Thank you.
While not exactly what I was looking for, those are great reads. I've spent the past few hours going through theminimalists.com and earlyretirementextreme.com. I don't really dig the way ERE is written but there's lots of useful information and it's just very practical.
I had read some Mark Manson on Post Masculine before, but I'll check out this page soon.

Minimalism for the manosphere. Could possibly be a good blog angle for someone to take on.

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
To be your own man is a hard business. If you try it, you'll be lonely often, and sometimes
frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Kipling

I've only stumbled upon the manosphere this year, but I've discussed my way (with friends and introspection) on to some red pill ideas and I've read some pick up texts over the years, with the one closest to red pill material being David X's ebook. I also have minimal experience with women, although approaching is not usually an issue. The tl;dr being that I am only a newbie.
If I find the next few months rewarding, which I hope I do, I may give this a shot. I will start by posting some stuff about what I've been trying and what's working or not working, as well as some field reports on the forums here first.
I will be moving to a town (some kind of college town, by the looks of it) in the north of Germany for school soon, and this might prove interesting, both on the minimalism and women fronts. Often heard Roosh talk about the cultural differences between Eastern European women in bigger, more developed cities v/s comparatively smaller, less developed towns.

Mr. Money Mustache is a goldmine for all things frugality. The downside though is that it's not redpill in the slightest, and forum over there (which is a fucking massive forum) is crawling with white knights and women prepared to scream their heads off at any thread that discusses anything related to divorce, gender roles, etc.
The elephant in the room, that the MMM and ERE crowd won't address, is that most of the discussions take place with a "it's twice as easy for a couple to save money than for one person" mindset.
No one is willing to reccognize the threat of: Retire from lucrative 150k job at age 35 after saving heavily with spouse - Survive on 40k from investments - Wife divorces you at age 40, takes half the assets - Court awards alimony and child support based on imputed income of 150k - Man is royally, ROYALLY fucked.

Boom.
Look in the archives. He talks about getting ahead in life and the importance of minimalism. You can thank me later.
