During my year at uni, there were about 12 girls out of the 120 cohort. Strangely, that also works out to 14%...

In some of the cases, the word translated 'fool' is the Hebrew word nabal which should better be translated as 'perverse.' Thus the verses which says, "The fool hath said in his heart there is no God, They are corrupt, they have done abom

Proverb traditionally attributed to the Chinese: He who knows and knows he knows, He is a wise man; seek him. He who knows and knows not he knows, He is asleep; wake him. He who knows not and knows he knows not, He is a child; teach him. H

A few hours ago, I made plans with my best friend to meet up Saturday and get some work done.

Perhaps, but I'd rather have that problem.

I think this is a good idea. Unfortunately, I don't have a laptop.

I find that I don't like to work at home: It's easy to get distracted, plus I value my privacy. It's almost 5; I'm waiting till everyone leaves, then doing my spreadsheet. I agree that the pressure will be good for you. Good luck, and keep

The flesh vs the Spirit. I've always loved the writings of Paul, even though I'm now an atheist.

Yes, my goal is too abstract. I know that I won't aim for Facebook or Google rich, but I haven't decided what exactly I want. Edit: Thanks for that John Carlton link. Love it!

I can't. It's my sister's. I want to get my own place in the next couple of months.

I think this is _great_ advice. It reminds me of Ramit Sethi's 'Conscious Spending' principle: Spend lavishly on what you value, cut ruthlessly from what you don't.

"Just like you're beginning to do now, in fact, by making this post." I was a bit reluctant to post-didn't want people to know I struggled. Maybe pride really is a deadly sin.

"You are probably trying to jump from zero to the most elegant solution." Oh god, yes. I realized recently that in practice, it's not done that way. Hard habit to break, though. I used to think that being smart meant that solutions were o

No-Kingston, Jamaica. Confession-I can't program! I can talk with you about it for hours, from calling conventions, concurrency methods. I started messing around in Python when I was about 14. But because I've never sat down and finished so

Wow. I haven't experienced a tenth of what you have. "Now we're 23 and smarter than the average person, technically and entreprenuerly aware, and impatient because we aren't where our 30+ year old friends are in life." Yes, yes, yes! I am

No, Kingston, Jamaica. I have to ask: Do you think marriage is/has been worth it? The only time I ever considered it was when I was a Christian, and even then my mind rebelled at the thought.

"I hope everyone actually does take offense to this: When I hear someone say they want to be filthy rich, I hear it as them saying they want to be a boring douche bag." Straw man. Nobody wants to be a boring douche bag. I agree with Ram

I've been giving it some thought as well. I don't want to be in the rat race at 40. But how much is enough? That's what I need to think about. Have you made a decision on what you're gonna do?

I don't really want money just for its own sake. The freedom, the possibilities are what I'm really after. And I think money makes that a lot easier.

As I wrote in another comment, I think there are competing forces within us.

Already had it in my Amazon wishlist, from researching this problem. I think I need to put this up on my wall. Thanks.

You're not being negative; you're being brutally honest. I'm the same way with others. It's needed. I've already started, but the gruntwork is like a Roman phalanx in my path. Guess I'll just have to shut up and fight. Excellent, helpful

Have you been lurking outside my bedroom window? I always swear that this is the last time. I hope today can be a turning point.
