The median income in the US is about $40k/year. The median home price in the US is about $422k. About 10.5x the median income.
In 1970, the median income was about $8,500/year, and the median home price was about $23k. Not even 3x the median income. As an average guy, your wage went farther towards buying a home than 2 wages today. On top of it, the interest rates are out the ass high.

I like toys. I like computer games. I like models. I like board games. I don't like sports, cars, camping, hunting or arc welding chastity belts.

But I would be lying if I said I didn't wish I had my own family to play with that stuff.

It's honestly neither here nor there to have a hobby but when your house is overflowing with junk it's time to look at yourself.

So many people I know spend a fortune on distraction but their house is untidy, they dress like crap, eat poorly etc

Also many hobbies now are predicated on collecting and consumption which is not healthy. At least if you're into music or cooking you can produce something creative.

You're not getting the massive gap between an average man's unskilled labor and what is necessary to support a family. You can push for a decent raise, but you can't "unionize" hard enough to make them multiply your wage 2.5x over.
The problem isn't "do manly shit", the problem is "manly shit doesn't pay manly wages". There needs to be MASSIVE societal change to make the normal man's unskilled labor enough to support a family.
All women need to be removed from the workforce, immigration in its entirety needs to stop, bullshit, make-work jobs need to be gutted and reduced to a bare minimum, and THEN we can talk about unionizing what remains.

>>510021538
I have no problem with organized labor. The opposite, actually. I think organized labor is the best shot that people have collectively of getting the most they can out of an employer. I'd encourage more places to unionize and collectively bargain.
The problem is we're beyond what we can bargain for at this point. The labor pool itself needs to diminish to give it stronger bargaining power. Women need to be gone from the workplace, immigration needs to end, illegals need to be kicked out, then a man's labor becomes valuable again. I'd still encourage bargaining to squeeze as much as you can now, but if you're at a place paying you 45k a year, you're not going to squeeze enough out of them to make them double your wage, which is pretty much what's required to live the basic life I laid out.
Mass immigration and the creation of these bullshit makework female daycare jobs directly impact how effectively you can collectively bargain.

>>510022109
If their makework job displaced you what would you otherwise be doing?

>>510022044
>compete and organize
>yes goy, fight among yourselves to see who can take the least pay!!!
Organization means the lack of competition, you retard. It means the workers own the labor that they collectively sell to the employer for the most they can negotiate. It's sounding like you're the one that's anti-union, if anything. I want people to be able to easily bargain against an employer for the most they can possibly get. Reducing the labor pool means wages go up. One wage should be able to support multiple people. Right now 1 wage barely supports 1 person. For some reason you think this is fine on a society-wide scale and your solution is "lol be better lmaooo"

>>510022377
Oh dear

>>510022330
Women's makework jobs displace EVERYONE. That's my point, you fucker. It drives down the wages of literally everyone. Even skilled tradesmen.
Cause you know what would happen if an average man's unskilled labor was able to support an entire family and buy a house? Skilled laborers would be even better off. It means they would elevate way beyond that. If a regular dude with a regular job can accomplish this basic, modest life, someone that's more skilled and better than he is can afford an even BETTER life.
Right now it seems like you have to be a highly skilled individual to accomplish this very basic lifestyle. I'm arguing that everyone's wage should be able to get them more out of life.
We've adapted the idea that every single individual needs to work, and because of it it means that everyone's individual wage should, at its base level, support only themselves. If we equated work to supporting a family, then it means everyone, men and women, would be better off.

>>510022685
Of course, this is the only inflationary driver.

Yes, people with skills will do better in service economies.

>>510021391
Unskilled labor doesn't exist, letting them call it that was probably the biggest fuckup in allowing it to get how you describe outside of undercutting with third world importation. Anyway, there are skilled and unskilled people for sure, eg yoy can have a skilled coal miner and an unskilled coal miner, but there is no unskilled labor because ALL jobs can have efficiency and output improved through applied intelligence in the field.
Also physically intensive jobs that only fit men between 18-45 or so can pull off, that physicality is a skill in itself that most of the population lacks.
We just dont acknoweledge or reward people based on fitness and output like we should. If a guy is doing twice the job as the average, whether through fitness or intelligence or whatever, he should be paid twice as much. He is skilled.

>Is it a traumatic childhood defect?
I wouldn't call my childhood entirely traumatic, but I did have a fairly abusive/narcissistic mother who always made me feel unloved and uncomfortable, so I took refuge in my toys. I gained a strong appreciation for cool-looking things that existed in 3D physical space, especially if they represented some fictional vehicle, character, or whatever that I may have been obsessed with. I just never grew out of it. Fiddling with a sick-ass toy robot or vrooming matchbox cars across my desk still brings me a great feeling of joy and peace, unlike that rotten bitch of a mother I had.

Shut up you faggot Buckees is annoying and gay.

