I’m not really one to “slide into someone’s DM’s” but sometimes I do see women leave their insta handle on hinge and I am tempted to … I just feel like it’s so cringe. I’m pretty straightforward and don’t do small talk on dating apps… so I was thinking about something like
“hey, came across your profile on hinge, my horoscope today said I should do something out of the ordinary & I’d get rewarded, so I’m not one to DM slide…but here it goes.. drinks this week?”

What do you guys think?

I’d expect them to be unresponsive just like they are on the dating apps. Feel like they just have their handles there to boost their follower counts and don’t really have dating intentions.

If you're gonna try just skip to "drinks this week?"

Women usually leave their insta on Hinge because guys will follow them. Some get hundreds of new followers a week this way, I've been told.

Being direct and to the point is the way to go if you do decide to DM... And certainly don't use the horoscope crap - as C1 said, just skip to "drinks this week?"

TL;DR: Social Security matters.

My wife & I are 35. If we quit working today, at 70 we are entitled to a combined $50k in annual SS in today’s dollars. (Source: SSA.tools)

$50k real is significant. Let’s be conservative and say that a 70 year old couple spends $100k per year. That’s SS meeting half of your required expenses.

Current law with current demographics shows that SS can fulfill 79% of benefits into perpetuity.

Assuming SS will disappear means working decades longer than needed
