date out of the 45 likes. In LA, it was the same. And in NYC it was two dates. Now granted this was with minimal effort and if i put more energy into it, we could have had a few more dates.
That being said, with the same amount of effort, I set up 6 dates in Denver (out of the around 65 likes), 8 In Pittsburgh, and 10 In Albuquerque. That right there is a massive difference.
To see the original article, along with proof screenshots, go here:

Been around the space since 2017
Time to give back some value, this is what I think about the main guys
1. Income Sharks
Very good, smart, one of the best in the space.
Draws charts, doesn't fiddle them, shows you when he buys and sells. Strong success rate
Strong on BTC/ETH, small shitcoins and also stonks
2. TraderSZ
Absolute insider trading shill. This guy peaked in the Bear Market of 2021, really lost his form and got exposed
Do not rate. Shady
One thing he is good at is drawing Quarterly & Monthly levels - you should do this too
3. Trader XO
His mate. Much better analyst, makes decent calls. Loves the macro
Has proven he can trade both ways, maps out his moves before they happen
Would always listen to his ideas on larger caps - though one massive L he took was when he tried to buy the bottom of SOL in 2022/23 and got front-ran
4. DonAlt
OG - doesn't post much but generally pretty good when he does.
Usually sticks to BTC/ETH
Most often has a bear bias. If he is bullish def worth paying attention to him
5. AltStreetBet
TheEWGuy. Big mouth, can't trade. Had some success on some memes last year but on a massive dry spell
He is actually a great counter-trade
Misses moves left, right and centre. Gets sidelined and then flips at the worst moment. I get nervous if he agrees with me
6. Capo
Perma-bear - memeable character
7. Wizz (Crypto Wizard)
Loves to hold coins forever. Honestly did really well on FET
However, not a trader at all
Follow him and you might get wrecked
8. CryptoChase
One of the real ones, maps out trades in advance - usually scales in at logical levels
Trades stonks and crypto
Gets sidelined by Saylor frontrunning his bids sometimes - but happens to me too
9. RektProofCapital
Very good for his deviation 3 tap analysis. Highly rate him as a trader. Proven.
10. ColdBloodedShiller (CBS)
Truly Cold Blooded. Successful, uses AO and RSI very well and basically only that.
Guilty of making people flip bull very late and getting them punished but usually he's on point
If he is one of the first to flip bullish then you should listen to him
Good at trading stonks, pokemon cards, crypto and loves anything tradeable.
Key thought leader on The Haven
11. NebraskaGooner
Rate him highly, knows what he is doing.
Proven
12. CryptoTony
Absolute hack
Has never made a losing trade in his own mind
Do not even bother laughing at him
13. Gainzy
Meme lord. Absolute baller in his peak. Used to buy giant Iron Man statues and spend money on insane shit.
Single handedly made ETH bottom in 2025
14. Michael Saylor
Worst entries ever but somehow doesn't matter
Until maybe one day when it does
BTC King - some people nervous about how much supply he has cornered through MSTR
Also owns a big stash himself from lower levels
15. Mayne
Useless, likes to chat a lot. Has a big neck
16. Scott Melker Wolf of Wall Street
Hack, more a podcast guy than a trader
Got involved early so he made it anyway
17. XForceGlobal
EW big mouth baller from South Korea. Terrible trader
Draws one million scenarios and is apparently always right
18. Alex Becker
Got luck last bull run with gaming
Has maybe more followers than anyone I've ever seen on CT (1.2M)
This guy would havea got you completely rekt if you only followed him since 2022 onwards
19. CrediBULL Crypto
Missed BTC run from 50s to 100K completely
Called the memepocalyse esp on WIF
Looked completely out of it before somehow all his key utility picks CRV / XRP blew up
Hard for me to call this guy - he is a mixed bag for sure of big success and big fuck ups
20. Cred
Similarly named. Educator, not really a trader
21. Bluntz
Aussie that giga longed WIF early on. Ran hot on copy-trading, probably got everyone burnt
Long only mentality that is good when it works but disaster when things change
Conclusion
Learn how to trade yourself but if want to test your ideas vs the best - pay attention to these guys in particular :
IncomeSharks
DonAlt
CryptoChase
CBS
NebraskaGooner
I’m planning a 5–7 day trip somewhere in Eastern Europe — not for partying or chasing, but for something structured, low-stress, and reliable.
The idea is to stay in one city (Airbnb) and line up 2–3 GFE-style meets per day (3h, 6h, sometimes overnight), all arranged in advance.
Total budget: ~€1500 including accommodation, girls, and flights.
Cities I’m considering:
– Bucharest
– Sofia
– Chișinău
– Warsaw
What I’m trying to figure out:
– Which of these cities still realistically supports this setup in 2025?
– Are Telegram/WhatsApp contacts responsive — or mostly dead ends?
– Are prices still reasonable (~60–80€/h)?
– Is Airbnb a safe base — or are neighbors/landlords a problem?
Also open to other suggestions if there’s a better option out there right now.
Looking for real-world info, not theory. Any experience, contacts or advice appreciated.

