    The coming recession

    HOT! INVESTING 
    When the gov gets involved, usually scarcity happens and so prices go up I am not denying the level of spending but the US has a social welfare state now that is almost comparable to European levels. The per capita spending in welfare is around 600 dollars a month vs 800 in France for...

    Too old to be an entrepreneur, a little late in the game at 35? I was sick for long time.

    HOT! 
    I don't think you're ever too old if you have a great idea. I'm almost 45 and am working on mine. Not easy to squeeze everything and find the time but age has nothing to do with that and is just a number. I've got more energy than some 20 year olds. (Just need my sleep though)

    Love it. My favorite software project I got to code for was investing and financial tools.

    Finished The Fastlane after listening to the audio tape

    I initially listened to the Fastlane on audio tape while driving but decided to buy the book to read since I pay attention to words on the written page more than through listening. Reading the book was a real pleasure, for MJ is a great writer. Obviously the content is of great value but it was...

    Taxes = Wakeup

    TAXES | REGS 
    I know but one has to look at their reality too. The reality defines people, not just thoughts. I'm not into some kind of new age "if you believe it'll happen" stuff.

    Taxes = Wakeup

    TAXES | REGS 
    Just did my taxes this weekend and after looking at numbers, the sad truth appeared: I'm a slow laner. I knew it already but taxes remind you of the sad truth. I work like a maniac, I pay uncle sam, I don't save enough... I'll keep working my project to change the trajectory.

    Headed to Phoenix for some INSPIRATION

    MINDSET RANT 
    Everyone's different. I used to say the same thing till I couldn't stand the SoCal sun burning my face every day and the lack of variety. I love nature's wrath in a way, clouds, lightnings, etc... as long as it doesn't create chaos. There's beauty in that too.

    YouTube Shooter and Scripted Mindset

    MINDSET 
    Result of a society whose political leaders use victimhood and promote entitlement as a way of life. We'll see more of it sadly because of that.

    Should I Drop Out of High School?

    HOT! 
    Only response to that question: WTF. Finish HS then skip college if you feel like it. Unless you go to college to study hard sciences and need labs, equipments, etc.... or things that you can't afford to teach yourself and that are actual skills (a craft) then I'm all for skipping college.

    GOLD! IDEA 
    Doesn't matter if it's sexy or not. Most of them are like a regular job exchanging your time for money.

    Interesting Podcast How I Built This

    That was my first one too. I loved it. What's struck me listening to it is that she was truly passionate and she didn't think about money. This is where she was a bit different than the Fastlane or Unscripted. Sometimes I wish I had more passion about the things I'm working on b/c that would...

    Does At WIll employment even mean anything?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I don't think at will and a notice period are mutually exclusive. One could have a contract with a notice period requirement. If you don't have any you can even quit right away technically.

    I'm 20 Years Old and Trying to Find an Important Answer

    You can't do things in Wix that you can do in Wordpress, especially if you need a lot of customization. Last time I checked Wix was pretty much for simple web pages.

    I'm 20 Years Old and Trying to Find an Important Answer

    INTRO 
    If you're committed to being a software developer, build something, build an app and while you do that learn to be great. That's who I became a software developer. And I'm still learning.

    Vegan / Vegetarians Only (Chat about lifestyle, opportunities, food, whatever...)

    NOTABLE! 
    I got hit by the same thing. I am convinced it is because seeing that meat makes us relate to our mortality. I have the same issue with violent movies now for example. I tried to go vegan but it wasn't doable for me. As a good French boy I grew up on cheese and I love my salami. I just decided...
