    How to Build A Million Download Per Month Podcast (AND WHY)

    EXECUTION 
    Love what you're doing! Attention is the internet's scarce resource and once you're at scale there should be plenty of opportunities to monetize. How do you think about the mix of episodes in which you talk about your own experience vs. inviting a guest? Do you test downloads/feedback to the...

    Best ROI for Retiree with $200k cash

    INVESTING 
    That's a tough one. If you're not willing to put in any work you are left with few options. If you are looking for hands-off low-risk income I would probably go for something like the DoubleLine Total Return Fund. His worst enemy is inflation - cost of food, healthcare, repairs. You would...

    I'm Back, I Guess (WTF Happened?)

    INTRO 
    So I'm not exactly a brand new member but I have not been active for a while. I recently found myself scribbling down ideas, looking to make some changes to my Slowlane life. Scribbling away I remembered that I used to be part of this community. Well, here I am again. Thanks to you MJ - what an...

    All I'm asking is 6%. Not 15%, not 12%. Just give me 6%

    Thanks, that's very helpful. Can you give us an idea of how often these loans blow up and how often you had to take a loss?

    Which market are you in (geography)? If these guys are experienced investors why don't they put a mortgage on the property instead of borrowing at 15%?

    Davidil, I don't mean to bust your dreams but if you think an investment banker's primary goal is to protect your monies, you're a little off the track. "These guys are going to build for me a capital protected (!!!) portfolio that will make me at least 8%-9% a year. If I add a little risk, I...

    Occupy Wallstreet Thoughts

    HOT! 
    Glad I don't live on Wall St. anymore. Heard it was a real hassle for residents in the beginning (though I think the cops forced the protesters to move down a few blocks).

    EXECUTION 
    Looks good, congratulations on your progress! Watch out for those sidebars, they take up a ton of space and there's a 'secondary sidebar' widget activated but it just shows the template/dummy page. I'd also work on focus/user experience. You cover everything from stocks through macro/economy...

    Carlos Slim Disses Gates’ And Buffett Billion Dollar Donations

    EXECUTION HOT! 
    I would look at it more as a redistribution of the wealth to broader society. Not saying that non-profits are generally an efficient vehicle to achieve goals but they certainly don't lead to further accumulation of wealth in the hands of those who inherited through compounding of returns on...

    Carlos Slim Disses Gates’ And Buffett Billion Dollar Donations

    EXECUTION HOT! 
    Ridiculous. The point is that _after your death_, you can't build another Microsoft. And certainly not another monopoly telcom company.. How exactly is giving your money to your heirs better for society than giving it to science, healthcare, education etc.? You gotta be kidding.

    Career: Hedge Fund/Portfolio Management Vs entrepreneurship

    While it's true that Renaissance and its army of uber-phds make big coin, it's hardly evidence that having and advanced degree or phd is a prerequisite to run a successful hedge fund. Perhaps to run a successful quant fund. Before founding or joining a fund, most worked either in trading or...

    If the American Dream is dead...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    The U.S. is the world's largest economy. I don't see many reasons not to start your career or business in this country (though admittedly there are some).

    Your First 100 Million by Dan Pena

    BOOKS 
    Ok, let me repeat: her strategy was "making leveraged acquisitions of trailer parks". I am fairly confident (though admittedly I don't know) that building her business on too much leverage or overpaying for assets was one of or the main reason behind her business goin belly up. Dan likes...
