Ever notice that most guys who are really jacked......

[calveless wonder]

....usually drive shitty cars, have mediocre jobs, and aren't very successful in life outside of the gym? Sure, everyone's definition of success is different, but overall most of these really big dudes i see/talk to probably dont make more than 40-60k a year and are stuck in go nowhere careers.

I hate to generalize, but i noticed this is an overwhelming trend. I'm guessing it's because of the amount of time most people have to dedicate to eating/cooking/the gym itself to attain that type of physique.

of course you have exceptions (pitbullstl was always one of the dudes that stuck out in my head), but it's a little discouraging.

i know i've never been able to completely focus on business(and my social life for that matter) and the gym at the same time and give both maxium effort. i've either been relatively jacked and broke, or doing well and out of shape. right now i'm probably above average with both.

that balance is tough to attain. especially without any gear. if you're running growth hormone (somatropin) - year round and doing a couple of cycles yearly (or if you just have awesome genetics), i can see it being alot easier.

i figure if i make enough money to be completely comfortable, i'll minimize the stuff that takes alot of time (cooking, prepping food) and just pay someone to do it.

I've noticed the "jacked-up younger crowd" mostly work 2-3 part-time jobs... two usually involving bartentering or bouncer & some other dirty job (like changing oil at kwik-lube) where they don't get to dress up & strut. That's the job they never want to talk about... but they think their food service industry gig is real glamorous... & yes, they're always broke.

I definetly notice that many very in shape guys have less money? maybe its just the ones we see at the gym cuz the wealthy ones might have nice home gym's but from who I have came accross many Not all do sacrifice high paying careers for fit lives (filled with woman I might add) I need a happy medium!

I've actually noticed the opposite. Guys that get jacked and have the disicpline to get that way have certain 'success' qualities that translate into other facets of life.

40-60K is a lot where I live

i noticed that guys that aren't jacked make a lot of noise about those who are...along with dudes w/ small penii.....

Every really jacked guy I ever dated was a tortilla short of a carne asada, mentally. Maybe it was only a coincidence, but I try to avoid that type.


PS -- since when did 40-60k become really loserish? I thought that would be squarely middle class.
