How fascinating that there are people making decisions about where to spend their money based on the race of the business owner(s). Anecdotally, growing up, I was always taught not to assess or judge people on such factors...certainly not t

"I'm surprised that they cannot capitalize on this data" They can capitalize on the data (to varying degrees) and it would be a missed opportunity if they don't. Knowing (quickly, thoroughly, and specifically) which busi

Has it been proven that those emails were real in the first place? I too was confused by the use of what appears to be coded language, but then thought to myself: wait, is what I am reading authentic?

"They aren't going to allow your company much margin if they can do even part of it themselves." Interesting observation. It reminds me of the myriad of products and services targeting bootstrapped/self-funded entreprene

Cool. I care about to also, though were this story published elsewhere never would I think 'gee why didn't the Times cover this?' Or the Journal, or the Chronicle, etc. - guess I am privileged enough to have bigger concerns.

"why didn't you tell us?!" Do you actually think anyone would notice if the Times did not publish this article? Couldn't the same thing then be said about any MSM publisher relating to all topics/content? "You

Good to see more people calling out the sensationalism and manipulation tactics that publishers deploy...not just the Times either. I've gotten to a point where if my spidey sense is tingling, I won't even click on link or read th

As a consumer, I am completely in agreement insofar as the benefits or receiving content via email medium vs. going on the web, esp. considering bloomberg does have a paywall at some point, autoplay ads, noise, etc. Comparatively, the user

I guess we all have our limits? Just wish the newsletter was more concise with the opp to dig deeper...found that just reading a segment at times drags on and gets interrupted/ incomplete. A better approach would be to either pull a si

I concur with zpeti’s sentiment that “I think the markets have been completely messed up by stimulus since 2008, and it's only getting worse.” And as you, Qasaur, say: “this erroneous monetary policy will only stop if politicians and c

Really enjoy Levine's stuff, but had to unsub from his newsletter because they are too long for me to keep up with.

Status symbol? Maybe for highschoolers, but if someone showed me this IRL, as an adult, and actually paid real money for such platitudes I would question their maturity level. What an exploitative model.

Thanks for sharing your reply/viewpoint. There is no correct single answer, but it's not so binary, I believe that self employment + entrepreneurship are underrated in the dynamic.

Feels like that sometimes, doesn't it? Then you find an employer in said technical profession who understands how their field has become inefficient at sourcing new employees and they seize on the opportunity to open the gate and let &

And how is the amount of "income" determined per person - based on what necessary expenses? Should news subscriptions be one of them?

That makes more sense.

"Can a derivative work be created from it?" Grey area, lived in it for a while and made some money there, but at the end of the day it depends on how the original creator feels about your derivative work - or you personally :)
