How many of you guys meet the "6666" standard in dating?

(It means 6 figures, 6 feet, 6 inches and 6 pack for the unaware)

I know pretty much everybody here makes >500 pretax, unless you're just out of college or in a third world shithole like Nigeria, Somalia, Israel or Venezuela, but do you guys meet the 6 feet, 6 inches and 6 pack rule?

It's pretty easy to meet the 6 inches rule if you're over 6 feet (basic anatomy), but the six pack one is harder for most guys. Unless you're tracking your diet and on a unsustainable bodyfat % (>12%) which makes you fatigued all the time, it's nigh-impossible to maintain a chiseled six pack in any sort of high finance or equivalent (MBB) role.

Personally I meet the 6666 rule (30.8MM RMB, 6'2, 7 inches), and I'm sure that almost any successful man in finance also has to be tall and in shape.

I agree with most of them, but it's pretty easy to tell who's 6' and who's not. Even when I was a kid and around 5'7, I could roughly tell who was in the 6' club and who wasn't based off a glance and what shoes they were wearing. The actual height can be manipulated through hairstyles and hats, but the height of the shoulders are usually a dead giveaway.
