    Hyperinflation starting? What's happening in your area? Post your ground reports.

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Here are my recommendations based on work I've put into building my emergency stash which is currently about a 4 month supply for my household of 2 adults plus dog: - buying what you actually eat is a great idea so you can rotate stock in and out before expiration dates. I think it would be...

    Age old debate: Mac VS Microsoft PC

    HOT! CHAT 
    I switched from PC/windows to mac laptop and iMacs back in 2008. On occasion I've considered going back but the thing that keeps me in with apple is the mileage I can get from the hardware. For me, software limitations in areas such as business apps are offset by the longevity of the devices.

    Is it possible to invade the United States?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Oh. My apologies, I'm just armchair quarterbacking it here. Didn't realize I was dealing with a domestic security expert.

    Is it possible to invade the United States?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    There's a difference between citizens from Mexico and El Salvador etc. entering the country, and a land invasion by a foreign governmental power and its military which it seems what OP is talking about. Over half the US border is coastline with thousands of miles of ocean on either side...

    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)

    HOT! CRYPTO 
    They didn't actually pivot away from their previous products and services, they still have those. They are basically just treating bitcoin as corporate treasuries and they invested their own profits. Before they did it they announced the plan to shareholders and offered to repurchase shares...

    (update) social security issues

    OFF-TOPIC RANT 
    It appears that you or your parents either didn't understand the SSI rules about income limits, or deliberately didn't ask questions so you could keep collecting benefits you weren't entitled to. The way you "get out of this issue" with regards to the pressure from your mom is to be assertive...

    Is a market crash coming? Or massive hyper-inflation?

    HOT! 
    First you said "basic condo" then you change it to you can't afford a 3 bd 2 bath condo. Yes, RE prices may be inflated but many people can't afford multiple bedrooms and baths in their first property - and that is nothing new.

    HOT! 
    Which of these other diseases have overwhelmed healthcare systems across the globe? When has there been a massive spike in symptomatic patients in a short time period (1-2 months) during which there weren't enough resources to provide care for all of those patients? Or are you just being...

    I don't know about "less lethal" A 2% death rate in 200,000 cases is much more lethal than a 30% death rate in 3000 cases.

    Job Offer After College - $17 an hour - Demotivated, should I take it?

    FTE 
    How long you can keep looking before you have to take something? I don't know what your expectations are about how long a job search should last, but a month is barely beginning a job search IMO.

    Alcoholic housmate needs to go

    PEOPLE 
    This could be illegal and create more problems even if it seems like "a good reason". Getting belligerent and making a scene doesn't remove a tenant's rights. Since tenant is a semi-nightmare already with the potential to become an even bigger nightmare for OP, I would think about consulting...

    What kind of mattress do you own?

    Stay away from Sweda. 15 months after buying ours and having the defective initial unit replaced under warranty, we are now cutting losses with the replacement unit and will be mattress shopping again soon.

    Do you have health insurance?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    As said earlier, the federal penalties for not having coverage will be dropped. The only "coming after you" that the government will do is a fine at tax time for not having coverage. If you're healthy and manage go the whole year without incurring medical expenses or ending up in an ER, it...

    Everybody seems to want to do high ticket video courses or youtube. What about live courses offered within a defined time period to a limited group? Obviously doesn't have the scale potential of video courses you record once, but it's still repeatable and the value differentiation is your...

    Note the grammar and diction It's as if there are two people writing these posts. Does the book also jump around stylistically like this?

    MARKETING 
    You dropped out, you didn't get the degree, and the book is on "brutal truths" about degrees and jobs? If you're doing anything more in your book than simply copying other people's books and ideas, it's definitely not being conveyed here.

    Fiance is calling my business "his/our" business, threatening to sue me

    HOT! 
    Oh. If that alone isn't a giant red flag, I don't know what else would be There may be more to this story, but it seems everyone else who has responded in this thread is rightfully more concerned about you personally than your business. I hope you can find whatever support or help to cut your...
