    QR codes in Oct 2023?

    MARKETING 
    A couple of years ago, I heard QR codes being mocked as an old-fashioned thing of the past. I think I am seeing a resurgence. Dunno. We are trying to decide if we should spend money advertising in a local print magazine, and we need a way to track the value of the ad spend. QR's directed to a...

    Rent Control

    As my wife and I age, we are looking for places to put capital that will produce somewhat passive income. We are most familiar with real estate, however I have an awful and worrisome itch of a concern. I worry that something like the following could happen, and I wonder how one might protect...

    Seeking Health Pool/Insurance - Actual experience?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    So, I am investigating changing from our current health insurance plan that costs over $18k a year for my wife and I, with a $10k deductible. I have heard great things about "pools" like "Christian Healthcare Ministries" but I am not a Christian and I won't lie on an application and say that I...

    REAL ESTATE 
    My wife and I are closing in on our dream of not having to work. We have various investments and speculations and stores of value, however, we are now interested in adding REITs to our portfolio. Our research has not shown us much actionable information. We find many stockbroker types, many...

    My concern about REAL crypto

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    When I say "real" crypto, I mean stuff like BTC, Monero etc. Meth and BTC currently both have value to some people, and this subjective value in the marketplace creates the "price." My concern is that in 5 years, once the central banks have their own centralized "cryptos" rolled out, both meth...

    MSM or Corporate Media?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I had often used the term Main Stream Media." Recently, in listening to Michael Malice, I have decided I am participating in "their" propaganda by using it. Michael challenges, "Are the ideas expressed mainstream? Of course not." 80% or more people generally agree about most stuff . THEY are...

    Recommended forum software for talk radio show listeners to engage?

    I recently started a radio show, it is pre-recorded, and I have learned that listener involvement is important. I want to encourage my audience to "join the conversation" by going to a link. FaceBook: Lot's of high IQ, savvy folks (like people who have read Snowden) don't like it, many refuse...

    Good "Talents" or "Job skills" etc to have during good times and bad

    For the bored among you, I would love some input. I am finishing an Appendix in my in-progress book with a list of good skills to have during bad times. For example, a mechanic will do better than a gender-differences public relations advisor in "real world" times. I just stated the below list...

    Preparedness - Survival

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Because many of my clients had questions, I recently wrote an article. I am not suggesting that we are experiencing "bad times" right now, or that we will anytime in the future. Some people have concerns, others evaluate risk differently. For those of you that are interested in preparedness...

    Small business (Mobile Windshield Repair) marketing fails & wins

    MARKETING 
    I used to have a mobile windshield repair business and made a bunch of mistakes. This thread is to help you not make the same. If your business is not windshield repair, you might still notice and appreciate some of my bonehead moves. Vehicle magnet signs: I started out with a lot of...

    INTRO 
    Hi all, my wife and I just finished listening to Unscripted, what a great book! As a Voluntaryist and an entrepreneur with non-conventional leanings, the book was a breath of fresh air. We started listening to it on a road trip as we left Fountain Hills AZ, where we had been staying at an...
