    The Big Collapse

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Rapid deflation - Kind of like what happened in the first (Great) depression. However I think there will be great amount of market manipulation involved in achieving this. Money becoming more valuable but harder to get. Like if everyone went and pulled every single dollar out of the bank and...

    Happy Labor day!!!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I like the day off. It allows me to superficially increase my $/hour for the week. And gives me an extra 8 hours to do whatever the hell I want. Like work on my own business.

    I understand where you're coming from. I am trying to point out the reason why rapping isn't entrepreneurship. While it does have some business principles/lessons attached to it, so does working at McDonald's or Wal-Mart. The easiest way to break it down is using CENTS principles, since that is...

    How to turn "likes" into sales??

    I remember someone saying something along the lines of "everyone may think your idea is a great idea, until it's time to pay for it." You've learned something today. There may be a market, there may not be a market. To be honest, the only reason I'd use a Facebook business page is to re-direct...

    [Guide] Your Motivation: On setting goals

    I notice a lot of people are having trouble picking proper motivators. I do, my mother, and a few other people close to me also have this same problem. So I wrote do the things I want to accomplish. How I'm going to accomplish them. Most importantly, why I want to accomplish them. At first I...

    Started way after he was famous. He didn't have to struggle to get it off the ground and was a co-owner, not a sole owner. Didn't happen till after he was famous. You or I wouldn't be able to get that deal without twice as much money as he put in probably. He only has shares of real estate...

    Success Story - Daymond John "FUBU"

    MINDSET 
    He is an entrepreneur NOW. When he started rapping he was not. He didn't become an entre until later on in life after his fame took off. And yes I know how hard it is to get off the ground as a rapper/musician. I helped a few of my friends bands in high school get their first gigs and sell cd's...

    Success Story - Daymond John "FUBU"

    MINDSET 
    As a way to end the Jay-Z debate (albeit one sided debate) I offer a real entrepreneur, Daymond John. You may know him from the "Shark Tank" tv show or from his clothing line "FUBU". Came from a similar upbringing to J. Queens wasn't a nice place in the 70's/80's nor is being raised by a single...

    How do you decide if a specific industry is worth it?

    Is there demand? Do you already have buyers already lined up to get the product after you launch? If you say no to either of these questions you already have your answer. I seem to keep repeating myself... P.S. Go contact people who may be interested in refractometers. Schools as well.

    This line is gold. My opinion of abundance is from a local to you aspect. USD/Euro's are worth a ton more once converted. Though I'd save up to get out with family imo. You said corruption is rampant. Once you start making money, don't tell anyone. Extortion is a big part of corruption.

    I use to drink 5-8 mountain dews a day. I could see why I was sick all the time... Went completely cold turkey for about a month. I get pretty sick now from even drinking a 24oz sprite.

    Who has sold a web-based business? (Besides MJ?)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Could probably hire a VA from another country outside US/UK to manage the words. Frees up your time and saves you a bit of cash. Remember to make a non-compete form for someone if you hire them. Avoid Flippa. It's gone to shit in a handbag since the website flippers came in.

    Are you smarter than "The Other 98%"?

    I don't need to be smarter than any of them. I only have two goals involving them. Have them purchase from me or have them work for me for a nominal fee. (Hours for $$) Everyone is a genius at birth and as a child... The environment either helps it or crushes it.

    The death of the nuclear family

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    I am a fan of Polyamorous relationships. IE; Open relationships, as long as safe sex is practiced. There is nothing like being single though. I can really do whatever I want, as long as the bills are paid. On the flip, it is nice for someone to be there to hold you accountable.
