    Headline from an article in the Atlantic: "To Play or Not to Play With Your Kid? It shouldn’t be this hard to decide." Never underestimate how much companies can monetize anxiety and neurosis in today's world. :rage::poo:

    What do you think about live customer service interactions vs. automated customer service interactions? The last 2-3 years have been overwhelming with all the automated reminders, follow ups, surveys, text messages, rate us nicely, leave a five star review, all that jazz. Regrettably, it's...

    You're basically describing a pretty killer episode of Black Mirror called "Nosedive". And today's China apparently. Scary stuff. Can't link to the actual episode since it's paywalled, but here's a plot summary...

    Do you know what you’re doing with your money?

    INVESTING 
    Shouldn't have to be. Even Wells Fargo popped up with 5% on savings accounts last time I logged in. I bought a handful of CDs @ 5.x% last year and my Schwab money market fund is currently paying 5.x%. Really?!? I've had four lines with Tello for two years and never heard that before. That's...

    Such a great show. Two minutes of monumental over the top BS with a completely straight face => $4M annual contract. Great job, Don.

    How come? Is running away a known problem? I only saw Shop Pay for the first time a few weeks ago and hesitated for awhile not knowing WTF it meant.

    Here's a topic where you can pour mountains of money down the lawyer toilet. Patent attorneys will talk for endless billable hours while saying nothing definitive. :rage: Anyways, go to the source for starters: What is a trademark? Usage by the existing company provides limited rights. You...

    eCom - Bag Sales

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    The KS campaign is from 2020. Eternity in the fashion space. Wouldn't count on any of it being useful. Losing money on the site and shutting it down seems to contradict that. Has it crossed your mind that your friend dropped $12K, lost money and shutdown from knowing little about the space...

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Let me get this straight... You don't want to publish the Kickstarter campaign for a product sold by a friend with a website that shut down and is no longer selling the product but for some reason thinks you should buy it for $12,000 even though it was clearly unprofitable and somehow you still...

    Don't Let the Fastlane Devolve Into Side Hustles

    Agreed. She does have that vibe. I've got two young kids and like the idea of helping someone retire at the moment. It's the entrepreneurial circle of life. Plus I'm fine with driving in the passing lane at this stage of life and taking the off ramp sooner than someone younger. Happy to cheer...

    Reading through this thread for the 3rd or 6th or 11th time since it's a great observation and well worth thinking about over time. That doesn't make it universally applicable for all people at all stages though. There isn't a dead broke 19YO anywhere with no practical skills, business...

    Don't Let the Fastlane Devolve Into Side Hustles

    What's your impression of Codie? She seems pretty straightforward with minimal hype. I've seen a handful of her videos and attended one conference call. Useful from an aspirational type perspective and led me to a handful of other resources for acquiring a business. That approach is hardly the...

    Was that true in the past for you? I watched this much-too-long explanation about why the sound editing is all f**ked up on films from the past few years because of the overload of technology and different platforms that make the sound mixing difficult. They started by trying to explain why the...

    How to attract users with low purchase b2c offers (ballpark $10/mo)?

    The magazines we have are a mix for the kids and general purpose science/world/geography ones like Wired, National Geographic and Oyla. Actually, something like Oyla and Omni are good science/tutoring/homeschooling examples assuming there are specialty DVDs for education, learning, etc. Probably...

    Hey, Millenials and Gen Z regularly use CC (Closed Caption) for movies and shows. Did their ears stop working in young age?

    Ah, I thought Skool was solely pre-recorded course content for some reason. Interactive makes more sense.

    Great stuff, @ZCP. Lotta good lessons in that short clip. Do you know whether they already had the Skool content or created it for the platform?
