Tech stocks are one of the best investments there is. Just need the quality ones.

Don't kid yourself.
That wasn't ever a thing.

Always was.

Pulling isn't the same as sex.
Maybe 50% of the girls you pull will have sex.
And pulling every other day would be very peak. You'd have to be very skilled to do that. You shouldn't be comparing yourself to the peak.

If someone is up for adoption that pretty much means no one is around to take them. If a serious pseudo-parent was available the kid would already be with them. Extended family will rarely have the means to raise a kid for 20 years.
You should be more worried about whether you are mature enough to take on such a massive commitment. That is the real issue.

That's a really huge leap that is likely to cause a big ego backlash in you.
I suggest you start with smaller ways of being truthful. For example, stop lying to your girlfriends about small stuff.

Mankind have been "technology addicts" since 300,000 years ago. Man basically cannot survive without technology.
Calling it an addiction misses the depth of the issue.
Apple, Facebook, Netflix solve many real-world problems. Contemplate their function in survival.
Digital tech does indeed grow faster than other kinds of tech because software is easier to upgrade than hardware, and software transcends physical limits. Sharing a digital video course with every child in the world is like 100000x more efficient than printing and shipping hard copies. That's highly valuable.

A girl does not need to be crazy to cause you drama and headaches.
A truly crazy girl would destroy your life.

OP, believe it or not, I lost my virginity when I was 27 and a half years old. 
I got incredibly frustrated with finding a girlfriend or even finding a girl that I was down to have sex with. I even got rejected hundreds of times before and there were many times I felt so hopeless about it all.
But I eventually got my first lay and then got laid with a few more girls. By the time I was 30 years old, I got my very first real girlfriend ever.
I tried everything from online dating sites/dating apps to cold approach/warm approach to meeting girls in social circle for years in small cities, which led me to getting countless nos and some yeses. 
The dating game has really gotten messed since around the beginning of the 2010s because of the rise of the internet, social media, and women becoming more and more capable of being independent. In some ways, it has become more rigged against men. However, it has become easier than ever before to meet all new kinds of women out there.
It's crazy, but in this day and age, I feel like you gotta really play the numbers game hard by approaching and asking out as many new women you meet in real life as possible. Also, you gotta play the numbers game even much more so with online dating sites/dating apps by matching with, messaging, and asking out as many new women as possible on those venues.
I think it really sucks hard trying to meet new girls when you live in a small or even medium-sized town or city that's not big like Vegas, Phoenix, Chicago, Austin, LA, or NYC. It's so unfair.
You especially gotta play the numbers game to the max to get laid with and get in a relationship with attractive women.
 

Serious chronic health problems that have no solution. Or very old age.
I read about a case of an Iraq war veteran who got so badly wounded in battle that he could not walk, could not sleep, was in constant physical pain 24/7, had to be taken care of by a nurse every day, and had to shit in a bag because his intestines were too damaged. He lived in hell for several years, his girlfriend left him, no doctors or medicine could help him. His only realistic solution was suicide and so he killed himself.
That to me is a legitimate case for suicide. Not getting laid is not. You don't even realize how good your life was until you have a woman to constantly deal with. You will be begging to be single after a while of girl drama.
Sex with the same girl will soon get boring. And many other factors will diminish the quality of real-world sex: from problems with timing, to girls who are bad at sex, to condoms, to pregnancy scares, and more.
Of course sex is nice, but it's not as nice as people make it out to be.
Don't forget that sex ain't free. You'll be paying for it somehow. Usually with crazy drama. You will have to deal with all sorts of girl nonsense just to get that sex. Some degree of that is okay, but it does get old after a certain point.
I'm not saying don't pursue sex or relationships. Pursue it. But don't exaggerate its importance to your happiness. A day will come when you will wish you were single and free. When you finally realize your need for girls was largely a fantasy of your own making you will finally find some peace and happiness. Don't confuse horny excitement and drama for peace and happiness.

3 cops can barely hold down a 100 pound meth head girl. That dude was an ox.
Wrestling is a game, with rules. In real life a crack whore will bite off your finger, stab you in the eye with her car keys, grab your gun and shoot you in the face.

Having a large supply of drugs is like having a large supply of snacks. Don't be surprised how fast you will burn through it. Stocking your house with 10,000 pounds of snacks is not the wisest thing.

I was exactly your age when I started my pickup journey. It's not too late at all.
There's nothing wrong with your situation. This is not a reason to kill yourself.
The solution is simply to focus on socializing and talking to girls. You still have time to meet many girls.
But also, frankly, jerking off can be more enjoyable than sex with girls. You'll be surprised that sex with girls is not as good as it seems. I can have a better sex by myself. When you realize this it's a huge relief.

