- If you are/were at a large or mid-sized organization (middle range businesses are those that have 250-500 employees) start looking at small sized businesses and startups.
2. Participate in conferences, developers forums, seminars and strategy forums. The more involved you are in your profession and the more you know about verticals the better. Speak to and meet your peers and avantgarde leaders.
3. Whatever your last employer, your best chances are to get hired by a competitor. This doesn’t change regardless of your industry and profession.
4. If you haven’t bought the Book of the Underdog yet, buy it. It is the best, life changing book on personal and professional development of the last decade. Now, 3 years later and into a new decade, the book still holds as the gold standard.
5. Pivot if you have to. Read the 15 Invalubale Laws of Growth by John C. Maxwell and The Big Pivot: Radically Practical Strategies for a Hotter, Scarcer, and More Open World by Andrew S. Winston.
Relationships
All amorous relationships in your life need to be dynamic. We have numerous posts here on relationships from the male perspective: do a search for 2019 and 2020 and you’ll be floored with relationship advice. We don’t follow the mainstream advice on “working in relationships” because once a relationship needs “work” (other than minor corrections) I believe the relationship should be curtailed. Things to bear in mind:
-People naturally grow apart.
-Monogamy is a myth and all the happy couples that I know have or have had, multiple lovers.
-All relationships end in breakups, hopefully the breakup is gracious and well-choreographed, eg. you have a prenup and a postnup.
-The way you got into that relationship the same way you will split up.
-I don’t recommend marriage for men. If you get married you need to clearly spell out your economic arrangement with the woman. No ambiguity. (The honeymoon phase usually ends in 6 months).
-If you’ve made the mistake of getting married and have kids, you need to obtain 50/50 custody. That is for the kids since they need both a father and a mother in their lives.
Max: Hey man, thanks for agreeing to make this call public, on my website. I should say “public” with your name changed and no face shown. People have gotten so picky nowadays, if they don’t put a name to a face, Youtube or something, they get cramps.
Don: So let them get it. I can’t put my face out there.
Max: Understood. You have a regular job. Pulling ass is not your occupation. That’s how I introduced you: you are not a dating coach, not a Roland-Garros champion, not a heir to some fortune. Not a pornstar. Not a rockstar. We got that out of the way.
Don: Good.
Max: For 99.9% of men in America, you pulled a record. [I have a record of my own, but is smaller by comparison…]
Don: We’re all doing the best we can, Max. I know you’d be upping your numbers if you weren’t so damn busy.
Max: Let’s get right to it. What’s the secret sauce ? How do you get them, and how do you get them so fast ? Or I should say: How are you so effective ?
Don: Your vibe, man. The hippies were right: it’s your vibe. And by the way I get more women who are married / in relationships that I get single women. There is no such thing as a single woman, my man.
Max: My readers and I, we talk to women. But we don’t get them into bed. We get maybe 5%. How do you ?
Don: I’m pretty clear from the beginning. You see, just as women are gaging me, I gage them, too. I read women fast, within 5-30 seconds. If she is not a suitable prospect, I eject.
Max: And I thought I don’t try hard enough. I thought we [men] give up too quickly, or using your words,” eject” too soon.
Don: No. You guys fluster and flip all over the place. You don’t have the right concentration. I take their buying temperature and raise it faster than mercury. Then, when I’m around them, you see, I always -maybe not now cause of the Covid shit -am right up to their faces. I am into their personal space. Even if I don’t say much, or say nothing at all. No need to grab their butts to do that.
Max: Makes sense. What else ?
Don: I used to throw a weekly party at my place, and I’d invite them.
Max: No cocaine at those parties, huh ?
Don: Nah. I don’t need that. I have a stripper’s pole, professional, and I let them wonder around it. Most chicks have never seen or used one.
Max: There you go. Cats can play with the string. You know, last Christmas in my gift buying list I recommended men buy and fix one up in their bedrooms. And where you do find them ladies ?
