Not buying that at all because you sure do bring up my financial situation quite often to not care about it. There have been at least 3 recent posts of yours mentioning my financial situation and how I should be somehow worried about not losing it all. Again, that is 100% projected fear because such fear I do not have.
I only brought up financial worries once, because of Covid. And it was a generic worry, not about my finances or yours.

Have you ever been to the former Soviet Union? I actually lived and worked in the region from 2006 to 2017. And since 2017, I go back and spend months out of the year living there. So everything you wish to be the case for me as a black expat there, and everything you "heard" from some idiot who would not know is not true.
Even PAG showed ample proof that he has at least SOME success with women in Ukraine and I can tell you, the women in those photos, I would not be interested in in the least. But go ahead and believe what you want if that soothes your feelings and makes your ego feel less bruised.
I would add that if your primary attraction to girls is your skin color, there is no wonder you are having so much disbelief about what I talk about on this forum. That means you are an overall low-value man, skin color notwithstanding.
All of a sudden PAG, whom you criticises as a charlatan, has legit dating success. So typical of "fake till you make it' guys like you and him, to inflate their own alleged successes while belittling others', and then reverse when convenient. Well, nothing we haven't seen already...
What I reported on blacks in Eastern Europe are not my speculation, they are legit opinions from Ukrainian and Russian people I know. People who are far more credible than you ever will.

I find it most odd that if I am so annoying to you, why do you keep obsessively reading my posts and spending so much time crafting responses on such an ongoing basis? Also, if I am relaying my personal experiences here and imploring others to try to benefit from the same strategies, it should not be triggering you the way it does. In fact, that you term it "bragging" means that it is causing you ego-harm of some sort. Again, you are more than welcome to simply stop reading my posts if they hurt your feelings that much.
You answered your own question. You are "imploring others" to benefit from "strategies" based on your fantasy stories. What you call "personal experiences" are just unverified stories that, as it appears more likely at every new post from you, lack any credibility.
If I suddenly started to blog about how a particular Bitcoin trading strategy could make me "a million dollar a month" and I used "my own experience" as a proof, the average Joe's reaction would be "show me your trading account", or "show me your bank account".
We may well ask you to provide proof. At least PAG had the grace of showing some random pics of him with some girls whose party he randomly gatecrashed, or he paid to get naked in front of him. Doesn't prove much but it's at least something.
But, you know, this is an anonymous forum so it's your right not to provide evidence. Then at least allow us to be skeptical. You haven't noticed yet that there is not a single member on this forum who believes your stories, your "strategies"?
Like I said, the part that "triggers" me the most is that you mock other people if they refuse to believe you, which is not just their right as active parties in a debate, it's also an obvious, natural reaction as they hear tall tales with so many things that don't add up.
If you want a truce, then please at least open yourself up that your "strategies" may as well work, yet some people prefer other life choices, like dating normal girls who have feelings for them, or even marry one. And this doesn't make them wrong or losers.

All the more reason for you to just ignore my posts. But something keeps you coming back to read everything that I write and you and I both know you will always be reading them. If you really thought they were "made-up" stories that you can't stomach, you would not come back to read them again and again. Nice try though.....
It gets harder to ignore you, as you write one in three posts, and most of them are links to YT videos or blogs of people who support your ideas, your lifestyle choices. I am not reading any of your stories. I only started to watch one of your posted videos, don't even remember which one. I am simply reacting to posts where you call me names, which are quite a few.
In case it's not clear yet, I am not interested at all in your "success stories", nor is any HA member here who has already called them BS and may still read them for pure entertainment.

This is what confirms that you are dealing with some sort of severe, low self-esteem issue. When I have some measure of good fortune or success, I want others to enjoy it too if they can. However, you become so offended at others' successes that it hits you like an attack or an insult. Such reactions are often telltale signs of Narcissistic Personality Disorder and other disorders of the Cluster B variety.
I implore you to seek professional assistance to work through all that because remaining embittered and resentful will not make for a happy life as the years goes on.
Go work on yourself and, if you end up successful, you'll see that everything I talk about is extremely plausible. If not, you'll continue to see them as tall tales which is 100% fine with me.
Let's put it this way. If you came in talking about your good fortune or success, perhaps reporting on this or that country and your exotic social encounters, I would be happy for you and patting your back. The way you came across, at least since I joined this forum, is as this brash, arrogant middle-aged dude who has plenty of larger-than-life stories and criticises or attacks anyone who doesn't believe or embrace them.
These are 2 quite different behaviours. One is believable, civilised and leads to sympathy, or empathy. The other is just an attempt to seek validation for a lifestyle that you probably never had, or never will. Wanting us to be part of your mind game. Which might be OK, if you didn't have to resort to pathetic personal attacks.
I am already working on myself, thanks. I think I won't end up the CEO of a multinational or a 4-star Michelin chef any time soon, but I will have been working hard and honest with myself and the others, and that is where I get my confidence, happiness even, from.
Being a legend in your own mind and living the dream which is, well, just a dream, perhaps you'll never be able to grasp this.
