    My family always tells me to get a job.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I have two college degrees, and I have done all of the following: delivered newspapers, delivered pizza, scrubbed toilets, sold hot dogs, worked in factories, worked as a nanny and chauffeur (in one of the biggest cities in the US), worked as a house cleaner, worked 15 hours shifts as a fast...

    SO MUCH SLOWLANE PRESSURE!

    MINDSET SLOWLANE RANT 
    I might be wrong, but I've always literally thought that everyone can do this when they are the outside looking in. The problem is not that others can't see flaws in businesses, but that businesses don't have any interest in implementing change because it's easier not to.

    F Tinder tell me where you men hang out at.

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    Well, I own a cat and have currently given up on dating, so I may not be giving the best advice. However, I had the best luck with a pre-screened dating service. The two I used were religion based, though, but I'm sure pre-screened ones exist that are nonreligious. If you go the online route, I...

    Howdy from Scotland

    INTRO 
    That is exactly what I plan to do --relaunch on my own website and I agree about Etsy. Don't get me started on their degradation since going public.

    Howdy from Scotland

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum! I've sold on Etsy in the past too. :) If you don't mind my asking, are you still selling there and if so, how did you scale up? Manufacturing? I've toyed with restarting my business there on a larger scale, but I think it's going to actually be my slow lane venture so I can...

    LSD / Drugs and Entrepreneurship

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I am firmly in the "Just say no" camp. The negative effects of the entire drug trade outweigh any one person's desire to make cold calls or whatever BS reason they use to justify it.

    Rural areas vs. Urban

    MINDSET RANT 
    This is why I call in folks from the big city to fix anything. I do not call the guy down the street. "Everyone" uses him, but he's a. nosy as hell and b. on island time. And I don't use the other guy down the street either because one day he's going to be that guy on the news. And not on...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I finally finished it! I would post a review, but when I go to Amazon, it says I have no orders in the past year??? :duh: Anyway, AWESOME. If you haven't read it, DO IT. And while you're at it, read TMF. I am now going back and rereading all the stuff about value creation and generating ideas...

    Is opening a Coffee Shop a good idea ?

    HOT! IDEA 
    If you can get the customer's name on their cups and properly make their order, you are way ahead of most of them. Excellence of execution will help you succeed in a crowded market. I went to Beelzebucks today and it was like a Laurel and Hardy skit. The big downside of low unemployment...

    [PROGRESS THREAD] ChickenHawk's Self-Published Fiction EBooks

    GOLD! 
    @ChickenHawk --I just want you to know how much this thread has inspired me! I've toyed with the idea of self publishing fiction but never read such an in depth first hand account. It really should be marked Platinum. :smile2:

    Should I dumb down my content for people like @vigilante and @imgal?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I have trouble getting through your posts, and I read probably 250 books a year. It's not the length, it's the content. More concise content would be attractive to people who are more get-it-doners. Dumbing down the content would attract people who have a lot of leisure time to be...

    Reading rants on the internet can also be a waste of time... oh well, I already blew 90 seconds on bed making today, may as well waste the entire day! :smile:

    Can We Talk About Gary V? (Vaynerchuck)

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    I've listened to some of his stuff and I think he's pretty good. I don't have any idea how he originally succeeded in business, though, so hopefully he has actually done something other than hyping. I have a friend who recently lost a job (one I said, hey you should apply for this...), and he...