Don: Everywhere. On the street, subway, bus, classes, seminars, conferences, outings.
Max: You’re a class act. You make wives and girlfriends happy.
Don: I do. We are wired for novelty: when a man meets a woman, assuming they are attracted to each other, you have a period of 6 months, perhaps a bit longer, during which sex should be consumed. If she rejects you (or you reject her) for all intents and purposes she is relegated to history. If you can’t consume sex within that period, your attraction to her automatically drops. Simply put, your genetic screen blanks out to that woman. You see her again one or two years later: let me tell you, you won’t be attracted to her anymore. She’s the same woman, still looking good…but under the laws of nature, old news is no news. Meanwhile, if you two get together you might even fall in love but be prepared for the expiration date. There’s an expiration date for the attraction towards any woman, and I mean even the most beautiful woman in the world.
Max: I talked about the falling “out-of-love” concept too, in one of this year’s articles. But I never thought that your “attraction” receptors are a one time receptor and after one frequency gets used it never gets synced again. Am I putting this right, Don ?
Don: Absolutely. Falling in love is followed by falling out of love with ANY woman. This is why men must have rotations.
Max: I agree. How do you keep them from dumping you, though ?
Don: You don’t. Nobody is “dumping” you. The leaves are naturally falling of the trees. Happens every year.
Max: Wow, nobody has made that association before. Don’t you make any efforts to keep your women interested in you ?
Don: Not really. I keep it at a bare minimum. Remember, I used to make $25K a year when I graduated high-school. I had the same number of women in rotation back then. Some birds were staying for a month, while some were in for a year. I didn’t mind. You’re free to leave me when you do. I was sharing my lunches with some, while others were paying my rent. I did not mind either.
Max: Man, you sound like some freestyling, freewheeling Casanova. I bet you’re good in bed [no homo].
Don: I keep them on their toes. You can say I do what they don’t expect and what they don’t get. But it’s my razor sharp focus that allows me to score while others fail. But I don’t fuck every night. That would be exhausting to anyone with a busy career. However, I get some nights when I fuck three girls, the 8 PM shift, the 10 PM and then the 12 AM shift.
Max: What else can men do to get to your level ? Obviously, most men don’t go out every night, especially during Covid you can’t really go out anywhere. The clubs and restaurants have to close at 10 PM in New York.
Don: Stay busy. Learn how to read a woman and raise her interest. Be social. Close on the spot. Let her talk about herself -women think more of themselves than anything else. Their favorite subject is themselves after all.
Max: Listen, I need to do a Part Two with you. Thank you for this call.
Don: Sure. Bye.

Until next time,
Your Man,
Max
- Reader Cornelius asks What is the ideal age of the women you should date ?
Answer: There is no set age, at least not in my book. Young guys (20s) will gravitate towards women who are their age or slightly older. However, the formula that’s most widely used and accepted is dividing your own age by two and add a seven to it. So, if your 40 years old, 40/2 + 7 = 27. Your best bet is a woman aged 27 (or around that). But if you’re really in good shape, I say just halve your age.
2. Reader Clark asks: I’m a founder of a tech startup (medical field). How can I get some information on the investors in my field. I need to know who is reliable and truthful to his word.
Answer: Your best bet is to go to this website, VCguide where founders review anonymously fund & investor partners (NPS reviews). Lots of people use it, and I believe it is updated monthly.
3. Reader Paul says: I’m going through a divorce and a layoff. It’s tougher than nails. What would you do ?
Answer: Paul, obviously there no short and easy answer. As I had pointed out many times in this blog, you must take forget about getting married again -you don’t want to fall into that trap. Be a man. 395 articles on this blog in 7+ years should help you on your quest. It is never too late to start over.
