What kind of people actively hang out at BuSo? (PRE COVID)

[MrSanti]

sorry guys, couldn't help myself :-D

I feel the same XDD

This is a bit of a trolling thread right? Because If not I'm a bit stunned haha

 

[eliquid]

Now there are exceptions of course, like myself. I was luckily introduced to the world of IM because I didn't want to run Google Ads while starting my first company during my undergraduate and was forced to intern at a start-up (required by my university) where I was luckily given an SEO-related role.

Hmm, that's not what you told us in your intro thread...

You actually said you picked SEO because you were trying to "out do" and out man your friend. Just gotta get that one up, don't you?

What a way to make a choice in life. The more I learn about people like yourself, the more I can confirm the largest issue in young people's lives today is they do not know how to make a decision properly.

See below, from your intro thread:

Since he was someone whom I competed within every facet of life such as closing girls, lifting weights, and scoring hoops, I had a desire to beat him in SEO, which is a major reason why I chose SEO over Google Ads. (Looking back, utilizing Google Ads then pivoting into SEO would've resulted in faster growth)

Nothing about some internship.

So we see you make bad choices based not on any logic at all, but emotion. But then you come here trying to tell us all how to do things and why things happen the way they do and get butt hurt when we point out why you are wrong.

Rich.. real rich.

So then you ran this business on bad choices and learned business was hard. It was too much for you, almost broke you... so you sold out and went to Asia for 6 months. This is why YOU THINK balance is needed, because you fucked up.

And you come here to push it on us...

But FUCK, running a tangible based company is a shithole, especially if it's in a service industry with equipment being used often. I accounted for the deterioration of our tools which occurred within a matter of days for some, spent extensive time in the hiring/firing process, expended WAY too much time managing people (10 people who were all scattered around), dealt with customers who complained n often took a loss to maintain the integrity of the brand, and eventually found myself in a constant state of stress.

So because you did things wrong and got stressed, you think your way of doing things is the only way. That we all need this balance.

No.

Only people that fuck up need that.

Then, you wasted all your money pretty much. I can read between the lines... see below:

So. I sold that bitch, then traveled 6 months in Asia and blew my money for good reasons.
There's no way I was going to travel and restrict myself to a budget after spending a year in chronic stress and I found a girl while traveling who I want to marry: Singapore -> Malaysia -> Bali -> Korea.

You thought you "deserved" something, so you blew your nut in Asia. "Oh I just gotta reward myself because I spent a year doing hard work..." instead of being smart and working. That "balance" shit.

It got so bad, you had to come back home because, well you were basically broke now and living with your parents at 28.... That "balance" shit sure is working out for ya.. isn't it?

Once my bank account cued, "Keep up this spending habit and you'll be a broke mothafucka", I came back to the States where I'm with my parents at 28.

and now you want to purchase blackhat PBN links for a legit law firm, which will basically tank their site in 12-24 months. Wow great employee you are... They are lucky to have you.

You're basically gonna cause them major loss and more than likely cut yourself out of a job there when you fuck up their site. Which isn't smart. But you will get your balance when you go back home to mom and dad and go "meet new people".

But you don't care, because you don't know. You don't know because you have no experience. You won't gain experience because you wont admit when you're wrong.

I hustled the first 2 weeks and I landed a job with a law firm as an SEO Specialist.
My boss said, "this isn't like your mechanical bull rental" lead generation website, this is law and lawyers are cutthroat when it comes to marketing, you sure you can do this? To which, I said yes.

I researched my competition to find they're using blackhat SEO by leveraging the power of PBNS/ guest-post link building/ and weak links with their keyword as anchor texts. I think I'll have to do the same, especially if I'm to compete with them and expect to rank within a month or two.

So. I'm here to adventure into the world of PBN Hopefully with some veterans.

So please...

Please

Don't try to school me or anyone else on this forum about anything else we tell you.

• Some of us have mortgage payments.
• Some of us have stacks on deck.
• Some of us work with large brands that spend millions a month each in IM
• Some of us have payroll and families to protect.
• Some of us have paid our dues over and over again.
• Some of us have been there and done that and literally created the pathway for people like you to even come up in this industry.
• Some of us were wrong before and didn't want to admit it, just like you, and learned from that lesson.
• Some of us see the major flaws and are trying to help you, even though it looks like bashing
• Some of us don't give up when things are hard and play around for 6 months
• Some of us don't have mommy and daddy to run back to
• Some of us have been around the block before you showed up.
• Some of us have real multiple cash flows, not "passive income" websites

eat culvers twice a week or more.

