    Are You Profiting off the BITCOIN wave?

    HOT! INVESTING 
    I started accepting bitcoin in a few of my web businesses back in the spring, and I was just accumulating it. I wasn't paying too much attention the price, just wanted to accumulate a nice pile of BTC as a way of diversifying. Although at these prices it's hard not to sell, so I've been...

    Ignoring this Brian Tracy rule cost me over $400,000

    File under "not my proudest moment", but I was telling a friend about this on the phone earlier today and I decided to blog it: There are two kinds of “success coachesâ€, those that are speaking from real world business experience and those whose real world experience consists solely of...

    The Secret

    HOT! MINDSET 
    The often overlooked antecedent to 99% of the PMA/LoA/etc is Maxwell Maltz's Psycho-cybernetics. I wish I read it 20 years ago. I think all of the pillars if this body of work (Napoleon Hill, Joseph Murphy, Wallace D Wattles, Maltz) basically point in the same direction: conditioning ones...

    The Big Collapse

    HOT! INVESTING 
    I had never heard of him until now, looks pretty interesting. David Stockman in his (exhaustively long but amazing) "Great Deformation" frequently quips that wall st. insiders and policy makers continually reacted to the financial crisis like it was "a contagion that arrived on a comet out of...

    The Big Collapse

    HOT! INVESTING 
    I think the least bombastic / sensationalist / tin-foil-hat site in this space is Chris Martenson's PeakProsperity.com which basically always returns to some pretty simple math to demonstrate two things: what we consider "business as usual" is not sustainable; and that the next 20 years will NOT...

    Money Makes you Happier

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    I remember the first time I ever got a decent payout from a venture, walking to the bank with a certified check for a quarter-million in my pocket, something happened which I found very curious at the time: I didn't feel any different. Sure I was happy, in a good mood and everything - but I...

    Looking for a good internet marking book.

    A friend of mine who does that for a living tells me to stick with the classics, forget most of the internet marketing books, but read the original defining works on marketing and advertising: Claude Hopkins "Scientific Advertising", Robert Collier, David Ogilvy and he always hammers home to...

    Are You Profiting off the BITCOIN wave?

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Agreed, that's investing 101. As I said originally, I'm not looking to speculate on higher Btc/USD prices (that bubble has already popped anyway) I'm looking beyond that and I see Bitcoin and it's brethren (i.e Litecoin) as alternative currencies that will probably be trivialized by the...

    Where's all the discussions of Gold and Silver investing?

    INVESTING 
    Gold senior producers are cheaper now than at their October 2008 lows. After the friday crash I analyzed a bunch, they were all trading at lower P/E's, earning more EPS and paying out higher dividends now than in October 2008, all despite having their shares out increase and having their...

    Are You Profiting off the BITCOIN wave?

    HOT! INVESTING 
    I like Bitcoin and what it represents, but I'm not planning on speculating in the price movements. A few weeks ago I enabled Bitcoin payments for one of my web services companies and plan to accumulate that way.

    Somebody says MJ Demarco is a fraud / scam

    HOT! 
    Was it Brian Tracey who said "Luck is where opportunity meets preparedness" ? Most people don't recognize opportunity staring them in the face and most people aren't prepared for it if they did. Everybody gets their share of good luck and bad, that's life. It's what you do with that luck that...

    What would you make of this e-mail (concerns domain names)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    It's a total scam, trust me. I see dozens of these, my customers see hundreds. They are just mining the whois database and trying to get you to register similar names to what you already own in crappy TLDs in other countries.

    Quitting coffee for the last f-ing time goddammit.

    I've quit coffee cold turkey and I'm not going that route again, in fact I can't, I need to be able to function over the next week. Fortunately this is one time I can taper down: smaller sizes, starting to mix with herbal coffee (teecino) in greater proportions, and right away cutting out one...

    The Cyprus Situation

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I have land in another country (bunch of us building our kind of "Galt's Gulch"), a have been stockpiling gold and silver since 1999, married to a national of another country that automatically confers citizenship on me (time to start working on that passport). My web services business is going...

    The Cyprus Situation

    Marc Faber said it best in his March GloomBoomDoom report: "The unfortunate reality is in many areas those who produce for a living are now outnumbered by those who vote for a living".

    The Cyprus Situation

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Well there's gold and silver. I can't see them not going up (well the reality is that it's not the precious metals going up, its the currencies going down) - as long as every government is averse to austerity and willing to "print strong". BUT. I fear long term there will be some serious...

    The Cyprus Situation

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I am happy to report that I have no idea who you're talking about :) (Blake Shelton and Vanessa Marcil) But I think about this stuff all the time. I lose sleep over it. We're a long way off up here in Canada, but then again, we're overdue for a meltdown because we missed the last one, and our...

    The Cyprus Situation

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I believe the Cyprus situation is a bigger deal than the mainstream media gives it credit for. This is (to me) on par with 2006 when Bear Stearns had a failed bond auction - which was commented on then dismissed, not treated as anything big. But it turned out to be the first signpost on the road...

    The one percent - documentary

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I'm watching it now, lots of food for thought. I think a big part of the problem with wealth inequality is that as you get closer to the political center, you get more protection from the free market. In other words, losses are socialized while gains privatized. Capitalism works, as do free...
