I am 43 and one of the best things I've done is I stopped dating. Can't find any reasons to date. Got my house, got my toys, I don't make 6 figures, I'm not 6 ft tall, I don't drink go to bars or socialize with women, I basically don't care what women want or what they do and I'm quite happy.

If a woman is not cooperative let it go, you play games in your teens. Only broke men chase women

Dating in your 40s is like shopping in a thrift store.

If it floats, fucks or flys, its cheaper to rent it...

If you have the 6x6 why would you date a woman in her 40s 🤷‍♂️

The Six /6s from those women is why MGTOW is growing , how sad and shallow of todays women . If i do the right thing i would hope my daughter when she grows would have a different Six /6s like # 1/ Man with Character 2/ Man with health 3/ Man with courage 4/ Man with empathy 5/ Man with intelligence 6 / Man with Purpose .

Great video! Best tip... you are not here or responsible to save or fix anyone. I'm in my 40's with my $hit together... Keep your options open, always. Do not ever settle. You control who you invite into your world/frame not the other way around. Learn to value your own time, your choices and continue to improve yourself... Know your value and your deal breakers, and never compromise them. You teach those on how to treat and respect you based on what you allow. Trust yourself and be strong enough to walk. The life I have made for myself and my children are my #1 priority. I am an example for them, especially my son and how I can best prepare him to be a man. This is sacred and should be for any father. Most of all, own your $hit and your choices boys no matter what age. 🍻

Best advice regardless of age: Don't get married.

3 types of women to avoid 1. Feminists 2. Gold Diggers 3. Single moms All train wrecks

47 year old happily married woman here (first/only marriage for us both, no kids by others) and think your videos are great and spot on. Keep up the good work.

I just turned 40. i can attest to the fact that even though I couldn't understand why when i was in my 20s i couldn't get the 20 year olds, and now, i get more 20 year olds than anything. That being said, at 40, my priorities are completely different than 20 years ago. although i still have a very healthy sexual appetite, i tend to favor women that i enjoy during the day as much as i can at night. I'm no longer married and believe that if everyone agrees to monogomy, then honor that, or else dont agree to it. I set no illusions with my women and make it clear that unless I put a ring on your finger, neither you nor i have obligation to each other. if you dont like it, there's the door, and please hand me my little black book on your way out. the beta male i was in my 20s would've believed that this approach would ruin my dating life as no one would want me for being so honest. turns out, too many women dont care about honesty as much as they put on. They just want to be told what they wanna hear long enough so they can justify to themselves why to open their legs. since it doesn't matter to them, i just need to be honest for my own self respect. then maybe i'll attact, instead, a woman that appreciates that type of man. until then, i'll enjoy my 20-somethings, and my 30-somethings, and my 40-somethings that are ok with not falling madly in love for a few months till it crashes and burns. but the respect i hold for myself, knowing that i do not let women take advantage of me anymore, that is priceless. i have no intention of ever settling down again, at least not until my daughter is stable and self-sufficient. She deserves my energy much more than some woman i barely know that means nothing to me . men of all ages, especially in your 40s, learn to say no. you earn respect for yourselves knowing your value and being steadfast in your defense of that boundary. you are no more her plumber than she is your paid s*x worker, unless of course you want that type of relationship, the kind we all have found ourselves in at a point. Thanks for the video and for the room to rant

Less than 20 % of U.S. men are 6 ft or taller. Chances are they don't want a 40 yr old with 2 kids.

Less than 5% of single women in their 40's are dateable. Of those, maybe about 5% of those are going to be interested in you. Once you accept this reality that you will need to date 400 women before you find a reasonable match, you can then make an educated decision as to whether or not it's worth the effort. And make no mistake, finding a reasonable woman who is interested in you, is a long hard tedious time-consuming task. Most men will not succeed, and will either give up or settle for a low-quality woman.

I've been taking care of my Grandma lately. she is 89 yrs old and is advising me to go MGTOW!! it's hilarious having an experienced and wise woman calling out the bull shit of these refugee women!! lolz

Is Captain Save-A-Ho one of the Avengers?

the sparkle in his eyes, smile on his face and a cheerful joy that radiates from his soul ..... that is status

It's sad that they don't like you for you and want all this bs. They want the kingdom but not to be with you threw the hard time while your building it.

40, cheated on. Lost everyone but my kid. Zero interest from any dating site. Losing my mind from loneliness.

