Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)
HOT! CRYPTO CHATThe kind that shortsightedly thought bitcoin was a fad that would crash and burn, they were still worth next to nothing when the hard drive crashed. Also have you ever seen a landscaper's garden or a mechanic's car? It is the same with sysadmin's home systems...- paulmp

Is it ethical to copy a business?
You can copy a business model, there is very little point in reinventing a wheel that is working perfectly fine elsewhere... what you can't copy is their words, ads, photos, videos, IP, trademarks, branding etc. If it was illegal or unethical to copy a business model we'd only have 1 option...- paulmp

Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)
HOT! CRYPTO CHATYep, had everything on there... I've recovered most of it... of course the most valuable part (monetarily) is completely corrupted. I've tried everything. It is gone. I'm ok with it most of the time. Although I could really do with just 2-3 bitcoin at the moment.- paulmp

Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)
HOT! CRYPTO CHATExcept anyone smart enough to recover the drive would also be able to recover my other private data and photography work.. which strangely enough, the bitcoin would not be enough for me to part with the entire library of work. We're talking well over 1 million photos, many projects and then...- paulmp

Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)
HOT! CRYPTO CHAT*sigh* I have a dead 4 drive raid system (lightning strike, killed all 4 drives)... on that raid is my very secure wallet with at *least* 250 bitcoin in it... I bought well over 2500 bitcoin in 2010, bought a bunch of useless stuff with it. I now have a *very* expensive paper weight. Before...- paulmp

Flippa Listing Research
Hey All, I'm looking at a listing on flippa at the moment, something seems a bit "too good to be true" on their numbers, not just their proclaimed earnings but also their facebook ads. I'm wondering how people do research on these types of listings? They don't have a facebook page, yet claim...- paulmp

Why import from China? When you can export to China!
There are a few of us working on something along those lines, some of the red tape is difficult, but will be worth the effort in the long run.- paulmp

Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)
HOT! CRYPTO CHATAbsolutely dead serious. I bought the BTC when it was worth next to nothing. The wallet has just over 200 BTC in it. I've already spent thousands on recovering data from it, it was part of a RAID setup that went haywire and managed to crash all the drives in it. I managed to recover nearly all...- paulmp

HOT! SIDE HUSTLEWhile I dare not speak for the entire forum, in my short experience with it, I've found that people's BS detection meters are finely tuned, so you may not get far with your material here. The other thing that this forum is about (from my understanding) is creating real, lasting, value. Which...- paulmp

Found this thread very informative on Reddit, this guy built a startup from scratch and recorded it / live broadcast it with Twitch. This means you can watch the entire process from start to 100K users, as we all know it is process that matters, not necessarily the outcome at first. Building a...- paulmp

How do you deal with disbelievers?
MINDSET RANTYou know the best way to prove someone wrong... go and do what they say is impossible. Don't waste time arguing or trying to convince them, it is a waste of your time and energy, go do the work. Not the most noble motivation / "why" in the world, but it certainly works.- paulmp

F*ck This Guy - Tai Lopez
FUNNYI think for me... I would rather be broke & not violate my own ethics than to follow the example of Tai Lopez. If there is anything to learn from Tai is what not to do.. or how not to create value. Also I am not saying that in order to become wealthy you have to do unethical things, that is a...- paulmp
