    I closed an LGBT clothing site while it was doing well (I'm not LGBT)! Haha

    IDEA 
    Why not reopen it for 3 - 6 months, get a nice track record of sales/profits, and then sell it? I don't know what your numbers are/were, but you could have thrown away $50,000 or some other sum of money that might make a huge difference in your life going forward. The LGBT+ community has...

    If you're not in a position to buy hard assets, then the best thing you can do is build a highly-demanded skill -- your skill value in the marketplace should inflate with prices.

    Yup that's my impression. Assets are inflating, from stocks, to housing, to food. Nothing has gone down despite reports. My insurance has skyrocketed, from health insurance, car insurance, to home insurance to biz insurance; I think the total annual bill is $40,000.

    What is YOUR Escape Number?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Not really talking about physical pennies. A one dollar bill is one hundred pennies. I think anyone can "save" 1 buck and if they can, they are 100 steps closer.

    Question: What's the point of asking if something is available if you just turn around and disappear? I'm trying to sell a working dryer because I don't want to bother moving it, and every inquiry is "Is this still available?" and then a prompt disappearance. I get 2 per day. Is anyone...

    Substack or X's article feature for long-form content?

    MARKETING 
    As always with any platform, this is a huge drawback as you don't own the list and can't directly push to them other than platform access. Worldwide, with all my language translations, I've quite likely sold 2,000,000 books. But Amazon and my publishers have access to the client list, not me...

    What is YOUR Escape Number?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Here's a simple strategy anyone can use when dealing with large numbers like this... If your escape number is $20M, transform it into its smallest parts. That means your new escape is 20,000,000,000 pennies, or 2 Billion pennies. Now, take $1 and put it into a jar, savings account, or an...

    Substack or X's article feature for long-form content?

    MARKETING 
    How did the article do on X? I got a feeling X is going to prioritize Article content, so it might be something you can expose as an early adopter.

    ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: BUCKET LIST ITEM—It only took me 35+ years but I finally saw Journey in concert (VIP 9th row center!) IMO, one of the best rock bands to ever play in the last century. Two band members are in their 70s and its amazing that they could still put on quite a show. It was sold...

    Question about a certain type of mansion

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Assume 15M Euro or more unless you buy some broken down castle. Just expect a large number, then move on from there, there is no sense in wasting a lot of mental energy on this. Just know you have bold expectations and then start working a plan from there, one day at a time.

    One Day As An Erotic Writer And I'm Already Popular - Why Can't It always Be This Way?

    And therein lies the divergence. What you believe in, and what I believe in, do not agree. Beliefs precede decisions. If one believes they can fly, they jump off a cliff. As a former practicing Christian for 25 years, I completely understand that we need to align our beliefs with actions. I...

    Your Best and Worse Defenses for Inflation...

    NOTABLE! INVESTING 
    Inflation is still running hot, and if you look at prices on the ground, it is pretty clear. Janet Yellen recently stated she regretted using the statement "transitory" to describe inflation and its plight -- as if the deeply sheltered bureaucrat took time to reflect on the real prices on the...