If I could just take a drug to cure me of my congenital snatchaholism, I'd have a Phd from Harvard in 2 years. I'm so sick of being a slave to testosterone. Women have brought me nothing but misery. I remember being out on a dinner date with this early 40s woman one time, when she suddenly glared at the table beside where this expensively-attired woman in her mid 40s/early 50s was dining. My date's eyes burned with envy. Then she fumed, "What a bitch. All that money and I bet all she has to do to get it is blow the dentist." Essentially, she told me without the slightest compunction she'd blow any guy for money. 2 things I've always wanted to know about women: (a) Do they not seek a spiritual connection, a soulmate, or is it all about money? (b) Do they not fear dying alone? After all this time, I genuinely have no clue. Regarding dating down, George Lucas avoided marriage until his late 60s when he found another billionaire. He ain't dumb. And from personal experience, I can attest to the futility of trying to "save" a woman. HUGE MISTAKE.

I am not wealthy...yet I always have cash to spare (I live WELL below my means). I almost never buy clothes outside of consignment stores...yet I am commonly regarded as fashionable. I never buy new cars and repair my own, and save thousands of dollars better employed in securing resources. I drive an eight cylinder magnum rt because it is the one luxury that brings a smile to my face time and again (rat car project in the making). Not caring about the opinion of others affords me confidence in spades. HOWEVER, years ago I discovered that young women are VERY attracted to that...philosophy. Particularly women in their late 20s. I consider that a compliment...yet dangerous...since they are almost always 'sizing me up' as a potential husband/long-term lover and father of their children/meal ticket. BEWARE.

I was a family lawyer for thirty years and I definitely agree that you better make sure her finances are at least as good as yours. I finally got married a few ago. She is worth a few million more than me so if it does not work out at least I walk out of it financially ahead. men are generally idiots when it comes to this.

6 pack abs is the one I think you forgot. No wonder why all the older women online seem so delusional. When you might want kids, that age is casual only yet they demand everything.

No woman knows what 600 horse power is.

best woman for a man: none. but if you must: half your age plus 7 years

Great topic Richard. I'm approaching 40 in a few months. It's hilarious to me that women (not to be disrespectful to women as a gender) who are definitely in the declining years of their sexual market value still think they can get a great looking, tall, successful guy with money and a great life, all while being single mothers with lots of baggage. Talk about wishful thinking.

Thanks for sharing your insights with such clarity. Learned a lot about my behavior, questioned my intentions, started many conversations about my friends and family. Also got my boys the tactical guide to dating so they don't waste their lives with women who are going to use them and their resources and throw them away to date up. Thank you for your insights experiences. I wish you would speak not only to men but to women as well. Sometimes we do what we know because we don't know any different. Thank you for making me aware of the how as a women I come across. Appreciate your straight talk even though at times it makes my skin crawl. Your words encourage me to look at myself and become a better woman.

Your videos is like a bigger brother speaking to me and giving some real advice. Thanks for this channel. It is what I need as I continue to figure out things. Love all I have seen so far.

This video is a month old at this point but I just had to chime in. I ended up dating, and eventually marrying, a single mom who was an ECE with small children. I had two small ones of my own with my ex, so they were all about the same age. For a number of years I was locked into place career-wise and the choices for mates in my area were pretty much all 1) younger hotter but with kids, or 2) older women in the hair-chopping fat-accumulating "I give up on men" phase of life. So my Blue-Pill logic told me to pick the youngest one working the hardest. (Also, unlike most of the others, her children at least had the same father...sheesh) Things were already hard after my first separation, but this made it hell. I regret attempting the blended family situation more than anything in my life. If I had it to do over, quite frankly I would have remained single and just visited an escort once in a while. At least the split after ten years was quiet and amicable, and all the kids are grown up now. The stepkids DO appreciate that someone cared; I still get birthday texts and the odd visit. I was a very Nice Guy and definitely had a crusader mentality. I wasn't tricked into this, I dove in head first. I learned a lot, especially afterwards when I finally found the Red Pill. Don't do it, guys. Your life and freedom has immense value. Be very cautious about dating single moms and definitely keep her kids out of it, because they WILL get attached to you. Breaking up with a woman is no big deal, but walking away from fatherless kids who've formed an attachment to you is just heartless ... and it's not your fault she chose to breed with a heartless man. YOU COME FIRST.

