    Enneagram Test: What are you?

    HOT! 
    Type 1 reporting in. Although I didn't take that test. The Enneagram has helped me figure out why I do the things I do in life. It has really helped me become a better person and treat others better. I hope you guys are not just taking this test and thinking, "That's cool. I'm a type 7." And...

    The consequences of this massive cash injection

    HOT! 
    I read your post correctly. "Facing" is present tense. It sounds like you meant to say we will be facing deflation in the future. I don't agree with that at all. I think we will have more inflation due to all the gov't money printing.

    You think we have been having deflation in the US? Do you know what deflation is?

    Yes you are correct. Can you explain how this period is "all but normal?"

    'Parasite' won the Oscar for "Best Picture." I couldn't be more disgusted.

    HOT! 
    1917 Should have won all the awards. (My biased opinion since I haven't seen Parasite.) But 1917 was so unique. I was very impressed.

    Toilet issues

    I doubt the average consumer cares about this at all. I know I don't.

    Toilet issues

    Boom. Create a toilet that has a "cleaning mode" button on the side. Once clicked the water raises all the way to the brim and then injects the cleaner into the water. Then after 30 minutes (or however long the cleaner takes) the toilet flushes itself. If someone really has to use the toilet...

    No idea what to do

    IDEA 
    Exactly my point. The only thing I currently use from high school is grammar/writing. And I am a terrible writer. I don't remember or use any of the biology/physics/history/social studies/literature/algebra/calculus/geometry/P.E. etc. that I was forced to learn. What a waste of my time so that I...

    No idea what to do

    IDEA 
    I don't agree with most of this. I wish I had focused more on business when I was 14 instead of wasting my time in biology class. I didn't start learning about business until I was almost 19. Way too late in my opinion considering everything in life is business. You need to understand that...

    Uncommon books that you'd recommend?

    BOOKS 
    The Way to Willpower by Henry Hazlitt. Was written 100 years ago by Henry Hazlitt who is a famous Austrian economist. I haven't read a better book on willpower yet.

    What can I do to invest now as a teen?

    You should invest in yourself until you are dead. I don't think bonds would be a good investment for you. Bonds are for old people with a lot of cash wanting to retire. You are not that. You should invest in yourself. Spend that money learning more (outside of school). Developing some type of...

    WeWork's $21.1 billion worth question

    How can you say WeWork has done anything right? They are on the verge of bankruptcy. They were hoping for an IPO to raise more money but that fell through. If it weren't for investors with deep pockets they would be long gone. Wework lost over $2 Billion dollars in 2018 with a company valuation...

    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)

    HOT! CRYPTO CHAT 
    This graph is very deceiving because of the y axis. There doesn't seem to be any immediate coordination between halving and Bitcoin's price going up. Check out the prices listed on Wikipedia. There was a 900% price jump in 5 days in 2010. Had nothing to do with halving. On Dec. 17th 2017...

    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)

    HOT! CRYPTO CHAT 
    I haven't seen any data that supports this. From what I've seen the halving had little effect in the past. Can you show us where you got the 10x number from? Also wouldn't the market already know about the halving and have that priced in theoretically?

    Should billionaires be taxed out of existence?

    OFF-TOPIC TAXES | REGS 
    I hate when people want to tax the rich. My coworker heard on the news about some new tax proposed for the rich and said, "I don't care, doesn't affect me." This is how the average person views it. They think it won't affect them but it will. The person who pays your salary is probably rich and...

    Anyone Have Experience With LASIK Eye Surgery?

    HEALTH 
    Yea. I have decided LASIK is too risky for me. Curious. What are the risks with glasses? Contacts? As far as I can tell the only health risk for glasses is the fact that it forces your eyes into a fixed lens that they must adjust in, causing eye strain. Contacts do the same and there's more...

    Anyone Have Experience With LASIK Eye Surgery?

    HEALTH 
    From what I've read I wouldn't do it. (I've thought about it). Too risky for me. If you really dive in you'll find some eyebrow raising concerns. Dr. Waxler is the Dr. that approve LASIK for the FDA. He is now a huge opponent of it, claiming that he was duped originally. Some stats I found...
