     You are not your job. You are not what you have in the bank. Nor are you the contents of your briefcase. Neither the clothes you wear. You are not good-looking and unique. The first thing that happens is that you cannot sleep. Then, you have a gun to your mouth. And then you meet Tyler Durden. Let us talk of Tyler Durden: he has a plan, and all trust him, but to him, all you possess will eventually possess you. Only when you lose all are you really free.

     To Tyler, self-development is masturbation and self-destruction may be the response. He is a rich, bored executive. Together with a friend, he finds a way out for the fact that life does not make sense, by establishing a Fight Club where it is possible to counteract boredom in a ring. The first rule for the club is not to talk about the club. The second is not to talk about the club.