Great video, I am in my late 40s. This video comes handy!

Ah yes, the women to be saved....they do get aggressive. I had one a few years older than me that was so willing to trade sex for anything - very attentive, wanted me to start staying with her a few days out of the week. Turns out she was losing her "stipend" where she was living and needed someone to pick things up...she concealed her lack of employment well, but not well enough. Bzzzt. gone.

Buying a dog is looking good right now!!!!

The reality is this in your 40/50's: how good are you at reading other people, listening to your intuition, keeping your feet on the ground, (managing your emotions) setting boundaries, being totally up front (assertive) about your lifestyle which you intend to maintain and not letting her move in with you, ideally ever, (living separately at this age is very healthy). Also you don't want kids at this age, you certainly don't need the burden of bringing up anyone else's..all the above is linked to emotional intelligence...if you can't manage your emotions, get loved up at the drop of a hat etc, then your likely to become the prey of a predator...

I don't even have sic 6s. I'm more like a four 6s guy and I can tell you that these women will still want you. If you have a job, a place, and a car they can smell that disposable income and they want it for themselves.

Tip number one any girl still unmarried by age thirty is a psychotic person . There is a reason they are alone , wait for it , look for it , you will find the reason. A lady in her late thirty s that is a widow having been married to one man who died is to be considered worthy of a second look. But realistically speaking your not gonna find a perfect mate just like your not perfect.

I'm in my late 40s living off disability due to back injuries. I don't have much money to spare, so while I'm considered better looking than most, I'm alone and probably will be from here on out. I could date fat, single mothers with tattoos and piercings, but I'd rather stay single. These videos are geared towards wealthy guys with money to play with.

There is a difference between dating down and marrying down. Successful men should not marry period. Dating down no problem you dump them before they have access to your resources. Assume all women are hypergamous that way you will protect your assets. In addition by dating down you can get access to younger more attractive women. I speak from experience.

I am a woman and I am a nurse by day and I do a little auto repair on the side and I stumbled across this while looking for dating tips for people in their 40’s, although I’m in my 30’s. I respect all opinions on here so hopefully you respect mines. I know that many women are instinctively attracted to men that are older or considered “high-quality “ because historically that’s the ONLY way women survived. Men were the protectors and providers. I’ve noticed that sometimes when women “act” as if they need help with something it’s b/c she may think that that’s what a man wants- a woman that needs a man. I’ve actually overheard guys say that they want a woman that’s needs him. And for the gentleman putting single mothers down or their profession such as being a child hood educator is actually just as bad as the shallow women looking for the 6inches, 6 figures, etc. children are the future so why is that a joke of a job. There are single fathers too, I’d never think less of a single father. Look, I dated my ex husband since I was 14 yrs old and we are in our late 30’s early 40’s, so him and I both are single parents. I seriously hope that WE ( women and men) realize that we are here on earth together and get over our hostile hatred of one another.

Oozes of Materialism. That being said, men date and marry younger women all the time so you're not limited to women in their 40s. The trick for men is controlling their overwhelming lust and making sure there's a balance of what you NEED. Maturity comes to mind.

Great video. This hit home a bit for me. Makes a lot of sense. Subscribed!

Doesn't Hypergamy naturally dictate that you can't date on an equal level? Or do you mean a more equal "closer" level? Also I find a LOT of woman in their 40's are in a bad positions. They waited till late in life to have kids cause of their "career" in pencil sharpening. Now 40ish with 2+ kids looking for a guy with money cause their marriage failed. I don't have the kind of money to support a woman with kids. I foolishly thought love would prevail. After the looks wore of she just stopped making time. "My kids need me". My point, don't fool yourself into thinking that money doesn't matter to them. At that point that is all that matters.

I went to my high school 20 year reunion. Every woman there was way too old.

I'm so glad I'm single again. I will never give up anymore yrs of my life to another bullshit relationship. I'm happy being single. what that means is,I'm not Marr anymore,I can date whom ever I want,do whatever I want, feels good to have my life back. I feel free,

why do you keep assuming that a man in his 40's has to date women in their 40's???

I'm in my 40's and single. Like couldn't be better! Concentrate on yourself! bettering yourself, educating yourself, doing the things you love, take care of your responsibilities, have some self respect and drop the baton at every red flag, do not case! .....and everything else will fall into Place! 🤘

The 40 year old and older women I've seen in clubs bars and tender are not that pretty. Travel overseas and enjoy the women over there it's much better.

