I'm going to briefly cover the basics, if you're reading this and you're clueless, go back and read some GC articles. This is a personal/mental note.
Fundamentals
(Internal)
(Appearance) *This is depending on location & culture.
Here's a young Clint Eastwood - the epitome of cool.
(Behavior)
Here's James Dean, the quintessence of American Cool.
Okay, personally I have all these covered. Now I want to work on a fourth pillar. SOCIAL VALUE & STATUS. I want to meticulously break these down so I can really focus on them.
Before we start, I want to point out that I'm in college. So some of these aspects might not be universal but the core idea remains true.
Onwards.
Social Status & Social Value always come hand-in-hand. A person of high social status typically has a lot of value. You must GIVE value, to attain status. A highly valuable person will always have high status. A person high in status without any value to give is unheard of.
So what IS social value & status?
Social value are attributes that one can offer in order to make the experience or a person's life BETTER. This might be a little practical but bare with me on this.
Social status is people's perception of you, or rather - an assessment/measurement of your social value.
In college, social value includes alcohol, attractive women, a place to party, music, social skills, etc...However, your social status plays a HUGE part in your social value, and vice versa. For example, being in a fraternity automically gives you better social value/status than most students on campus. Because fraternity provides a HUGE social network, awesome parties, massive amounts of alcohol, and from a girl's standpoint - 80 hook-up options. On that same note, athletes can hold just as much value if not MORE than fraternity guys. I'd say the social hierarchy in college is...
STAR ATHLETE WITH PRO-POTENTIAL - These guys are VERY well known around nationwide. Especially in state universities with huge programs (Jameis Winston must have been drowning in pussy in FSU, same with Johnny Football)
FRATERNITY PRESIDENT/MOST POPULAR BROTHER AT TOP HOUSE - Again, generally well known throughout campuses. Trust me on this one. The most popular guy of the top chapter at my school slayed around 50 girls his freshman year of college.
STAR ATHLETES/OTHER VERY POPULAR FRAT GUYS/POPULAR INDEPENDENTS (DJ's, Drug Dealers, etc...) - These guys might not be the MOST well known, but they're still popular and hold high social value. The most popular guy at my fraternity banged around 20ish girls his freshman year.
STARTING ATHLETES/COOL FRATERNITY BROTHERS OF TOP CHAPTERS - These guys are relatively well known within their communities and thus hold high social value. Cool dudes in top chapters at my school hump around 15 girls a year. This is where I'm at.
ATHLETES/FRAT GUYS - These dudes are the bottom of the 20%. They generally do well for themselves though their pool is slightly below par sometimes.
The rest of the college population ( bottom 80%) generally have to try harder to bang girls and have to offer MORE value than we do. I offer very little value yet I get pussy because of the fact that my fraternity intrinsically gives me more perceived value. It's easy for me to provide a good time to anyone because of this simple fact. However, I WANT MORE. More, hotter girls.
1 out of every 5 girls I bang will be of high-caliber. Models, cheerleaders, dancers, top house sorostitutes, etc... The rest are 7's. I gave up 6's my freshman year hahahahahahaha. Although beer goggles will sometimes lower my inhibitions to hook up with a grenade or make them seem hotter than they are.
My aim now is to UP my social value in order to achieve a higher status, which is what I'm trying to figure out. So, let's go through a self-assessment.
What I DO have: (Fundamentals not included)
However, most of these times, is someone ELSE providing the value. I mostly get invited to shit, rarely do I provide the value personally. With that in mind, this is a list of how I can improve my personal social value.
What I Would Need:
The coolest guys in my chapter all live in party houses and provide these in abundance thus why they hold high social values. Personally I don't take drugs for shits & gigs unless they're offered to me for free. I really want to live in a house which is the single most important factor. The rest can be bought with money which is easy to do. However, we can take it to the next level.
Next level shit
Only some of these are feasible financially at this point personally but I've had the opportunity to experience all of them and they're pretty fucking awesome. The real value comes in providing it in abundance. A lot of the hottest girls I know are always going to awesome clubs/bars/parties with rich/well-connected guys and going on boat parties, DJ after parties or backstage at Ultra and shit. I want to be on that level...maybe in 5 years, who knows.
Thoughts, concerns, questions, comments, good vibes is all welcome. I want feedback and have constructive arguments. I want to hear what Old Faithful (GC Forums) has to say.

My aim now is to UP my social value in order to achieve a higher status, which is what I'm trying to figure out. So, let's go through a self-assessment.
What I DO have: (Fundamentals not included)
- Access to a large social network
Access to exclusive frat parties
Access to exclusive frat events
Access to other exclusive frat shit
Easy access to alcohol, adderall and mary jane. *If you're unaware, these are the top recreational drugs in college. Molly, shrooms and acid are not consumed as regular though I can also get them easy.
Easy access to a pool of hot women/cool guys (Depends who I'm trying to provide value for)
Constant social events to attend (Someone's always drinking somewhere. Beach, pool bars, small parties, etc..) There have been times where I've been faded every day or night for weeks straight.
However, most of these times, is someone ELSE providing the value. I mostly get invited to shit, rarely do I provide the value personally. With that in mind, this is a list of how I can improve my personal social value.
What I Would Need:
- A house (My school's currently building frat houses, if I lived in a frat castle my social value would escalate tremendously. I've visited the top party schools in parts where my fraternity is top and it is fucking INSANE)
Alcohol/Mary Jane at said house
A sound system
Possibly a grill/BBQ
Game systems
Alcohol games (Beer pong & such)
Hookah
Good vibes
The coolest guys in my chapter all live in party houses and provide these in abundance thus why they hold high social values. Personally I don't take drugs for shits & gigs unless they're offered to me for free. I really want to live in a house which is the single most important factor. The rest can be bought with money which is easy to do. However, we can take it to the next level.
Next level shit
- Throw massive house parties
Throw boat parties
Make road-trips
Go on cruises
Exclusive awesome parties
VIP at Clubs
Only some of these are feasible financially at this point personally but I've had the opportunity to experience all of them and they're pretty fucking awesome. The real value comes in providing it in abundance. A lot of the hottest girls I know are always going to awesome clubs/bars/parties with rich/well-connected guys and going on boat parties, DJ after parties or backstage at Ultra and shit. I want to be on that level...maybe in 5 years, who knows.
