    Greater Age - Lesser Belief

    Currently I'm working 2 (minimum wage, woot!) jobs in order to save up enough money to move out of the country (to England). It's quite the eye opener seeing the reaction of people when I tell them that I am done with college to pursue a business. To put a little background info in, I'm 19...

    Who Here Is a Web Programmer?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Should have put *web* programmer in the title! :P This doesn't answer what your question turned into but I'd definitely consider myself an application programmer (C#/Java mostly). I know a fair bit of web programming (ASP.NET) although in terms of optimization I can't say I know much, able to...

    Anonymity on the Internet

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    This is an interesting question. Initially I thought why would true anonymity matter but the more time I kind of let it sink it I started thinking of other situations. Give me a day or two to think about this and I'll definitely post back. It's interesting...

    Hello.. Finally registered

    I wouldn't consider this the "real" road to success. It's simply a matter of opinion. There are people who would 9-5 jobs who love their jobs and can spend their time how they wish outside of work. In my mind they are also successful. They may not be wealthy but that isn't necessarily a key...

    How the Freak Did This Happen?

    Anyone Here Ever Taken a Spin Class?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Yeah, it's really all about just getting a little bit of time on it then it starts to feel better. I'm not much of a biker but during the summer I go on 50+ mile rides for fun and the first week or two getting back into it isn't the most comfortable time. haha So, get a comfortable seat for...

    Future of Social 2.0 Web Platforms.. specifically MySpace

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    The attractiveness of MySpace is not the fact that you can have instant communication. Or any social platform in that case. Instant messengers (IM) have been around for a long time, and at least all the people I talk to they hate using the IM on websites like FB compared to AIM, MSN, etc. The...

    Life Altering Choices - Yours?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I've had quite a few (true) LAC. One the effects of it (whether good or bad!) won't hit me for a few years down the road, and another will be executed at the end of summer! 1. Finally letting into my friends constantly telling me to play soccer in high school. Turns out to be my most favorite...

    Haha, I was going to "degrade" him for wearing a Bayern Munich shirt. Good we point out that this community doesn't like either of his shirts. :) Anyways as far as pictures go: Working, Not sure why I think the "best" place to keep the pen is in my mouth. :rofl: And yes... It's a...

    Angel Investing ... Phantom Evaluations ...

    That's one thing I find amazing about Fanocks. Personally I don't agree with that way of thinking either, but it's definitely working for him so far. I have to feel like everyone is getting what they put their money into. Obviously if they pay it they feel like they get their moneys worth...

    Really great guy, speech on Time Management

    MINDSET 
    Haha, I was about to post this last night! Anyways it truly is a great speech. Was actually about to watch it again this morning just to reinforce it. I really see everyone benefitting from it because it doesn't only talk about procrastinators (me!) but just getting the important stuff done...

    Hello everybody

    I don't entirely agree with this. You still must focus on something you're passionate about or more than likely you're doomed to mediocrety. While, I'm sure there are plenty of examples contrary to this. For most people in order to work on something with the type of dedication you need to...

    Poker: How you can get started, succeed, and many myths and facts

    HOT! 
    Re: Poker: How you can get started, succeed, and many myths and f How annoying! I've wanted to try this out and after "getting the hang of it" with play money I decided I wanted to move on to real money. Come to find out though it won't accept my debit card, nor my friends. Anyone willing to...

    Which language to choose?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I like the idea of using it to get started because, being a higher level language it is easier\quicker to learn. Obviously that has draw backs in terms of speed but until a website becomes very popular than creating a tool that people actually use (in my opinion) is more important. Also for me...

    Which language to choose?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I've just started to look at ASP.NET and in terms of productivity I am starting to think it may be a good option. Now, I haven't used it for any more than a couple weeks at this point so I can only see the productivity benefit, and I haven't dug into it deep enough to find true disadvantages of...

    VIPWithMe.com Status Update

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Honestly it's just something that comes with time. The more you practice\use it the easier it becomes to "imagine" and implement something like that, that only appears to be complicated. I've had that epiphany myself and in my computer science classes here at school I've seen many who have...

    Favourite alcohol beverage?

    :thumbsup: As far as anything being under 21 and rarely drink I don't really know of many good drinks. I just know jack and coke is the only thing I have actually enjoyed while drinking. haha

    Dealing with the Truth: in Business or in life

    MINDSET 
    If that's the case then the color blind person would never be wrong (or lying) when he says "this is green". His green may not appear the same as yours but he still learned the color he sees as green. And I couldn't possibly describe a color to someone so it'd be impossible to lie about...
