    How I went from $0 to $300,000 at the age of 22 (Oh, and back to $0)

    MINDSET 
    An acquaintance of mine made money buying and selling... crypto-kittens. The story is completely epic. His writeup, How we made $100K trading CryptoKitties

    I went from 0 to $38,000, then back to nothing. Here is my story

    NOTABLE! 
    That is, so far. Until the end of the cycle. When the next depression happens, you will lose all you've made. I've just looked at Betterment from Jan, 1, 2008 through Jan, 1, 2019 (Wealthfront was not around). Betterment (100% stock, the most risky) increased +72.6%. Betterment 0% stock...

    Business Structure & Personal LLC Questions

    Disclaimer: I only know it in theory. The LLC provides twofold benefits. First, if there is a slip-and-fall on the property, the tenant/visitor may decide to sue the owners. If the owners are an LLC AND a person, they may choose to sue the person. Second, somebody may sue you for something...

    Dealing with procrastination when you're comfortable

    HOT! 
    You deal with it by not procrastinating any more. I know it feels awkward, to suddenly takes action after 6 months, because then you really have to acknowledge to yourself, how little progress you have made. The alternative is waiting and letting your dreams slowly die :smile2: Leverage also...

    Need Life Advice/Very Long Rant (Mid 30s, Live w/Parents)

    RANT 
    @Quartz , are you interested in freedom, or just LAZY? Johnny boy makes things look easy, but social skills as well as marketing intelligence can take years and extremely hard work to develop. Also, the idea of computer science sounds like a fantasy at this point. My advice is not to do it (I...

    27 year old man from Pune, MH, India

    INTRO 
    My advice is, don't learn Python (I do have tech background.) There are lots and lots of developers who are interested in business opportunities, essentially, to escape the slowlane. You just need to partner with someone. The only problem will be evaluating skills, which is a huge problem even...

    Growing and learning

    That was entertaining to say the least! Sell the script to Hollywood, let them make a movie!

    I'm going to be honest... I really don't care.

    INTRO 
    Hi there, I can relate very well -- about freedom. As far as not wanting to have a job, you can take Kevin O'Leary (the guy in the U.S. show "Shark Tank") -- he had only had a job for one day in his life, and then it was enough :) Regarding "always telling me ...why you not clubbing any more...

    What is the BEST "value" you ever paid for?

    NOTABLE! HOT! CHAT EXECUTION 
    (1) Air Purifier IQ Air GC Series for $1200+. I have a very mild, intermittent asthma, and for a while I fought out of principle. But then I figured, I'd rather be 100% productive at home and pick my battles. This purifier clears everything. (2) Daily Contact Lenses Acuvue Oasys. They are 2X...

    A Bizarre Idea - An online platform where you can leave anonymous private advice/feedback/review

    IDEA 
    At least in the U.S., one real need is interview feedback for job applicants. The companies are afraid to give any information because of the possibility of getting sued, let alone wasting time on someone not interested in growth. A candidate can be interviewing, and every company will see the...

    Does the feeling ever end?

    Learn to ignore your thoughts and emotions. This is a must if you want to be really good at anything. E.g. you did 30 pushups and your mind tells you it can't do any more. You ignore what your mind tells you and do 5 more. Then when you feel you are really collapsing, you ignore it once again...

    REAL resources on self image and self belief

    NOTABLE! 
    (1) Nothing will change you overnight. Eckharte Tolle's story of an instantaneous transformation is misleading in this sense. I've had a few such transformative moments, but even then, there were years of follow-up efforts to integrate the changes. (2) Don't listen to people who've just read a...