In the article there is an example of two of the girls from a 2nd tier city (Denver and Albuquerque respectively). Lots of interest, right off the opener

This BBC article is about young men joining traditional religion, lifting weights, and having their wives home school their kids to avoid liberal influences.
"They see it as a military, rigid, disciplinary, masculine, authoritarian religion, ... . It's almost as if the old American Puritans and their craziness is resurfacing."
It reminds me of Roosh, except for the wife and kids.
Young US men are joining Russian churches promising 'absurd levels of manliness'

I first got into game in 2010 and must say it's interesting to see how it's all panned out.
Was I successful? I guess successful enough. I got 12 lays in 1 year averaging one per month at my best. I have had multiple long term girlfriends too.
That took a lot of funnelling, going out, getting numbers, approaching, I used to think 1-2% conversion was decent if you were focusing on quality.
100 interactions (maybe 25 per week) for a lay.
Some might say that's bad but I know guys who literally go years without anything.
I used to know some guys who were counting 50/100+ lays. Were these guys weird? Probably, much more single-minded than me.
Above average attractiveness, completely shameless, focused 100% on results.
All these guys eventually settled down with long-term partners too.
Today in 2025 not sure if game even really exists :
Nightclubs and bars where you traditionally would meet people largely shut down
Street game is less effective and less socially tolerated than ever
Alcohol consumption down
Gym and run clubs are booming - but actually proper athletics is down
Steriod usage booming - looksmax trend is here
Festivals are doing ok but many going bankrupt
Dating apps still exist but massively degraded since 2013/14 era - described as a swamp for women and a desert for men
People glued to their phones - avg person spends 4-5 hours on their phones outside of work
Overtourism is a big problem in places like Spain, Croatia, many cities & countries
Many young people are super poor relative to 10 years ago - can't even afford rent for a room
Huge rise in male virgins - not surprising
Attention spans are fucked
Social media is mostly dead outside Tiktok
If you ask an average person how a young guy should meet women they will say "delete the apps, join clubs".
But to make a actual headway these guys would need to be doing multiple female heavy demographic clubs like :
run club, salsa, gymnastics, pilates, figure ice skating - and be able to enjoy the investment
If he joins a football club because he likes football then it doesn't work ha.
Moreover, culturally there's been a shift :
People spend more time online now but it's mostly a useless waste of time.
Back in the day you could fly into a place, post you had arrived and find people to hang out for a drink.
Sure some of them were losers but the guys who had been repped highly were mostly good, esp if repped positively by someone you had met firsthand.
You could also do this on facebook or reddit - now also deadzones.
You could find people who had good successful businesses or financial acumen and ask them for advice.
There were people who genuinely could inspire.
Hope was a thing. People believed in opportunity.
Incels were detested to say the least. It's weird to me manosphere today = murderous incel. These guys were seen as trash.
Mainstream racists were not really a thing until 2015/16. Before then they were on Stormfront.
Now you get Netflix Adolescence series and people thing this is what manosphere is about.
Trans thing was not an issue either.
I spent a lot of time in Thailand and never thought this would one day become something western media would obsess over.
Booming among Gen Z and contrary to perceptions it's more girls becoming boys than vice versa and strong link with autism.
AI is obviously taking off - up until now I had no real feeling on where we were going in 2020s post-covid.
Clearly AI is going to trend hard for a long time.
2 years ago Chat GBT was useless, 1 year ago it could do some cool things, now it's actually scary impressive and you know it only gets better from here.
Crypto getting mainstream acceptance and BTC thriving
Alts mostly exposed & universally accepted as scams even within crypto.
Worldwide tensions pretty bad. Much more of a realist multipolar world rather than a unipolar liberal rules based order
USA as the policeman you sometimes resented but generally appreciated - now very unpredictable.
Demographic collapse with birth rates withering away in almost all the world except Africa & Middle East
Global warming - I think really died off as an issue in the public consciousness post-covid. In 2007 this was huge.
When covid had airports shuttered and 100% cars off the road and yet barely a dip in worldwide CO2 I think many realised it's a useless/hopeless fight.
Hard to gauge any discernible pop culture icons. All these bands like Coldplay and singers like Taylor Swift were a thing pre-2010s. Yet still now they are the biggest?
It's like mainstream culture stopped. Replaced by niche interests on spotify playlists.
Cinema mostly dying too - repeat after repeat, sequel after sequel. Tom Cruise still making bank though.
People are atomised
Personally I am doing well for myself. I have lived in many expensive cities, good salary, nice bank account, enjoy going out, not extremely wealthy but fairly wealthy.
I can most likely retire early.
I have female friends, I am socially well adjusted. I am fit and in shape.
Yet sometimes I think about how is everyone else is doing. I don't think it's as easy for the upcoming generation as it was 10 years ago.
I think dating and game are not in a great place. It's harder than ever to meet people online and then catch up with them in real life.
Hope it pans out better but let's see.
Hey, approaching girls from the side and front is easy and natural but how do I approach a girl from behind on a skinny English pavement? Cheers.
