    The road to wealth is simple: Drive a crappy car

    Curious to know what make/model it is so I can find a similar deal next time I need a car.

    Cyrptocurrency news: Facebook launches Libra

    I mentioned that to him and it may be true for small businesses but big brands don't really care that much. Big ad budgets to spend

    I have a friend in advertising. The advertisers don't even care b/c ultimately they charge their own clients. So the more clicks, the better the advertisers look.

    Cyrptocurrency news: Facebook launches Libra

    HOT! INVESTING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    You're right. If they monetize and pay you for your engagement, your likes, your time spent on FB, and you can buy shit, then it's a kind of socialism/communism using a private company. People wasting their life and getting paid for it. That's idiocracy. Great :)

    More control from this guy. Thanks but no thanks. They'll end up being like the Chinese gov like a social scoring system and they'll block you from buying things.

    Influencer never had Control

    I don't understand how a former McDonald employee and self described loser can become an influencer. I'm only influenced by people who've mastered a skillset or a domain not someone that's mastered taking cell phone video.

    Paranoia and Social Anxieties Are Killing My Fastlane Dreams

    MINDSET 
    I was super skinny too without your issue though. I think it's important to understand that our body and how we perceive it may get in the way. EDMR for me has replaced some negative images in my brain related to that. It's silly but even though I know the corrected image is wrong and is not my...

    Paranoia and Social Anxieties Are Killing My Fastlane Dreams

    MINDSET 
    I can relate to some of your stuff, especially the feeling like a child. I personally have a shrink and doing EDMR has helped me tremendously. I was a tiny kid and was always told I couldn't do things bc I was too small and too fragile. Some images stuck in my brain were getting in the way and...

    The Secret/Law Of Attraction. Anyone believe in it?

    RANT 
    I look at it this way. If it propels you to do things, change your energy, motivation, mindset, etc... it may simply increase the odds. Now if you think thinking without acting will do anything, I doubt it.

    If you could only pass on one life lesson to everyone on this forum, what would it be?

    So true. Always keep learning. Acquire new skills whether they make $$$ or not. Expand your horizons.

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Love everything people said above. My current life lesson is: most people are worried about their own life and problems, don't waste time thinking they're spending time judging or criticizing you. That's a tough one to escape when you've been raised by highly critical family members.

    Chronic Back Pain

    HEALTH 
    Not a doctor or not an expert by any means but I used to have some mild back pain as a young adult more frequently. I've played soccer, tennis and have done sports my whole life. My diet was poorer than now. So more constipated aka toxins were not evacuated often enough. I don't eat as much...

    Atomic Habits, by James Clear (Review & Discussion)

    HOT! 
    Love your summary. I agree will power is like energy, it's easy to run out of it. I have a treadmill in line of sight every day when I work and I use it for example. That's the environment even though I don't feel like getting on it (lack of will power.) I think the habit of visualizing and...

    Atomic Habits, by James Clear (Review & Discussion)

    HOT! 
    Exactly. It's all the stories that we have in our mind, good or bad. Some stories have a double edge sword. I tell myself I'm still a kid for example b/c of an individuation problem :) It's bad in a way but I also have a ton of energy, sometimes more than young adults despite being 20 years...

    I am listening to it. Really liking it. What struck me so far was the correlation between habits and identity.

    How to legally pay no taxes... possible?

    HOT! TAXES | REGS 
    I don't think it'd make any difference. Politicians are buddy buddy despite the show they're putting on. It's like 2 businesses that are supposed to compete but have some kind of common interests (e.g prices can't get too low). Their bread and butter is donations from big donors who expect tax...

    Please critique my exercise regimen

    HEALTH 
    Do whatever makes you feel good. Your body and mind should tell you. (There's even a point where exercise can make you depressed.) I hate lifting weights b/c i find it utterly boring. I personally think looking like a gorilla isn't appealing. I'd rather be svelte, agile with some core strength...

    How to legally pay no taxes... possible?

    HOT! TAXES | REGS 
    It won't happen but it would be awesome. It won't happen because the income and corporate taxes are what gives leverage to politicians to racket donors.