Guys, leave your comments and best tips below for the community. The best advice I got from my family lawyer was never date down. What's your experience been? Stuck on something? Need coaching? Book my time below www.reach.me/RichardCooper clarity.fm/richardcooper

I understand about being careful, and that is important, but we can't really hold hypergamy against women. It is an evolutionary trait. In the past they had to pick a man that would be a winner, or one that they perceived as a winner. This was done to ensure offspring a good future and higher probability of survival. So it's hard wired into them, love them or hate them. If they didn't have this trait a lot of us might not be here.

Great Video Rich! Love this one... So many girls these days OVER 30 who are more concerned about posting pics on IG amazinlgy FUN LIVES, travel, partying, and FRI-YAY (Friday).. They have ZERO concern about there own future.. Either no job or crappy 45k/year jobs, no savings, no future, likely still living @ home, declining SMV, not a high IQ... Its REALLY BAD OUT THERE...With thecost of living rising extremely quickly, especially housing in the GTA, things are only going to get worse for ppl who don't take care of themselves first.... and there will be a lot of men who are going to learn the hard way :(

I'm 46 and I say stay single my friends.

Dude, you're a f*ck*ng legend. Talk about clearing up blind spots. Thank you!

Richard, though I'm in my early sixties (and can pass for mid-forties) it's the same or worse at this age, good advice, well spoken. The older women get the scarier it gets...

I'd like to say...great content and relevant to men. What you say may be taken wrong by some listeners but to us divorced, mutilated, court abandoned, stripped of house and bank accounts single dads, we resignate with the thoughts and experiences. Oh awesome cars.

*Awesome video! Very much appreciated.*

Great video! Thank you!

I just turned 40 and I feel about 12 years younger and I am going back to school now. I think a lot of this is relative information.

I'm 48 and broke af divorcing and seeing a 22 year old super model who digs the shit out of me. I bring zero to the table.

awesome video, exactly what I need

Do one for 50 s ! ...I look very young. Single, No ex. No kids. 10 years ago, I just stopped caring about girls, I'm the happiest I've ever been since I decided they don't matter to me like they did most of my life. Just sharing. thanks

I am in my 40,s and next week i have to get the divorce papers in process, she ruin my life, disrespectful, guys run away from women that are too demanding and can´t follow a man!!!

THIS is AMAZING insight!👍 Thank you for going on Recon' & SHARING this Invaluable Intel'! ⚡💪🏽😉

I pass the 6 6s except for the six pack, I literally just came off the phone from a girl who has very little income and told me “I’d have to bring my horses”. The conversation ended fairly quickly.

don't get me started on "hair & make-up artists" lol

#EntrepreneursInCarsLife🏁🤙🏻. Keep the great advice coming dude. Priceless Advice...

In other words: This video does not apply to peasants who make less than 100.

Look for a woman that can take care of you

Great video Rich as per usual. but I only counted 5 not 6, maybe the last one is six feet under and she claims on the death insurance , happy ever after lol

Spot on. Can you do a video for men in their 50's? Probably the same message but curious to know your thoughts. thanks.

after a bad break- up and she tried to screw me in court , im very weary of gold diggers, i worked very hard for years to own my house, and now i,m afraid that a woman will try it on again. what do i do?

Sexual market place vale = Feminist head explodes at reality. Love it. Unique perspective and spot on advice without negativity. Wish I learned these lessons from someone else instead of the hard way. Great advice and thank you for the video.

In two months "What Are The Best Dating Tips For Men in Their 80s" will be the next video

Thanks for the video, Rich!

Enjoyed the vid, thanks!

Dude spot on- men fight for resources and women fight for access to those resources. As a 44 year old CEO I thought the single mom was my only option.. till i found this community. I have tried dating the single mom with 2 kids in tow.. she put me last like like behind the dog, would never go out on a date, did not want me close to her kids, after a couple months at arms length I took flock of seagulls advice - I ran so far away Never date down

How come all these videos are made by chaps with strings of failed shallow relationships claiming to fix your life if you buy their books or shove some money in the patreon hole? I think I see a pattern.

So is this continuation of financial support for the woman the case only if you live with her for a period of time?

