    When a customer asks for references and you're a new company

    Ask the first ones if they want to be a reference customer, then use those. Give away free/cheap work for them. Its funny that 2 years ago when I started my current company, everyone asked for references. Now they dont ask at all, so it could be your attitude also. I figured its that for me at...

    Inherited $300k - need help making right decision and life path

    Why dont you just read yourself up on realestate? Then split the cash up in as many downpayments you can on as many apartments you can(other peoples money , the banks, will go down in value over the years, the properties you control will go up in value, rent will also go up). Starting with just...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Quote from my stepbrother when we met after a few years: "I always remembered you with all the books on programming."

    Day Trading Stocks : Progress Thread

    EXECUTION 
    Isn't he just risking just 2% of the 90%, since he puts in a stoploss at 2%. Can break off many deals, that later could shown better results. But thats his strategy. When I tested Forex, I put 10% equity in and a stoploss of 10% of that, so a bigger margin, since sometimes the trade fell a...

    A fastlaner was born

    You either have to patent it or market it well so everyone connects your business with the idea. I got some stolen, but do I care? No, they bankruptet shortly after, because they had just the idea, not the entire plan for the idea. How are you going to market it?

    iPhone 5 or Samsung Galaxy S3?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Its all about what you are used to. Apps are what differenciate phones these days. If you got an iPad, and got lots of apps, then you can have the same versions of the apps on your mobile at no extra cost on the iPhone. And it just works. I was against Apple products for a while as I was a...

    To put this strategy on steroids if the software is more general and offers people to solve specific tasks, I got a strategy after someone applied it to me.
