“Sex robots will free men from the sexual tyranny of women”
Sex robots are not an “if” but a “when”. Other technological advancements such as custom AI porn and hyper realistic augmented reality will be the intermediate steps.
Once men have ubiquitous access to sex with their own versions of 10/10s, the current humiliation rituals of jestering for women (expecting to be the one to approach/ask out), achieving success, being “extroverted”, caring about women’s political opinions etc will all be obsolete.
Women will be begging for male attention…. Unfortunately competing with a 10/10 18 to 21 year old (ideal ages) hyper feminine sex robot harem will be next to impossible.

Why “I’ll Be Rich Someday” Is the Most Dangerous Retirement Plan
There’s a retirement plan that doesn’t involve a 401(k), an IRA, or even a savings account.
It sounds like this:
I’ll make more money eventually.
Once I get that promotion, I’ll start saving.
Once the business takes off, I’ll catch up.
Once the kids are older, I’ll have extra money.
Once I’m making real money, then I’ll get serious.

What I Learned After Nearly 20 Years as a CFO
I’ve spent almost twenty years as a CFO, mostly working with smaller and midsized companies backed by venture capital or private equity.
When I say smaller, I mean smaller by Wall Street standards. The companies I’ve worked with have generally ranged from around $10 million to $200 million in revenue. You probably haven’t heard of any of them. But I’ve been inside the room for acquisitions, fundraising, board meetings, financial crises, growth spurts, layoffs and sales of companies to strategic buyers and private equity firms.

You piled into the family car and drove to that unmistakable building with the giant red roof. Inside, it was dark and cozy. There were stained-glass lamps, red plastic cups filled with Pepsi, a salad bar, arcade machines, and booths you could disappear into.
