Have you ever made an explicit list of conversations to have with a future spouse?
Hi Stef. I have a question. Philosophy has been a huge part of my life for a good few years now and has helped me.figure.out so much. However I find myself trying to push it onto my wife which is terrible of me. I don't want to be like that but find that my childhood traumas get triggered and suddenly I'm being pushy. I have asked her to read RTR and other books you have but she does struggle to engage probably because I am too pushy. How do I stop this pattern of behaviour?
Hey Stef, I don't want my future family to suffer under a totalitarian regime. I'm from central Europe and my current plan is to move out of the west, particularly into a south-american country with a right leaning government (like Uruguay), and to start my family there. I will either have to meet my future wife in Europe, and convince her to move to south america with me (which will probably be difficult), or just marry a woman from Latin america. Do you think this is a good idea?
Speaking of personalities, what do you think of MBTI - Myers Briggs personality type index? The gist of it is that everyone has a combination of cognitive functions that guide them toward making certain decisions in life. Any truth to this?
I grew up obese… and was nicknamed accordingly by my peers.
In the last few years, I have got in shape and lost about 80lbs of fat. From 255 to 180lbs at 6’ tall.
NONE of my peers recognize me now.
I have also created a six figure self employed business. (Blue Collar)
Now that I’m actually attractive to women,
I want to be wanted for me!
~Not a house,money, or muscles.
It’s kind of depressing that I became attractive , only after going through hell….
Hi Stef! My dad did very well in business and convinced me to sell most of my crypto when it had eclipsed 1k/btc. He made a joke years later that he had sold all his real estate to purchase Bitcoin when the price of btc was nearly 50k, implying it would be a speculative investment. He hasn’t acknowledged that he gave me the poor investment advice, even after it had 50x its price, but I haven’t called him out about it. Is that why I have regret to this day about selling or is it simply the price?
What's a good to differentiate between the value for value model and transactional relationships ?

You Get What You NEGOTIATE! Listener Questions
Philosopher Stefan Molyneux examines civic participation and the impact of welfare systems on society. He critiques the reliance on government aid, arguing it fosters dependency and hinders personal initiative. He analyzes capitalism's complexities, emphasizing that success is influenced by market dynamics rather than just hard work. The importance of thoughtful dialogue in a polarized environment is also highlighted. Ultimately, he calls for a reevaluation of personal and collective responsibilities to create a more informed society.
Questions submitted:
"With Western society resembling that of an insane asylum, how does one stay motivated to participate? Do you ever have the desire to leave and live on an island beach?"
"If most of your life was a psychological operation, how would you logically assess the moral and strategic response once it all unravels?"
"When is it right to speak about an issue"
"How does the phenomenon of 'working yourself out of a job' fit into a logical capitalist system? A logical ...

Stef, I genuinely appreciate your work and have learned a great deal from you over the years. But I have to push back on one recurring point: your criticism of Christianity based on the behavior of a subset of American Christians. When you say “Christians do X” without specifying which Christians, you end up implying that the entire global Christian world shares the same practices and moral failures. That simply isn’t true.
I grew up Catholic, with deep exposure to Christian communities in Croatia, Germany, and Switzerland. And I can tell you with absolute certainty: no one in these cultures defends hitting children, let alone beating them with belts. It’s not taught, not accepted, not normalized. These are some of the most loving, warm, and family-oriented Christian communities you’ll ever meet. What certain Americans do with their religion—often twisting it into something authoritarian or fanatical—has nothing to do with the Christianity lived by millions of believers ...
