Thanks for helping, I'm looking for some objective ways to raise my chances.
Stats: Male, Asian, 6'4, 33 years of age, neutral appearance (i don't think I'm good looking), I work in medicine and my annual income is approximately 450,000 dollars, I have no kids.
I'm a pretty scientific person and I've been reading a lot, I have been lifting and I will continue. Should I get as much plastic surgery as possible to make my face as masculine and symmetrical as possible? Possibly also hire a quality personal trainer to make professional gains?
Another issue is that I have had some mental health issues in the past over losing loved ones to disease. It has given me some anxiety and depression. I hope to work on that too.
Anyways, thank you for your two cents.

Fuck no to plastic surgery. That shit can fuck you up.
You're 6ft4 and earn $450,000 annually; women can look past the face. You're probably fine.
Keep lifting, work on your depression & anxiety, improve your dress/grooming, start living an exciting life you enjoy.

Thanks haha, I look like a version of Mr. Rogers. I guess it bothered me a bit that I don't have a mean masculine look.

You have all the value you'll ever need. Now you need good enough social skills and access to the kinds of women you're interested in.
So build a social circle around your hobbies and interests that dovetail with the kind of women you'd like to meet.
Like arty women? Start going to art galleries. Like outdoorsy women? Get involved in cross country hiking challenges (Tough-mudders). etc. etc.
You don't have to use your money to buy things, but it can help you get access or create an ecosystem where lots of women are present.
Your current value + good enough social skills + access = all you need.

It's the other way around mate.
Do the activities you like because you like them, not because someone you think you like likes them.
If you don't, your frame is dead before it even got a chance to be built.
But you are right when it comes to building social circles. Build them around the activities you enjoy.

Pretty much the same thing.
But if you're really like playing video games you're not doing yourself any favours. Yes I know women play games as well but you only have so many hours in the day.
Better to look for synergy in as many things as you can.

If you're that tall and banking that much yearly it's safe to say your SMV is already top notch, you could literally fuck escorts every weekend and not make a dent in your income.
You seem kinda high strung, loosen up and live a little. Start going to new places and enjoying your money. What good is making that much cash if you're scared to spend it?

Seriously. Go buy stuff that you don't even really have to attribute to "money I spend to get laid."
Get a baller ass tailor made suit. Get a baller watch. Get a baller haircut. Go fucking act like a baller everywhere you go. You'll never have to spend a dime on a woman, you just spend money on yourself and they'll convince themselves you are going to spend it on them.

Thank you, I agree I think things over too much. I was also kinda embarrassed by being so tall as it is not "normal" for an Asian. I will try my best to live more free flowing.

This will help raise your SMV, but it comes with downsides and risk.
Yes.
You have the resources to get very good professional help with this. Make sure it's not the "just talk about your problems" type of bluepill nonsense.
Build your confidence primarily. Sounds like it's not that high. Learn to be positive, flirty, funny, forward and dominant with women.

Income: Bank.

Social:
Plastic surgery won't address where you actually need improvement (frame and social skills) to "raise your chances". Anxiety and depression can be improved with frame and coping with as opposed to dwelling in (keep busy by improving). A lot of traditional Asians have a very analytical way of thinking and perceiving the world. Don't think so much, enjoy life and have fun. Try new things and seek productive hobbies, there may be a badass mountain climber, a passionate guitar player, a poetic writer or an adventurous deep sea fisher somewhere inside you. Live it out.

Your annual income is what now?! Dude buy an Audi R8 and always wear a suit.
dumbquestions34 10y ago
I love cars but I never feel comfortable spending on luxury. Although I will definitely use the money if it is efficient.

Well we are talking about SMV. Guys have nice things because women like nice things.

Buy a Lotus Elise. More or less cheap, cool and EXTREMELY FUN to drive. It usually comes with a little +120hp Toyota engine, but because of being that lightweight it is super fast.
So: Fast, affordable, low fuel consumption, cool, and the feeling of buying a glove with wheels instead of a luxury car.
Cons: It was a bit loud inside, and it has pretty much no electronics, but that was back in 2000's, IDK today's models.

Get a Tesla Model S. Well within your reach. It is the best car ever made on multiple fronts.

sidebar for /r/theredpill is a good thing. Also just look at how other men dress and how fit they are who are getting laid the most. Do that, some version / variation of that. Also have money.
Excessive symmetry is inhuman and unattractive. Never do that. No face is symmetric.

Your physical features are fine, unless you've left out some quasimodo-esque deformity. Your height and income put you in prime position, particularly for your age bracket. Start putting yourself out there.

Thanks, I look normal, but with a Teddy-bearish appearance and personality.

6'4 and make 450,000 a year? That's high smv.
Sounds like you need confidence and game.

Why? Do you want the attention you receive to be genuine?

What's your favorite non-work/science related hobby?? If you don't have one, get one and invest in it.
dumbquestions34 10y ago
I like to cook! Chinese, Korean, and Indian food. But I will try to explore some more sociable hobbies too.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks of it as an elephant in the room, but what specifically is it that you do in medicine for a living? That's no laughable income.

Stop listening to these noobs saying "buy x".
You know as well as I do that is a Neverending upkeep.
If you want to raise your smv the most definitive ways are:
body. Be swole.
You're in my bracket(ish) so make a friend or pay out. My social proof comes from my parties and my vip list, (state wide recognized vips, not anything larger, but it works, and I'm working on it) host. bring them to your playground, your castle Unlike most of the guys here, you can afford to do a good shindig twice a month. Build desire, approach within your power dynamic. Win.
This will help everything, depression, (more positive feedback, small successes build) and less anxiety (exposure therapy is still the go to). Do plastic only if this doesn't work after a good 6 months consistently.
Good luck and don't be gaudy. If you need personal tips I can help out. Been doing Sunday cocktails for about 2 years now.

Have you people ever thought that trying to have sex with as many women as possible, and getting a temporary dopamine and oxytocin release to curb your sense of longing for a partner and sense of purpose for a week, is about as effective in treating depression and sadness as a drug addict using heroin a few times a week to treat those exact same things?
This is completely degenerate advice. Work on yourself, try to better yourself, try to cultivate interpersonal relationships. Looking at interpersonal relationships as if they're a commodity to be used and traded to improve your social standing is the opposite of fulfillment.
