This is an actual argument a “sigma grindset” coworker gave me once, specifically about being away from distracting women and just around other men who want to make money, and he’s in prison for sexual battery so I guess he’s happy now

In the U.S. we have this nice feature they call pay to stay. Where you get billed for being in prison. So you may very well be paying $25 a day to be in prison, and I think I remember seeing you can make about .86 cents a day working. So that’s like $4/week working, and you owe $175 that week in fees.