I'm exceptionally solitary and introverted. So my lifestyle would not suit most people.
Don't copy me. Find what is right for you.

The solution is to socialize a lot and stop caring.
When you socialize the point is to have fun and offer people good vibes. That's all. Focus on that rather than thinking about yourself. Eventually you will stop thinking about yourself entirely when you are out.

The reason people drink when they socialize is so they can turn off their mind from thinking about all this crap.
Notice how carefree you are when you're drunk and then just act that way sober. That's the master key.

Online dating is primarily looks-based platform. Doesn't mean that's where it ends but you want to show something that sparks immediate attraction in the opposite gender. As a guy you are competing with tens of thousands of others and you have only a split second time to peak her interest.
The first few months of most new relationships are usually pretty carnal so you want to invoke a little bit of that "wow, he's cute" rather than "oh cool, he reads so many books." You don't want to come across as boring, patronising or self aggrandising . You want to excite her primal drive a little bit so she browses through other of your pics and maybe opens a profile and maybe reaches out. 
In practical terms this would mean: 
hobby (example) - a nice picture of you in hiking overall out in the mountains that shows clearly your face and a bit of your body. It shows you like a bit of adventure, that you are healthy because you spend some time outdoors and that you are at least stage green person (if thats the kind of your you want to attract)  personal picture - a nice picture of you, not too retouched and not too filtered. Clean clothes.  Nice, natural smile, tidy hair, clean face, ideally clear from acne and visible skin conditions where possible.  trimmed facial hair, ideally taken in natural light with an unspecific background not as a selfie in your kitchen at 10pm. No cheesy AI edited photos.  Also think that if you are looking for more than a quick shag, you are seeking a high quality conscious woman. She will be looking at your looks and judging if you are a suitable partner and potentially father of her kids one day. She is not looking for a supermodel but she doesn't want a scruffy-looking dude in Buddhist linen outfit, sitting against a wall holding mudras (no direct offence meant at all, I'm generalising ). She wants to see that you are a relatively attractive-looking dude, who looks easygoing, confident in his own skin and fun to be around. And if those photos can "stir her loins" a little bit that's even better but you don't need that if that's not your thing. 
If you don't think that's right for you then maybe online dating isn't going to be your thing, there are tons of other ways to meet women that allow for a more holistic expression although the pool of available women will shrink proportionately. 
And finally, the answer the question of inauthenticity. Yes, online dating is a bit unauthenthic but you have to play that game a bit. Its all about getting that first date and selling to her more of your real personality. Until then, you have to play the attraction game or you'll end up being ignored by all women who have options. If you can't swallow that pill and post a little bit of show for yourself, you'll end up alone.

In practice you have to do these things to climb the ladder and succeed at work.
That's the difference between a job and a career. If you had a career you would be willing to do these things.

Now you are ready to appreciate my video: How To Escape Wage Slavery
P.S. Policing can be very meaningful and worth taking a bullet for. But only if it is meaningful to you. If you don't find a job meaningful you shouldn't be doing it. That's what it all boils down to.

I'm not exactly a role model for personal development. But, I at least give some shit about helping others and make some efforts to not offend others.
Most people start hating me very quickly if I don't start helping them soon.
Many online community admins treat their communities like their personal possessions and are quick to block people who even slightly bother them instead of acting for the greater good of the communities.
This can be love in the sense that people couldn't do better, but it's not that difficult for people to do better than now.
 

The only reason I succeeded was because the marketplace was not monopolized and saturated when I started.
The environment has gotten much more monopolized since then. 
It's not just that there are large corporations, they have been turned into digital serfdoms over the last 15 years.
This is a thread about the health of the ecosystem as a whole, of course a few individuals can always find success in any system.

You can't know that without trial and error.
It's like asking, How do you know how far you can run? You try running and see how far you get. Your ability to run is within the ego's control but at some point that will break down and your body will just fail and you can run no more.
But it's obvious that it is not within the ego's ability to turn into a pig. That's why we call that "genetics". Genetics is the stuff about your dream that your ego cannot change.

The real limit is not the brain but the dream that is your entire life. The brain is just an aspect of that dream. You are limited because you are committed to dreaming a particular dream. If that commitment was broken then you would either die or go insane. And you are not in control of this dream.
You are dreaming that you are a human and not a pig. And so it is. If you could dream that you are a pig, you would be a pig. But you don't know how to do that because it is beyond the ego's power.
You as ego didn't choose. You are just a puppet of reality.
