I'd like to put together a FAQ, or a general page for newbies that addresses the following items:

1) Frequently asked questions (questions that have been asked over and over)

-- Do I go to college?
-- Do I learn to code?
-- Where do I start?

2) Bad Questions

-- Is this Fastlane?
-- Will you mentor me?
-- How do I make $10 Million in 10 Years?
-- Is joining this MLM a good idea?

In your opinion, what's a "bad question" or a "repeated question"?

BTW, despite the cliche "there are no bad questions" I disagree. There are. Some questions are so bad they will reflect poorly on yourself. If a simple Google search would yield the answer, it's a bad question.

A bad question means you'd rather waste my time than yours to find out.

Fire away...
