Life Lessons

I truly want to help people. If I didn't, I woudn't have begun my blog. I wouldn't have become an author. I may not be a success, but I am damnedsure not a failure. I just don't have a big enough lever with which to move the world, even if it is my own fault. Shit, I turned $1K in crypto into $180K in one month of day trading, manually, did I take the profit? Nope. I wanted a weekend off, it happened to be the weekend everything crashed. SO, I rage quit, took my 10K profit. Got scammed on some real world items that were valuable but, meh. You know how it is... One mans priceless is another mans worthless so you buy high sell low and try to make up the difference in volume... Story of my life. 

So.

#1 lesson

If someone contacts you trying to peddle you something either A you need but didnt begin shopping for, or B. you need but were too lazy to shop for... Well..  DO NOT give them your business. I got scammed by corinthian colleges because I had inherited a trust fund and my laywer said I needed schooling and a telemarketer from corinthians called me up and well, I was being lazy took them up on it. When I should have said "F You" and found something else. 

#2 lesson.

Friends. Some are the best friends you will ever have and you will never know it, others will be your worst friends and you will find out after they screw you over. Do yourself a favor and analyze all the angles of everything ok? If something CAN harm you, then you need you respond commensurately to the threat. 

#3 lesson

Question everything. Everyhing is not as it seems. You will know what I mean when you finally put this into practice. 

#4. Well, the justification for profit, is profit, so get busy! But you don't have to be a dick about it. It will cost you far less in the long run if you are generous to the people who helped you, than if you forget about them. As for the people who won't help you, or won't make good any agreement you've made with them, fuck them. Fuck them all. 

#5, good luck, take care of those who take care of you, do not incentivise the trolls and assholes who DGAF. 

This has been a public service announcement from a "noob" who's only got 300K skillpoints since 2007 after chipping out a couple of times. Actually...

#6... DO NOT CHIP ANYTING OUT, YOU WILL REGRET IT, I PROMISE.
