Does the car affect the game?
04-07-2012, 07:06 AM
A car works to a certain degree. In their minds you having a car paints you with a sense of freedom and independence. Though this does not mean that one should go out of their way to purchase just any car just to give yourself a better standing with girls.
I have seen that too many times. Guys in horrible financial situations spending the little money they have on cars to increase their social value in front of girls.
First thing about that is financially its just plain foolish. The second is mentally it weakens you. It subconsciously makes you dependent on their gratification and mentally enslaves you to them. Which also weakens your game. One has to learn to not do things to gain value in the eyes of others. Now if you need to purchase a car, then one is free to do so. Just don't buy one for the sake of improving your standing with girls.

Don't give them what they expect, and you'll get from them what you never expected.

I always laughed at my wealthy/wealthier buddies who thought that getting a high end car would mean better women. Maybe in terms of ONS it did, but it definitely didn't seem to be efficient financially.
Here's something to try if you can afford a car payment of over $800 a month -- don't do it. Instead, roll that $800 into hiring a driving assistant (easily found by posting on Craigslist). Keep your current paid-off car, and use that money to offer $10/hour to someone who needs some extra cash.
I did this for years, and I continue to do it when I socialize more in my home towns. I drive an old SUV (11 years old) and the look on some peoples' faces when I have a driver but not a nice car is priceless.
Compare the two:
1. Guy has a Porsche, but when he's drunk, he's taking a big BIG risk (you can't own a bar in Chicago if you have a DUI). So he's either limited to how much he can drink, or he needs to leave his $100,000 car at the bar while he cabs home and then back in the morning.
2. Guy has a reasonably nice but older car, but when he wants to go out, he just calls his driver and may drop only $60-$80 for a night of being driven from bar to bar. Want to bounce? The car is waiting outside, warmed up and ready, and you can be as drunk as you want.
Financial efficiency is a great secret that few (if any?) Game blogger discuss. I figure that the cost of a great car is way more than the cost of hiring a drive for your nights out. Go out 20 hours a week? That's $200 per week max in labor costs. For me, it's efficiency, for the ladies it's high status and power.