4. How many people should I have on my team, asks Sean. Sean is a founder of his own SaaS company.
Sean I don’t know what stage your company is at, specifically which funding stage. SenovoVC has a post on it. Hope it help
“On the founder / MD level, the roles and responsibilities shall move into three classical C-level roles, namely Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and Chief Operating Officer (COO including the financing responsibility)…”

How is a Wall Street veteran to weight in the battle of the sexes ? From a strategic point, men have lost that battle. Women have largely won, their sense of self-aggrandizement and self-entitlement is out-of-scale. A few bright guys in the manosphere brought to light the so called reality based “red pill” thinking, but that is not necessarily new.
Women initiate 70% of divorces, so who’s in the driver seat ?

“Love never dies of starvation, but often of indigestion”. -Ninon de L’Enclos, French author
Let’s have a look at dating and female manipulation with excerpts
from Rev. Lawrence Shannon’s “The Predatory Female” 1992 book
What women want
Q. Beyond herself and her status with other women, does anything else pique her interest?
A. Yes, any combination of money, romance, and excitement. The scent of these accommodations will have her rising like a cobra in a wicker basket. The provider of such diversions occupies center stage in her life, but his identity is unimportant to her, and it’s a temporary position. Nobody can amuse her forever. All pied pipers eventually fade into the past.The end game
When you begin to fraternize with a woman, you are taking the first steps in a ritual mating dance that, if allowed to progress, will result in your moving about the floor in a semi-comatose state until you are fleeced of your money, property, and peace of mind. A predatory female will study you. She learns to know what you are thinking. She begins the strongest primeval death grip known to man.
Male drones are essential to matriarchy
…the matriarchal system could never operate efficiently without the hordes of male drones it has created. These men, preconditioned by their mothers and suffering from a self-imposed order of chivalry, consistently front for the system and its predatory female masters.
Hard to win
If an individual fails to understand that a female’s charms are never given, only loaned, he is doomed to exploitation. The male must constantly remember that there is absolutely no such entity as an exclusive use of a woman’s sexual favors. There are always other men, and sometimes women. The man’s innate desire to possess a female, to have his own little sex doll and intimate companion, is his biggest vulnerability. A predatory female will use this weakness to lead him into a trap and destroy him.
Alimony
Many divorced men are sending monthly alimony checks to women bearing little resemblance, physically or mentally, to the ones they married.
What About Love?
Q. You haven’t mentioned love as an interest of the predatory female. Why?
A. The predatory female never loves a man; she only loves the love. This is a basic rule.The Chameleon Syndrome
Q. What is the chameleon syndrome?
A. A quasi-supernatural transformation, the chameleon syndrome is the predatory female’s unholy ability to become whatever the script calls for in “hooking” a man. She will adopt his viewpoints, his attitudes, his hobbies, and his dislikes. Her personality will change to suit his. She will enroll in classes, become a gourmet cook, stop smoking, switch religions, accept his friends, humor his jealousies, develop a relationship with his relatives, or whatever else is called for. She will change colors in the rocks like a chameleon! Of all the traits exhibited by predatory females, this chameleon syndrome is one of the most lethal.Disguises
Q. Do predatory females physically disguise themselves?
A. Yes. The predatory female habitually employs subterfuge. Each morning across America, millions of women don disguises. They use make-up, wigs, face paint, phony eyebrows, false eye lashes, eye shadow, lipstick, false fingernails, hair color, corsets, sprays, and other camouflage.
Women’s clothing designers often refer to the “illusion” they are creating. Occasionally these females improve that appearance, but the fact remains they are hiding something. They are fooling somebody. The practice is so commonplace that few see it for what it is: deception.