We have one of these in town and whenever I'm in the sad line a Bojangles I look over to the left and the Culver's line is wrapped around the building twice and people parked waiting on food to come out. Is it really that good? I looked at the menu online. Looks like another typical Burger King / Long John Silvers / Steak & Shake hybrid. Their food photos don't even look particularly extra appealing (they look realistic though, which I appreciate). What's the deal with Culvers!?! I'm going to have to go try it, aren't I? I'm assuming it's like explaining the color of the sunset to a blind man. It must be transcendental.

 

[CashCowAdv]

That’s why your never defeat me @CashCowAdv, I compete on a different continuum.

I can already tell I have a sharper mind. It won't be long till I win. DW you'll have competition soon.

 

[mrodriguez27]

Bruh I just now you guys are literally throwing away time trying to convince the other you're right when in truth, it doesn't even matter. Get grinding

You don't know half the story. I had 3 business's running simultaneously. The $300-500k barely hit the surface.

And the fact that you went through my old history tells me I'm doing something right.

"You will never be criticized by someone who is doing more than you. You will only be criticized by someone doing less."

Currently make $4-7k passively and I freelance for a couple of law firms. Watch this number boom by next year.

I might even teach you a thing or two.

Bruh I just now you guys are literally throwing away time trying to convince the other you're right when in truth, it doesn't even matter. Get grinding

This is true. It was fun and I saw it as an opportunity to sharpen my skill in logical persuasion.

But seeing that I'm debating w/ people who ramble off-topic and takes things out of context, it's slowly becoming less of a cognitive enhancer and .. it's time to fuckin hustle.

[Timmy22]

It's funny that @CashCowAdv promptly exposes himself as a newbie and "manosphere" idiot and it's like the bat signal for involuntary celibates to rush to the thread, and of course @CCarter the pimply LARPer virgin answers the call like his life depended on it.

You are describing each other perfectly while pretending the insults don't stick to you. @eliquid has the crown and can argue on the internet because he has the luxury of being a massive success. @Satvrn is a real one too. The other two of you are legitimately retards and pretenders and name droppers and coat-tail riders.

 

[CCarter]

Finally got some action in this. A grown man calling himself "Timmy" - The jokes are pretty much going to write themselves.

Hold on I have to catch up, Timmy, you seem to know acronyms I'm un-aware of - LARP, LARP = "Live Action Role Player". Sounds like some video games shit.

"manosphere" - Wow - you guys need to get off the internet.

"involuntary celibates" - that's a weird phrase - "Incel" - WHAT. THE. FUCK. What in god's name is wrong with you people?

Surprise, surprise - Introducing "Timmy": A grown man who playing video games. Uses video game and 4chan references like it's actually normal. The jokes do write themselves.

Now I had to look up WSB, Wall Street Bets - Why would I be on reddit all day? What is wrong with you "men" - or rather "boys".

If you guys can't see how fucked this society is just look at Timmy - the Redditor/4chan/Video Game generation.

If you guys are on Reddit all day, Twitter all day, 4chan, or play video games all day - just as men that should have some self-respect, you might want to stop doing those activities. Fuck.

I wake up overlooking the ocean every morning, how the fuck do you guys wake up?

You guys know and use references and acronyms that you as grown men should be embarrassed to even know.

If you ever find yourself in conversations uses those above phrases you might want to re-think your path in life. Like - WOW.

Fuck.

My cat's name is Timmy

Requesting a username change.

 

[bernard]

Timmeh!

 

[CCarter]

Requesting a username change.

Alright, that was fucking funny.

Some of this shit I just read because of Timmy, I'm just embarrassed for men and society. What are you people doing with your lives where you have conversations about "incel" and think that's normal?

I need to take a shower after deep diving into this crap.

 

[Timmy22]

In this hotel, I overlook fuckers sailing on the weekends.

I wake up overlooking the ocean every morning

^ This is what I'm talking about. We're at Defcon 5 for insecurity levels from the exact two coping brainlets you'd expect it from. "I wake up next to the ocean, I swear I do!"

