    After Columbus discovered America and headed back to Europe, he didn't stop in Spain first. He first went to Portugal who had earlier turned him down. He met with the King and rubbed it in his face. Only after that did he go to Spain. Just wanted to share that since I thought it's fascinating...

    Can I live off of interest on $100 Million for life?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    No. You pay taxes on the capital gains. The inflation rate is just how much less your money is worth. You'd only deduct the interest rate if you were running a net present value calculation on the annuity.

    Concentrate on growing your business and end this thread. If you lack the capability to even two-minute google some of these hypotheticals, then you lack the capability to grow a $100M venture. Stop being an idiot. Start working. When you make your first $1M, come back and post this stupid...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Grades only matter if: You're planning to go to grad school Your first job out of school (after your first job you take it off your resume) Your parents will kill you if you get bad grades Otherwise, it doesn't matter. Prioritize what matters to you.

    How do I stay motivated at university?

    Figure out what the average GPA is for a graduating class. Hit that average or slightly above every semester. Once you know you have that average, spend the rest of your time on other pursuits. For example, if the average is 3.1, then aim for 3.2, and don't give a crap about increasing your GPA...

    How do you guys even manage your time/energy?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    You don't have to work 100-120 hours a week. Not even 40 hours. Just the bare minimum to meet your goals. I'll bet my a$$ that 95% of this forum doesn't do more than 20 hours of hard work a week. I don't think most of society does - even if they're sitting "at work" for 60 hours. Figure out...

    $1B+ Powerball Jackpot - Did You Buy Your Ticket?

    I played for $6. Only time I'll ever play is with positive EV. Now need to check if I won. Edit: Lol. A friend told me it was positive EV and I tossed money on it. I need to stop being lazy and do the math, or listen to @pkom79 instead.

    [Germany] Buying And Selling Anything

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Yeah, but your mindset is flawed. I recommend you study business a bit and come back. Did you read @MJ DeMarco 's books? Read them. That way your efforts will gain you a much larger return, a lot faster. Your questions are: What should I sell? How can I buy it be cheap? Where can I sell it...

    [Germany] Buying And Selling Anything

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    @Hijena1 - you need to do a lot more research. The link @Vanderbilt mentioned above is a good start. No one here is going to do the work for you. My recommendation: learn a lot more before jumping into business. Your current approach shows enthusiasm, which is good, but lack of knowledge.

    He has a $450 car loan. Probably $150 in debt repayment. He's left with $900 a month. That has to cover rent, utilities, having enough fun to stay sane, gas for getting around to do his job, and food (which isn't cheap if his identity is tied to being in shape). Yeah, you can survive off of...

    INTRO 
    I wouldn't file for bankruptcy for $20k. Look for a new job. This one is obviously not paying you enough to get by. If you're in great shape, consider supplementing your income by being a personal trainer. If bankruptcy is your "only" choice, then consider doing something radical instead. I'd...
