I think reality has catched up with a lot of what RDPD is about, namely buying real estate properties and then letting others rent them, when the housing and credit markets crashed. The one good lesson from the book now seems to be that you

In 2001, 1.1 billion people had consumption levels below $1 a day and 2.7 billion lived on less than $2 a day. When you're living with such an income, you're probably starving and hoping you make it through another week. Even if it were po

You can click through on referring domains to see the exact URL, but the URL parameters, which are often relevant/useful, aren't shown. For example: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=461131 would show up as: http://news.ycombinator.com

Like in any crowded business, you have to have an edge to succeed. There are tens, if not hundreds, of thousands hosting providers out there, so competition is gonna be very though. However, if you already have a big client list (say, as a
