The brokest men in my family aren't married. The most successful men in my family are married so I think I will follow what they doing.

Are they broke because they’re unmarried or are they unmarried because they’re broke?

All I know is if you want to max out your lifetime earnings and lifespan --- you should probably get married.

I wouldn't make important life decisions based on outliers. Yeah some dudes can max out their potential and live a long life as a bachelor. But most brothas won't. A wife and children motivate people to unlock potential they didn't know they had.

Most dudes promoting GMB probably can't compete with other men to get the wifey material chicks so they devote their life to an online movement against marriage.

You’re implying that broke men should get married and make babies purely for monetary motivation? They’d be fools and the women willing to sign up for that would be even bigger fools.

Nah. Women seek out and prefer well off men or men with the potential to be well off. That is why well of men tend to be married. It’s not the other way around. Men with money have the best options.
