    How to deal with a teen who doesn't value traditional education

    I agree that school is clearly important and neglecting high school is a bad idea. School teaches more than just academia. Schooling teaches adaptation to new social situations, introduction to ideas possibly outside our comfort zone, and adherence to a set schedule. I guess the difference is in...

    How to deal with a teen who doesn't value traditional education

    Can you tell us a little bit more about EXACTLY what his outlook is? Do you know? I'm only 25 and haven't dealt with raising a child, let alone a teenager so I can't relate with you there. But I was his age around a decade ago and I still remember it clearly. When I was in high school, I loved...

    A Little Air - An Introduction from LA & A Thank You

    Haha, I've actually always wanted to learn houdini and nearly talked the ad agency into picking up a copy for me to play with. I know nothing about it but as a hobbyist magician the name captivated me immediately. I love the interesting way visual effects forces you to problem solve. Such logic...

    A Little Air - An Introduction from LA & A Thank You

    Do you do technical or practical effects? I've dabbled with some practical effects but it's really not my thing. I'm more into digital stuff. After Effects is my tool of choice, although I've played around in nuke and 3D Max.

    Create a webcam video. Make it 'private' and tag them in it. Then message them with the link (test this out with a dummy account to make sure you're doing it right.) In the video give them your proposal. Make sure to give your reasons.

    Should I HIRE HIM??? Employee with Entrepreneurial Experiences

    PEOPLE 
    Last summer I was trying to get an entry level job and my interviewers and I ended up chatting about management, marketing, etc. I never got the jobs, they all ended up calling me up after and asking why I "really" wanted the job. Based on my previous experience, skill-set, and personality they...

    My eBook - How I increased annual rental profit 150k in 2 years

    Once you've got some decent traffic, think about getting some video up there. Perhaps a video which gives some free tips/tricks/hacks to give them a taste.

    Ever see liquor stores with "5 Hour energy" at the checkout counter? That's for 'next morning recovery' by people making impulse buys. It would be very easy to break into this market. Are these BIG bottles or SMALL bottles? How big are the bottles? I bet a smaller bottle with enough pills for...

    What's your job ? What do you do?

    HOT! 
    Honestly, I didn't make a lot of money. Less than 40K/year at my highest point. A lot of stuff I did I could never show to anybody ever under an NDA. I did 90% of the work, we showed the client, and then we sent it to a finishing house who put the final touches on it and got all the credit. It...
