This isn't directly MGTOW philosophy per se, just my own personal philosophy or "rule of thumb" which helps me make decisions and weigh costs and benefits, which I think it important within MGTOW, so other might benefit from this. However since it is my personal philosophy, I did not put "MGTOW" in the title.
