    I believe the future of NFTs are in gaming products once the stigma has been broken, but we'll see. Right now it just appears that everything is eroding and for good reason. The get rich quick from crypto/nft days after definitely over. Most people show up late (which is in the past year).

    It's only modern day slavery if you're doing something that doesn't bring value and you haven't harnessed your true potential. It's ok to have a job and use it as a stepping stone to get domain knowledge or save to start your biz. You have to work. Bills don't pay themselves until you've...

    What are your thoughts on going all in crypto in this Recession?

    Did MJ release any of his books in your country? It sounds like you don't know much about the ideology. :hilarious: Crypto and stocks are slowlane for those who don't have a bunch of capital. Build a business that provides value to people and solves problems first. It's just high risk...

    What would you tell your 18 or 25 year old self?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    I'd tell myself, "you are smart enough to learn game development on your own" and take "school seriously". Devour books on coding and game development (Since no YouTube or course platforms in late-90s). Learn C++, Java and then C# in early 2000s.

    So WTF are NFTs all about? Buying JPGs? Why can't you just right-click save? Is this a giant ponzi? Far from it...

    I have a more interesting video that actually digs into everything with more depth. I'm not against NFTs or crypto but I see valid points which has me concerned. Until a house cleaning is done it will never reach the heights crypto bros claim it will go to. View...

    Something simple: I just paid $22 for a Chicken Teriyaki Plate + a side of Gyoza. This seems outrageous to me. I'm a terrible cook and I live alone. This was at a Mom and Pop Teriyaki shop in a Seattle suburb.

    Is having a robot read TMF on a YouTube video legal?

    Yeah that reads like, "FU but I'm sorry". Some folks just don't care which is crappy.

    I believe most phones have voice recording applications for this sort of thing. iPhone has "Voice Memo" and it sits in the Utilities suite with Compass, Measure and Calculator.

    You could've just said "I'm a thief with no shame" and spared me from reading this paragraph. And not everyone does what you do. Don't include us all.

    How much are/were you making at your slowlane job?

    I am over $40 an hour and just got a 15% raise. "Instant amnesia" like that line in Unscripted. I know I'll have to leave that fake comfort soon. (I was making less than $24 an hour pre-2020)

    I agree that its too early. Although timing may be different in my opinion. In the U.S. at least we saw the GDP had decreased at an annual rate of 1.5 percent in the first quarter of 2022. I believe we will be down in the 2nd QTR which is at the end of the month. That will officially start...

    Not if goes to 9k. I stress everyone to take caution when trying to time this bottom. It could be more of trying to catch falling knives. No one knows... Heck, its already 184 away from being in the 18k realm as of my writing. If Michael Saylor dumps it will be even lower, I'm sure a margin...

    Girlfriend lost her job as a store manager, she's still a student and I really want to help her

    There is no shame in a 9 to 5 and honest work. In MJ's 3rd book he gives criteria on when you should quit your job, but for the time being you need to pay bills and should work. Anyhow, you should help her find another gig and by also giving her a copy of The Millionaire Fastlane, Unscripted...