Writing entire fantasy short stories about a username and an acronym. I'm surprised it didn't come along with more fantasy shit, like an animated gif, a Dan Peña quote, and an @ to Satvrn lmao.

 

[CCarter]

Defcon 5

Defcon 5 is the lowest level, Defcon 1 is highest. I'm surprised you didn't know that.

At the end of the day you are a grown man that uses video game and 4chan references. I'm embarrassed for you.

 

[DanielS]

Lots of bragging is happening in this thread- but little proof of claims being made.

[secretagentdad]

O man. I think I’m gonna come back and take a gigantic Steaming memey shit in this thread after I finish my buffalo chicken tendies from culvers. - The best fast food in the entire universe.

For those of you from Commyfornia.

CULVERS IS BETTER THAN IN AND OUT


Won't shit on bojangles though. That shits fire. Try to grab it every time I drive through the south.
It can't keep up with the culvers though.

 

[Syrinj]

This should be the new STDDIOT thread going forward.

 

[bernard]

I'm still not really sure what this thread is about.

In any case, it made me sentimentally ruminate on when I was 28 and incidentally also just back from South East Asia, Thai boxing (not MMA) and partying. Good times. Seems foggy and distant now.

OP, I recommend God, to let go of your ego. It will do you well.

The fact that you're in the 'water cooler' section of this thread and have less than 10 written messages means you either wander around BuSo looking for some golden nugget and visit this thread because your tiny brain can't absorb more than a productive thread per day or you've been here from the start and it took you a whole day to come up with an answer you perceive is thoughtful.

And the fault is yours if you can't afford such as life, can't comprehend our lifestyle, and have to claim BULLSHIT. All you're screaming is BULLSHIT to yourself.

And your username selection shows a lot about your creativity, Timmy22. Or did you just misspell, him he 22 cause all you think about is men.

Lol wtf? Am I in the Twilight Zone right now? Is this elementary school? Am I on BuSo?

Yup.

This reminds me of addicts and alcoholics who repeatedly relapse and then walk back into recovery programs and try to tell the people who have been sober and fulfilled 20+ years that it doesn't work and "you need to do it this way." Sure, bud, you know best.

Some people take financial advice from broke people, parenting advice from people without kids, combat advice from people who have no fight experience, sales advice from people who work 9-5s, etc. That same exact person will then reject appropriate sources of wisdom and think they know better than them. It's delusion at its finest and it's widespread.

Humility goes a looooong way in forming thriving relationships. Arrogance is applicable to some situations, but only hurts in this one.

That's why you have to leave your ego at the door.

Spiritual experiences are important because they teach you non duality, ie you are part of everything, and everything is infinite therefore it is both everything and nothing at the same time. Therefore you are nothing. To have an ego is to be separate, which is an illusion, why would you separate yourself from everything? How can you learn, progress, with an ego that's stopping you from integrating?

I've been corrected here already. Did I reply with "i know best?" no because I left my ego at the door. I don't necessarily agree with the correction, but I'm always open to suggestions too.

Ego is the worst thing about affiliate marketing, and marketing in general really; people with big egos competing with each other but instead of competing via numbers they compete with laughable boasts. I remember some guy on STM who claimed to be a hyperaffiliate boasting about crashing his Aventador and just buying a new one same day rather than get it fixed or insured. The same guy was going on about some product "only he" sold, and sold tons of...I deduced this to be Acia after some while, which everyone at the time was making big bucks off... A4D made around $400MM off it, and got sued by the FDA too. So it wasn't just this guy at all. Imagine lying just for internet rep points LOL

I don't wanna be around those kind of people even if what he said is true. Those kinda people don't value friendships or other humans because they are egotists; narcissists basically. What I like most about the affiliate game, if you're willing to not bother with the "must be #1" shit, is you can do it on your own, as your own boss, make enough cash to have "fuck you money" and no one except your ad rep and traffic reps needs to even know who you are. And you can find other people to hang with who share the same sentiment.

Threads like this one just reminded me of the eugh part of the game.

 

[harrytwatter]

I'm confused, is hanging out on BoSu not a good thing?

Wasn't that a fat guy with a Corvette on Wickedfire tho?
