Looking Rich

“Looking Rich” is not just a change in clothes but a change in thought and behaviour.



Being Rich isn’t where the penny ends. By having a nice car, watch and house doesn’t mean you are a successful individual. You very well could be one of those individuals who have inherited all their wealth. There is no crime in that, but in truth the thrill is in the chase. The journey from A to B is what people should be striving for. Not just the end result. The Essence and wonder of the experience weighs more then the trophy that awaits.

However emulating that your successful has its perks and can be very advantageous to one in the sense that :

-People will pay more attention to you

-The opposite sex will find you more attractive.

-People perceived value of you would be higher

So the question is … “How can I look Rich & what are the benefits in looking Rich”

In this blog post we at COL will look three areas in which if one applies some resources and human effort. They will see changes within their lives and new windows of unseen opportunities will arise.

Clothes

Dressing good is important. Forget this trendy, indy cindy, hoxton hero skinny jean + t shirt look. Styles like that totally de-masculinize men and ultimately will fuck James Bond first then Russel Brand. Not because he has an Aston and doesn’t resemble an old lady from a mental home but purely on the basis that naturally women will bend over backwards for a masculine man more then an indy cindy. Soooo you might as well start dressing like one because it is like packing a turbo under your hood.



"Girls can get away with silly shirts saying stupid stuff on them. Blindly Men think the same shirts make them more hot but in truth they look like rejects from TOP SHOP"

Anyway you primarily want to make an impression, which stands strong, noble, solid and respectable. Wearing a t shirt saying “Nintendo” or “ New Wave” states one thing to individuals around …“NO GF”. Do you really want to advertise that … LOL. So keep the silly t-shirts for nightwear. Trying to lose your virginity wearing a halo shirt is going to be hard ...

Clothes that encapsulate

“prestigious values” & “heritage”

are key. This is because the impression given by them orientate around being strong, noble, solid and respectable. Thus people will perceive, that the individual wearing the clothes is seemed to have a character / personality similar to attributes explained before.

Looks which demonstrate this point

-Preppy Look





The look basically says:

"I got money so Mc Donald's is not on my list, my dad drives golf gti on weekends but drops me off to school in his company car. I only do house party's and chill in hotel lounges and I have plenty of non preppy and preppy girls chasing me"

-British Look



This look is rather more straight forward:

" I don't know what a night club is, I prefer driving my Range on my farm and the odd bit of fox hunting now and then and I only marry into relatives or friends of friends."

-Preppy Tennis Look

All these looks pulsate a “high value” appeal to other individuals. Therefore adoption of these looks will be beneficial to you if you were in a crowd of people. You will look conservative but vibrant amongst the wall of people and their boring suits. Just imagine dressed as Roger Federer at a bus stop with everyone wearing black and grey suits … you will definitely be One- Up on everyone.

Benefits of Dressing Good

-Ever lasting look

-Women will definitely look more

-Attracts a lot more haters

-Friends may diss you for changing your style … they can join the haters as well.

Disadvantages

-Everyone will think your posh and this not always needed. Especially when dealing with hippy/ liberal bitches. They tend to hold a grudge against wealthy/ successful people and often you may find yourself in debates and arguments with them on the price of bread.

The Car

A Car one drives divulges many things about the driver. A Ferrari depicts that the diver is Rich, Loaded, Flashy and knows people. As the waiting list for one is longer then the great wall of China. Just like the realm of clothes heritage is important. So really … what car correlates with the heritage look … an Aston Martin !



Unfortunately not all our fathers were transport tycoons or rich oil barons. But selecting a car brand which encapsulates heritage, prestige and luxury and at the same is affordable is not easy. Hence going vintage may be the only way to have the appeal of wealth. As dizzy rascal said it “OLD SKOOL LIKE HAPPY SHOPPER” is cool. Hence the brand needs to appeal to impress ladies, clients and ANYONE ELSE. Driving a car such as Porsche 911 from “1969” is no way different to some clown driving an 09 plate.



The car perceived image is timeless. The only major different is the sticker price & mileage. One 1969 car has travelled more miles then the space shuttle discovery and the 09 can accelerate like it.


YOUR BRAIN !

The external adjustment is one half of the battle. The next step is to become more mentally rich. Change your norms. A good example of this is one I personally engaged with. I heavily noticed that all individuals who came from a private education background either had a sport which they took seriously or a had an instrument they took seriously and over the summer I personally became drawn into the world of tennis & classical music. To such a degree that I usually write all my blog posts listening some form of classical either post or contemporary. Hence expanding and experiencing new things will always lead to opportunities that were previously not see able.

