I found that article I'd quoted back around '07. It was a real eye-opener and I've thought about it since with much fervor. Every time I see a big winner stand there holding that mega check, I wince. "Blood in the water".

Better work on things you can actually accomplish or at least give it your best.

A dream without a plan is just a dream.

You can see right from the title that this thread is going to be about dreams.

I don't see you adding any value to the thread by coming in solely to post that it's useless.

I doubt anyone here believes in shit like "The Secret". I'm sure everyone is aware that goals need actions.

It's a fun concept that everyone does at one point or another with friends. Hell, when I was a kid, my best friend made me promise that if I ever got really rich, I would bankroll an expedition to find a Yeti.

On top of that, there has actually been some legit advice dropped.

You never know, someone on RVF may come into a big inheritance, lottery, or one of the young guys may be just starting out in a high paying career path.


Or maybe they will find a new lottery hack like these people:

http://www.wired.com/magazine/2011/01/ff_lottery/all/

Quote:Srivastava had been hooked by a different sort of lure—that spooky voice, whispering to him about a flaw in the game. At first, he tried to brush it aside. “Like everyone else, I assumed that the lottery was unbreakable,” he says. “There’s no way there could be a flaw, and there’s no way I just happened to discover the flaw on my walk home.”

And yet, his inner voice refused to pipe down. “I remember telling myself that the Ontario Lottery is a multibillion-dollar-a- year business,” he says. “They must know what they’re doing, right?”

That night, however, he realized that the voice was right: The tic-tac-toe lottery was seriously flawed. It took a few hours of studying his tickets and some statistical sleuthing, but he discovered a defect in the game: The visible numbers turned out to reveal essential information about the digits hidden under the latex coating. Nothing needed to be scratched off—the ticket could be cracked if you knew the secret code.

Quote:"Bishop native wins millions for 4th time."
A sixty three-year-old woman named Joan R. Ginther had won $10 million, the top prize in the Texas Lottery’s Extreme Payout scratch-off game. Ginther’s cumulative winnings now totaled $20.4 million.

Quote:Once she discovered a pattern, Ginther would have had to wait until a winning ticket was scheduled to show up in a sparsely populated region —the less competition for that winning ticket, the better.

Oh, for sure.

But there are a lot of rich people who enjoy anonymity.

I saw a guy in Cabo who was getting ignored. Then he had a friend put word out that he was a telecom billionaire. Suddenly the girls started flocking to him.

You'd have never noticed it looking at him and in fact no one outside of his entourage knew or could tell.

You could be out in San Francisco and drinking beers with a Facebook $100 millionaire and not even know it.

Unless someone has your name and Googles you, how are they going to know you're rich?

What has been shown repeatedly is that family relationships with become problematic. Every cousin, uncle, and nephew (three times removed) will have his or her hand out and few will think you've given them their "fair share."

I personally would pay off every family member's mortgage, all their consumer/credit card debt, and then create college trust funds for any kids and set up medical trust funds for my parents so that they would always have platinum level medical care. But that's it. I wouldn't retire anyone. (My dad would laugh if I tried giving him money to retire, so retiring my parents would be a moot point.)

So if you avoid family and people who know you, you can sail off into the sunset with your cash.

Neil can only be bothered with guys he can sell his books to, and guys he can sponge off of in L.A.

If you're just a regular guy who enjoys bullshitting about what it'd be like winning the lottery, he has no use for you.

As far as "swooping lizards" goes...

Maybe I've missed it but it seems like the most obvious way has been left out.

Throw epic house parties.

House parties wouldn't even burn through your money. At 5% returns, you're looking at $10 million a year. (Find a way to shelter that from taxes.)

What's a fat pad going to cost you? $5 or so million. It's real estate, anyway, and buying a super party palace would ultimately be an investment. So it's not like that 5 or 10 million is wiped out.

Staffing the party with liquor and caterers isn't that expensive.

If your crib is the go-to spot in a place like Miami, Hollywood Hills, Cabo...the rest will take care of itself.

Who's coming to the after party?

How about we take a weekend trip to Cabo?

Do you think we can get girls on Spring Break to leave Cabo Wabo for our infinity pool?

Post: #58

The guys I've seen have the most success and were surrounded by hot girls had two things. A kick ass boat and a waterfront house with a pool. Women (hot) just love this deal. I'm talking real Hugh Heffner kind of stuff here.

I'd have a custom 24k gold shirt made to wear to the clubs. Bitches love gold so their love must transfer to me cause I'm wearing it. Bet no one has thought of that one yet.

" Maybe I've missed it but it seems like the most obvious way has been left out.

Yup, I said it in the first response - hire guys like McQueen and the SBE crew and you'd never have to leave your house. Party planner plus promoters means all you have to do is shell out money and drink. Also get a wing-girl to sing your praises at the party to random hot girls.

Actually, I think casual dinner parties might be a better idea - with a raging house party you'd have such a volume of babes that almost all of them would go unfucked by you. Cheaper and way easier on your body.

There's also sugar babies, which I'm sure would be cheaper than epic house parties - but it feels a little tawdry for the player's conscience.

We are sharp enough, and strive for excellence. The point of the board is for like-minded men to share ideas and help one another move forward. Not come onto a thread and piss on the wheels of progress. There's nothing wrong with dreaming, some of the biggest men in history were.

To clarify, dreams are great. I was just trying to add that many of them are realistically attainable. And if anyone thinks out of the box enough to get there, it's RVF type guys.

Every guy on here I meetup with puts money first. That's what we talk about. I spent MANY hours with members in the DR discussing money and success, then we go out to chase tail to blow off steam. Just that alone is a dream to many guys in the world.

Pussy is secondary. We're all trying to achieve those dreams, and many of us have to varying degrees. "Making it big" and then calling guys cunts is a real douche move. Not cool.

Agreed. And for the record I was by no means defending that insult.

Good post. I remember on another board, some dude mentioned renting Limos at Concerts, and swooping Lizards in the parking lot afterwards. They assumed he must of been part of one of the Performers entourages.

I knew a guy who was the limo driver for a famous nfl quarterback. Said the QB was cleaning up at the club and getting blowies in the limo.

This is why I work so hard at becoming better. I am a dreamer.

My fantasies about greatness have recently coalesced into this single image.

The image is of a man standing with his hands on his waist looking out at the Manhattan skyline. He is in his office on one of the top floors of a massive skyscraper. There is some high end liquor to the side. He is in perfect physical condition, and is wearing an extravagant high end suit that is perfectly cut for his body.

This is who I want to become. I do not know exactly what the image represents beyond that of a great man who has experienced success beyond his wildest dreams.
