Getting rich by not doing anything? Do you think bring a landlord is easy? Aren’t property owners providing housing to tenants which the tenants aren’t responsible for? Providing housing so tenants don’t have to come up with down payments o

I’d suggest considering why you think scaling fast is a “startup” idea and not just a profitable business tactic. In my case scaling fast meant bringing on 3-4 subs who could knock out a standardized set of deliverables that I created and t

A civilization advanced enough to launch interstellar probes and make plans on a 20k year timescale (10k years for the probe to get here, 10k years for them to get here) has no use whatsoever for the paltry resources in our solar system. In
