    https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/pages/do-i-go-to-college-dropout/ TL;DR: don't ask a bunch of internet strangers you don't know. No one can make that decision for you.

    if there was an adult version of StumbleUpon based on your fetishes would you use it?

    HOT! 
    I heard from my uncle's friend's older brother's cat that most porn users don't really go into a site thinking "I wonder what's new today?". You usually go in knowing, then get out after about 10 minutes (average time on a porn site based on research done by PornHub).

    Why Startups Fail (Hint: It's the #1 Commandment)

    EXECUTION 
    The "Lack of business model" amazes me. I've met a lot of "startup entrepreneurs" who want to build things and their business model is literally "get bought out".

    Is free shipping always a good thing?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Im selling an item for less than 20 and its very light. I feel guilty charging $4-7 for shipping so I just eat the costs and offer free shipping. It eats into my margins pretty bad...but I compensated by adding a few things with the product, which allowed me to raise the overall price.

    New Social Network Blowing Up (Exciting!)

    It seems like the initial version of FB pre-ads. It sounds like they're also marketing to not become "sell-outs" to ads and companies... What's their business plan...? I also saw this comment on the page and thought it was funny "does one need a business model? can't they just update code in...

    Why I Chose to Go to College

    RANT 
    Money: Money can be gotten by anyone. It's true that the higher paying jobs require degrees sometimes, but most would value experience more than schooling. 4 years of experience VS 0 experience + degree w/ some internship. I can almost bet the 4 year will win out almost every single time. Also...

    Why do so many people think advertising is evil?

    MARKETING 
    I'm saying there must some good copy or something mystical at play to get that many people to buy. Ohhh...I thought the 10% was too high. Thanks for the correction.

    Why do so many people think advertising is evil?

    MARKETING 
    The product sucks, without a doubt...but if you can get roughly 2000 sales (I got 2000 because i read somewhere like 10% of your customers leave reviews on Amazon) when you have such horrible reviews...that's gotta be some great advertising at play.

    Regrets, how do you cope?

    MINDSET 
    I realize that there's nothing I can do about what already happened (unless someone wants to call Doc Brown), and try not to make that mistake again. If it's something I can get a second chance at, I use the regret and channel that into motivation to turn that second chance into a success.

    EXECUTION 
    I messed up big, Long story short, I thought I did a good enough QC. But I didn't. Literally ALL my products had some sort of noticeable scratch or chip on them. I've contacted my manufacturer overseas and I'm hoping this gets resolved ASAP. One thing that came out of this was that I started...
