  • Rally for Net Neutrality

    Time is running out: The FCC will vote on Net Neutrality on Dec. 14 “If net neutrality in is taken away, everyone will pay more, service will cease to be universal, the poor will lose something they need more than ever, and some lobbyists will be very happy.” – Seth Godin One of the main reasons Continue reading

  • Clock collector

    A clock collector is nothing without his clocks Without his clocks, his title would be negligible and his goals would be diminished But clocks generally aren’t as valued by the common laymen We use clocks for its purpose, not for its intrinsic or inherent value that the clock collector sees Clocks are nothing without the Continue reading

  • Bumblebees are too fat

    Bumblebees are too fat

    In 1934, some French scientist proved that bumblebees could not fly. It had something to do with aerodynamics and wing flap speed…and the fact that the bumblebee was simply too fat, and had too small wings. But wait…they can… If you were to use empirical data, it is technically possible to prove that the bumblebee Continue reading

    Another great insight from Tim Ferriss is to ask yourself this question: What if this were easy? If you have a “difficult” venture, or obstacle, or project you want to complete, and you are not sure if it is “possible”, then ask yourself that question. If you can answer that question, then it’s not as Continue reading

  • Systems & Options

    Rules are strict and rigid. They remain stagnant, and are set to accomplish only one thing, like 1) Do not touch, 2) No soliciting, 3) You must subscribe to this blog. Rules are boring, and you are meant to follow them, even though they have only one option. And when you break the rule, everyone Continue reading

  • Fiat money

    There is no inherent or intrinsic value in our currency. Paper money has no worth besides the fact that the government has labelled a $5 bill to have the purchasing power of a MacDonald’s happy meal. It’s “fiat”, the Latin word that means “it shall be”, or I like to simply say as “fake” The only Continue reading
