I remember when Jim Cramer was saying "Bear Stearns is fine. These people who say Bear Stearns is failing are crazy." and then Bear Stearns crashed 10 minutes later. I wish I could fuck up as bad as Jim Cramer does all the time and still h

I don't want to spend all the good years of my life living exactly like a rat doing whatever gymnastics get me enough pellets (dollars) to survive. I'd rather say "fuck that" and do what I want. It's not a lack of money that would make me

401K? To get rich. Fuck that shit. How about: "Never work at a job with a 401K!" as a rule for how to get rich. Since your alternatives will then be to be poor and miserable or get really rich, you will be more motivated. Personally, I

Strictly speaking, I don't need to. With just logic: Consider: "Ideas are worthless without execution." Assume it is true. It's an idea, so it refers to itself, and it is only worthwhile with execution. Since it is not executable, then

It's so funny watching you guys talk about how worthless ideas are. Maybe the relationship between starting shitty web companies, obsessing about hits, ads, and freemium accounts, and thinking ideas are worthless tells us more about the k
