    Perpetually In First Gear

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Your life is too comfy and you don't want this bad enough. Try living in first gear when you're not able to provide for your family. Or you get fired from your job.

    Hey MJ & co. Why Is "Everyone Doing It" On NFTs? Is It The Real Deal?

    We are at the very, very beginning of blockchain technology starting to move into mainstream applications. Yes, there is a lot of speculation going on. Yes, there are a lot of fools that are throwing their money around in anything they can find. No, not everything will m00n or make you rich...

    Learn to flex your style. All personality traits are part of a spectrum. It's not 0 or 1 scale. If you start recognising that your style changes depending on context (e.g. having a small social gathering with 3 of your best friends is completely different from entering a party alone).

    Is it risky to import electrical goods from Ali Express?

    Your question is very general. Hence me being harsh. Are there people that import lamps from China and sell them on EU/US market? Yes of course. Is it risky to just pull a random lamp of AliExpress and sell it on the EU/US market? Yes of course.

    And for the love of god. Please stop using the Tulips metaphor. It is inaccurate, wrong and fed to you by mass media. Blockchain is a fundamentally new technology. A paradigm shift from centralisation to decentralisation. Not exactly comparable to a flower bulb.

    This is a good story. But you're buying gold because you're assuming/guesstimating that the price of gold will go up. This only happens when more people buy gold. How is this different from Bitcoin? You're calling gold 'frickin cheap'.. based on what exactly? And how is this forecast any...

    NOTABLE! EXECUTION 
    The way I always view it. I'd rather spend my time talking to somebody about their journey that somebody who can only talk about the end result. What went wrong, what went well. What are the (in hindsight) foolish things you did or didn't do. It's like a bad relationship. When it ends, you...

    EIP 1559 release is very, very close. This will fix some of the gas fee issues until ETH 2.0 launches. More network activity = more ETH burnt = less ETH available to be sold on the market. TX fees will become predictable as well which will further spurn the growth of DeFi.
