    The PELOSI PILL: How to Invest Like Nancy Pelosi and Make a Fortune (No Insider Information Needed!)

    INVESTING NEWSLETTER 
    Lmao, MJ ! That’s probably why I couldn’t stomach it. I was specializing in trades that were based 100% on volatility. I had read multiple books on trading volatility and went deep taking action in that style of options trading. I even built my own software/scripts to help visualize and analyze...

    The PELOSI PILL: How to Invest Like Nancy Pelosi and Make a Fortune (No Insider Information Needed!)

    INVESTING NEWSLETTER 
    I got into options nearly 20 years ago but don’t trade anymore. Seems like a lifetime ago. If I remember correctly I used to buy collars ahead of company earnings reports. AAPL was my go to. I would then profit on the large price move from the earnings call. It was a volatility trade for sure...

    Teen Brothers Started a Side Hustle on Facebook Marketplace That's on Track for $1.2 Million This Year: 'Quit My Job and Went All In'

    Cool, hope they are profitable. Big revenue numbers are vanity metrics. That magazine article is sort of odd / funny to me. It's as if the magazine wanted to optimize SEO for "side hustle" and "quit my job" even though it's not too applicable. I've never heard of a teenager speak in terms...

    How Can Time Be Effectively Used Whilst In A Full-Time Job?

    QUESTION 
    I commend your realization to use your free time to build skills and a business and your mindset shift for recognizing the need to do do. Despite what "gurus" promise you by making things sound easy, in my experience it is not. I had to sacrifice almost everything over many years to be able to...

    Protesting home valuation movement?

    TAXES | REGS 
    It's true. As a teacher for more than 2 decades I had about 4+ bosses at any given time when I taught in public school. 2 Principals, a Department coordinator, and some bean counters from the board of education. I would get conflicting orders from everyone. The entire system seems to be geared...

    As a public school teacher of 23 years I can confirm this. (I recently quit and couldn't be happier)

    Starting & Growing A Micro SaaS Business

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    ditto btw: Content marketing is a worthy goal but man oh man it's like pushing a freight train...it takes a really long time to get any momentum. (I've used it in ecommerce and services, but I have no experience selling saas)

    What are your rules for your phone usage (especially social media)?

    HEALTH 
    For me the solution has 2 parts: Eliminating distractions (my end) Setting expectations (training other people / their end) My End All Notifications Turned Off - Nada I have 0 email access on my phone (no email app). If I wanted to check email in some strange emergency I would have to log...

    OFF-TOPIC RANT 
    Sorry couldn't resist. For all you nerds and jokesters.... If on Chrome browser use an extension that allows you to input your own Stylesheets/CSS https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/styler-beta/hbhkfnpodhdcaophahpkiflechaoddoi?pli=1 Then enable the extension, open the input section of...

    Cold Storage Advice in 2024

    INVESTING 
    This is good information, thank you. I have no interest in ETFs (like most bitcoin believers I think). That wallet choosing link is cool and you have given me some better questions to ask moving forward. I'm sure I will ask more later, but for now I have a bunch more stuff to learn. Thank you.

    Side hustles that you have or have done

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Geez, had I known you were going to take that one to heart I should have at least gotten my grammar correct! ''Spend your 168hrs per week wisely so that your future self will BE grateful to your present self.'' There, fixed it. Be well.

    OFF-TOPIC RANT 
    Agreed. Youngsters are coming from the ADHD land of discord. Personally, I do everything in my power to avoid any products or services that use the dreaded discord as a "support forum". Did I mention I hate discord? "But @MJ DeMarco how can I possibly have one hand on a video game...

    Side hustles that you have or have done

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Yes, my priorities are certainly geared for business and wealth building. But it all comes at a cost. I've lost many relationships (friends & family) over the years due to my relentless pursuits and excessive viewpoints and emphasis on performance and results overall. That's the path I choose...
