LOL. You are bringing up the leader of a country? And comparing him to a (barely) 20k a year mid 30s "struggling musician". Saying hes proof that "an alpha is an alpha" crap. Have you ever thought no hot girl would give berlusconi the light of day if he wasnt...oh i dont know....THE PRIME MINISITER of a country? And barney stinson as an example?
Oh so now we're going to strictly define our tattoo guy when it stops suiting your argument to simplify him, right?
My point was that if you have alpha characteristics (being Prime Minister for Berlusconi among other things) will trump age in any case. You and Greyfeld have this misconception that a 30 year old alpha male is going to somehow start having trouble picking up attractive college girls just because of his age. He isn't.
And the definition of alpha male isn't going to change as you get older, either. If you walk into a bar with your 60/70k a year salary and go sit at the bar and order yourself a drink by yourself, you're still going to have a lot less luck than the tattoo'd rocker whose alpha male status probably has him already walking in with an entourage of people, or maybe he's over in the corner holding court with a number of other men and women. Either way I don't think I need to point out which one most women will find more attractive.
Of course, you can start to develop alpha characteristics (confidence, for one) AROUND your newly found career/job/goals, but make no mistake that it's in the characteristics, not the job itself.
