I didn't say anything about not working on yourself, but it's gotta be for your own approval. If you only try to establish connections with ppl based on how much money you make, well you're kind of narrowing a funnel a bit hey? This sort of rhetoric seems less about self-improvement and more about blaming people for your need to do so. Can't be framed as "Hey I fixed X, now will you sleep with me!?". The work should be put into (imo) just being more comfortable to be around and less of a goober if you are one. When was the last time you just had an unassuming conversation that went well with someone down at the cafe, or met people at your gym that you vibed with? To say it's likely to find someone if you have zero charisma, aren't outgoing, have no hobbies, no sense of humour, and no beauty would be foolish, but then you're probably not even getting out from behind your computer at that point. That said, people have even met their spouses in World of Warcraft, so hope is not all lost.
