    The Forum's Thoughts on Veganism?

    HEALTH 
    "Your black!" said the pot to the kettle. The only time I've ever encountered a situation in which veganism was appropriate was when I was at a Zen Buddhist retreat, who embraced it from a philosophical viewpoint. The roshi, while he did explain the reasoning also stressed it was a personal...

    The Forum's Thoughts on Veganism?

    HEALTH 
    People have been killing animals for food for centuries. In fact, the consumption of meat is credited as a major reason why the human brain developed the way it did. This comic is less about eating meat and more about the way domestic livestock is treated. Veganism is another religion. For...

    The Forum's Thoughts on Veganism?

    HEALTH 
    One more time, how do you know someone is a vegan? Don't worry, he'll tell you. The only advice I follow is, "Eat food. Not too much, mostly plants." People new to veganism, vegetarian, paleo, keto, all fail to recognize a simple fact. The reason those plans work is because you're paying...

    Grappling with doubts over age and situation

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Colonel Sanders started KFC when he was 62. The only time it's truly too late is when you're dead. Oh yeah, go see a doctor for depression and anxiety.

    Is it worth it to pay for someone to redo my resume?

    NOTABLE! 
    To that end, I recommend http://devcareerboost.com/. It's aimed at developers, but it pretty much applies to everyone. At $200, it might be a bit pricey. Disclaimer: I occasionally guest post on the creator's blog, but there is no affiliate program.

    Is it worth it to pay for someone to redo my resume?

    NOTABLE! 
    Yes. Most business owners do not write their own copy or design their own brochures. You are selling yourself. Don't go cheap, though, expect to pay between $300 - $500 on a high quality resume. It could be that his energy would be better spent on mastering interviewing techniques. Separation...

    In The Mean Time?

    MINDSET 
    Freelance or eCommerce? The former might work, but the latter, considering @el_hombre123's comment that he is "dead broke" may not be viable.

    In The Mean Time?

    MINDSET 
    What other perspective is there? You need food to eat, clothes to wear, a place to live, and access to the Internet. Since you don't have savings, do not have investments you can draw dividend income, and don't have any assets that generate value (yet), you need to get someone to pay you for...

    Motivation is not necessary for success.

    In The Mean Time?

    MINDSET 
    Get a job, seriously, save as much as you can, work in your down time. If you don't have the funds in reserve to pay for yourself, then you need to work. This is a job, though, not a career.

    Ayn Rand and Capitalism

    MINDSET 
    You're making the same argument in support of capitalism that people who support communism make. "The pure form of X" works. Capitalism the best foundation for an economic system because it uses greed and ambition, but it's not perfect. People have taken advantage of it and harmed or killed...

    Freedom vs. Children

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    Holy crap, did you have a bad childhood? Children are probably one of the most visceral forms of "you get out what you put in". If your is lazing about until 27, demanding to go to college, and then leaving you, I think I'd say you have utterly failed as a parent to raise your child. Children...

    Improving Yourself, Everyday. What Are Your Habits?

    MINDSET 
    Accepting myself. Seriously, one of the assumptions of "self improvement" is that there is something to be fixed or improved on. I personally found it a lot better for my mindset to adopt the Buddhist philosophy that we are complete and whole as we are, but we tend to forget that. I have adopted...

    Found this on Hacker News, it's post by someone who created a startup working 45 minutes a day while deployed to Iraq. http://mattmazur.com/2016/01/04/building-a-startup-in-45-minutes-per-day-while-deployed-to-iraq/ The next time you think you don't have the time to launch your own company...

    Freedom vs. Children

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    A basic internet search would answer that for you. However, homeschooling is not a niche as you may think. You need to find a segment in that market and go after them. Let's drive this to its logical conclusion. In approximately 5 billion years, the sun will run out fuel and it swell up into a...

    What Sacrifices you have made...

    First, I've made no sacrifices. Currently, I am only interested and not committed. Second, focusing on sacrifices is counter productive. You mentioned, for example, that you don't have a girlfriend. I don't think that's related to being an entrepreneur. Sure, some well-known people like MJ and...

    WTF: Robert Greene's writing in "The 50th law" is insufferable

    BOOKS 
    Of course not, if someone did live by all 48 laws, that person would need to be screened for psychopathy. "Only for knowledge and defense, never attack"
