Whats the point when youre a childless man?
I work with men in their 40s and 50s that dont have children.
These men are average looking, normally dressed, make a decent income, drive a normal car. Are they mentally ill? I cant grasp what drives a 52yo childless man to wake up and go about his day knowing he has no legacy, no children to care for, be proud of, no real cross to carry. What compels a childless man to wake up when he knows he’s a genetic deadend?
Mmen today would rather live meaningless lives on the internet instead of actually living in the real world. What effect will this lost time have once realization sets in that they are never going to get it back? Sitting behind a screen indoors all day dependent on others is not being a renegade and refusing to play the game. You will never procreate which is the whole biological point of life and no amount of “I’m not breeding more cattle for them” will rationalize this.
Videogames, cartoons, and toys are not replacements for a life of purpose, meaningful work, and loving wife and children. Ersatz living through video games, parasocial relationships online, mindless pixel distractions etc is hell. You are just killing time and when you’re 40 you’ll look back at your wasted youth with shame and dread. The amount of time of being a NEET could’ve been you saving and investing all your money for 10-15 even 20 years.
Im going to give you a hint about waiting on a job in the future. You are in a race against time. Ageism is real in the job market. The longer you wait to get a job, the harder it is going to be to get one. Lets say you get a degree at 35, who is going to hire you for an entry level position when youre competing against people who finished their degrees at 22-26? The ageism would be fair because why waste your time with someone who makes it clear that they arent prioritizing their life? If you cant manage your own life, why would I want you managing any aspect of my company?
