Beware of not doing physical work. I am talking about physical labor. If you don't people will judge you. Why should you care what another man thinks about you? Well you shouldn't - but empirically it has been seen that more often than not those whose occupation involves punching numbers or letters at a computer feel inadequate when in the company of those with skills such as car skills, fixing skills, buildings skills, or other physical skills. How do they (we) make up for this shortcoming? The gym. Fitness activities in general that serve to make up for otherwise lacking strength. Is it a subconscious decision? Yes. If you are not a strong man - you are not a real man. And if you don't have man skills - you are doubly not a man. You could have all the money in the world, but if you are in a situation where someone you know is laying a concrete deck - and all you can do is watch - it won't feel good. If all other people around are contributing in various ways (this is a good example where I can't even describe what is going on because I don't know) and you are just watching like a female, it will hurt the confidence no matter how many deals you closed the last week in the office. So does all the hours at the sports club doing curls/dips/bench press/thrusters really make up for this lacking when a bunch of guys are doing building/constructing/fixing? No way. You still are worthless as far as contributing to the accomplishment of the goal. Ironically if you are real strong (and skilled at MS Office) from exploits at the gym you may be able to add to the process in various retard ways such as lifting heavy objects and this will degrade your manhood because you don't know how to do things that a man should be able to do.
Now the clear counterargument is that $$$ > All. Well if you find yourself in one of the above situations (another great example is having very simple car issues and having no idea what to do. You are likely getting screwed and made fun of at the auto shop and that is not a very manly thing to have happen to you regardless of how much $$$ you have, in fact the more $$$ you end up spending on something trivial such as an easy car repair, the less of a man you really are in this situation) then you will feel exactly what I described above.
Moral of the story is 1) get your cake up 2) but still get your physical labor type skills up
