    Retirement Is Looking Bleak for Millennials...

    Same here in Italy. The situation is out of hand and I don't think we will ever get out of it...our fiscal default is coming any year now (I expected 5-10 around 6 months ago, but honestly I'm afraid it's more in the 4-7 range as of now). I don't know how well your country is doing (I think they...

    Yes! I have been observing through LinkedIn and more in general people who have a business / freelance expand upon their skills this way. I'm going to give a concrete example.

    I'm korean and I read 'The millionaire Fastlane'

    INTRO 
    Welcome Jinsol! My personal advice to every young guy is to learn English. I'm Italian and my English skills have been my greatest asset so far. Do not rely too much on schools to teach you English, they are obsessed with language purity and high-level knowledge of meaningless topics (who...

    What's the difference between Slackers and Go Getters? The answer may have to do w/ brain chemistry.

    Amazing thread, I loved reading every bit of it, thank you. This thread reminds me of a book that I meant to read and was related to diet and mood, but I forgot about it (the one time I don't write it down). All I remember is that it had "Mood" in the title, and it was suggested in this forum...

    Is it good to hire a professional to build a website?

    RANT 
    My suggestion: make the course and upload it to Udemy. See if you can get sales there, if you do you can use those money to get your own website built and offer a more in-depth course on the same topic that you can price higher, and all the earnings will be yours (unlike with Udemy).

    How much does a University's ranking matters?

    A friend of mine graduated at Bocconi and now works for JP Morgan, so this statement is definitely true, specific corporations hire from specific universities, I agree with FriendlyVillain. You can have fun in any size of city, as long as there are places where you can spend time together with...

    My country is the most anti-entrepreneurial country I know of (excluding situations of extreme poverty where no progress can be made because there aren't even the basics). Opening and operating a business is way too expensive, and the taxes are so high that even if you turn a nice profit half of...

    I'm having huge issues with biting my own nails, I just can't stop. I could quit just about anything else without any issue, at least for a prolonged amount of time, but I can't resist not biting my own nails for more than 24 hours, and that's a massive struggle already.

    What do you think are the most saturated markets?

    I read a quote on here (mentioned by @Andy Black I believe? I don't remember who the quote was from though) that said "a market is never saturated with a good product". Yes, there is a lot of competition on just about everything in this world, but if you are truly better than your competition...
