If you’re a man born ugly, short, bald, small member, etc (something that is not easily fixable) even if you achieve decent upper middle class wealth, think 5-10M, your overall quality of life will be worse than a guy who is a broke or LMC “Chad”.

I fall into this category. I’m a man who is unattractive and never got attention from women until my late 20’s when career took off, but even then it was difficult. I live a comfortable life with above average wealth, but not enough to live a baller lifestyle like you see in the movies. I have family members who are poorer than me but better looking and act passive aggressive jealous about my finances vs theirs, but they don’t realize how much better their social & dating lives were compared to mine because they’re conventionally good looking. I would trade all my money to be born as a man with top 5% looks and live paycheck to paycheck.

And so much of beauty can be bought. Men can get cosmetic work, hair transplants, get in shape, buy nice clothes. Beauty standards for women nowadays have gotten so extreme even the attractive ones need to invest so much time and money into their appearance.

Men can't grow taller though, and height is the top indicator of physical attracriveness.

you are still better off than an equally unattractive female

This. You can make money and be attractive to some women. Mostly the bad ones but some. It’s hard for unattractive women to be attractive to anyone though.

But so many short / ugly / balding guys just wallow down into the "I'd have such a better life if I was 6'4"!!" mentality that they're walking around either mopey or furious. And then when women are not attracted to a furious or miserable guy, he decides it's because women are shallow and he spirals further.

Correct.
