honestly, it's not my problem and I don't care what they do as long as I don't get stuck with the bill.

you are probably being sarcastic, but as someone in their late 20s, I do not believe I will every get a social security payout. either the age requirements will keep getting pushed back as people live longer or the whole program will be abo

the obvious unasked question that article doesn't quite get around to either asking or answering is, if not college, than what? the article waves off this question by saying that there is no single solution for everybody. it's as

again, we're arguing in circles because we are conceptualizing the analogies differently. our definitions of "career" are different. oh well.

I didn't realize it before, but this new guideline is probably targeting people exactly like myself. likely why I only have 40 some karma after however many years I've been on here. so I guess I'll go back to lurking, since I

Interesting that you perceive this as "gratuitous negativity" as that was not my intention. answers to your questions: 1) pointing out that you shouldn't always believe those in positions of power, especially when they are at

so says the censor, so it must be true.

by ryanx435 12y ago
look, I get it. everything has a starting point. (you decide what career you want) then an early game phase. (you go to school to get a degree) than a midgame phase. (you start work and collect paychecks during your career) than an end game

by ryanx435 12y ago
right. the end game is before the end of the games. we're on the same page on that. disconnect on our understandings is that I didn't define the game ending criteria for each example. in chess, it's either a checkmate or a

>> there's a defined early game, a midgame and endgame. all things with defined start and finish criteria can be conceptualized this way. careers: education is early game setting you up for success, job/career is midgame, re

trye, but the importance of the two criteria aren't weighted the same. plus he isn't doubling down on the same bet: he's changing the new bet to be more in his favor, so the additional 100,000 is actually worth less than the

I know. sorry, I probably wasn't clear: it doesn't matter if he takes another bet or not, what matters is that he wishes that he would have had more restrictive requirements for who is able to accept his bet. the logic being that,

Ha ha oh man, sam. seriously: do you think about what you post at all before you hit submit? you wanted to have a discussion behind closed doors before announcing this to the entire world? ok, that's fine, but that begs the question &q

moving the goal posts? poor tactical decision, sam. you've just undermined your whole position. before, with the open definition of VC, it expressed a high confidence in your bet. now, by limiting the pool of potential bet takers, you

my experience is the opposite: there is a bunch of vc money available. the problem is that it is hard to find because there isn't much infrastructure set up for initial introductions, like in the valley. there is no easy way for a star

when we do project cost estimations at the large medical device development company I work at, we use $15,000 per person month. so to answer your question, 10 people would cost $150,000. so this just further proves your point that some larg
