Sounds like a real estate agent

too busy to feel lonely. (joking)

i've had reasonable success, now i'm just focusing on building up passive income streams that can free up my time. to be honest, i don't want to fill that now freed up time with more work, but with family and chill stuff that i like.

my dad was like you, and he's crazy successful, but ultimately had 3 divorces and now that hes entering retirement hes in somewhat of a panic, he has no hobbies or interests other than work, his relationships are a mess, his friendships only revolve around work meaning when he stops they also stop being relevant, too much of his identity and who he is is tide to his work, and since covid, even that has contracted (F&B), now hes struggling with what might be his legacy.

the point is, i get your ambitious, successful and want that, but also, dont forget to just relax and enjoy life and appreciate what you have and the non-material successes.

Dude, you're in your 20s making 300k a year. Go out to some fucking clubs and live a little.

You seem like an asshole.

Broaden your scope of friends. If you just stick with other 27yo guys, you’ll be lucky to find anyone like you.

My friends range in age from 40’s to 90’s, both men and woman. All incredible people who are going after their best lives and super funny.

If I went for people who were like me and my age/ gender, I would have zero friends.

I think you might have a personality issue.

About me: I work from home, I make 6-figures, I have a beautiful girlfriend. So... that means I'm a "winner". Yay for me...

Dude, seeing the world like that just comes off as extremely unconfident. Let people live life the way they want to. If they invite you to bars from Thursday to Sunday, go only on Saturday. This is a good thing. They invite you. Go when you want. Let them go when they want.

Finding "winner" friends is not going to suddenly turn you into a billionaire. And even if it did, do you think you would be happier? You make a lot of money without having gone to college. You have friends that invite you to hang out several days a week, and you call them "losers". Stopping judging people and live life the way you want to. But also, let people live their own lives as well.

Why do you view people as either "winners" or "losers"? So you can arbitrarily put yourself in the "winner" category? Let me ask you something: are you happy? I honestly hope you are, but after reading this post... I don't think so.

I think you need to make yourself more enjoyable to be around.

you can pay for a mastermind group. many out there.

Did you tell your friends that their GFs are ugly? If not, you're not being true to yourself. Speak your mind and tell them.

You’re 27 and make $300k; it’s a world of its own really. I’m 33 in a similar tax bracket right now(but this is new for me), and I’m complacent AF, but slowly working into what I want for life. I also eat Taco Bell at least once a week.

I don’t have a tribe, but I have a wife, a dog, and hopefully a kid soon. As I get older, I get more distant, and priorities change. Focus on your hobbies, and find a passion outside of your work. Make friends through a mindset outside of money. Pick up fly fishing, big game hunting, skeet shooting, golfing or something. Buy a boat. Use your money and go live.

Hey man - I get where you're coming from. I've been on a similar path/grind over the last 3 years (albeit not as succesful as yours yet), but one thing I found particularly hard is not having someone in my group of friends to lean on, learn from, share with and so on....

It's been tough and lonely. I enjoy having beers & going out with them, but feel as though I'm 'wasting' my time away, Time I could be using to gain financial freedom & provide for my parents, sisters & aunt. I feel as though it's a lot of pressure at times. Also feel like time is slipping away FAST... i'm in my late twenties.

Keep being mindful of balancing your time spent socially / personally vs professionally / business. Being rich & alone probably won't satisfy 30 years down the line.

Hang in there bud ! Free to chat if ever !

You have friends w/ ugly GF's... you're a loser

Yes that will happen when you really dedicate yourself to something. It’s normal. A lot of my friends are more concerned about social events than I care to be. However, I still try to be social with some friends.

What throws me off about your post is that you’re “thinking of business ideas 24/7”. I imagine it’s because my business takes more mental focus than average, but frankly I don’t have the time to entertain new business ideas all day when I am spending so much time on my current one. I do have a few other ideas but now is not a good time to delve deep into them. I did do a networking event with several other entrepreneurs; they all read lots of books and asked me the latest book I read. I couldn’t imagine spending time reading business books all week. But again, I am not working on a quick app or product that one could build in six months. Just my two cents.

I don't think the problem is your existing friends, I think the problem is that you have a hard time making new friends (otherwise, wouldn't' you have made some new friends apart from the guys you already knew by now?).

Maybe work on the other aspects of yourself besides the 'hustle-n-grind' part. Successful people want to be friends with multidimensional, educated, refined, worldly, affable, outgoing people, not boring guys who let their careers own them.

Go do 3.5-4 grams of mushrooms alone with eye-shades and ANC headphones on and then report back.

22 Male Just got my license in Texas Also dropped out of college We can be friends bro

Bro I relate to you, however I’m 19 NOT making 300k a year. But I definitely know the feeling of “why are all these morons wasting their time so vastly?” I also struggle with the business ideas 24/7, I’d love to actually talk more and see if we can provide each other with some value. I did solar sales, going into car and granite sales.

You sound incredibly boring, find humility before it finds you

"ugly Gfs"? Really? Maybe you're just terrible to be around with people you would consider as like minded.

Mrs. Lippy drives a green car.

I can completely feel you. I am 19M and working on building 2 tech companies being invited and called to some of the best universities and networking event for incubation and networking. I am always so busy working on these two projects I hardly have time to socialize, even if I do have, I am surrounded by idiots in my college. The only thing these guys look upto is partying, clubbing, having s3x , wasting their time watching netflix and playing video games. There are very few people who are actually involved or even remotely interested in building themselves or building a value on the society. Even I stay alone most of the time. But I don't discount my friendship and companionship. I would rather stay alone until I find someone than befriend idiots and become like one. Also I have seen if you befriend people far less successful than you, they start envying you for no reason and the last thing you need is envious friends in your life.

Find God

You are wrong here. Your mindset is best for TheRealWorld by andrew tate. And since you got enough money spend a couple grand to enter the war room and find like minded hard working individuals. Theres enough guys in there that fit what you are seeking perfectly.

Bro I tried so hard to give you a chance here but as soon as I read the "ugly gf's" thing I just couldn't do it.

Hi, i've been in situation like you. All my old friend are loser, this is what i was thinking before. I thought they are wasting their time, even a simple business plan cant be executed well.

Then as i am older (well im still young actually) i see not everyone has the same passion. In your friend mind, you are the loser one. I try to reconnect with some of my old friend why i think they are loser, and found out i am the a**hole :D

What i did in that time was, i try to find some new circle, it took me around 2 years, changing from one circle to another circle that fit me. Lucky, i found one, and im thinking i will stick with them until i grow old.

And also, dont put the mindset that you are a "winner". Some people out there more "winner" than you, and they are stil learning, still hungry, and still foolish. IMO, that mindset is toxic and will make you trouble someday

Maybe if you reread your post you’ll find out why you don’t have any true friends.

Bro wake up, 300K is peanuts, we all gonna die someday, try to figure out how to prevent that. Regeneration thru bio electricity (levin) and mrna and genetic engineering. Live a few 100 years let ur money compound and go clap some cheeks on the nights out.

You should just stop trying. The only thing that matters is money, so why are you looking for friends? Just continue to work, make money, watch Andrew Tate videos, and deal with the fact that your ego and income makes you better than everyone else. There's no other way. Stop pursuing relationships, whether platonic or romantic, maybe one day you can program a robot to be your super successful friend. Put up or shut up

If you have to tell people that you’re something then you’re probably not
