My opinion is just of an amateur, but I think way too many wealthy people are learning that it is way safer AND lucrative to use their wealth to buy property to "rent" out or to flip. It IS VERY safe and lucrative than investing i

The scary thing is some may hold up Google/Facebook/Twitter as the standard of the internet (without even being conscious of it). Guess I'm not that young now, knowing what the internet was supposed to be in the beginning.

You are preaching to the choir brother. I am feeling the exact same sentiment more strongly every day. In the past, working for a corporation meant some kind of loyalty in return, resulting in pension or still keeping you on payroll even if

Welcome to lobbying ver, 2.0. Instead of giving cash bribe, bribe with cushy jobs with high salary and no real responsibility, since no one would expect a lawyer to understand what even to delegate to members of IT security team.
