and vice versa

Correlation, yes, causation, weak to moderate (and that's usually going from utility to self worth, not the other way around).

self-worth can grant you higher utility

your mentality can make you work harder

fake it till you make it kind of thing

@Space wix Lol, and it turned out that the "bad guys" downright opted to allow the "normies" to blow them up or not.

if you have supportive friends and a good social circle

of people that have high utility value

See, you're still deriving value from people.

so there can be causation in that way

There's nothing wrong with that. We are social animals.

i'm agreeing with what you're saying

I'm just looking at what you said about causation

Ah, that wasn't clear. I was thinking about the joker.

well is having a high utility value bad?

Absolutely not.

a lot of MGTOW men seem to think so

do they actually though?

i know that's anecdotal but a lot of youtubers

yeah some

That's because they are including a premise that is largely unspoken.

they see it as having a big red target on your head that makes you more exploitable

"it is not beneficial to be of high value ||to women||"

but not from the perspective of being able to help more people

or provide yourself financial security

"it is stupid to provide assistance ||to women||"

to advertise you're a millionaire is a silly move, to be a millionaire is not

I see what you're saying

So i'm about to start my first year of law school in august

as a 1L

I have to thank my wife for making me a millionaire.

Before her, I was a billionaire.

Oof
