There are a few YouTube channels with lots of subscribers that do nothing but call out other you tube channels for being "fake"....here are some examples that I've see: "fake natty"...."fake weights".... "fake black...

    My 600lb Life: Addiction, Enabling, More (RANT)

    NOTABLE! 
    What blows my mind with the subjects on this show is that their state isn't possible if they got out of bed everyday. There is some point in their past they went from getting up, to sitting 100% of the time. Not even to use the bathroom! The worst part is the enablers in my opinion. I think...

    Nominations/Vote: Book Discussion (New Poll Posted!)

    BOOKS 
    Zero to One is a great book. I think an analysis of how to apply its principles in a more boot strap manner would be good outcome of a forum reading. This book I found to be very enjoyable to read, really interesting and stimulating, but difficult to act on due to the Silicon Valley start up...

    Nominations/Vote: Book Discussion (New Poll Posted!)

    BOOKS 
    This book I've read about half way, but very interesting. The focus of the book is mindset, subconscious, and limiting beliefs. One major thesis is that we humans need goals to strive for, and we achieve them trough trial and error using a feedback loop. Originally published in 1960 by a...

    Blogging for Profit (With Legendary GOLD Follow Up Posts)

    GOLD! 
    Just launched my first post of my behavior and influence "blog". I'm approaching this more as a redirection of my attention and focus into something more productive than as a fastlane business. I have become addicted to the internet over time and have been very active on message boards. The...

    Think Big, and Then Think Bigger Than That.

    GOLD! 
    When did Zuckerberg realize he had a billion dollar idea in Facebook? You can't know what ideas are capable of becoming "big" until they hit the market. Like Duck Dynasty.... duck sounds? Really? If you said you were going to build a duck call empire most people would dismiss it immediately...

    The Luxury Strategy

    HOT! 
    Bump: Payless sells $30 shoes for $600 to fashion snobs... Payless literally invented a new brand name and sold their $20-$30 shoes for hundreds at some fashion event. They plan to use the footage in an ad campaign. "Payless? no no, these are 'Palessi'."

    Get ready for automation. Do not fight it, yet embrace it.

    I have had thoughts about what it would take to enter the space. The barrier to entry is high for labor automation because it takes teams of engineers and a lot of money and testing to get equipment like this working well. That means deep pockets. I recently have seen adds for irobots mopping...

    How deep does this "FAKE GURU" market actually go?

    HOT! 
    To add to my post above, I have huge respect for MJ for not using his books as a disguised info product sales pitch like a few books I've encountered.

    EXECUTION 
    So make money selling advice on how to make money? Are you going to be honest and tell your readers that to be like you they should sell advice on how to make money too? It just seems so fraudulent.

    Idea needing feedback: keeping people accountable

    IDEA 
    Mini habits is the only long term solution. You have to make the workout stupid easy. If they visualize the workout, and it's hard in their mind, they feel that pain and effort as if they are actually doing it. As a result, they don't do it. So whatever workout it is, it must be one that when...

    S & P 500/Dow Jones Etc - am i missing something?

    INVESTING 
    And this is compounded by the fact that many had to tap into their 401ks and pay insane taxes, where if they had kept it in a taxable brokerage they would have only needed to pay a lower long term capital gains tax. 401ks incentivize you to keep working longer and punish you if hard times force...

    I would reform education in America. I volunteered at some low income charter schools after school programs when I was in college and I really saw some tragic situations.

    Survivorship bias: Is it Unscripted?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    The only way to counter survivorship bias is to also examine those that did not survive. For anyone wanting to understand human bias better, I recommend "Fooled by Randomness" by Nassim Taleb. One of a handful of books that changed the way I look at things. Humans cannot properly comprehend the...
