From Simping To Stocking: How To Make Your Money Work For You To Build Wealth
Stop wasting your money on OnlyFans subscriptions and dates.
Your money is precious. Money represents your time and energy.
You may find yourself spending your money on quick dopamine hits rather than investing in your future. You may have spent money on dates with someone you were interested in. Or you may have spent money on an OnlyFans creator for a fantasy "girlfriend" or "boyfriend" experience.
When I was in my twenties, I wasted money on speed dating, dates, and exploring the world of camming, which was just getting started. I was definitely a simp. I overcame that by working on myself, learning better habits, and learning about the stock market.I was not familiar with the stock market or investing at that time.
Here's how you can go from simping to stocking so your money can work for you to build wealth.
The High Cost Of Chasing Validation
"Simping" is just modern slang for the costly habit: spending excessive resources to gain the favor or attention of someone who is not invested in your well-being. It's a one-sided transaction. It's a one-sided transaction. Simping most clearly manifests in two areas: digital subscriptions and the dating scene.
Adult Subscriptions
There are many adult platforms now for adult content creators, but the most well-known is OnlyFans.
Your transactions are direct. You pay a minimum of $15 monthly for a subscription. If you regularly "tip" for a custom message or message daily, you're now spending hundreds of dollars a month. You then buy access to photos and videos that will later be paywalled again.
Over a year, a $15 a month subscription is $180. Combined with tips, buying photos and videos, and private messages, you're easily spending hundreds to thousands of dollars every year. You receive temporary entertainment that feeds a bad habit.
OnlyFans Creators Build Wealth
The adult content creator receives permanent capital. They can save. They can invest in the stock market. They can pay their own bills. You're directly financing their financial ascent while stalling your own for temporary pleasure.
Dating Pressure
You have expectations to pay for dates. The costs of dates quickly drain your income and wealth. You pay for casual coffee dates, expensive cocktail dates, and costly dates at trendy restaurants. You pay for tickets to attend events with someone you'll likely never see again.
Dating Costs
The average cost of a date today is $100. That breaks down to $50 each. That's for a typical date.
A more expensive date will cost you $200 or more. If you do that two to three times a month, you're paying $600 or more each month.
You're spending $7,200 a year just on dates! That's crazy.
You're attracting people for the wrong reasons. You're leading with your bank account. You're lack of confidence leads you to seek external validation from a significant other.
The money you spend on external validation is capital you could spend to improve your self-confidence and grow your net worth. You're spending your money that could be used to establish your financial security rather than paying for a date's attention.
AI Replacing Physical Relationships
You no longer need a significant other. AI can replace girlfriends and boyfriends.
Now it seems that AI will replace camgirls as the technology gets better. After all, an AI doll or AI bot will never argue with you.
Do you want a child? In vitro fertilization, also known as IVF, is an option for individuals who are busy. IVF raises interesting questions of what is “family” and what is a “child.” These are questions that artificial wombs are creating. How about having a relationship with AI? This is the direction that society is moving towards.
Key Point: Spending your money on external validation hinders your ability to build a solid foundation of wealth.
Strategic Redirection: The Simp-To-Stock Pipeline
Conduct a thorough financial audit of all your spending. Review your monthly credit card and debit card purchases. You must be honest with yourself about your bad spending habits. Identify how seeking external validation leads to spending money.
Focus on building your brokerage account and increasing your net worth rather than spending it on data and OnlyFans subscriptions.
Start A Budget
Start by tracking every cent you spend on subscriptions. Know how much you pay for going out, happy hour, and necessities.
Calculate the total amount you spend every month. Your total amount will shock you. Cancel all unnecessary subscriptions. Stop sending unnecessary tips to strangers. Stop buying gifts for people who will forget about you once you stop messaging them.
Simp-To-Stock Pipeline
Now start investing a percent of your income every month into the stock market. Automate monthly transfers to your brokerage account.
You're now building your simp-to-stock pipeline. If you were spending $300 a month on OnlyFans, you can now invest that $300 more productively. You're replacing a costly bad habit with a healthy wealth-building habit.
You're money is now able to work for you in the stock market.
Key Point: Automatically redirect your bad habitual spending into automatic investing to transform a cost into an asset.

Value Stocks
Value investing is the art of identifying high-quality companies that are undervalued by the market and exhibit potential for significant upside.
Value investing takes time to research and review a company's financials and fundamentals. You can then determine if the current stock price is trading below the company's fair value on the stock market.
These are often well-established companies in industries that are out of favor or companies with strong fundamentals that are not well-known.. Buying value stocks is like finding a perfectly good, brand-name product on the clearance rack. Your investment portfolio will increase dramatically once the market corrects its oversight and the price of the stock rises.
Key Point: Value stocks allow you to buy dollar bills for fifty cents, capitalizing on the market's short-term mood swings.
Growth Stocks
Growth investing focuses on fast-growing companies. These companies promise you, as an investor, the potential for exponential growth. Growth stocks are in innovative sectors such as technology, AI, semiconductors, and biotechnology.
Growth companies' first priority is reinvesting profits back into the business. Reinvesting profits accelerates a company's growth. This is beneficial for growth investors. You'll be able to achieve a higher return on your investment if your research on a growth company is successful.
Growth stocks are more volatile. The price can fluctuate from day to day. Growth stocks are not for you if you don't want to see your portfolio's value rise, then dramatically fall the next day.
While growth stocks are highly volatile, they offer you the highest potential reward over the long term for your investment. You just have to be patient. You may have to wait a few years, or even longer, for your investment in a company to yield a successful return.
Key Point: Growth stocks offer high upside potential by investing in innovative companies that will shape the future.
