I wonder if TC was owned 100% by Arrington. That would be a big check in the mail. Hope the rest of the writers there get some dough.

For all we know, it could be in space, they could be heavily magnetized, 100m/s wind, .5 CoF in the pulleys, the rope could stretch, and the system could be traveling near the speed of light.

Its not as bad as taking the MySpace CEO position, but what would Digg's CEO do to really grow a business like that? Could it ever be a $100M+ revenue, profitable company for the long term? They have taken $40M in funding, have 50+ employee

You have to take the much longer view when you talk about the merits of investing pensions or SS in stocks. The compounding affects of a broad S&P portfolio will destroy an all bond portfolio in a 20-30 time frame. And now that we are p

This guy and I'm sure a lot of others could be pretty well off if there was some type of rural co-op they could live and work on. It could save a lot of money and probably help these people a lot by getting them out of the city.
