    CRYPTOCURRENCY 101: Beginners Guide to Buying, Selling & Storing Bitcoin, Ethereum Etc...

    CRYPTO INVESTING HOT! 
    Couldn't agree more. That's why I sold half my Bitcoin (which I bought at $300 per BTC a few years ago, and, until recently, had forgotten that I even owned them) when I saw the current ridiculous prices. The other half I'll keep for speculation and for shopping at Overstock :-) I think the...

    CRYPTO INVESTING HOT! 
    Thank you, sir. It was only because of your post that it occurred to me to check my old bitcoins and sell them. It was super easy to open a Coinbase account, transfer my coins, and sell some of it. I confirmed this morning that the proceeds got properly deposited in my linked bank account...

    Making Your Bed

    MINDSET RANT 
    I consider my living space to be an extension of my inner world. When there's clutter in my living space, my mind feels cluttered and disorganized as well. When my living space is clean, spacious, and well-organized, my energy and productivity soar. A messy bed doesn't help in this regard...

    Amazon purchased Whole Foods for $13.7 Billion

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I'm just guessing here, but I think the intent might be to use the brick & mortar Whole Foods locations in the same way as Amazon Lockers, where people go to pick up groceries that were purchase online. Customers may be more willing to try online grocery shopping if they know that they can go...

    CRYPTO INVESTING HOT! 
    I have a few bitcoins that I bought several years ago (and totally forgot about until I saw the recent price action). I only have about 3.5 BTC, but I want to cash out on at least half of it because I smell a big fat bubble brewing. Does Coinbase let you sell your BTC as easily as they let you...

    Value investing - your take on this?

    INVESTING 
    For me, value alone is never a good enough reason to invest in a stock. The upside potential from the difference between perceived intrinsic value versus market value is seldom large enough to justify placing the bet. Value discrepancy is more of just an added bonus that I look for when...

    Value investing - your take on this?

    INVESTING 
    Everything you say is 100% correct and I agree with it all, but your post doesn't seem to offer anything of value (no pun intended) relative to the original poster's question, which was in regards to value investing in the financial markets, rather than in some post-apocalyptic world after a...

    How do I raise Unscripted/Fastlane kids?

    PEOPLE 
    I think you're already leading by example based on the mere fact that they're seeing you working your way into the Fastlane (even if you're not there yet). I don't think SCRIPTED kids come out of UNSCRIPTED parents. It's much harder to get UNSCRIPTED kids out of SCRIPTED parents, but you...

    Execution vs Preparation... my struggle revealed

    I totally agree regarding Chapters 38 and 39. It was so liberating to hear that it's totally OK to just "wing it" and how "you don't know what you need to know until you know." I used to think 20 steps ahead and get discouraged. I now realize that I only need to figure out the one step that's...

    Higher matematics and business

    I have a masters in applied mathematics from a prestigious business school and how much do I use it in business? ZERO. The only benefit of high level math is that it's such strenuous mental gymnastics that your brain muscle becomes permanently stronger after having gone through it, and I'm...

    3 Years in 3 months Rule in a "Hypothetical" Bear Bond Market

    INVESTING 
    Personally, I'm only interested in owning the creme de la creme. If dividends get cut or even just stagnate for too long, I close the position and roll the proceeds into my other holdings. Even if dividends have not (yet) stagnated or declined, it's not that difficult to foresee sustainability...

    3 Years in 3 months Rule in a "Hypothetical" Bear Bond Market

    INVESTING 
    Depending on circumstances, there are times when I buy protective put options on my income-generating positions. I especially like employing this strategy when my underlying position gains significantly. For example, suppose I bought 100 shares of a particular stock at $100 per share and the...

    What would YOU like to learn about real estate investing?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Brandon, First off, thank you for your post and your willingness to share your knowledge and experience with us. One big question I've always had regarding rental real estate is: To what extent is it feasible to own a rental property in a different city/state from where you live? For the...

    I've messed up

    Well, rethinking your whole life might be one option, but a better option might be to take the simple lesson you learned, find a new project, and this time do adequate research to validate your idea by getting out there and talking to people :-)