>>510022809
Oh it's not the only one, but it's a big one. Mass immigration, illegal immigration, money printing, and I'm sure a slew of other issues I can't think of are all contributing to it, but the end goal is that I believe one man's average wage should be able to support a family and now it simply does not.
If you want to say "be better", that is an individual solution to an individual problem. If everyone worked harder and got better, it just means the average would raise, and average is no longer good enough. That's the salient issue. Average is not enough for an average life.
In the 70s, you could be an average guy making an average wage, and your money went as far as $156k/year goes today. A house was about 2.5-3x your yearly salary. Nowadays, a house is about 10.5x the average salary.

>>510025378
While that may be true, you're not as better off as you would be in a world where an average wage affords you that basic lifestyle.
You maybe several times above the average, but the average is so low and gets you so little, all you are is relatively better off, not actually, tangibly better off.
Let's say as a skilled tradesman, you'd make twice as much, or even 2.5x as much as a normal person in this service economy. This much money would afford you to buy you a house and in many areas your wife wouldn't have to work and you can live in modest comfort. You, as a skilled tradesman, are effectively living the life of a relatively unskilled factory worker 50 years ago. You're working twice as hard, at a higher skill level to achieve what a normal person did. I'd rather you and that normal person have a better life.

Life after 30 is a slow-motion suicide without family. It's all the negatives of getting old; watching your friends drift away as they start their own families, your parents and siblings getting old and die, watching everything in your life slowly putter out as the magic fades; without any of the positives of things like family or community to shore you up. Everything rots away and you're left with the bleakness of oblivion, no hope of anything continuing. Anyone who has experienced considerable ageing among his family members (or already in himself), knows how blackpilling it is. It's really rough, once people pass their early 50s (or sometimes even sooner) you start to notice the slip-ups, forgetfulness, the declining of fine motor skills, the difficulties understanding new information. Human existence is a tragedy, there are so few years that you are allowed with full mental and physical strength. Your peak years are mostly wasted with education, where you have barely any control over your own life, because you have little to no money nor autonomy. Add to that the time spent sleeping, working, hygiene, housework, shopping, appointments, visits to the workshop - what do we have left? Everyone who has to work for a living basically leads a precarious existence, regardless of whether they are a simple worker or a well-paid employee. Before they have built up a comfortable fortune and a well established understanding of the world, the body goes downhill.

hey I have a wife and kids, but my bedroom is my safe place and what makes me happy to come home to. also my wife just spent over 1k on clothing and shit prepping 2 of my kids for school soon, while I just dropped $300 on some more robots. everyone has their own moneysink.

Define a toy. Are video games or systems classified as toys? If they are, are phones then classified as a toy since they can play games?

>Unless you're raising them Amish in isolation.
We homeschool, and they get lots of time around cousins and friends from dance classes or karate lessons that they simply don't have the time nor the will to veg in front of a glowing rectangle the way we did. We're not the only ones either, a lot of people in our community are going low-tech in favor of overcompilcated lives.

Being Mormon definitely helps.

I have a plethora of real, functional firearms, but I also enjoy collecting fun/weird co2 guns and crossbows.

I've got all my mall-ninja gear (butterfly knife, k-bar, vulcanized rubber nunchucks)
But I also own a set of custom German-made chef knives from Bavaria.

Anon is right. For example, a Nerf Vulcan, the belt-fed 25-round Nerf gun, costs skywards of $200 used, with some more pristine or modified ones running into the $400s. Meanwhile, for $300 you can get a fairly decent shotgun like the Maverick 88, and a few boxes of shells. Or you can get any number of decent .22 rimfire rifles for that kind of money.
You can either play with a toy, or you can have an actual fucking gun. Most manchildren would rather have a children's toy instead of a real gun.

I'm not as upset about the fact that the manchildren are buying children's toys more than I am that they haven't upgraded. Fuck's sake, instead of buying a funko collection, they could go buy a gas minibike, which is still usable and fine and fun as an adult. Or they could buy real guns instead of nerf guns. Shit like that. Hell, if you want plastic figurines, buy the horny toys that /a/ is always on about, or if you must have funko tier shit, at least buy nendoroids instead of funkos - they're more detailed and customizable to an extent. It's just that the manchildren keep consooming bargain bin basement tier shit but pay luxury penthouse prices for that shit.

I think for a lot of dudes they grew up without dads and their friend circle (if applicable) also grew up without dads. My dad was absentee so I never learned shit about fixing cars or hunting. That's why I never really got into cars. Disfunctional familes lead to a lack of exposure to more skill based hobbies. Most guys are just waiting t die anyway, they might as well enjoy the wait how they want to. Doesn't help there's no way for men to group up that isn't a grif, homosexual, or fed run/infiltrated for men to actually acquire skillsets or any semblance of discipline or networking for a stable future. It's just a symptom of modernity unfortunately.

The people who paint minis, buy anime figs, build gunpla and play tabletop games are the ones worshipping niggers grabbing eachothers asses over a ball on tv while simutaneously collecting memorabilia of said nigers and the teams they repesent.
