Is the concept of friendship overrated, financially speaking?

Is the concept of friendship overrated, financially speaking?
It seems too tribalistic for the modern world, where you don't have to worry about survival and can get a huge variety of resources for cheap. It just doesn't pay to invest in a friendship anymore because all you would ever need from them is readily available and commoditized.

Im not saying you are, but this is defo a question an autist would ask

This nigga got a whole table just for his tv

That's entirely based on perspective. Personally, I think, and this is while having extreme scorn for them, that people are really the whole point. If you were the last person on earth, what the fuck are you left to do without another person to exchange with in some meaningful way?

You have autism

Unless you're talking about reproduction, there aren't many things that explicitly require someone else to be bound to you in some sort of relationship.

Found the leeching nigger "friends" that cry when you dont pay their tab or loan money for their Instafag beach vacation.

>It just doesn't pay to invest in a friendship anymore because all you would ever need from them is readily available and commoditized.
Based sociopath.

I know this is hard for you to wrap your autistic mind around but cronyism is rampant in literally every industry and being friends with people can help get you get hooked up with jobs, promotions, contracts, etc.

Financially speaking, friends have the best yield of any investment. High upfront time investment with little ongoing maintenance. I have a plumber friend, a carpenter friend, an electrician friend, a lawyer friend, a finance guru friend, a real estate agent friend, and a construction friend with access to large equipment. My friends have saved me tens of thousands of dollars and will likely save me hundreds of thousands throughout my life. My friends are potential business clients and partners, and I am the same for them. We support each other to avoid paying retail.

Not at all. If you're paying for friends you're probably autistic, which also would explain your image and misogyny. Have sex, incel.

>Is the concept of friendship overrated, financially speaking?
Even if you the super autistic approach, friendship (nepotism) is still very relevant in the world. On the other side you wouldnt hire some fucking idiot of the street to be your employee or to puchase goods/services from.

In case you havent figured it out, yes friendship is still very relevant.

Networking lands you jobs and opportunities

Best answer ITT.

stop looking for excuses for continuing to be socially retarded OP. we are social creatures, however the FUCK you want to base your social circle, be it a group of bros to play vidya with, a fucking hackathon group, or better yet, find some bros to play some sports and grab beers with, however the fuck you want to go about it; face your fear of rejection and get out there and do it.

motherfucker, talm bout 'is it financially advantageous to have friends.' nigga shut. the. fuck. up. start chatting people up in your daily life. start small at first because yo ass sounds retarded, no offense. going to the grocery store? cool, make some stupid bullshit chit chat with the cashier. getting gas? go in, buy a pack of combos and a scratch off and make a stupid shitty joke about hoping you win to the cashier. do this shit EVERY. DAY.
literally, everyone you interact with start pushing that fucking boundary more and more, always keep in mind that YOU HAVE TO ASK THE QUESTIONS. people dont give a shit if youre into stocks and gunpla or whatever the fuck because people like talking about themselves until they deem you cool enough to interact with. so just start fucking asking everyone a little bit about yourself and before you know it, BOOM youve got a nice little circle of acquaintances and with a little more effort, those people become your actual friends. fucking shit. everyone on this board is so scared of every little thing, yall niggas need someone to hold your hand for everything. stop being little bitches and get out there and live life. stop worrying about the bad shit, jesus christ.

the less friends you have, the more you can focus on yourself, on your success, on your pleasure, and on your sexual attractiveness; if every men saw every others men as a competitors, the world would be much better! competitors can cooperate, but in no way share a social link, family is the only social link

If you lose your local police, you better have friends/community.

An upturned milk crate would suffice. What a wasteful scoundrel.

That's kinda sad but true. Friends today are mostly useless. What are their purpose anyway, get drunk in party, listening to shit music? You could see friends as a way to get access to women, but when you see the hassle it is, and the shit quality of women which belong in these group of "friends", you really ask yourself if it is worth the hassle. You'll find yourself hoping that in the next party, the girl you like will be there. But it can take months. Also, some people in these group of friends won't like you.
I honestly think that day game might be a better way to access girls than social circle game. Even night game, if you have the balls to go to bar and night club alone, talking to girls.

Frenships matter.

(...) Going back about the usefulness of friends today, yes, they are mostly useless. Capital is more important, and Capital comes throught your work, or your blood family. The only use of friends would be if there was some total economical collapse, where you would need friends to help protect yourself, and fight back potential invaders, but even then, the average millenial or zoomer would be useless, and even a burden for your survival. Only friends that would be worthwile in such situation would be friends that can fight, shoot a gun, hunt, and are good at handiwork. The average tertiary sector pseudo chad would be trash, and probably a liability.

I agree. I used to be obsessed with friends because I wanted a place where I belonged. After a while, I realized how worthless it is to try and get that from other people. I don't see any of my friends from back then anymore. Everyone I know turned out to be kike in the end anyways.

You can smell the incel from a mile away.

I have never had a friend who didnt fuck me over eventually, I dont know if I'm just unlucky or what.

>engage with the cattle
You and OP are based. Family, if you were raised right, is the only union that need and matters. Blood is thicker than water.

Find all the machine guns, booze and weed and drive around shooting stuff.
Rob the gold from fort knox.
You fucking loser.

I also have bags, broke nigga

I'm pretty sure chad-worshiping and jerking each other off over your "self-love" still constitutes friendly behavior. Epic virtue signaling, though - too bad you don't practice what you preach so nobody worth a shit will ever take you seriously.

You are pretty far from the truth incel. But i guess you are used to it.

faggot

Depends on what you consider friendship I guess. There's the mutual exchange of assets and time, and then there's leeching. Both can be enjoyable depending on what kind of person you are.
The job I have now is largely due to helping out a classmate that was struggling. I helped her out, set up a study group with a few other students that were struggling, and two years later she came to me with first dibs on a job at the company she worked at. That job has worked out very nicely for me.
I don't necessarily believe in karma, but I do think at least a third of the people you'll ever interact with are the kind to get even, for better or worse. Hence why when I've got time and it doesn't cost me much, I don't mind helping. At at best I gain a valuable acquaintance, at worst I learn something.

t. incels who have no counter-argument. Bow down, cattle.

nigger

I have a 2K standing desk and no TV. What a waste of money for on TV shit that makes no money. My computer desk helps me work longer and will make it's money back over the next few years.

You bugs are really retarded.

The other activities I agree with, would be fun to be a degenerate wastelander.

only a trannie would use that niggerfaggot

Nice

The truth is religion is the most powerful tool in our universe. Myths bore symbols; symbols bore language, language bore thought. Christianity is dead and you are are atheist. Atheism is unironically a religion. When anti or absent of the concept of "divinity" , OP replaced the concept with "efficiency". Basically being an incel is convenient cope because of this concept
