It seems you can't be a stoic holding these sweet dirty banknotes.

Remember, the emotional trauma you feel when you spend that $80 is just weakness leaving your body.

Our monthly subscription is nothing but a test of your restraint and tolerance to a sudden lose. It's for you to feel empowered, and, please, don't you feel obligated to thank me. I won't even roll down my new car's window to you. Alphas don't communicate verbally anyway, you should've got it by that time.

I feel it worth mentioning in response to all these comments that my liking to stoicism has nothing to do with either cryptobro bullshit or alpha male bullshit I think it's just a good healthy way of dealing with day to day life in a world that you have very little individual power to change.
