    Is this a pain point for US-based folks?

    IDEA 
    Thank you all for the contribution and feedback. Yes, CapitalOne shopping can do this for Capital One branded credit cards, but not for any others like AMEX or Chase I created a very simple visual example below of what the search bar would try to do Good question, I have thought of at least...

    Is this a pain point for US-based folks?

    IDEA 
    Ever since I moved to the US I've been (positively) overwhelmed with the amazing credit card offers and points that are available here. I noticed that both bank and credit card accounts offer discounts or cashback for various websites. However, I've found myself having to log in to multiple...

    On my way to fastlane. Business degree obsolete?

    IDEA 
    I'll start with some well-intended tough love and say that if you are truly on the way to the fastlane with the business, frankly you must be out of your mind to abandon that and go back to med school. Unless one really, really, wants to become a physician and help patients, which is fine, but...

    Thinking about Starting a Car Rental Business

    IDEA 
    I've had similar thoughts in disorganized places, for example renting a bike in Mexico. Just being moderately professional and having a working website would make you stand out. But is that one location going to be enough to make a large profit, or will you end up offering yourself just a day...

    How to Create a $2k+/mo Passive Income Website in 30 Days (or Less)

    GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION 
    Thank you much for providing your entire process. I'm kind of shocked that you can sell a product for over $50 that takes so little effort to create. At the very least this will make a fun side project!

    Entrepreneurship while Studying - Decision - Advise needed

    IDEA 
    I would have loved it if when I was at Uni I had the opportunity to cut my teeth at business. Even though this avenue is unlikely to make him rich, given that few ideas at this stage pan out, he will have the benefit of taking a solid shot at business with minimal risk (I assume there is...

    Fed Up With Your Country? Where Is Left to Go?

    HOT! 
    The main ones for me are: 1) London has a culture that normalizes sharing a house with others even if you are in your 30s and 40s. I've gotten too old for this shit. For the money that I pay to share a house in London I can get a nice studio in Miami. 2) Even pepper spray is illegal in the UK...

    Fed Up With Your Country? Where Is Left to Go?

    HOT! 
    This thread is spot on, even if terribly depressing to confirm that most countries are getting less free, not more. Wanting to leave the UK, I've spent a ton of time trying to find a country with the best combination of my favorite attributes. Thus, I will be moving to Florida as soon as the...

    To Build a Webiste or To Pay Someone ? - Wix vs SS vs Shopify vs [etc] - eCommerce Platform

    There is no need to spend a lot of money on custom work at this stage and take that from someone who charges people money to make websites for them. Shopify with a good theme (or paying a cheap SE Asia freelancer to set it up nicely for you) is perfect for where you are at. You can...

    Would you work a job that you loved to do? An alternative to the fastlane

    MINDSET 
    It's a very interesting discussion. There are a number of questions one can ask in this dilemma: If I was in an industry where I can be making $200,000-$400,000 while being 30-40 year old with a day job, and spend my 30's having fun and traveling, would that be such a bad alternative to the...

    Having Children...Pros and Cons?

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    29, no kids, no regrets nor do I plan to have any for at least 10 more years. At the core of it having kids is a biological drive and an emotional decision. I'd say no matter what opinions/arguments are presented, if you want to have kids it will be clear and almost unavoidable.

    The future of work: remote?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Chris is really pushing the envelope of remote work and has done a tremendous job at marketing his business. However, the predictions are certainly overoptimistic, or at least apply only to software companies. The company that I work in (finance/analytics) has admitted multiple times publicly...

    Be picky when choosing clients, even when you're starting out

    SIDE HUSTLE RANT 
    Great point and been there myself, but it's one of these things that it's easier said than done. When you are starting out and you have been crawling through mud to get just one client, saying no because you are picky is like starving and saying no to food.