Slot Machine
Q. And a date is like feeding in the first quarter?
A. Yes, and you might hit a jackpot. But sooner or later the slot takes it all back with interest.Remember, she is happiest when she is working to please you.— Rivelino (@alpharivelino) February 21, 2017
Role Reversal
Q. What is the role reversal safeguard?
A. It’s a simple step to guard against doing something stupid when dealing with a predatory female. Just reverse the situation and ask yourself if she would do what she’s asking or expecting you to do. A good example is marriage. Few women would marry if the conditions and ground rules were reversed. Under no circumstance would a predatory female put herself in the legally and financially subservient position that a man assumes when he marries. Role reversal always illuminates dealings with predatory females. Sometimes when buying an expensive dinner for a female, ask yourself if
she would do that for you. Would she buy your dinner and pay for your drinks? Anytime you find yourself fanning your wallet around a woman, try the role reversal test.Guilt
Q. How does the predatory female use guilt to manipulate males?
A. Guilt is one of the predatory female’s most powerful tools. With guilt, she keeps her victims on the defensive. She uses it on males from a young age, at the outset of dating, to control them. She is surprised at how eagerly they accept this charade. She makes them feel guilty about simply wanting sex, a basic, primal urge. Once successful at that, the pattern is set. Cultivating a habit of making men feel apologetic about their wants, sexual or otherwise, she assumes the aristocrat role – expecting things done for her – and silently demands that her male companion take the role of butler,
chauffeur, valet, and financial benefactor. The male, while simultaneously suffering from a guilt trip and nurturing a sniveling desire to get laid, is delighted to pick up the tab.
Another Pitfall
Q. What other seeds of destruction are inherent in marriage?
A. Although either unaware or able to conceal it, the new wife is almost immediately dissatisfied. She wanted stability and security, but now finds these commodities boring. There’s no adventure or excitement. She begins to chafe at the bit. She halfway wishes her husband had stuck to his guns when he originally declined to marry. She begins to resent him for marrying her. In a sense, she will never forgive him for letting her do this to herself. Finally, like a cow grazing along the edge of a field, she begins leaning on the fence. The fence bows and stretches awkwardly. Without crossing over, she may soon be able to enjoy the next pasture while defecating in her own.Perpetual Estrangement
Q. My wife has remained distant and cold to me for a long time but has never mentioned a divorce. It’s like living in a limbo. Your comments?
A. A woman doesn’t have to physically leave you to dump you. Millions of wives don’t give a damn about their husbands, but are happy to spend his money and enjoy, what is for them, the prestige and benefits of marriage.Big Wedding
Q. My ex-inlaws couldn’t get into a pay toilet so my parents paid for most of a large and expensive wedding. With the divorce in progress, they feel ripped off, too.
A. Very common. Another basic rule states that the length of the marriage is inversely proportional to the cost of the wedding.Let It Rest
Q. Rev. Shannon, do you have any comments for divorced women?
A. Only to quote the immortal words of Hoveden: “Stir not the embers with the sword.”The Beginning
Q. How do I re-program myself?
A. Condition yourself physically and mentally. Most people look like gunnysacks full of doorknobs. This is partially due to heavy doses of dependency on predatory females. Work out every day and get yourself into good physical shape. Take up a sport and start running. Do what predatory females have done for thousands of years – concentrate completely on yourself

Don’t moan and groan or bitch—I’ve never tolerated that, because it’s contagious.— Barbara Corcoran (@BarbaraCorcoran) February 12, 2017
What is a guy to do to increase his chances of winning at this lottery ?
- Get a girl who had a strong male father figure. These are the girls with the best upbringing that reinforced the values of femininity and submissiveness.
- I think older males getting younger girls it’s a win if they get to mold them. Hedge funder John Paulson married an immigrant girl who was working as his secretary and that marriage seems to be holding water.
- While you are dating you can hang a sign outside your bedroom door reading “Golddiggers not welcomed.” If someone’s asking about the sign you can say you only welcome goldiggers if they’re at a mortuary digging though dead people teeth.
- Establish your policy to keep women accountable. The tweet above, from a woman, Barbara Corcoran (who’s also a judge on Shark Tank) should be your policy.
- Well, what do you do if you are dealing with the busy career oriented women like those in the poll that rejected 60% of dates [even if good looking] because those men were making less money than themselves ? Do you even want their narcissistic misanthropic pull ? They live by this rule and [Sex and the City] culture.
