    I want to change the educational system...but I don't know how

    So, you are making a post about as broad as humanly possible and THEN expect us to provide a battle plan for your idea? Geezus. I don't mean to rant, but I literally just finished Unscripted. Hate to say it, but there isn't a blueprint. You take your idea, figure out what you want it to do...

    It's time for a "fast food" revolution

    HOT! 
    I eat out every single day of work...99% of the time it is Wendy's, KFC, TBell, or Which Wich. Does it get old? Yes...I crave it a lot, eat it, then don't feel fantastic while eating/done eating. I try to limit myself to $4-6 per day. I don't eat healthier because I would more than double my...

    What Computer Science areas that are "different"

    Programming doesn't interest me either...I haven't gotten into it much, so maybe a more exciting time lies ahead. I hate to say it, but with a Math degree, SQL and other programming BS is usually a requirement for most of the "better" jobs out there. But, learning something along the computer...

    What skill would you say is the most valuable in today's economy?

    HOT! 
    People have always said to hire programmers and not spend time learning it...but for dudes like me who don't have a brilliant idea, being able to program means you can move basically anywhere and build something from nothing for anyone. This already gets you freedom. While it may not make you...

    How to Get Up at 5 AM every day ?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    So much win in this post and fits what I'd say perfectly. My wife sets a 5am alarm to be to work by 7 and gets wide awake that early. I drag a$$, but can stay up until the weeee hours of the morning working hard on something...and be fine with getting up for 10am just before lunch. Do I like...

    Advice on Student Loan? what to do

    MINDSET 
    Student loans are some of the worst debts to have. A house you can sell it off and have equity or get rid of most of the debt....a car you will be f**ked, but you can sell off most of it. Credit card debt, you most of the time have something you want in return (clothes you don't need, a nice...

    Advice on Student Loan? what to do

    MINDSET 
    There is literally zilch incentive to pay off that student loan early. the only way I'd pay it off early is if you stuck all of the cash you ever made under your mattress and made 0% earnings. Me pissing in a toilet could earn more than .12%. I'm at 2-6.8% so .12% is nothing (unless you are...

    Grant Cardone "Buying a House is for Suckers"

    EXECUTION 
    Buying a house is the dumbest thing I've done. Is my own space cool? Yes...no more living in a duplex. I rented a nice, quiet $825/mo duplex newer construction in small, 5k resident town. Found a house around the corner over our budget for $167k. I'm in car sales and made $55kish last year...

    Go into debt for buying Magic cards, should I do it?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I am in the camp of stupid idea. I flipped video game stuff this year and someone asked if i wanted to buy his inventory at40% off or so. At first it aounded great as i could use 3-4k that was guaranteed. Then my friend snapped me back into reality and said how dumb it was. Not only will it take...

    What is your life like without a college degree?

    HOT! 
    *clicking through job postings....oh, college degree preferred but must have high school diploma. How about this one? "Requires high school diploma or equivalent work experience." (10 ads later after the same thing). "To become a scientist position, must have PhD and 10 years equivalent...

    If You Have Savings In Your 20′s, You’re Doing Something Wrong.

    HOT! 
    LOLOLOLOL. Says 20s are the time to gamble on yourself to get that 60k payraise, but doesn't fit the rest of her points. She doesn't save because she treats herself to clothes, clubs, going out to eat, etc. If she said I'm not saving because I'm throwing money to entrep ventures, then it...

    The Value of Things (And Why I Don't Drive a Lambo)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    LMFAO...who steals a yellow truck? Nothing like standing out. One thing I regret is having the DNA to appreciate and enjoy nice vehicles :p Even other friends who aspire to be entrepreneurs could really care less about cars. But once a car nut, always a car nut.

    Need advice...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Read anything by Tolle. The Power of Now, A New Earth, so forth. It makes my mind drift while reading since it seems repeated a lot and kind of philosophical to me, but this is the essence of what you are talking about. Basically, he says we as humans are dysfunctional...we are so consumed...

    MINDSET 
    Everything you listed you can do in less than a week. It takes a solid hour or two to write goals, and your 200 can be easily tripled buying/selling in just a couple days...hell, even one flip. The only thing that will take longer is the habit/discipline of your eating. Sounds like you're...

    Entrepreneurship Website

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I've done nothing in this space, but in my opinion, you would only need permission if you were going to use any of their content. If you're writing your own personal view on their stuff, then I wouldn't imagine so. Not really sure where you are headed with the idea, but in general, I think...
