Actually I didn't say that. Their GDP is artifically high due to oil profits and tiny population. In practice it is still a stage Blue country in many ways. Because Europe is stage Greenish. Cause FIFA is stage Orange. I got no problem with your position. Boycott away.

Doctor can give you a single pill, you take the pill once, it wipes out all fungus in on the body. Forget what it's called. Or just use over-the-counter creams.

It's not hard. Just let it go. You have to actually let it go. You aren't doing that. See my video on; The Power Of Letting Go

Yeah, but how many of those workers die when building non-FIFA projects? I think this is less of a FIFA problem then a problem with how construction is done in the Middle East. They have low standards across the board. These are not 1st world democracies. So you have to take that into account. The reality is that life in 3rd world countries is pretty cheap. It's always been that way. That's how poverty works.

Jeff Bezos provides more value cause he is richer. No one denies Elon Musk provides lots of value. The issue is that the value he extracts is grossly disproportional. Elon Musk only paid 3% of his wealth in taxes.

Not a good strategy. Firstly, you will require far more than $1M investments to actually live off it, after taxes, inflation, etc. And your investments could actually lose you money. You are assuming you would make good investments, which is a bad assumption. And finally, your whole strategy is just one of leeching rather than providing value to the world, therefore you are very likely to fail. And even if you succeed, you will not be satisfied.

Or... maybe, just maybe, some people here have common sense. Don't overlook the possibility that you don't know what you're talking about.

They wouldn't even have a runway for it.

If you look deep enough, you will find horrible things in every industry you consume productions from. This is just part of how global stage Orange capitalism works. I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying it's hard to enjoy life if you insist on moral purity. You might as well move to the woods because any major corporation does evil stuff.

World cup is the only sport I watch. But yeah... I understand why you'd want to boycott it. It is a super corrupt. FIFA is a grift.

It's sorta the opposite. Being a perfectionist I tend to focus on the things I did wrong or could have done better or have yet to do. I am rarely satisfied with my own work because I have ridiculously high standards.

How do people with one eye tie in with Spiral Dynamics?

Just decide to stop doing it. And visualize yourself every day having the urge, but then letting it go and not acting on it, not needing the satisfaction.

You will never go on a date with a guy you're not open to sleeping with. The attraction has already been settled. Now it's about building rapport and him not being a psycho.

You forgot: Weather balloons Swamp gases

@Vynce Yes

If she shows up to a date at all, she wants sex. But only if you can make it not awkward and not creepy. A woman who won't have sex with you will not show up on a first date.

Pretty much. Maybe some very strategic and targeted interventions with humanitarian aid, technology, medicine, etc. But we cannot solve their problems for them.

Yes. I've spoken about this before. I don't know what Martin's state is, I suspect it is far less than he assumes it to be, and his case is not generally applicable. For the vast majority of people it will not work. This much is clear.

@tatsumaru You're speaking of things you aren't conscious of.

I thought the Cyberpunk story was how to sell a gold-plated turd to your fans Consider that death is a healthy part of life. Like reinstalling your OS.

If she says No then you stop. It's not complicated. Go for a hard No. Make her reject you or accept you. It's pretty obvious if she doesn't want you.

Help can only be given to those who are ready for it.

You will get your head chopped off before you reach them. The entire state is run by cartels and mafias. All the little people have tribal and mafia alliances so they don't get killed. A mafia's job is to not let anyone circumvent them. You will give money to a little person and the mafia will come and take it from him by threatening to cut off his dick. Everyone in town will know when someone is given foreign money is.
