    Advice on Student Loan? what to do

    MINDSET 
    That depends entirely on what you want. From a financial standpoint focused purely on yourself there would be no reason to not let your parents pay off the debt. 0% interest compared to 0.12% and the option to get a loan at 0% approved for furniture etc. later on. For your parents though, this...

    HUSTLE your way up!!! TEENS, no more EXCUSES! EXAMPLE INCLUDED!

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    One thing I would add is to not only check what the item is selling for, but also what it sold for in the past. Ebay allows you to take a look at the sales of the last three months, you can even see for which prices it didn't sell. That way you get a really nice idea of how long you are going to...

    How to Lower Cholesterol?

    HEALTH 
    In regards to your second study, yes trans fats are bad, no arguing here. But your study also said that "diets aimed at reducing the risk of coronary heart disease should be low in both trans and saturated fatty acids." Since only the abstract of your first study is freely available I can't...

    How to Lower Cholesterol?

    HEALTH 
    Okay, some of these points were already mentioned but I'll revisit them anyways. Your main focus should lay on your fiber intake, meaning whole foods. Nuts, seeds, beans, greens, vegetables and especially whole grains like oatmeal, brown rice etc. (like you are already doing). Why is that the...

    fitness related book for teenagers

    PUBLISHING 
    I believe most parents have quite a history of telling their kids to eat their veggies and it could prove quite difficult for them to actually convince their children to change their lifestyle. From my experience there are also a lot of parents, which are opposed to lifting weights because of...

    Sitting 5 hours = Smoking 24 cigarettes

    HEALTH 
    - a small daily dosage of aspirin prevents cancer It might slow cancer because less nutrients get transported to the cancer cells (and all other cells). Might be an idea if you already have cancer but IMHO doesn't sound like the nicest thing you can do to your body. Even certain antioxidants...

    Rudimentary Explanation of Basic Financial Concepts (Ch. 37)

    That's pretty nice breakdown (learned the term principal) I'm no expert on this, but as I understend it, bond prices and interest rates have an inverse relationship. Say you buy a bond which is carrying a 10% coupon for $1000 and afterwards the interest rates go up to 12% Suddenly your bond...

    Charging More?

    MARKETING 
    That's a pretty nice point actually, I never thought about it that way. But it probably happens a lot, "Why should I pay him $100 an hour, when I make less and have that and that degree" I believe the easiest way to make more money is through upsells. Of course the numbers will vary depending...

    People are sheep..

    HOT! MINDSET 
    No true scotsman fallacy here. What I meant with "truly can not be proven" is, you don't lack the methods of detection (for example your telescope is not accurate enough yet) but there is no way your argument can be either proven or disproven. If I say, there is an undetecable entity, with no...

    Not relating this to the discussion at hand, but if something truly can not be proven, you might as well ignore it/assume it doesn't exist. It won't have an impact on anything

    Do you regularly make smoothies?

    I'm really stunned by the amount of people here, for which a smoothie isn't a mixture of strawberry and banana with extra sugar. I use a recipe from Dr Rhonda Patrick (check her out on youtube for the most in detail approach on preventing disease and aging, I've found so far) 8 large kale...

    Is TMF 2.0 coming soon?

    HOT! 
    It's not an updated version of TMF but a whole new book, I doubt there will be many changes in different editions of the original, maybe some added stories from the forum now and then.

    Update: Change in Attitude (And where my Gold Thread went)!

    EXECUTION 
    I've heard this great quote, don't remeber who it's from "One of anything is really nothing" I guess it all depends on how important it is that there is an employee present, if you can't do it on your own if need be, you should get a second one, maybe both on partial time so it evens out to one...

    Where did intentional iteration go?

    RANT 
    I think it has to do with the amount of money people want to make. If you can live the life of your dreams with 5-10 million or less and do it in a couple years with an online business, there isn't much incentive to build a franchise over the next 20 years to make a billion dollars. Also I...

    Banned Hashtags on Instagram

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Well, I'm glad to stand corrected then. The abuse potential would have been really scary. Still I think it's a nice idea, to regularly check your hashtags. As you said Lleix, they sometimes disable them only for a couple of days (mostly if they get spammed with pornographic material).

    Banned Hashtags on Instagram

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    What I meant is that I haven't seen the result if somebody else posts the hashtag. I know for sure that your post won't get listed under the banned or semi-banned hashtag. And from my experience it seemed that it also took an awful lot of time to get listed under the regular hashtags, if I got...