Good information. I am glad I came across this video. Sometimes, it is okay to die single and alone rather carry emotional and financial hurt and still die alone. Have a good set of friends and plan your old age are the key take away for myself.

I’m a man 46: really haven’t achieved nothing in life, I’ll have to be honest and say that. I’m living in a house with 3 other guys, sharing accommodation. Met a 45 yo gorgeous looking woman 2 weeks ago, early child teacher, had incredible sex and intimacy for 2 days we met. From the moment we meet there was real attraction. However 3 days later she’s texting me goodbye. Tried to changed her mind but she wouldn’t budge. She went from being incredibly intimate and loving to becoming an emotional zombie in the matter of days. I was shocked. I guess she’s thinking she can get better deal elsewhere.

It's better to not date them at all.

Wendy barker you are truly rare in today's society, come what may please don't let life or people change you.

If a woman has 'full custody' of her child, the biggest risk factor is that she's already forced a father OUT. A woman that does not respect FATHER is a woman that will devour whatever she can of you. No ifs, ands, or buts.

DDs put you in a trance lol

Very few states have common law marriage. I live in the liberal lunatic state of California and even here that does not exist. As long as you don't sign that contract and to be safe, NEVER EVER co-mingle funds with them. I'm in my late 40's, happily divorced and am a low level MGTOW who makes 6 figures and has been dating younger gals for years. Check your own state to be sure. Great video btw!

Another excellent video. One of the best channels on the internet.

If Im in getting in shape mode? Would it be good to meet women that are personal trainers? There is a few good looking ones that take care of themselve but are they girlfriend material or can she be a supportive partner since I am doing something that is making me to become a better version of myself as well taking care of myself..?? What are your thoughts??

jeez, I'm just gonna say try not to have kids in or live in Canada if the family law is that bad, If you are able to move your business outa there do it.

They're all hypergamous though, so really the only way to "win" is not to play.

Just found the video I was hoping to see. LOL. Fantastic

What video would you recommend for my 18 year old nephew before he go to college

Captain Save-a-ho!! Bahahaha

The biggest thing I found dating in my forties is that I classify as the train wreck these girls may look beautiful from the outside they may appear to have their shit together but if you really look behind the great curtain of Oz you will see the levers being pulled they might have a couple of sugar daddies on the side helping them pay their bills these are very dangerous women because they deal in the currency of your heart and try to make you believe into a situation that they create but it is not true. It is happened a lot to me in my 40s as I meet these girls in their late 30s or mid 30s they tend to have children very young and their children may be about 17 18 by the time you meet these girls they are trying to figure out themselves from the beginning after raising their child or children.

I just want to thank you! for a direct no nonsense advise to men! well done my friend God Bless you!!!! I will be in touch to seek council from you! you are smart! and you are a God sent!!!!!

38 I dated 2 women briefly (2 dates - few weeks) had 2 kids (was told I was having both in the same week) will pay for them for 18yrs and battle to raise them.

She’s looking for Captain save a hoe… Brother that is brilliant I almost wrecked my car when I heard that. We need to talk man!

Please do a video for guys in their 70s.

awesome. i didn’t know that. probably going to save me one day.

I have an ex from 20 years ago, who is coming to Texas from Colorado. When I was with her, she only had one kid and we were young, so I was willing to be that provider since I was really into her. I am 45. I told my wife about this and my wife just laughed, knowing that I am completely faithful because I tell her everything she said to go ahead and meet her for lunch. She is not here for me. She is here for her work, I spoke to her on the phone, and you can hear all the regrets she has from our conversation that I was the best guy she could’ve had. I know what she’s getting at and so does my wife. Me and my wife have been together for 17 years and that isn’t changing. My ex has six kids from three different fathers.. just meeting her for a dopamine rush And basically say, I told you so. Don’t get me wrong my ex is gorgeous but so is my wife and my wife is my best friend so no comparison. Life is bittersweet isn’t it?

ive only got 5 fives

Not sure where you’re meeting these women. I’m 40, a single parent. Even though I’m working on getting my financial shit together (aka, working on getting my biz going), I’m not looking for a guy to “save” me. And yes, I have turned down financial help from men. Best of luck to you finding women. Maybe you can try business conferences, there are plenty of ambitious and single women who attend. Just a thought

So if I work crap jobs all my life and then one day land a really good job, will my employer be on the hook to "guarantee" that standard of living from the good job the rest of my life should I either quit or get fired?