Above all act yourself. Most rich people are boring unless your Hugh Hefner. If your not a boring person and part take in various other social activities and lead an active lifestyle then see that as a major benefit. And playing video games and jerking off to porn is not an active lifestyle. Furthermore don’t advertise yourself. Keep a low image. Let people’s minds wonder not yours and retain a degree of normality. By speaking properly, dressing accordingly etc … but don’t over do it over the top. And to conclude, If someone asks you where you live … don’t say Mayfair.

Fan Boys Priorities (One-Up)

Liam Farrel REPORTS for COL :



Nerd, geek, dweeb, anorak, saddo...if any of these labels have ever been aimed at you then read on. You're exactly who this article was written for. Fist and foremost, those labels used to pigeon hole you and put you down. Forget them, expell them from your vocabulary. You do not need labels invented by people who want to hold you down and see you fail. This site is improving one's self, and that's your first step. Secondly, there's nothing wrong with being a fanboy (a term I use professionally and personally), I'm one myself;
I work as a videogame journalist, into more different TV shows, comic, animated shows and films than you can shake a lightsabre at and the only thing that outnumbers my collection of games is action figures! So understand what I say comes from a good place and is said by someone that understands you and your situation. A fanboy may very well be who you are. But that doesn't mean it has to be what you are.



To explain my point, let me tell you a little but about one (of many) of my interests. I like The Transformers, the original cartoon series, I like it a lot. When I have nothing to do I trawl internet sites looking for the original toys from the 80's, own three different Starscreams and would slap you silly if you got in the way of me getting a masterpiece Grimlock! So, as you can see, I really like Transformers. But it doesn't own me, my life doesn't depend on owning them, there's much more to my life. My hobbies and passions are just a part of it.



before you start jumping to conclusions, I'm not going to tell you to flog your comics and signed William Shatner photo on ebay for the sake of a girl (or getting a girl). What I'm advocating is indentifying your priorities, putting them in order of importance and keeping them separate. Have your personal loves and interests, but keep them personal (more on this in a bit)
I'm going to divulge a little fact about women, you may think I'm full of it or sexist, but you'll see it's more or less true. When you first meet a woman, she doesn't care about your life story. Within minutes (if not seconds) she's made her mind up if you are someone she'd sleep with, go out with you, be friends with you or pretend in five minutes that her mum had a bad turn and she has to leave. First impressions count with women, and waxing lyrical about why Star Trek DS9 is better than next generation isn't gonna do much for your love life.



"Smooth and Sharp at all times with a hint of cockyness is the perfect recipe to attract women"


Look at it like this; you, your personality and how you present yourself is like a product. And the woman is the perspective customer. Every shop has a target customer, the person they want buying their product. So they need to best present their product and shop to attract that desired customer so hopefully they'll buy something. So you're gonna want to put the best products, in the best possible way to get that customer's interest. Stuff she would want or be interested in. You don't stick back room stock or paperwork in the front window. They're part of what makes the shop run, but are of no interest to the customer. You'd be surprised at the difference a few little changes can make...



Smarten yourself up: That Red Dwarf t-shirt may be the shit at a fan convention but it says "nobody" to a potential girlfriend. Get some nice plain t-shirt (at the very least) and dress shirts.


Clean your place up: Piles of DVDs or comics are a big risk of alienating a girl (and you don't wanna screw things up if you get her to your place). So get some shelves or cabinets made up to keep your stuff in (or at least tastefully display it). Even if you live at home with yo mother you can still have a hot gf ... unless if your parents are strict muslims ... then I suggest a motel !



Believe: People may have tried to make you feel bad, don't let them. Don't even give them the pleasure of letting them think they upset you. Likewise with girls, if they give you the elbow. Don't take it to heart. Girls get attention from guys all the time, so you not getting her heart is no different to what we've all gone through. Get some dreams and follow them. Don't worry about "the making money part". That will soon come if you do what you love with the added effort !



I can't do it all for you, you have to take the initiative yourself, but take on some of what I've written. At no point did I say stop being a fanboy, by all means enjoy your hobbies but bare in mind there's a whole life outside your interests, so go out there and live it because you will enjoy if you take that step and swallow the pill out of your self made prison. So the next time someone is going to a party and you have the choice of either surfing the net, reading a comic ... leave your house and join who ever. Because in the future you will use your office 3 things :D !

1) One to Sleep in

2) Two to Break Deals in

3) To Sleep with and Break Women in ! The Janitor can hold the camera LOL!
