I on the other hand, live by this rule, cute girl are usually no substance and they are used to dude giving it all to them; I date girls who aren't getting too much attention and they fall super hard for you. Quote:
Love my X to pieces, but I wasn't "giving enough" to her, I didn't buy her the nice things, I wasn't able to provide by giving her a big massive wedding. I left in peace so she can go chase after a guy who can give her the monetary stuff (which translates to "love"); guess it won't be me. |

If I could recognize I was doing that, maybe I wouldn't have lost her. Maybe she would have kept trying harder. I really fucked up and I've accepted that there's no way for me to change it. |

Learn from the mistakes, and you won't make those same mistakes again. (You'll just make new ones that are equally as bad... FailFish Eventually though, all of those lessons will pay off. Good luck. |

I think we still live in a culture where women are valued more for their appearance, and the ones that don't automatically fit the beauty ideal are counted out. Vice versa for guys and money or materialistic things. The girl I'm talking about is fit, plays sports, and very educated, but she won't do things like wear make-up, put on a push-up bra, be extra flirty with guys to make herself seem more attractive and therefore doesn't get a lot of attention from guys. (no I'm not posting pics) Props to you gentlemen for taking the plunge and putting yourselves out there, rather than staying home and beating off on your couch. Like you all said, with experience, you get more confident in what it is you are looking for in a relationship. |

AND when she did wear makeup and dresses, she looked fine and classy af. Like that would have been an easy 7.5 to 8 /10 if she looked like that when I first met her. I think if the girl you're talking about knows how to do makeup, take care of her skin, you'll be fine. |

Done it once when my x pulled a stupid move and flirted with her X. As to my other Xs, once I break up, i ghost them. |

Looking rich but being poor is way cooler than being rich and looking poor |
is money important in a relationship?...god damn right it is....as in her words "If you cannot provide for us,i don't want to be with you". |

The irony is that she works minimum wage (5hrs/week), asks parents for money, and sucks at saving. I have not asked my parents for money since I was 12, work full time + startup, and while I suck at saving in a bank account - my investments make up for it. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk |

I make pretty good money (due to having a very specific job role) but I live kinda poor. That's due to me growing up lower-middle class and learning from my parents how to stay ahead. I also drive around in a $1450 car, not a $41,500 car as I personally hate debt. The downside being I work a lot, particularly this year. I moved to a condo back in June but nicknamed my home as 'the shelter' as that's pretty much what I used it as until just last week. Also, my social life has been non-existent so I'm at the point where I'm refusing projects despite all the 'you'll get more money!' chants. Fuck that. So when I troll dating apps and see all these people who talk about traveling the world, eating out and #wanderlust with zero intellectual discourse, I just laugh. Despite their attractive appearances, I know they have Chiclets for brains. I refuse to take everything I work hard for and hand it over to someone who lives a different lifestyle from me. Part time and low wage relative to age? Yeah no, Keep your MA in Sociology with $85k debt and :gtfo: |
I don't know too many common job roles that make the so-called "good money" in Vancouver other than software devs these days |

I've had a girl ghost me after learning what I did for a living...her occupation was being a full-time student :lawl: How much would you guys have to make to classify as "good" money in Vancouver? |

2. I would say for a single individual, 80K-90K would be good; 91-110K would be excellent. I don't think income is a good indicator, I would say the better indicator is how much savings you have. A student making minimum wage, but saves every dollar, is richer than you if you spent every dollar. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk |
GS8 must be a real catch then. |

^ you guys are making 80k right out of school...? I am still maintaining a part-time position while trying to get my first foot through that door after two years.. |

I got laid off in Nov and in the market now. 110k pure salary jobs are mostly VP / directors. We are talking about solid 8-10 yrs of experience + managing a team. I do this reality check with kids at my church. (Aside from specialized training /field eg// gov't worker, doctors, engineers, programs etc). -$35k is min/starting wage give or take. $$17.5 bucks an hr -$45-55k ($23.5 - $29 / hr) is with a solid 3-5 yrs of experience and you might get promoted within or heck, you get lucky getting into these flashy companies. Lulu, Aritizia, Global relay, any tech company (absolute, veeam, SAP) etc. -$55k-80k ($30-40/ hr) level is extremely hard to crack. Exp is a must (duh) and you should be bringing SOMETHING to the company's bottom line (at least indirectly). Ain't no receptionist or assistant getting $80k. Lastly, you'll need a whole lot of luck because the pool has a shit load of talent with 5+ experience over you AND at least 10+ people with better resumes (previous work brand names). -$80k - 110 base salary ($45-55 / hr)+ commission (OTE 150+). I'm focusing on sales job. Bringing in revenue directly is a must. Most likely a hunter and experience, your brand name, resume and track record is mandatory. These jobs are out there but i have to say, landing one is a bit tough because I can assure you competition is fierce. If not in sales, you better be a diretor / project manager with at least 3-5 unique skill sets (certificates Cisco, PMP, etc to even get up to the 80k level). I yell at my friends who complains and offer this reality check. Median income is 55k after taxes (in BC 2019). I always respect those who are earning the 80k range as they are already considered very fortunate people in BC. |

it has taken me 8-9 years in my trade/profession to get 65K this year, and i was pretty proud of it until i saw the above post were the guy said min 80k is "average" |
Info Sec is a different monster. It's a very specialized and prized skill in today's market. It won't last long, so savour it while it lasts. |
i dont think tiger is wrong, 50k isnt hard to attain. Just sign up at coast mountain or translink they start around 20$ an hour. Bus drivers for translink starts at 24bucks an hour and ofc if you studied something like mechanical engineer or electrical engineer youd make close to 70/80k right out of uni if you can get into bc hydro. It's all about what you want to do with your life and what you studied/ spent time on. If you were a receptionist for 4 years during university studying arts, can easily land a federal admin assistant job and make 50k a year. |
