True, but people do that about a lot of things. People might become a dentist but then start to hate it, but the $$$ is too good and how is he or she going to start as a newspaper cartoonist for $13,000 per year because that is their intere

As Flatcircle states, China has a serious demographics problem, as does Russia. Extremely serious. A huge number of women have just hit 40-years-old, so they can not longer have children. The one-child policy means there are hardly any chil

Even worse than that. Your children will have 1/2, or .5, of your DNA. Your grandchildren will have .25, great-grandchildren will have .125, then .0625....after 10 generations (about 300 years), your descendents will have 0.000977 of y

We are all different. I decided to not have children and it was the absolute best decision of my life. I would just have hated to have had children. For many reasons, not just one. I've known it from a very young age, about 13 or 14 ye

Because marketing is way different than being a musician. Completely different skill set. There is the wrong saying that is, "If you build it, they will come." Wrong-o. You have to create drip email marketing campaigns, blogs, pic

I never had children because if I got divorced, I would go from seeing them every day, to only 2 weekends (4 days) per month. I've always known that it would kill me if that happened, and the solitary only way to prevent that is to not

If they have children, then in a divorce, in 95% of the cases, they do not get custody. They see their children 2 weekends (4 days) per month instead of every day. This is the single reason that I never had kids. This would kill me. Courts

OK, thanks - all great points. This is a lot more info, not directly related to the conversation, but directly affects what is happening in tech and the rest of China's economy, and why their tech may still fail. One thing I'm rea

Hi. I have made over 100,000 cold calls to small businesses over the years. It works. The issue is the discipline, and time. I can call 200-250 calls per day maximum, which breaks down to 25 calls per hour, 12.5 per half hour, 6.25 per 15 m

I'm older, and I have always thought likewise, even when young. However, if a person IS older and wise, it is very much in a younger person's best interests to find someone like that and learn from them - have a mentor. Being you

This is long - sorry. I've read about this, and chip manufacturing is not like other manufacturing. It's like when other places try to duplicate Silicon Valley, or Hollywood. I've read about this for 40 years, yet no one has

Personally, my own answer is there is no income bracket to buy designer clothing and all that. Why would one want to? Low self-esteem and wants everyone to see that they have money? This is the problem for many people - called lifestyle cr

What's the best way for someone who doesn't have a finace degree from Harvard or computer science degree from Sanford do to make it to that certain amount of money you speak of- if someone has a high school education? What are the

OK, but all I see is how companies hiring managers are looking to hire females and minorities - anyone but white men, basically. I read this everywhere, it is ubiquitous how companies seek out women and POC. Recently, a law was passed in Ca

I've never heard of this before. A substantial net worth is known as wealthy. Net worth is defined as the current value of one's assets less liabilities. Having a billion dollars in one's bank account and zero liabilities is

Regular iron-clad dedication to exercise cures many ills. For me, exercise kills my appetite for garbage food, cures me of snaking. The "feel good" hormones - endorphin, seratonin, oxytocin, dopamine - are released during exercise

huh...that's weird. I guess it depends on where one goes to school. This for sure is not what I got out of my business classes. Most were how to keep employees, even low-wage employees, how to make them happy despite low wages... I thi

Meh. I read about neural networking in the 1990s, and it has been around as a concept from the 1940s. in 1943, Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts created a computational model for neural networks. One approach focused on biological processe

Yeah, I have a problem with that. This is a hyperbolic example to make a point -> What happens if a state passes a law that has a mandatory death penalty for people who are left-handed, and our new Supreme Court justices say it is A-OK w

This is kind of a silly article to me. It is obvious that nobody can be 100% rational. It is not even rational to think that one can be rational all the time. I've also been in sales a long time, and it is a given that people make de

I can tell you as an end-user, linux is very difficult. It does not have to be. I am saying this as a person with a computer science degree and worked in the field for a while, although I no longer do. My point being is that I have more ex

I've been hearing the same exact thing for 40 years now, about how the economy is going to burst. Sooner or later, someone is going to be right. I predicted it, too. I saw it coming the exact minute the government starting giving out
