  1. This sounds like Facebook fake news gossip. "My Mom heard..." If you're gonna say stuff like this, provide legit sources.
  2. Trust me, once you earn $1 million, you will no longer be satisfied with living on $40k year. $1 mil is not as much money as you think. What are you gonna do on those years when the market crashes? You gonna be selling your stock as half value just to get your $40k? To me financial independence means that your income doesn't come from a boss who controls how much you can make, and if you earn enough to pay all your bills and have some left over for cushion.
  3. Wealth Tax! Enough with the income tax BS. Tax the wealth! Rich people don't have incomes.
  4. Obviously. But that's the whole problem. Billionaires are allowed to earn zero income and gain massive wealth through stocks without paying a cent. This needs to be better regulated. It's ridiculous that an average person has to pay 25% of their yearly profits to the government but a billionaire gets away with 3%.
  5. Lol Let's see what tune you sing after your mother is raped and needs to report it to the police who then catch the rapist.
  6. I do feel pride about various parts of my work though. But it's not a feeling I linger on very much because there's so much left to do.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. They wouldn't even have a runway for it.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. How do people with one eye tie in with Spiral Dynamics?
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. You forgot: Weather balloons Swamp gases
  22. 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.
